Development Camp Prediction:

1. Bouchard wants to make a good impression. He checks Yamamoto hard and breaks Yama's shoulder.
2. Brind'amour sticks up for Yamamoto and fights Bouchard. Bouchard gets concussion.

Development camp ends early.

Hawkeye is missing......but he's probably busy with Bullseye. Id also like to see more of Berglund and Marino.

Are we not inviting anybody from outside. With as few picks we had you'd think we'd invite a few players. Luka Burzan maybe?

Looking at other teams camps we have about half the prospects then some teams have at there’s, I’m wondering if this is in part to not having any prospect tournaments in the fall.

Just by looking at that list, I can tell just how much our drafting has improved over the years. Before, it always felt like they had one good player at the camp(first rounder). Now there are multiple players that I'm excited to see at camp.

IIRC, last year's Billy Moores cup was dominated by good performances from Yamamoto, Maksimov, Gambardella and Safin. I'll be curious to see who looks good this time around.

I wish they had some undrafted invites. I guess maybe that's tough to do with Development Camp right after the draft. Anyways, excited to hear peoples' impressions who are attending Development Camp.

I miss that there is no Penticton Tourney. Was planning on going there this year and had hoped to catch a couple of games.
