"Pretty surreal. Hard to wrap my head around standing in an NHL locker room." Chase Harrington shares his thoughts on h

What happened: Harrington said the jump into Calgary's training camp has been hard to process after stepping into an NHL locker room. He has been skating with the club's NHL group since camp opened this week.

Why it matters: The camp look keeps Harrington in the mix for more preseason reps as Calgary works through early roster decisions for 2025-26. It comes just days after Calgary split camp into Red and Black groups, with Harrington staying on the NHL side.

By the numbers: Harrington entered camp after a 57-point junior season.

What to watch: Preseason usage and the next round of camp cuts will show how long Harrington stays with the main group.
