Where's Vey? Or maybe they're trading Richardson?

Split the whole crowd up into three groups (like the oilers). I think it is 61 players total (I wonder how many NHL centres are there...)

Detroit is doing the 3 sqd thing too... Sure other teams will do the same with 60+ players in training camp.

These scrimmages will have better skill and hopefully better play than the yst.

Is Carol in Whistler? Hope that is a perk of her job.

Nothing like setting Vey up for success eh? Another rookie and a scrub. Gaunce/Lain/Grenier sounds like the Comets 2nd or 3rd line this year.

That or they're hoping he'll out-shine those other players so bad when they make the first round of cuts he's a lock to move over with the big boys.

First day on ice at camp. Might me easier to shine with two lesser lights on the same line?

Any chance we will see any of these scrimmages on the team site? Sometimes see good battles between guys wanting to make the team or at least some emotion and chippy play and who has chemistry, even if they start the season in Utica..

You guys are ahead of me on the line combinations, but there will be time to get caught up on that over the weekend. Will probably be most significant at Sunday's scrimmage.

Here's the new blog:

I know you're trying to troll me. But in fact you are right. They are slowing down, and in the next 2 - 3 years I expect them to be the 2nd line on this team, and eventually the 2nd PP as well.

The quicker guys like Horvat, Shink, Virtanen develop the quicker they start stealing ice time.

no not a troll directed at you (ok yes it was), i just feel (and will get razed about it again) that the time is to move them now, since as you mentioned they have the highest value right now
