GDT: 2013 Training Camp Thread (Camp opens weekend of 1/11; NHL games start 1/19)

Yes, but we're not going to tell you.

It's "Meet the Players". It's basically a chance to get things signed & spend about 30 seconds talking to a player. Bring 1 or 2 things to get signed. Expect long lines. (Not that I'm complaining. It's free.)

I see, well hopefully in that 30 seconds I can talk one of the players into going to Red Lobster and hanging out with me, my treat.

Doesn't sound good. We will know soon when camp starts.

Brings back memories of Allison and Deadmarsh.

You would think one would choose to omit "A hungry Drew Doughty" in favor of just "Drew Doughty", especially with Twitter's 40 character limit.

A reality show in the works called Drew Doughty's Hunger games....

So, he'll be back by Christmas? Oh... too late for that

Mitchell has been week-to-week with a knee before, I believe.

a hungry drew doughty is a hamburgers nightmare

SOunds like Drew is gunning for a record year :

Nichols_NHLPool A hungry Drew Doughty worked out w/jr team and trainer, weighs 205. Determined to have Norris-caliber season.

It could also mean that he's just plain hungry...which is more likely the case

Thanks for making my morning.

NHLPA has ratified the agreement. Still requires signed MOA from both sides.

Game time 7:30 p.m.

@Clippers just announced next Saturday's game vs. Washington is at 12:30, so that would mean @LAKingshttps://twitter.com/search?q=#LAKings&src=hash will open their season at 7:30 p.m.

 

[ScoreZeGoals]

Fantastic news

 

[FrozenKing18]

Alright!

Helene Elliott @heleneothelen
Just checked with Kings. Earlier report that Kings' game on Jan. 19 would be moved to 7:30 is NOT true.

 

[Ron*]

Dueling twitters?

Helene Elliott ‏@helenenothelen
Kings and Clippers have both told me there is NO truth to earlier report of Kings and Clips flipping start times next Sat. Kings still noon

Elliott Teaford ‏@ElliottTeaford
Told there was a mistake on scoreboard at #Clippers game. No change to LAC start next Sat. So #LAKings still a nooner for opener.

 

[Ron*]

So, **** it.

 

[Vamos Rafa]

So any vids or pics from the training camp? (have they even started yet?)

It's my understanding training camps cannot start until the MOU is signed, and that hasn't happened yet. Maybe later today.

No. Won't until vote comes out and MOU is signed, now likely tomorrow.

EDIT: I see that the vote came out, 89% of players voted and 98% of those voted "yes". Now just waiting on MOU.

 

[Ron*]

Helene Elliott @helenenothelen
To recap: we are still waiting for NHL and NHLPA to sign MOU, hoping it comes ASAP. And until MOU is signed by NHL and NHLPA we are SOL as far as getting schedule.

Yup.

 

[Vamos Rafa]

Just checked the Wizards' schedule. They have a game on Friday in Denver so they are on the second night of a back-to-back coming into the Clipper game. There is no way they will re-schedule the game. NBA teams (and NHL teams) don't play day games after a night game. You can stop blaming the Clippers now. Just keep blaming the lockout for this.
