  Perhaps the biggest story of training camp to date was Dustin Byfuglien taking some time away from the team.

For the most part, I’ve noticed a few names going later than they should be, but I decided to play Devil’s advocate and label one of the game’s greatest goal-scorers of our generation, ‘overrated’.
