The NHL Scouting Combine is taking place in Buffalo, N.Y. this week. Teams and players have landed and have started to meet (Auston Matthews talked to the Maple Leafs already).
On Saturday, the players will run through most of the drills that the combine is publicly known for, but in the week leading up to the event, the players interview with teams and go through medical examinations.
More on the 2016 NHL Combine here:
Sportsnet.ca will be hosting two live streams on Saturday: the first at 9:30 a.m. ET as Auston Matthews’ group goes through, and the second at 3:00 p.m. ET as Patrik Laine takes centre stage.
