Making the Cut

3-on-3 (1x7)

: 02, 2004

As game action resumes, the Black Aces are desperate for another chance and some injured players are chomping at the bit to get back in. But during roll call at the rink, coaches are stunned to find that one player has gone AWOL. A switch to 3-on-3 play tests the skills of the players—especially the goalies. Speed and skill are on display as some players struggle to keep up with the swift pace. Then a shocking on-ice incident leaves players and coaches buzzing. When the 3-on-3 game is over more players find themselves on the bubble. Some will be cut. But back in camp, everybody's still talking about The Incident.
