Ryan Nugent-Hopkins is the latest member of the Edmonton Oilers to hit the ice at Rogers Place.
The Edmonton Oilers shared some footage of him working through some drills with teammates on the ice Thursday and him chatting at the bench alongside Matt Benning.
Phase two of the NHL’s return-to-play plan has seen players gather in small groups at their rinks and began in early June. Just the other day, Ethan Bear and Patrick Russell were on the ice.
The start of phase three is coming soon with reports saying training camps will begin on July 13th.
