Arizona Coyotes prospects have gathered at Gila River Arena and survived rookie camp. It was the most talent-filled prelude to the preseason in Coyotes’ history.
The level of unbelievable ability on the ice, the vast majority of which won’t even make the roster for this upcoming season, is breathtaking.
Most of the 2016-17 roster appears set. But with this skillful crew, there’s room for a couple of blue-line and forward surprises.
I’m hoping there’s an early October shocker, where a player steps up his game and absolutely blows the socks off the coaching staff. With just a few open spots, there’s space for only 23 players.
