ThaManbeast Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 I know Virtanen is still out from his shoulder surgery, and McCann has mono. But which other prospects won't be attending this year's camp? Demko? Tryamkin? Forsling? Liberati won't but will Hutton or Pettit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aGENT Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 I believe Cassels is out at this point as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zombieksa Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 I believe Cassels is out at this point as well. Cassels will be re-evaluated on Thursday if I recall correctly. He may still get to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aGENT Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Cassels will be re-evaluated on Thursday if I recall correctly. He may still get to play. I'm not expecting much though. A couple months gone with mono, little to no training or skating and his body still recovering do not bode well for him to excel at camp. He's likely to have a pretty rough start to his Jr. season too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pettit is still hurt, Cassels may be a go, none of our NCAA prospects will be there. Tryamkin and Forsling have already started their seasons. Everyone else should be there; Blomstrand isn't on the camp roster but without any news coming out about him I'm guessing that's just an accidental omission.

He'll be with the Flyers farm team which means Cassels will be promoted to bigger roles/playing time which he will get more chances to succeed in.

I think what he meant is not opportunity but more like without summer training, Cassels won't be in a good enough shape to play well in OHL.

Cassels was already playing top line with Laughton and MDC last season so he won't play bigger roles but carry more responsibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, yea that he'll get off to slow start but pick up as he gets clicking.Cassels was already playing top line with Laughton and MDC last season so he won't play bigger roles but carry more responsibility. He'll get a lot more PP time and be deployed in the offensive zone more I'd assume. Last year he wasn't consistently playing with those two but this year, him and MDC will likely be a go-to pairing on offense. He'll develop a lot.

Yeah, I was wondering why Blomstrand wasn't in Penticton. Maybe he's staying in Sweden for the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think what he meant is not opportunity but more like without summer training, Cassels won't be in a good enough shape to play well in OHL. Yup. Oh, yea that he'll get off to slow start but pick up as he gets clicking. We'll see. Mono's a @#$%...really depends on how much of a toll it's taken on his body and how quickly he can recover and get back lost muscle mass, cardio etc. Then there's his skating, game timing etc. He's likely to have a rough start and that could also affect his confidence, ability to make the WJC etc, etc. Hopefully he and his coaching, teammates etc are understanding and patient of the situation and the kid doesn't put too much pressure on himself out of the gate. Same with McCann. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allt svartnar Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Yeah, I was wondering why Blomstrand wasn't in Penticton. Maybe he's staying in Sweden for the season. Probably because he has already played two and a half pro seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salmonberries Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Yeah, it doesn't look like Blomstrand is in camp. Looks like maybe he's not in Benning's plans. Anyway, another year in Kalamazoo isn't in the cards for him it doesn't seem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Looks like Blomstrand is on the Kalamazoo Wings Training Camp Roster. So at least he hasn't vanished. http://kwings.com.ismmedia.com/ISM3/std-content/repos/Top/Media/K-Wings%20Training%20Camp%20Roster.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
