And Hershey camp starts on Monday right? Can’t say there are any surprises in there.
A man must have a code.
The WSH ethic of late has been: Earn it. Whether you’re a young D or something else, you don’t get anything based on your draft position, including exhibition games…
Has Broda been signed, then? Or am I thinking of the wrong WHL kid who doesn’t yet have a pro contract, but still has one more year of Junior eligibility?
Or am I assuming too much that Broda’s been cut because Hershey camp is starting?

Broda has not yet been signed. In all likelihood, he’s headed back to the WHL.

Interesting note from KPD:
If the Capitals can’t find space on the varsity roster, they’ve told Christopher Bourque that they’ll try to find him a new NHL port of call rather than dish the ex-BU winger back to Hershey (AHL).

Via Tarik’s Twitter:
Chris Bourque, btw, denied a story in today’s Boston Globe suggesting he’s been told he’ll be traded if he doesn’t make the Caps’ roster.

1.) Who ya gonna believe, Kevin Paul Dupont or TEB?
2.) What’s Bourque going to say when asked, “Yes?”
3.) It’s more likely a team-agent conversation than a team-player conversation, so it’s likely that Bourque hasn’t been told that. Ahem.
You can’t believe everything you read on the internet. That’s how WWI got started.

Well I’m still rooting for Finley, Bruess and Hauswirth to make the team in Hershey….The issue with Bourque is what are the odds of him clearing waivers? I’d say slim so isn’t that a reason to trade him vice try and send him to Hershey if you’re GMGM this way you get something for him you might want….

I sure hope everything breakable in the locker room was nailed down when they told Finley he was being reassigned… ;-)
Actually, none of the names on the list are a surprise, and it looks like Hershey and South Carolina will have lots of quality talent to defend their championships with…
Let's go Caps!
I wouldn’t worry about it — lawnmowers have been banned from locker rooms for years.

I would be amazed if someone didn’t leave a toy lawnmower in Finley’s locker sometime in camp.
