Training camp schedule

Here's the camp schedule, as released by the Kings. What's amazing to me is that there's only nine days in El Segundo. After that, it's off to Vegas, then Denver, then Austria.

As expected, Oleg Tverdovsky is not on the training-camp roster, so that era is over...

Rich, do you happen to have a numerical roster handy that you could provide for us? Thanks!

It looks like the Kings play in a non-NHL related tournament. Do they do this every year or is it something for this year only b/c of the games in London ? I can't imagine they use their full roster or else it increases their chances of injury.

YAY! Kudos to the person who convinced them that a 9:30 practice is early enough. Now the rush hour traffic can lessen before we make the drive and we can see all the players on the ice the full time.

Can't believe the long wait is over! Unreal that the first game is two days into camp. It's good to see that a large part of the team is already on the ice and practicing together.

Thanks for the update.
