I was really looking forward to see him play this weekend. Hopefully he is fully healthy for camp

Unbelievable :laugh:

Oh well, the chances of him making the team were slim to begin with. Our top 4 youngsters are all recovering from injuries heading into training camp (Kapanen, Bennett, Maatta, Pouliot). Ugh

It's a meaningless tournament. No point in risking further injury.

Penguins facebook page says it's an ankle injury... Which is it?

Disappointing, was expecting him to be an offensive leader at the rookie tourny.

It's probably just precaution then. There's no point in him playing in a tournament with the potential for him to get hurt even worse if they feel like he can play in the NHL this year.

Especially because we pretty much average one terrible injury per year at the tournament. At least that rules him out already. :laugh:

The Penguins release which Molinari links to states that Kapanen "should be ready" for training camp so it's likely just a precaution. It also says that Jaden Lindo will miss the tournament as he's still recovering from his knee injury. The updated roster has 13 forwards left, nobody new has been invited.
