We’re now very much into August and in just five weeks, the Calgary Flames’ youngsters will report for prospect camp (and then head to Penticton for the rookie tournament). The summer is winding down.

The travel won’t be great for the team, but when they’re home, they’re going to get much more exposure to the Flames’ management and their development staff than they would have in Stockton (or elsewhere).
