The Blackhawks released their roster and schedule for next week's prospect/development camp, this morning. Here are a few notes to keep in mind:
- Alexandre Fortin, Fredrik Olofsson and Jakub Galvas are listed as "injured" and are listed for off ice activities only.
- Only six free agent invitees on the rosters (seven if you include Roy Radke). This is down quite a bit from the past camps.
- Former Merrimack goalie, and Hostile favorite, Collin Delia is not listed as a free agent but actually is.
- Two of the seven free agent invitees (Joey Keane, Brogan Rafferty) are from Chicago area (Homer Glen/Dundee).
- Three of the seven free agent invitees are goalies (Collin Delia, Kyle Keyser, Hayden Lavigne).
- Rockford's Will Pelletier (24) is the oldest and free agent invitee Joey Keane is the youngest (18 on 7/2).
- Those hoping to see actual scrimmages any day other than Friday will be disappointed, which means If you plan to go Friday, it'll be a madhouse unless you get there early
- Unless you are a big fan of drills, Monday through Thursday will be a wasted trip for you. Plan accordingly.
- This camp has truly gone from a prospect search to a organizational development camp. Less hockey and free agents; more training and prospects from the organization.
- No Russian prospects are attending
