Fiset Is Fit, Eager to Play

The Kings will have fitness testing today, but goaltender Stephane Fiset said his biggest test was the first day of training camp after having last season cut short because of an abdominal/groin injury that led to hernia surgery in April.

“I really didn’t know what to expect. . . . The only way I was going to be able to tell if I was [fit] was to actually play,” said Fiset, who was 13-24-5 last season. “I didn’t feel any pain. Since then, I’ve been feeling better and better. I’m ready to play.”

Fiset and Jamie Storr (still unsigned) are expected to be the Kings’ goalies for their first exhibition game against San Jose on Sunday night at San Diego Sports Arena.
