KELOWNA, BC - Mike Smith is still learning names.
No longer quarantined to his bed with an illness, the keeper is back on the ice in Oilers threads getting to know his teammates at Training Camp.
"I'm still trying to figure out guys' first names here on the team," he joked on Sunday at Prospera Place in Kelowna, BC, where the Oilers are on a weekend team retreat.
The 37-year-old participated at a few of the informal captain's skates the club held before Camp but can now finally begin to acclimate with the squad.
"It was unlike me to be that sick for that long," Smith said. "That's over now. I'm just focused on getting up to speed here."
