Run out of interest before goaltenders, really tame looking invite class compared to last year's.

 

[Andy99]

This just depresses me about Jordy....anyone hearing anything about how he’s doing?

 

[WayneSid9987]

Jack DeBoer is son of SJ coach Pete Deboer.

The goalies are probably the more impressive guys invited. Some good numbers in high scoring leagues.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Jeez, Keenan Suthers is like 6'8"....damn son.

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

Jeez, Keenan Suthers is like 6'8"....damn son.

His name sounds like some big country boy's name.

"Boy, you got all your chores done?"

"Yeah, pa. Imma go tip some o' them cows fer fun now"

 

[Pens x]

That is not an encouraging pool of prospects

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Also Martin Lapointe's son.

Just because you know nothing about them, doesn't mean they are.

You also had no clue who Miletic and Bellerive were as well as D'Orio, so try to wait and actually see.

Will McKinnon

found this write-up about this kid committing to UNH. could be an interesting player.

"He plays a mature, deliberate game..a strong, powerful skater..a heads up defender who can handle the puck under duress..smooth hands and offensive instincts."

The Neutral Zone scouting service has designated MacKinnon as a 4-Star prospect on their 5-Star rating scale

The 5'11", 202 lbs. left-shot defenseman served as the Alternate Captain for the Des Moines Buccaneers. As the youngest defenseman on the team, MacKinnon started on left defense in the second game of the season and went on to start in nearly half the Bucs' games. He also played on their first penalty kill unit in many games.

"His best attribute is his shot; he has great power and an instant release which makes him a scoring threat even from the blue line. He’s strong on his skates and on his stick and did a nice job keeping pucks in the offensive zone and seemed to have developed great sense for when to pinch and when to retreat. He played a puck possession game here and carried the puck up ice regularly to lead or compliment the rush and showed smooth hands and offensive instincts."

Pete Deboer and Martin Lapointe have a son together?

 

[Michael Farkas]

I know Carter Robertson. He was an easy ND for me. Which means nothing, but I was already on this sub-forum and felt the need to needlessly comment...

 

[SEALBound]

Some concerning names missing.

Praying for a gen somewhere in there.

 

[FreeBobbyFarnham]

Heard pre-draft that Aiden McDonough was pretty good. Another interesting name is Mitchell Chaffee imo.

That is not an encouraging pool of prospects

Most of our top prospects are not attending... which is weird.

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

That's one sorry looking development camp roster.

 

[Corvidae]

Pete Deboer and Martin Lapointe have a son together?

The NHL is such a boy's club.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Pete Deboer and Martin Lapointe have a son together?

Medical miracle. Also a PR dream.

 

[deakka]

I guess Lauzon is still injured then?
And Bellerive might still be revovering too, which is no suprise.

Bellerive and Lauzon recovering from injuries. Sprong, ZAR and Simon probably held to have graduated.

That leaves Blugers, Dea... no, wait, everyone who played for the Baby Pens last year. Huh. Wonder why.



Incidentally, I'm glad people have heard these players are better than their numbers read.

Angello, Lafferty and Johnson are also not on the list.

 

[FreeBobbyFarnham]

I think it's a good thing actually. They already have an idea of how good the guys in WBS are. It gives us an opportunity to invite more FA prospects and hopefully we can find a gem.

 

[wej20]

Hopefully we'll invite a few more guys to the prospect tournament. None of these guys seem to scream jump out and sign me.

 

[Burn]

There are undrafted kids in Minnesota that should be there.

The thing I'm loving is Marco Sturm being there. I would love to see him in the mix.

 

[deakka]

Bluleger and Dea are also not under contract as of yet. No idea if thats taken Into consideration? But yeah, probably dont need to evaluate the WBS regulars as much as players who are playing on other clubs.

 

[The Old Master]

just a bunch of warm bodies. but you never know.
