Yeah, in most situations I'd say angling for a training camp invite or PTO or whatever is what you do when you've decided you're healthy and ready to make a serious comeback (or a serious first go of it), not when you're noodling around wondering if this hockey thing is still for you. Just because it's a few steps below the NHL doesn't make it less professional or serious or grueling (in fact, as you point out, it's probably more grueling). Without knowing more about that anon's scenario, I'd agree that something lower-stress that they do at first just to keep in shape but then unexpectedly helps them ~fall back in love with the game~ would probably be more appropriate. Maybe they decide to go back to school and get roped into joining a college (if Canadian) or club hockey team?
