Is anyone going? I’d like to hear about it but can’t attend.

The Bruins did an official live-blog which is (thankfully) pretty short (and possibly still going): http://bbru.in/aAQSiS

Probably that he’s an 18-year-old kid that hasn’t even started development camp, much less training camp or officially made the team?
The actual details of the contract are pretty much hammered out by the CBA already, so it’s just a matter of the Bruins front office decisively saying “Okay, you’re on the team this year” and assuming it won’t be better to let him develop for a year in the OHL.

Blah - this isn't Phoenix
Much different choosing not to play on a last place team in a complete non-hockey environment then to walk away from an original six team who is in the top 3rd of the league.
Indeed. He’s shown enthusiasm about joining a potential contender.

We’ve got three years to worry about that.

That’s debateable. :)
Maybe he sees the way Savard, and Thomas are being treated and walks??
It’s a slow day….I’m obviously not being 100% serious. :)
I really hope Wheeler doesn't put himself in the category of Savvy or Thomas
more likely he may look at how Lucic and Krecji were already resigned though
if he really wants 3.75m+ for having 5 more assists than Michael Ryder, he can walk.

The Krejci deal was an awesome one, the Looch one….well, I still think he was grossly overpaid (which I can’t hold against him).
Both are young enough to play into their contracts
Though I agree Looch’s deal was a bit surprising given his lack of offensive touch to date.
I think he’s got tremendous upside though
sadly, I do not...
and Lucic is one of my favorite players on this team. I don’t know that he would be a top 3 guy on any other team (maybe not even a top 6), and where would one go from here after this contract ends? I know, it’s a ways off…but do you give a (30 pts avg) guy a raise from 4 mil. a year??
I think the $3.5 -5.5M range for top 3 forwards is where the NHL is these days
and by that end a healthy Looch is the top LW on the B’s.
I can see where you’d be considered with his production equaling his pay, but I’m more concerned with Ryder’s $4M and was with Wides $4M then Looch’s
It was perhaps a bit much for last years points, but at then end of this contract I think you’ll be singing a different tune. Looch is going to be a 20 goal scorer with a solid all around game, minimally.
Lucic would have to not be hurt to really play into his contract…and have a year like 08-09 to boot.

in reply to you both...
I agree, I think he has the potential…..we’ll just have to hope for fewer injuries. I think with Horton being on the same line, they can both compliment each other and we can expect to see better numbers all around.
Jordan Caron didn’t sign until almost a year after he was drafted.

Looking past Seguin
I hope Caron and Colborne (and others) can show something this year and make a push to get on the big squad. We can always use another “breakout season” rookie.
JARED KNIGHT!

Don't know much about him, but...
I would eagerly anticipate a Knight-Ryder line.

p.s. Jared is a right wing whose highlight reel consists of him going to the net and banging home tip-ins and rebounds. Led his team in goals. Found out halfway through the year that he had diabetes and is now getting treated for it, which is making him a better hockey player.
I’m hoping he pans out for the Bruins is all.

thats the most convincing reason ive heard all off season to keep ryder around
by BlueNGoldBomber on Jul 7, 2010 11:17 PM EDT up reply actions
I'm also curious about Caron
A guy who has size and crashes the net? Maybe he can rub off on Wheels a bit.
I’m also curious to see how the C’s work on the wings. I.E. Tyler and Joe likely get a decent amount of time on the left wing and at center, seeing as how the best B’s team has Savard on it….and he’s still on it at present.
If Tyler and Colborne get a majority of time at C, then I think Savard is definitely gonzo.
How to say all the right things
from Fluto at Boston.com
"If the Bruins told me they wanted me to play goalie to be on the Bruins,’’ Colborne said with a smile yesterday, "I’d do that.’’

i really like the vibe that colborne, caron and seguin are all giving off. maybe throw them on a line together… see what happens?? even if it is just on a few game trial, let them feel each other out, caron could center seguin and colbs. obviously not this year, theres no chance that all 3 of them make the roster this year, but maybe opening night 2011, seguin – caron – colborne is your third line??

i find it weird that the old bruins logo is still displayed at ristuccia
by BlueNGoldBomber on Jul 7, 2010 11:21 PM EDT reply actions
Might be an old picture.

I think I took that picture at rookie camp 2 years ago.
by Stanley Cup of Chowder on Jul 8, 2010 5:43 PM EDT up reply actions
I guess it doesn't make much of a difference...
But it is a bit weird. Some teams and TV networks still use the old logo too. I guess the concepts are the same so it’s good…kinda.
Because of PC's poor cap management...
the new logo is seeking arbitration,The logo’s agent will be using Washington and Vancouver as examples of current logo salaries. The Bruins and Ristuccia Arena are hopeful that a deal can be worked out before the arbitration date.
It’s not really surprising that they haven’t updated it. They haven’t updated much at that place. The Bruins publicly said that they want them to renovate it so it is more like what an NHL practice facility should be or they will explore other options.
by Stanley Cup of Chowder on Jul 8, 2010 5:46 PM EDT up reply actions
They ought to hook up with one of the local colleges and get a practice facility that suits both. Might get it closer to the city too.
The problem there is that ice time and space is limited. The Bruins probably want a situation where they can have their own space and have some control over schedules. What they should do is build their own practice facility like other teams have done.

Flyers: http://voorhees.flyersskatezone.com/
I doubt that will happen anytime soon, though.

Apparently nearly 2k people showed up on Saturday for this. Wow.
though I can’t blame them…I’d have gone too but I was away all weekend.

That is impressive considering it usually just a handful of kids with their parents and a few creepy 45 year old autograph seekers in the parking lot.

Question to anyone that may have attended.....
Was CJ there? Seems to me like he should have been. I don’t think I have seen mention of his name with the prospect camp.
I didn’t make it out this year, but in past years he was there in the stands (with a roster in his hand by the way). He sits back and watches and lets Don Sweeney, the assistant coaches, and the minor league coaches run the show. I assume he was there for part of camp this year, but I don’t know.
