Davidson to draw on pro hockey experience entering third WHL season
KAMLOOPS — It’s been a whirlwind week for Blazers defenseman Dawson Davidson, first travelling to London, Ontario with the Pittsburgh Penguins to play in three rookie tournament games against prospects from Ottawa, Montreal and Toronto.
“It was really good. I learned a lot when I was there,” says Davidson. “It’s so fast, it’s really fast hockey. You really got to adjust your game and you don’t want to have the puck on your stick for too long. You try and get it off and make plays.”
While Davidson was ultimately sent back to Kamloops, there were some positive to take away from his first pro hockey experience.
