Kyle Capobianco is the only player present at the Coyotes’ annual rookie camp who has played in the NHL. Incidentally, he’s one of only a few players at camp who has a shot at cracking a deep NHL roster.
The Coyotes are still considered a young team by most standards. After all, rookies accounted for 121 of Arizona's 553 total points last season and have accounted for more than 100 points in each of the last three seasons.
But it doesn’t seem as though 2018-19 will follow that trend.
As the club’s annual rookie camp kicked off Friday at the Ice Den Scottsdale, there were only a handful of players on the roster who could realistically be called up by the Coyotes at some point this season.
