I can't see how devoting coaching time to 40 guys who aren't going to play in the NHL is a wise use of time or resources.MF37https://www.blogger.com/profile/10238252282255067686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24746874.post-86192030733748309922010-09-16T21:15:02.244-04:002010-09-16T21:15:02.244-04:00The NHL camp contains the Marlies ENTIRE roster, p...The NHL camp contains the Marlies ENTIRE roster, plus an extra 10 players that will either end up in Reading in the ECHL or in another league.<br /><br />AHL Camp can't even open until the cuts happen... this isn't abnormal for NHL training camp for the record.<br /><br />Buffalo invited 58 players to it's camp.
