I feel like Poehling may dominate this camp...

I feel like there are a few players that could get invited to the main camp and have a serious shot IF they impress at the rookie camp of them all I think Peohling, Suzuki, Brook, Fluery and Leskinen have the best shots at a roster spot  that said I don't see more than 2 or 3 making the Habs out of camp even if maybe 4 or 5 should. 

Best shots go to Peohling, Suzuki and either Leskinen or Brook (Leskinen only cause we need a top 4 LHD)

Get on it. We want reports, or video, or PBP, whatever works for you. No pressure. :P
