Ball Hockey Sucks
The ongoing Helm saga has an interesting update. It appears Darren Helm is targeting our annual prospect camp as something he wants to participate in.

So an interesting strategy and something I cannot remember ever seeing. Would also be huge for a lot of our kids to have Helm in camp teaching and imparting knowledge. I really like this idea and I hope he is ready in a month and this doesn't push him too fast.
The Detroit Red Wings are holding out hope that yet another stretch of slow rehabilitation will have left Helm in good enough condition that he can take to the ice in mid-July as part of the team’s annual development camp. It’s not usually for 26-year-olds who already are established in the NHL, but then, it hasn’t been a usual season for Helm.
Now, general manager Ken Holland said today, the next move on the wobbly chessboard that is Helm’s uncharted recovery is to see if he can skate and scrimmage with the team’s up-and-comers. If that goes well, great. That would go a long ways toward instilling belief in the Wings they can count on Helm for next season.
