Should be fun.

[Night Train]

I've gone several times. They cut it short sometimes and go to the secondary rink, which is closed to the public. Now it's just 60 minutes for most outside of the scrimmage. It's freaking super cold in there. Bring a sweater.

Right.

[LabattBlue]

Disappointed the sessions are only an hour long.  It will take almost as long to drive back and forth from the burbs as amount of time spent watching. 
 

That being said, I will probably try and attend at least once.   Unfortunately cannot make the 3on3, as I already made plans.

Maybe you are referring to the sessions only. Because I’ve gone to the 3 on 3 scrimmage for several years and it’s always on the bigger rink. Usually a “fuller house” and exciting. And yes, it’s usually on the cold side. Those damn ice rinks 😂

When do they put out the prospect roster for Sunday?

It'll probably get posted tomorrow. Although, I think last year they were pretty late with it and it came out the 1st day.

I'm curious to see who they bring in as the extra goalies. Does Suchanek get another call?

I would imagine they bring him in. Metsa and Riley Fiddler Schultz were signed after dev camp appearances and they have had a good experience with Suchanek so far

[Brawndo]

 

Novikov and Neuchev listed 

[dudacek]

Not seeing Savoie or Kulich or Rosen or Levi on that list.

Not really surprised about Levi, and they hinted that players who had a long run might be exempt.

I don’t have like it though.

Looks like we will have to content ourselves with Benson and Russian watching.

We get our first looks at Novikov, Sardarian, and Neuchev, and I’m really curious to see whether Kisakov steps up after getting his feet wet last year.

Leinonen is another mystery box that intrigues me this year.

[Brawndo]

Here is an easier to read version of the list

No Matthew Savoie?

Giving some a break

Little disappointed Suchanek didn’t get an invite.

This guy looks like this year’s version:

Pretty sure he was the prospect who left Northeastern because he was stuck behind Levi.

So I tried to go today.  The number of cars VERY slowly circling Harborcenter about 15 minutes beforehand told me that the place was already full.  So I didn't bother parking 5 blocks away just to be turned around at the door.  But I'm betting it was pretty full.

[Brawndo]

 

[K-9]

Is Lindgren’s mom gonna be there?

[dudacek]

Johnson looks older and more self-assured than last year’s uncomfortable session.

Also had a session with Östlund who doesn’t look 15 any more and says his biggest focus is on getting bigger.

I am going to try and attend tomorrow or Thursday.

The guy I hope does really well this week is Leinonen. For his and all ours sake.

I was feeling the same way.

Adams says he is recovering from a stress factor in his foot and probably won’t be on the ice.
