Update: Here’s the lineup

Players invited to camp

As always, D Noah Juulsen is out of action due to a concussion

Players to watch:

  • D #59 – Dalton Thrower: The B.C. native proved to be a huge difference last game against the leafs He provided an assist and the eventual game-winning goal. Look for him to be a bigger factor on the offence.
  • C #54 – Charles Hudon: The best part of having a prospect like Hudon is that he is always a threat on the ice. He made good on that reputation last game, potting two goals and making some dazzling plays on the way.
