Prospect Info: Florida Panthers Development Camp

Did they leave Knight alone? Gave up 5?

They did the first game too lol.

 

[letsgrowcactus]

Not that this game has much meaning, but why is Kinnear still with this organization? He seems like a horrible coach lol.

Seriously. We say this every year and yet he's still there. Does he have Viola's dirty pictures or something?

 

[Thomas Colavecchio]

I'm excited to see what he can do in a full year down in Charlotte.

This is going to be a most interesting and competitive Training Camp. Can't wait to see who plays himself into, or out of one, of those last spots; as well as who eventually may get moved to create some space (roster and CAP).

Lots of one way contracts, in place, especially up front. It's going to be fun to watch...

I don't understand how tampa's prospects are this good, they are literally a bottom 5 pool

Because those lists are just that. lists. they mean nothing. Tampa has been doing this for a decade.

hutsko/ noel/ deni looked good

good question.

not sure if this is relevant but what is the proportion of, to use the earlier post (@Knighty Knight ?) of group A, B, C camp invites between the two clubs? by that, i mean have we offered more camp invites to un-drafted and castoff players (group C) vs TB? we do have a lot of kids out there who aren't our prospects; a few look to be threats to at least earn an shot at a checkers roster spot but some are certainly just filling out the camp roster.

in any case, this is probably a good reality check for zito. have we really fixed our drafting and player development? fixing the big club's roster is just one piece of the puzzle of sustainable success.

Schwindt is gonna be a useful player

shootout goal was a beaut. really nice hands.

 

[zeroG]

This one was a nice shot!

and a really nice drop by schwindt. didn't give it away to early and really put it in a place where hutsko had time and space to pick his spot.

don't know if anyone's shared this story yet but this writer seemed to think trevor wong had a lot of potential (enough to make him one of the 3 story lines of camp). only was able to watch parts of two of the games. anyone else have an opinion on him? did he impress?

Meh
He has some decent speed, but really lacks size. He was getting pushed around physically I thought. I would imagine he is in our group C prospects, being sent right to the training camp for the Checkers.

 

[Prominence Problem]

In my opinion, on the outside looking in for a NHL training camp invite:

F - Alaire, Picard, Trenholm, Wong
D - Brunet, Calisti, Haché, LeGuerrier
G - Austin


I'd imagine tomorrow they're going to release the training camp roster.

I'm pretty sure we can't sign wong though, he is still draft eligible

We can still sign him up to a certain point in the year. After that, nobody can sign him until next draft if they want to draft him.

 

[zeroG]

story says he was invited as a UFA. he can reenter the draft but right now, he's free.

wouldn't make sense for him to be a pro camp if the team couldn't sign him.

EDIT: sorry, didn't see other responses...

 

[Prominence Problem]

Philadelphia news, but I just want to share that my cousin Mason Millman received a NHL training camp invite again. That's basically two years in a row for a fourth round pick in '19!

 

[violaswallet]

I think we know two of the rookies on the team this year

 

[HockeyRulez]

I hope Gildon makes the team and has a long career with us.

 

[zeroG]

can anyone summarize the ones who missed an invite (that we thought might have even an outside shot)?

wong
treeholm
picard
calisti

anyone else?

I thought Adam, the goalie, might get an invite. But I feel like the third game performance might have did him in.

 

[Dread Clawz]

I think there's a good chance if Calisti has a big year, we'll draft him.

This is a gem, looks like a fun group
