PHT’s Morning Skate takes a look around the world of hockey to see what’s happening and what we’ll be talking about around the NHL world and beyond.

“It’s not something I’m going to label as [a competition]. I’m just going to approach the season to be the best goalie that I can be and I want to play as many games as I can. … However many that is, I don’t know, but to say there’s a competition or anything like that, I wouldn’t say that.”

That’s Sens goalie Andrew Hammond, talking about the perceived “goalie battle” with fellow netminder Craig Anderson. (NHL.com)
