This summer in Minnesota, several dozen NHL players are participating in an organized summer league called Da Beauty League.

Current and former Capitals Taylor Chorney, Nate Schmidt, Shane Gersich, Aaron Ness, Travis Boyd, and Matt Hendricks are dispersed amongst the league’s six teams which includes other NHL players and prospects.

While Chorney has lit up the scoreboard and Schmidt has played in his old Capitals gear, other familiar names have been having productive summers getting ready for the upcoming season.

On Tuesday, after former NHL All-Star Game MVP and Da Beauty League commissioner John Scott finally arrived, the league got everyone together for official team photos.

They are awesome.

Team VELOCITY

Team Roster: Nick Jensen – 55, Jordan Schmaltz – 77, Chris Butler – 44, Seth Helgeson – 97, Steve Johnson – 66, Ryan Lindgren – 11, Matt Hendricks – 16, Kyle Rau – 8, Jake Randolph – 6, Drew Stafford – 19, Justin Fontaine – 7, Travis Boyd – 9, Kyle Okposo – 33, Charlie Lindgren – 00

Though without a current NHL contract, Hendricks has appeared in seven games and is tied for fifth in total points with 15 (7 goals, 8 assists). Boyd isn’t far behind with 13 points (6 goals, 7 assists).

Team WALSER

Team Roster: Dustin Byfuglien – 33, Trevor van Riemsdyk – 66, Zach Bogosian – 88, Keaton Thompson – 77, Derik Johnson – 16, Ryan Zuhlsdorf 7, Shane Gersich – 9, Jared Bethune – 19, Troy Bourke – 8, Brock Boeser – 6, Chris Stewart – 44, Calvin Spencer – 55, James van Riemsdyk – 27, Jake Kielly – 98, Brandon Wildung – 00

Ness, who could challenge for a roster spot on the Capitals blue line this season, has 7 points (1 goals, 6 assists) through 6 games. He is not match Chorney, who was appropriately named Da Beauty League’s Bobby Orr. Chorney tallied seven points in his first four games, and now has 10 points (2 goals, 8 assists) through seven games.

If you live near Minneapolis, there is still time to catch some of these games. The playoff semi-finals begin at 6 PM on August 21 and the John Scott’s Cup Championship game will be on August 23. Tickets for the games can be purchased online or at the arena on game day.
