First preseason games are the double header on the 17th so maybe around the week of the 10th?

This is what happens when your team has zero beat writers. I mean I love all the fans covering the team and posting news on twitter etc but someone like George Richards is really missed
I haven't seen a single peep about our training camp anywhere like we use to
Yep. Been looking for it for a bit now. Heck, rookie camp should at least get a mention, that starts even before training camp. We're almost on top of it. But yeah, get tired of looking for info on this stuff every year, and can't find any until it's almost time to start.

The athletic has already hired someone to cover the Panthers beat. He should be announced soon.

Probably related to them not participating in 2017 due to Irma. They probably liked being able to do their own thing.
Yeah, and I think they said they wanted our rookies to be around our own players/core/vets.

They still hopeing Bjugstad turn out to be a Top six Player, wooow. Its really hard to believe, hard hard to guess what they see in him, what other don´t see.
From i like Big Center And Nick will be one of them, to he will be a great Winger after all the Time, still believe that he is a top six Player. A Player who scored on 5 inches away from the Net a few single movements. When this makes anyone in this League top 6 Player, there are much more Top 6 Player in the League that we already have.
What they fear from the Prospect Tournament?? It was always a goof first indicator who looks ready who looks better then the rest. And the Fans loved the Prospect Tournament. Or did they believe Prospect who already played Prospect Camp have not the energy to play the same NHL Level. Sorry i get a bit confused from this developing in this Area.
Btw i hope the missing Prospect Camp and Tournament has nothing to do with it, that the current Roster of the Springfiels are 18 Players and it looks that a few from the NHL must fill the holes in the AHL Roster, but i only guess.

Sigh. Frankly, I’m getting tired of this tone about Bjugstad here from quite a few posters.
I’m not talking about having a negative opinion about Nick. I get that we have different opinions.
I’m getting tired of the underlying assumption that “of course Nick sucks”.... if he does well it’s “accidental” and that’s the time to “hurry up and trade him” cause he’s only gonna get worse.
That isn’t supported by data. What is supported is that Nick got better and better throughout last season, and that he was coming from two seasons ravaged by injuries. Back, migraines, hand, concussion.
The odds are actually that Nick will become better than his contract - sort of what many thought after his first year.

Yeah that is the different Point of View, like you said you also can look at the stats in different views.
You mean the stats that his Points and stats raised after he was placed with Barkov and Dadonov, yeah that is a prove with stats he is a real Top6 Player.
And as much you a tired of it, it will always be a point of Discussion.

But the production of Barkov and Dadonov also increased lol.
The fact that it keeps getting left out is just hilarious. Anytime someone mentions it, it's crickets lmao.
It's not even opinion. It's backed up by raw numbers. Not even advanced stats.
