I know this has been asked and answered, probably several times, but I went back a couple pages and couldn't find it:

What exactly is the schedule for dev and training camp?

I cant find the exact info anymore for some reason but I believe Training Camp was the 27th, and dev camp the week before. I could be off by a couple days though.

As New York Rangers’ scouts studied Brennan Othmann in the lead-up to the 2021 NHL Draft, their imaginations were filled with possibilities.

Some saw a potential top-six winger with an "elite shot" who could also complement their high-end skill players with his edgier style of play.

Others saw a player who could excel in the bottom six due to his physicality and competitive spirit.

"In today's game, with such an emphasis on skill, to have the combination of skill and compete and grit to get on the inside is hard to find," Rangers director of player development Jed Ortmeyer said. "When he was there at that pick, we were really excited about getting him."

Chmelar was -1 in 15:33.

Just to contextualize this, Chmelař is in the Finnish U20 league which isn't super strong. You want to see him have a big year. The Finnish U20 is nowhere near the CHL--Chmelař is 18, so what would you want to see him do if he was playing, say, in the OHL? Whatever you'd want to see him do in the OHL, you'd want to see more from him in the Finnish U20.

Same for Tärnström. He's 19. Sweden's J20 is better than the equivalent in Finland but is still not on par with the CHL. So what would you want a 19 year old to do in the CHL? Especially one who played 27 games against men last year. Think of him like Will Cuylle who played in the AHL last year and now at 19 is back in junior.

Aaltonen will be 21 in January. Too young to write off, but if his whole season is like today where he plays sparingly, or if he is a scratch, then you really have to question his future potential.

What we need to hope for, is Jokerit treating Chmelař the same way as his teammates Katajainen, Tenhovuori and Manninen, sending him to Kiekko-Vantaa (Mestis) on loan.

Chmelař joining the Jokerit organization is a bit of a mixed bag. There's no Liiga option for him, and I doubt he sees KHL time. Jokerit is stuck between a rock and a hard place in terms of developing their prospects after leaving Liiga. It caused a rift between them and basically everyone else in Finnish hockey with Liiga teams unanimously agreeing to not play games against Jokerit during pre-season nor agree to loan deals with the team in Helsinki even agreeing that a player who represents Jokerit, isn't allowed to play in Liiga that same season.

That "boycott" was later ruled to violate EU law. I haven't followed Jokerit as closely in the last 2 years but it's safe to say that Liiga teams aren't jumping at the opportunity to do business with the team that left Liiga and caused teams to suffer financially because of it.

Tärnström has 1+1 today. Haven't see a box score for any other stats.

Chmelař is the 3RW today for Jokerit U20.

SHL games today but Henriksson and Edström are over here.

Väisänen has a game later. He'll be on the third line to start. Aaltonen also has a game and he's listed as the 4RW.

I dont believe Edstrom is here, I think he is still with Rogle.

Edström isn't eligible to join our dev camp since he's signed to a pro contract. With that restriction, he'd need to be on an ELC to be allowed to attend Rangers events in-season.
