What prompted me to start the thread now is because we got some news on one player the Habs invited to the camp, Justin Addamo.



He is from France, is a winger and shoots left. He is 21 years old and is 6'6" and 227lbs. He played in the NCAA last year (Robert Morris University). It was his first year in the NCAA and he had 15 pts (8G, 7A) in 39 GP.

[Adam Michaels]

No real highlights available for him. But I did find a game's highlights where you can take a look at Addamo. He is #21 for the white team.

He is involved in some plays that lead to goals.

1st Time Stamp: 3:36
2nd Time Stamp: 4:11



Here's another game where they got smoked 7-2 by Penn State. But Addamo plays a key role in RMU's second goal.

Time Stamp: 2:46

Here come the coke machines :p

 

[Runner77]

What's the deal with this guy -- he's way too tall to be invited to a Habs camp ...

o pt in 5 games in WJC-20 D1A
Less than 0.5 PPG in NCAA.

Not really optimistic about it.

Here come the coke machines :p

Hey park 2 of those in front of the net and we're saving 10.5 mil in cap space

So usually, the week after the Entry Draft, the Habs have their Development Camp. According to Andrew Zadarnowski of EOTP, it may end up being from June 27-30 (Montreal Canadiens’ off-season calendar.) But he's not confirming this.

We don't have an official list and I will add it to this original post when it becomes available.

I can't wait for this. We have so many good prospects that it will be interesting to see who stands out of such a talented pack.

After the big names, I'm hoping ikonen and Harris can stand out.

Last year, Ikonen didn't participate be sure he was injured. But the year before, right after he was drafted, he did stand out.

Yeah, and there will be better competition this year, so it will be a good test.

I wish kk, Mete, and Romanov would be there - to see how the others compare to them Nd to inspire them. But i suppose they're considered graduated ( even though in my mind i still emphasize their development).

Kotkaniemi will most likely be there.

Romanov would be eligible to still go, but the KHL camps start in mid-June (as their season starts earlier than NHL), so he won't be there.

that deke might not work but am I crazy for thinking that back hand was pretty nasty?

Yeah, nice back hand. Needless to say though those feet look heavy.

 

[Treb]

Hopefully he has a better skating than 3 years ago.

 

[Newfoundland]

Paging user(see below). is this guy good? Can somebody tag him he seem's to know a lot about french prospects
@Belizarius

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Aw man, if his name were Adama I'd be posting so many Galactica gifs .

 

[Treb]

So Alexis Shank (G), Nicolas Guay (RW) and Vincent Marleau (C) from the QMJHL added.

Personal hope for Matthew Struthers who was signed to a ATO at the end of the season, but nothing official yet.

No Bergeron... morons.

No Bergeron... morons.

He decided to go to CBJ dev camp.

Timmins said Norlinder won't be at the development camp because he fractured his wrist in off-season training recently.

He also said that Khisamutdinov won't be there because he will be with his KHL team for their camp.

Everyone else from this year's draft should be there. I added them, and will remove them if something changes.

I like the Alexis Shank and Christopher Merisier-Ortiz invites, I know I saw both of them and I believe I liked what I saw from Shank but it was months ago. That said I much rather see us going for kids that are still draft eligible vs the overager that has a big year finally ala Waked.

Alexis Shank made 80 saves on 83 shots in the defeat of the Saguenéens

 

[overlords]

Alexis Shank is one metal name. I'm pulling for that guy.
