NHL rookie camps feature standout performances and physical matchups

Recent NHL rookie camp action featured standout individual performances and notable physical matchups. During a game between the San Jose Sharks and Los Angeles Kings rookies, 7-foot-1 defenseman Alexander Karmanov, the tallest player in hockey history, engaged in a fight with Kings prospect Liam Lefebvre.

In separate action, the Montreal Canadiens rookies secured a 5-4 victory over the Ottawa Senators. The win was highlighted by a hat trick from winger Josh Nadeau and a three-assist performance from Luke Mittelstadt. Nadeau is expected to move to the AHL this season, while Mittelstadt remains a key player to watch as the main Canadiens training camp approaches.
