Nice to see we are in no rush to get to camp.
ReplyDeleteNice to see we only run one camp instead of wasting a bunch time with a rookie camp and dragging out the process of getting on with business
ReplyDeleteThere is no rookie camps because the canes have no money
ReplyDeleteThere is no rookie camp because that is the way Preston wanted to run it. Not a case of no money! Had he wanted a rookie camp the cost would have been built into the budget.Also if you knew the facts, you would know that the Hurricanes have a very big reserve fund! Enough of the negativity!

And if you want to know. there has never been a rookie even before Preston came here. It is a waste of time for the coaches, parents and kids who have no shot at even trying to make the team. Rookie camps are run by organizations to make money as they charge the kids who really have no chance of making it and will not get an invite to the main camp a participation fee. Glad to see Lethbridge doesnt get caught up this.
ReplyDeleteThere actually used to be a rookie camp in Leth every season. For several years in a row in the '90s and early 2000s... I know this because my brother and I both took part.
ReplyDeleteI attended a rookie camp years ago when Bartlett was the GM
ReplyDeleteThere is not a single rookie camp in the league who charges players...Junior A teams in Alberta do that, not WHL teams
