This marks the 11th straight season the Bruins will travel to Buffalo, though this year\u2019s showcase looks a little different. The Bruins will play Buffalo twice; no other teams are in town besides the black and gold. The streak will also end at 11, as the Sabres will come to Boston for two games ahead of 2027 training camp.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">James Hagens headlines the group as the only player with NHL experience, and he\u2019s looking forward to getting back on the ice.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019m excited to be able to play a game again,\u201d James Hagens said after the first session. \u201cYou know, you work so hard in the offseason. To be able to be back on the ice, it feels great.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dans Locmelis, who is fully recovered from shoulder surgery in March, has been itching to get back to game action. He has plenty of experience on the international level, but he has spent the last six months practicing and recovering rather than playing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI just want to play hockey,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/jackstudley13\/status\/2098457580595016007?s=20\" rel=\"nofollow\">Locmelis said<\/a>. \u201cLike I said, I\u2019ve been practicing for six months.
