Preparation The Goal Of Development Camp

CENTENNIAL, Colo.—Fans looking to see Colorado Avalanche prospects scrimmaging against one another will have to look elsewhere, as there will be none of that at development camp.

While on-ice activities are a welcomed departure from previous years, the idea is to have the players learning and growing, whether at the rink or away from it.

“To be honest with you, I’m not into scrimmaging in the beginning of July. I’m sure everybody standing up in the crowd would like to see them scrimmage,” said David Oliver, director of player development for the Avalanche.
