Is it just the increased exposure/attention or me but looks like there are a lot of big bodies out there?... Not just Smith and Kanzig but overall.

It's just you. No one else has commented on the size of our players at camp in this thread.

“I feel excited,” said Craig Conroy, assistant general manager. “We get lots of calls from teams who like our (prospects). I’ll admit — in years past, it wasn’t quite like that ... we didn’t get a lot of calls. Now we do. That’s a good sign for me. That means people are excited about our guys.”
For the Flames’ annual rookie camp, Brad Treliving wanted the invitations pared down — or, at least, re-themed. The new general manager needed to clap eyes on fewer of the young pros, and more of the fresher commodities.

Good news for campers?
Pace is likely to be ratcheted back.
“In years past, we’ve really hammered guys,” said Conroy. “We know what kind of players they are. We don’t want to kill them. We want them to have some fun, just enjoy it. Don’t try to do too much. Just be yourself.”

Calgary Flames @NHLFlames 1m FYI: Gillies, Jankowski, Poirier & Hathaway are at #Flames development camp but will not participate in on-ice sessions.
Why no Jankowski?

Since Poirier is included on the list, I assume it's due to injuries

So does Gilmour though, no mention of him missing on ice sessions.

Seems like it is something unexpected or Gilles and Jankowski wouldn't have been featured on Flames.com as 'players to watch' in camp.

Wolf hurried through testing so he could watch the World Cup game...
It must be a culture shock for him to come to a country where soccer isn't a big deal and everyone is dressed up like a cowboy.

Didn't Treliving say if they've done two they wouldn't really be in the mix? Jankowski has done two.

Gaudreau has done three. So no, I don't think that's it.
