34 players will hit the ice at the Penhold Multiplex Friday (3-5pm), Saturday (3:45-5:45pm) and Sunday (9-11am) with all three sessions open to the public.
If 34 seems like a high of players
number that’s because, compared to past years, it is. Usually,
somewhere around two dozen players come to town for this annual camp.
The increased camp roster will provide a new and interesting
dynamic.
“We’ll have enough players that we
can have 17 on each team, so we’ll scrimmage more than we did in
the past,” Rebels GM / Head Coach Brent Sutter told Greg Meachem
(@GregMeachem) of the Red Deer Advocate.
It makes sense. It can only help these
up and coming players to put them head to head and see what they’re
made of. Let them measure themselves against each other so see where
they are now and where they need to be in order to someday make this
team.
