Quote:
A notable omission from the China group is top prospect Spencer Foo, who had an excellent rookie season with the Stockton Heat before getting a taste of the big show late last year, scoring twice in his first four games a Flame.
"Foo, (Andrew) Mangiapane, (Alan) Quine, (Buddy) Robinson, (Kerby) Rychel, (Matthew) Philips and so on - I've talked to those players and they know there's a method to the madness here," Treliving said.
"They're going to get great exposure. They're going to play in top offensive roles; they're going to play on special teams... We think that's real important for them. In a lot of ways, it's an added bonus with a lot of the regular players gone.
"I think it's a good opportunity for the guys that aren't going to really showcase themselves."
The Flames play two games during their eight-day journey, Sept. 15 and 19, against the Boston Bruins in Shenzhen and Beijing, respectively.
Treliving expects all 25 players to make at least one appearance during the trip.
"The goal was to get a small enough group together to make it manageable, and a big enough group so that you can have solid, competitive practices while you're there."
