How come the game at the Saddledome on the 9th isn't anywhere on their website, or am I just blind? Googling I can only find the Red Deer game.

When does main camp start? I would imagine there will be at least a couple of sessions before they go to China?

Based on the latest Hanifin report, sounds like the main camp players report Sept 9.

Interesting to see that Andersson isn't on the Prospects list this year.

Nope as discussed in the back burner he signed another AHL deal with the Heat even though the Flames NHL rights expired

In total that is:

14 forwards
8 defense
4 goalies

That means that 2 from every position will sit each game.

Not much to watch for. kind of a weird one as I am usually pretty excited about rookie camp.

Key players I'll be watching intently.

Kylington
Valimaki
Zavgorodny
Dube
Joly

It'd be neat if we could get our European players over as it would up the curiosity level a fair bit with Svenningson and Linstrom and Tuulola et al.

Hopefully we see some fun hockey. There should be a big gap between the top few prospects we have and the rest. I am legitimately curious about Zavgorodny and Joly though, high end skill yet to be shown.

So they're at the Corral this year? Might have to check out a practice session to see Parsons, Valimaki, Foo and Dube...

Forwards

Mike McMurty - 79
https://www.eliteprospects.com/playe.../mike-mcmurtry
signed to AHL deal with Stockton


Jordan Ernst - 97

teammate and sometimes linemate of Adam Ruzicka in Sarnia.
Looking for a pro contract as he is too old to return to the CHL.

I am very interested to see how Phillips plays in the rookie games. These will be his peers fighting for spots in the AHL. In these games belonging isn't enough. To get excited about a prospect they need to be head and shoulders better than the competition.

Likewise I want to see how Ruzicka fairs. I know he is back in Sarnia, still it will be fun to see how he stacks up against other prospects.

Out of the entire group here I don't see more than 4 or 5 who have a legit shot at making noise in the main camp.
Valimaki, Kylington, Foo, Dube, and Mangiapane.

Honorable mention to Gawdin and Parsons but imo they are both AHL bound unless something crazy happens.

The way it was explained in the press release, because of the China games veteran players can voluntary report tomorrow for fitness testing or they can do it when the camp officially starts. Those who opt to do it tomorrow will be available to the media at 10 AM.

I believe it's "voluntary" because of the CBA. The players are still technically on their summer break until the start of Training Camp, so the team can't require them to do something during that time.

Quote:
15.3 (a) The duration of Training Camp for all Players who have qualified during the preceding Regular Season for at least 50 games credit for Pension Plan purposes shall not be more than 20 days, and shall not be more than 27 days for all other Players.

(b) Players who have qualified during the preceding Regular Season for at least 50 games credit for Pension Plan purposes will, on a voluntary basis, be permitted to receive Training Camp medicals/physicals during the five (5) day period prior to the opening of Training Camp. For all other Players, no Training Camp activities shall be performed prior to the opening of Training Camp.

(c) The first day of Training Camp will be dedicated (and exclusively limited) to office activities, such as medicals/physicals, fitness testing, photographs and other public relations related matters. During the first four (4) days of on-ice activity at Training Camp (days 2 through 5), ice-time activities will be limited to 1.75 hours and off-ice activities will be limited to 1.25 hours per day, except on Exhibition Game days where these limits shall not apply to Players playing in the Exhibition Game.
