Shocked to see the Terriers are holding Spring Camp on the 18th and 19th of this month (as per their web site). They host an Anavet Cup game on the 18th then need to hit the road for games 3 and 4 in Humbolt. Either Blake and his staff are going to be very busy on those days or the up and coming talent won't get a real look as people removed from the staff will be running camp. I hope this does not cause a distraction as the Terriers will need to be prepared and bring their A game to match Humbolt.

Spring camps for most teams are fund raisers and a chance to find a diamond in the rough. The main stuff goes down in the fall. Ex players will run the spring camp and Blake/Paul/Jim/Frank will watch from the stands for the most part. Shouldn't get in the way at all.

who are the top prospects from portage going to camp?

craig neufeld. he played for mci blues in grade 10 so he's obviously good. not just anybody makes that team.

WRONG! Everybody makes that team. But craig is a good player for his age.

Terriers do not have to bring anything and will be sent home with nothing.

Hey there MJFan - your post doesn't make one bit of sense - in the sauce already?

For the record Craig was on the PV hawks this season. I think he got an award for his defensive play.

Won't matter. Blake will give Cockell a call and suck him in again so don't worry about recruiting any young kids.

Or...is it Neeps' turn again to donate to the Terrier cause...

I think some of this is because players are dictating which team they want to get traded to. Irwin is a good example. Glennie is another good example. Probably Ellement, just a few but I am sure there are many more

Yes, but didn't Hamm want to play elsewhere? Wondering if he thinks he should have stayed in Portage rather than going to the Kings which didn't turn out for him as he ended up in Winkler didn't he? Sometimes what you ask for doesn't turn out to be the best either.

Based on the D Portage has Hamm would not have made it anyways, at least not based on his performance in Winkler.

I hear Portage had Cockel face sized for a ring
