GDT: The Training Camp Thread

[Alicat]

Sorry if I’m misinterpreting this, but is Frederic splitting time with McKinnon for the LW on a training camp line? Why? They don’t have room for the kid to have a full-time spot?

It is training camp. They mix and match potential lines all the time. He's also not guaranteed a spot. He's gotta earn it just like everyone else.

It's day 1. There's no need to get upset.

Is Carlo cleared for full contact?

Is Carlo cleared for full contact?

Yes. He'll be in the 2nd session

So looks like the 1st (Marchand-Bergeron-Pasta) and the 4th (Frederic-Nosek-Lazar) + injured Coyle for the forwards.

D I think having Forbort and Gryz in the same group as Mac shows they're gonna try both and see who they're feeling more. "Loser" plays bottom pair with Clifton. Reilly and Carlo in group B together tells me that's our second pair.

I speculate that what they want most of all is to know is whether they can move between Forbort and Grizzy with McAvoy depending on the situation. Grizz they know about, Forbort is the question as to whether he gels with Mac in any way.

Love the Mike Bossy comp on Lysell

Slow down a little. Lol.

Bossy was one of the greatest all time goal scorers to ever lace them up.

Any word on Charlie Coyle? Did he participate at all?

Yes but in a non-contact jersey

Every time I see the number 23 I think of Craig Janney...hoping Stud could be 70% of that!

Honest to god, I may be a screaming fanboy. I still think Janney would be a disappointment. The offensive numbers for sure. But I expect a two way player that is harder to play against for 200 feet. I doubt he will ever approach Janney's ability to make the perfect pass in the O-Zone but I want more.

Maybe McKinnon is just his shadow.

Thanks guys!

IIRC he had the surgery in July so probably on target for his return. In the meantime I really hope Studnicks grabs that 2C spot, I want Charlie at 3C where he belongs & plays his best.

That's worth $3.8m to me, right there.

You can see the weight gain here. That's a big boy

They showed him in a shirt on the Bruins instagram channel. You can see he added some weight but unfortunately he is still very much a string been ...
