The Calgary Flames will be opening their training camp this week for players who are not rookies. Beyond all the fresh, young prospects who are looking to make the team, they also have five veteran players who are best classified under the “hopeful” section of the camp.
Since there are a few potential openings due to contract holdouts and injuries, there is a good chance that at least one of the five players on a professional tryout gets a serious look from Flames’ brass. If Tanner Glass can play his way onto an NHL roster from a good camp, then truly anything can happen.
