The NHL Draft is over. The Boston Bruins made seven selections on Saturday, and now, the attention turns to Development Camp, which starts on Monday, June 29.
Bruins prospects will gather at Warrior Ice Arena in Brighton, as they do every year, the Monday after the draft, for a four-day-long camp that concludes July 2. The prospects will work with Adam McQuaid, the Director of Player Development, along with other members of the Bruins’ development staff throughout the week to display and continue developing their games.
After the Bruins made seven selections at the draft on Saturday, Don Sweeney said “the vast majority” of the draft class will be at Development Camp. “Even the two goaltenders, they’ll be able to be here.”
James Hagens will not participate this year, which shifts the spotlight to his BC teammate Dean Letourneau. The 6-foot-7 forward established himself at last year’s development camp before a 39-point (22-17–39) season in Chestnut Hill.
Also not joining the Bruins this year is sixth-round pick Kirill Yemelyanov, whose linemate, Matvei Kotkov, was drafted to the organization over the weekend. Cornell captain Ryan Walsh will also not be there, and Sweeney mentioned his cycle of offloading and onloading workouts, saying it is a “good opportunity for him to be in his real build-out phase.”
