There are 2 squads for development camp. First squad played yesterday with some rotations for the game today. Some notable players included Lazar, Perlini, Reinhart, Ritchie, Fleury, Morin, Nurse, Bennett, Ekblad.
Horvat's playing on the 2nd line in the development camp game vs. Russia tonight @ 4pm. I think there is a free stream to watch the game here: http://stats.hockeycanada.ca/schedule/league_instance/20720?subseason=165586
Interesting insight. At the beginning of the video when the runner came up and told Benning "I'll bring you whichever jersey you tell me to bring you" "We'll see what he does here, alright?" (Referring to the fact that NYI haven't picked yet). Interesting to see that Benning says "Virtanen" right away even though, at the time, Dal Colle was still a possible pick..
Not from TSN but:

Have learned the #Canucks have called the agent for UFA Dave Bolland. General talks have taken place.

The Bolland camp won't do anything with Vancouver until they resolve the Ryan Kesler situation.
Didn't think it was worthy of it's own thread.
First off, that is incorrect. He was an associate coach for 2 years with the Stars. Secondly, Where do you think all NHL coaches started? I'd rather have someone with a fresh vision than the same old recycled NHL coaches.
Here's his interview in case anyone wants to listen:

Also Sam Reinhart interview on the Team1040:

Just because there is no real "clear cut" #1 player. This draft is actually pretty good. Benning said so himself... and I trust his word more than any media outlet saying otherwise.
