Oshie's fitness levels off the charts
T.J. Oshie - W - St Louis Blues
Sept. 17, 2011 - 10:50 AM ET

T.J. Oshie impressed the Blues' training staff with his excellent fitness testing on Friday.

Oshie missed much of last season with a broken ankle and never really got on track after he returned in early April. In fact, he was benched for missing a team practice without reason. Oshie seemed to put that all behind him as he scored very well on a number of conditioning and skating tests and seems ready for a bounce back campaign. After the testing, Blues strength and conditioning coach Nelson Ayotte said: "Oshie showed this summer that he's a pro." Keep an eye on Oshie. He could surprise.
