wings1110 184 Report post Posted July 8, 2011 (edited) If I'm correct (dont know juniors rules) but I think it's either back to the CHL or NHL only... Not sure though. Can somebody that knows the rules please explain them? yup, you are correct jurco isnt old enough, according to the agreement between the CHL and AHL. /CHL agreement states that a player with junior eligibility signed by an NHL team must be returned to his CHL team if he's not playing in the NHL. It's part of a deal that provides CHL money for players produced (sort of like the IIHF agreement between the NHL and European countries). The NHL agrees to send the teenagers back because CHL. Specifically, the rule says that if a player played in junior before they were drafted by the NHL, then they have to either be 20 years old by Dec. 31 OR have played four years of CHL junior in order to play in the minors . That second condition rarely comes into effect. It would only apply to players who began in the CHL at age 15. or they have to play 10 nhl games to be sent to the AHL.

achildr1 255 Report post Posted July 8, 2011 Good camp today. Nice check that Smith threw on Ferraro (sp). Not sure why unless there was some good nature chirping going on lol. I think they found a gem Petr Mrazek. Can't wait to see him up in GR. Looked great out there. Hopefully it'll light a fire under Landon and he'll start living up to his draft position... The stuff I've read about Mrazek is leading more and more to him being our goalie of the future. Makes me happy since McCullom is slipping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jusek 437 Report post Posted July 8, 2011 Malik's obeservations from the camp: Thomas McCollum: He's bigger in his stance, more composed and compact in his movements and he's better laterally, but again, rebounds still come off him funny. Petr Mrazek: Still a tremendously technically sound butterfly goaltender, possibly wearing the same Reebok leg pads and Vaughn gloves he wore during training camp, and no longer leaf-thin off the ice. Brendan Smith: I'm not sure that he's NHL-ready, but even compared to training camp, he's learned to not take that extra half-second to make a decision before moving the puck. He's more positionally sound, relying on his skating a little less to make up for mistakes, and he remains energetic, enthusiastic and ever-so-slightly nasty at times. Adam Almqvist: Not as small as before but can get turned around pretty easily on the rush. Brian Lashoff: Utterly and completely solid as a stay-at-home defenseman who's big, strong, smart and a proficient puck-mover. Nick Jensen: Going into his second season with the Saint Cloud State Huskies with much more confidence and strength. Looks sharp. Xavier Ouellet: Even from a first glance, he's superbly skilled. Nice hands. Ryan Sproul: Frickin' huge, technically proficient. Richard Nedomlel: May have been made dizzy not only by antibiotics, but also his size. Dear me, he's a frickin' elk on ice. Gustav Nyquist: The only player not wearing Reebok or CCM gloves—custom-made Warriors instead. Energetic, enthusiastic, easygoing and very skilled, but still needs to fill out a bit. Trevor Parkes: Having the contract doesn't mean he's not still driven to prove people wrong and mash a few players into the boards in the process during every shift. Willie Coetzee: Still a whirling dervish. When the puck and he go in the same direction, pretty things happen. Landon Ferraro: Looks more confident in himself. Still, like McCollum, he can get frustrated and let things bug him. Tomas Jurco: The Slovaks must make these kids in a factory. Same wide-legged skating stride as Tomas Kopecky or Marian Hossa, same posture, same toe curve on the stick (I think), same tinted visor, slick moves, and a little awestruck. Louis-Marc Aubry: If he can grow into his massive frame and continue to display the kinds of hands and nose for the net he did without contact when the quarters get close, wow. Mitchell Callahan: Says he's got to wear a visor for insurance purposes. Now Kris Draper-ripped. Still endlessly enthusiastic and gritty, good hands, nose for the net, missing two front teeth as usual. Marek Tvrdon: I had a hard time trying to figure out whether his wide-shouldered skating stance was due to his size or because he was still wearing more shoulder protection than the average player. Let's just say that he almost immediately showed me why the Wings picked him, and why he was picked when he was picked. Philippe Hudon: Frickin' big and has four years of college eligibility to go. Tyson Teichmann: Teichnically proficient, spelling error intended. That was the first day. http://www.kuklaskor..._a_light_skate/ The link also includes some videos and interviews.

VM1138 1,921 Report post Posted July 8, 2011 "I wouldn't say I'm impatient, but I want to be there," Smith said of the NHL. "Maybe I want to reach it sooner than I need it. They're obviously going to tell me if I'm ready. Until then, I'm going to work my (butt) off and figure it out then." -Brendan Smith Hard not to get excited for this guy. He's impressing everyone, and what's more is he seems to have a really good attitude about having to be "overripe" unlike some of the other prospects the Wings have dealt with the past few years. Trust in Kenny, Brendan, he knows what he's doing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dimaline312000 51 Report post Posted July 8, 2011 Jiri Fischer speaks Lidstrom-esque English. Hopefully redwings.com shows more videos and pictures from development camp. There were a few pictures on Facebook but I can't remember if the Detroit Red Wings Training Camp Page provided them or the Red Wings Page but there were a few on facebook.
