Monahan and Gaudreau both looking excellent so far. Very poised and capitalizing on their chances

Anyone have any good twitter feeds covering the practices and especially the scrimmage tomorrow?

And I love the news, keep it coming.

Was down at the rink yesterday to cover the Canucks prospects and I came away very unimpressed. Not sure if it is the group out there or I'm just not familiar with what the level of play should be. Many there were invites or UFA's. Thought their heralded European goalie was awful. Terrible angles and slow side to side.

Best part was leaving though. All the kids were gathered around the exit but afraid to leave as there was a large group of rather young girls waiting outside and no one wanted to go out first. They were playing rock/paper/scissors to see who would go out first. Instead of heading to my car I went out the door first to a few cheers until they realized I am close to 20 years to old and 40lbs heavier than an NHL prospect. It was fun for a fleeting minute.

Bingo should get a Twitter feed API set up with a particular hashtag, then embed the widget in a stickied thread. Any CP member or member of the public can contribute to the #hashtag discussion. May I suggest #CPFlamesDevCamp ?

I'm happy to use it too - I'll be there.

Honestly - how do we not have an embed code for Twitter yet? I'm looking at you Bingo!

Random observation: this has got to be the biggest group of kids I've seen at a #Flames development camp in years. Size & skill both here.

Torie Peterson@ToriePeterson6m

Sieloff's hits are going to be scarier next season: dude has put on 15 lbs. with strength training recently ~ http://cflam.es/16yLbEJ

Quote:
When Patrick Sieloff was sidelined with a groin injury, he could have taken a step back from training and eased into the off-season.
Instead, he turned his misfortune into an opportunity to further his development.
The 6-foot defenceman headed out to Calgary at the tail-end of the Flames season, getting a chance to witness what an everyday NHLer goes through while training. The weeks he spent in Calgary impacted Sieloff's approach to workouts and the emphasis he placed on strength training.
"That helped me a lot, to see how they do things around here," Sieloff said after Friday's practice at WinSport.
"I took it to heart and said, 'This is my time. I've got to get better. I've got to put on some weight.'"
Quote:
"You see guys at this level now playing and they're a different breed. They don't play a soft game. You go into a corner, you know you're going to get hit. That's the kind of game I like to play - a physical game, keeping it simple and getting it in deep."
Quote:
"My only concern right now is me. I will control what I can control, on the ice and off the ice," Sieloff stated. "That's in their hands. All I can do is control what I need to do."

Every comment I've read and interview I've seen from Sieloff makes me think this guy has future captain written all over him.

Sieloff was pretty solid before at just under 200# but I wondered if he could play his physical game at that weight in the pros. Gaining 15# of muscle is good news as long as he doesn't lose his speed and agility.

Rob Kerr will have the call via the Flames site if you can't make it down.

Thanks to everybody attending and giving updates. It is very much appreciated.

Haven't heard anything about DeBlouw, good or bad. How has he looked?

God do we have a ton of prospects now.

I am so ridiculously excited about Patrick Sieloff. He has winner written all over him.
