Looks like the Tournament tickets are available to STH but not the general public...... that sucks...........

Well since there are 15,000 STH’s and 2,500 seats available at Harbor Center. And there is massive interest  ...

Every year the place is packed.

Well, when they held the event at the "Keybank" Center and charged for tickets they never had this issue........... It was great fun..... sit where you want..... We'd sit behind a goalie for a bit.... then change to center ice...... then wherever...... big fun........ then off to Thin Man!

you mean back in the day when the Sabres actually appreciated ALL the fans and not just STH? I was there in 2015....part of the over 17,000 in attendance.

Will MIttlestadt and Dahlin be a part of dev camp?  TT?   Nylander?  Olofsson?  CJ Smith?  Pilut?

First two no, the next four yes, Pilut is injured

Interesting.TT’s presence seems to support the prospect argument.

Should CJ Smith also be included? He’s older but has only played two pro seasons. The Sabres still consider him a prospect and I think I do too.

Do they need to be under contract?   CJ Smith is an RFA.

Most camp invites and even draftees are not signed to contracts at the time of development camp.  I would say this doesn't matter.

Haven’t they traditionally only brought guys to this camp up until they finished their ELC? That approach would explain Smith.

Arttu Ruostalainen should be an interesting watch. Same with Laaskonen

Ruostalainen has a regular number as pointed out by Chris Ostander

So yes to Thompson being a prospect, and no to CJ, based on this list.

Nylander being left off I found a bit surprising.

Thought there was some league wide rule that a player could only be invited to 3 prospect camps.  Definitely not positive on that.

Don’t think so. I seem to recall Bailey and/or Baptiste did 5.

might be #4 for Asplund and Thompson. Olofsson Borgen and Hickey have been around even longer, though each may have skipped in the past.

I’m real curious. Is that injury still nagging him? Remember all the talk of his great attitude last year, even though he didn’t skate due to injury. It’s almost like I expect him to pull some kind of stunt, even though nothing in his past suggests he will.

There's more smoke surrounding Alex than his brother, who plays in the Big Smoke.

The rule actually is that a player can't be required to attend more than 3 development camps.  But he can voluntarily attend more than 3.  (Rule 15.10)

It's unlikely he's still hurt, right? It's been so long now and apparently it was something minor, at least that's what they said at the time. Though I haven't heard a single update in a good while.
