Training Camp Standouts

Haven't seen any team teal weigh-ins.

Celebrini has surpassed even our fans' lofty expectations through camp and one preseason game. We're stoked.

Cagnoni continues to surprise people -- there are a lot of fan detractors just because the deck is stacked against a 5'9" LD making the NHL, but he looked like a PP1 QB in a preseason game as a 19 year old. Lots of us hoping he makes it to the AHL and marinates some more.

Nobody else is standing out in any way that (imho) warrants mentioning on a thread like this.

Grebenkin and Cowan have had good camps for the leafs so far.

Would like to throw a shout in for Jett Luchanko for the Flyers. A heavily criticized pick, but he has been absolutely outstanding through the rookie games and his first pre-season game where he picked up 2 assists and was all over the place, creating.

Even the beats are commenting on how he could potentially enter the Flyers line-up right now as a 3C as an 18 year old. His speed, passing and IQ are very noticeable, and he's an awesome PKer, even competing with Michkov as the best player so far in camp (with some even saying he's outshone him). Plus, he's a year younger.

He definitely pops, and is a good kid so great (potential) pick by the Flyers, after much criticism. Will probably get sent down still but he's had a great showing.

I watched Philly vs Washington yesterday. I tought Bobby Brink was the best player on the ice

Absolutely was. But he’s a 23 year old who is trying to carve out a roster slot, not a barely 18 year old who may challenge for one as well.

Still can't believe Lane Hutson texted Friedman to tell him to watch out for Lane Hutson this season.

Does Michkov count or he's already a veteran NHLer?

As a Jets fan, really excited to see how Hutson can utilize Laine on the powerplay. In Winnipeg every pass to him on the powerplay was telegraphed and that was already enough a lot of the time. Feel like Hutson is deceptive enough to open Laine up a bit more and has the passing to hit his wheelhouse.

Grushnikov, Brzustewicz, Coronato, all look like they want NHL jobs based on the prospect tourney + preseason.
Vote Adam Klapka for 4RW.
Honzek has been impressive, his size and skating makes me believe he has a NHL 100+ games floor.

The Ducks barred fans from live streaming their training camp sessions so I can only go off of what others have said and the rookie tournament:

you gotta be a special kind of freak to live stream training camp sessions
