60 players invited to the Canadiens camp

[content-ads] What’s interesting to note is that there are only two junior players attending this year’s camp.

We’re talking about Hayden Paupanekis – who missed the rookie camp due to mononucleosis – and Owen Protz, who really impressed the officials in the two games at the Bell Centre last weekend. It’s interesting to see Protz get a better audition. And it would be cool too, to see him play a pre-season game… because he’s proven he deserves it in my eyes. Remember that the Canadiens will play six pre-season games this year. It will be..

• Monday, September 22 against the Penguins (Bell Centre)
• Tuesday, September 23 against the Flyers (Bell Centre)
• Thursday, September 25 vs. Leafs (Bell Centre)
• Saturday, September 27 vs. Leafs (Toronto)
• Tuesday, September 30 vs. Senators (Quebec City)
• Saturday, October 4 vs. Senators (Bell Centre)

Some players will be cut between now and the last pre-season game, and we’ll see some guys get cut along the way. Some youngsters will be worth keeping an eye on, others will have to fight hard to get a position or leave a good calling card in Montreal… and it’ll be especially interesting to see which players will be able to impress management. And it all starts tomorrow. Finally! [spacer title=’Overtime’] – Oh.

– Already.

– Logical.

– He can still give it.
