DeNiro Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Not a whole lot of star talent there but it will be good to see Palmu and Gadjovich reunited, plus get a closer look at Lind, DiPietro and Rathbone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pepe Silvia Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 I'm guessing no Pettersson. But no Demko? Dahlen? Chatfield? Lockwood? Jasek? Brisebois? Ten bucks is ten bucks, but I'd really like to see more of the top prospects attending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dhaliwal had the scoop a while back: Hopefully Keeper will also be confirmed to be attending once the official camp roster is released. Some discussion, quotes, and links on Poolman and Keeper in this thread: Josh Teves is a solid invite. He’s been listed among the top NCAA free agents: http://lastwordonhockey.com/2018/03/08/2018-college-hockey-free-agents-3/ Josh Teves, Left Defence, Princeton University, 6’0″ 170 lbs, Junior Teves has put up six goals and 28 points in 26 games this season. Teves is a slick skater, with good speed in both directions, and excellent pivots and crossovers. This allows him to cover a lot of ice, and to play an effective two-way game. He can skate the puck out of danger in his end, as well as lead the rush on the attack. Teves also has very good playmaking skills, which he can use in transition, or in playing the point on the powerplay. He is strong positionally and has a quick stick, but must improve his size and strength to succeed in the professional game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more college free agent defenseman we can get a look at the better. If we can find another Tanev or Stecher it will help out depth on D alot. You notice the theme seems to be former BCHL players? I counted at least 5 invites who played in the BCHL and are now in the NCAA. Adam Rockwood is another interesting invite. Small skilled forward who put up big points in the BCHL and won a cup there with his hometown Express. Moved on to Wisconsin where he didn't have much success and was diagnosed with an enzyme deficiency which affected his metabolism. Was able to learn how to manage that and then recently put up big points after transferring to Nothern Michigan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Adam Rockwood has an interesting story. The coach that recruited him to Wisconsin got fired and Adam ended up cut from the team by the new coach. He was redshirted a year so he could transfer to another NCAA program. Spent that year in the gym and packed on 10-15 lbs of muscle. Came back with Northern Michigan and scored 48 points in 43 games his junior season. EDIT: @DeNiro: put our posts together on Rockwood and his story is even more interesting Hope he makes it. A Rockwood/Lockwood combination would be pretty fun on the play by play.

No Pettersson, it would appear: Not surprised at the others not being there since they all have at least one year of pro experience already and Lockwood is still recovering from shoulder surgery.

86Viking Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Jarid Lukosevicius.... Pretty solid offensive numbers the last two years at U of Denver. No idea why its all highlighted as I type still...ugghhh technology! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quantum Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Well, the highlights of this camp will be the new prospects who we draft next week. Whoever is the 7th overall pick we take (unless it's moved) should be the star of the show. I'm sure Elias Petersson may show up but with his thumb injury, management may want to let Petersson focus on training above everything else. Petersson will be here for training camp, which is what matters. Also, those complaining about Demko not being on the list, I'm pretty sure he's not eligble for prospects camp anymore. I think players with more than 2 years or 3 years AHL experience aren't allowed to be there but I could be TOTALLY WRONG. I'm sure it's optional for the AHL guys to go and most want to train. Wouldn't be surprised if a guy like Chatfield, Briesbois, or Jasek is a last minute addition. I'm not surprised Lockwood isn't coming this year. He has to pay his way to Vancouver because of NCAA rules and he's injured. Doesn't seem worth it. I bet Lockwood signs in March anyways. The guys I'm interested in from the invitee list are Tanner MacMaster and Colton Poolman. Poolman is a former teammate of Brock's and a defenseman. He most likely won't be swayed to sign a contract with the Canucks this summer but could be a guy we have to keep an eye on in March of next year. I also really like Tanner MacMaster. If it weren't for Jasek's incredible Utica debut, all eyes would be on MacMaster. MacMaster was almost as good as Jasek when he joined the Utica lineup. He's got an AHL deal next year but I wouldn't be shocked if a strong showing at this summer's prospect camp convinces the Canucks to offer MacMaster an entry level deal (similar to what the Canucks did for Carcone a few years ago and Ronalds Kenins a few years before that). I feel like MacMaster could be a really good depth piece moving forward and I'd hate to see MacMaster go the way of Curtis Valk/Yanni Gourde/Anotine Roussel as a guy on the Canucks radar who they let slip to another organization who actually sees value in them (and in Gourde/Roussel's cases become actual NHLers who contribute). We'll likely get more invitees announced after the draft. Still, this is one of my favorite parts of the summer. Can't wait for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most interesting for me is Josh Teves 23, 6'0, D man College GP 31 - Pts 33 Rest of the other 5 players I looked at stats were not alarming, maybe fill spot in AHL... Hope we sign a very good college D man with some skill...There are 4-5 real good once, not sure if any team have been signed them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would be maybe 15th on Canucks prospects list under 23...Would not sign him.. Gp 41 -- 32 Pts GP 44-- 34 Pts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
