Likely most of the players who were at the development camp earlier in July except the guys who are heading back to play in Europe or college.

I wonder if there might be a few undrafted CHL players this time around....

Been there the last two years. Golf, breweries, hockey. Awesome guys trip.

[Goriders]

Got my tickets. My second year going. Awesome weekend.

Did you get an advance code to buy them? Looks like general admission launches on the 29th.

Advance code. I signed up on the events center list and a canucks list. Got an email on wed.

Probably a few junior graduates looking for an ECHL job.

Thanks for that! Looks like sales have been brisk so there's nothing left in the centre sections, but managed to snag a quartet by the blueline which likely would have been gone if I'd waited til the general release.



Very stoked for another year of this tournament when the Flames should actually be fun to watch.

Much like U18 tourney, this tourney is underrated with incredible stars!

[Goriders]

Wonder when the rosters will come out for the tourney. Curious to see who the Flames will dress.

[Robbob]

Last year it was a week before. I am thinking by the end of next week there should be some announcements.

[Toonage]

Bump - Jets announce roster. Hoping to see the Flames today too

[Freeway]

Based on history, I would expect Flames to announce their tournament roster on Monday or Tuesday.

The same thing happens every year with this tournament - fans get all excited about the new prospects, and assume that the team with the best young prospects will dominate, but every year, it's the 21 and 22 year olds that dominate against the 18 and 19 year olds.

That is true, especially when a team brings in the majority of their AHL team. They already know each other and know haw to play a structured game.

I think the big thing is more the little things or plays by individual players.

Frankie Marrelli, and Anthony Cristoforo are two players I would be happy to watch in this tournament, if they get an invite.

That’s what vancouver did last year.

[Enoch Root]

By the way, I'm not trying to trash it - it's a great event.

Just saying, for Flames fans that think the Flames will dominate because they have better prospects, well you're probably going to be disappointed with the results. Just enjoy getting a first glimpse of the new players. Results are completely irrelevant.
