I don't know when Habs' rookie camp is, but Stephane Leroux announced a few players from the Q, who have been invited to rookie camps around the NHL, and he wrote that Habs invited:
Miguel Tourigny of Blainville-Boisbriand Armada
Charles-Antoine Pilote of Moncton Wildcats
Bennet MacArthur of Acadie-Bathurst Titan
Tourigny (19 years old - RD) - 5'8" & 165 lbs
2020-21: 36 pts (15G, 21A) in 32 GP -- Playoffs: 8 pts (3G, 5A) in 9 GP
Pilote (18 years old - LD) - 6'3" & 192 lbs
2020-21: 10 pts (3G, 7A) in 31 GP -- Playoffs: 3 pts (1G, 2A) in 6 GP
MacArhur (20 years old - LW) - 5'11" & 194 lbs
2020-21: 40 pts (28G, 12A) in 33 GP -- Playoffs: 11 pts (6G, 5A) in 9 GP
MacArthur was the 3rd best goal scorer in the QMJHL last season, 0.85GPG
If he does well at the camp, given his age, wouldn't be surprised to see him in Laval/Trois-Rivières
Tourigny is tiny for a dman, but damn he does everything on the ice, and ain't scared of no one.

That's weird, Titan says MacArthur is going to Arizona's camp.

It could be a Leroux mistake. Just Tweeted this to him so we'll see if he sees it, he'll correct it.
It could be that he had Tourigny and Pilote both "à Montréal" so when he listed MacArthur, he still had "à Montréal" in his head.

Depending on the dates of each he could have been invited to both, as I have seen players attend more then one rookie camp although I don't know if that was done in advance or just after not getting signed from one they went to another.
Never knew that a player can attend two camps depending on the dates each organization holds it.

Do you know if there will be a development camp? Or will development camp and rookie camp be merged into one?
if we knew, you would know, I would suspect the info will be out soon since time is ticking since July is coming to an end
If no one else has heard anything, and news is coming out about rookie camp, I'd imagine no separate development camp.
This is an intriguing one
Ivan Zhigalov at eliteprospects.com
"One player that they may come to know after this event however is Ivan Zhigalov, the Belarusian goaltender who held them in the game for much of the night. He was able to hold the Belarusian team within one goal until the final two minutes of the second period and then continued to battle in the third period keeping it 3-1 until the final two minutes of the third period. All in all, Zhigalov was very strong in net and likely deserved a better fate than a 5-1 loss." - Dobberprospects
Repêchage euro: le gardien Ivan Zhigalov est le choix du Phoenix
Is he considered an undrafted CHL player and can be signed or an undrafted euro and cannot?
undrafted Euro, can't be signed as far as I know.
undrafted Euro, can't be signed as far as I know.
What I thought as well based on nationality, but wasn't sure if the league the player is signed out of changes that.
I believe if he plays only in NA this year, he would be eligible to be signed after next draft.
He is ineligible this year because he played at least 1 game in Europe this season.
Good example of this is Tkachyov who had played half the season in Russia and half in Moncton. He was still deemed ineligible because of the Russia half even if he played in Moncton for the rest of the year.
Thanks for clearing that up. So basically he is a warm body in goalie equipment for the rookie camp since we only have 2 or possibly 3 coming for it. If there was any real interest, they probably would have used the extra 7 th rd pick they banked for next year on him.
