NTDP Goalie Camp
Well the invite only goalie camp is now over and Devin had an awesome time. Four days of goalie instruction by coaches from the NTDP to the NHL. He learned alot and feels he is faster and better than he was before the camp. The coaches told him they are excited to be working with him this summer (he will be going down three days a week). He was also able to hang around with the goalies who are currently in the NTDP. He was able to see the high school they attend and is now more gung ho than ever to make the program. All expenses were paid by the camp, skate sharpening as he needed it, they washed his clothes each day, gave them tape for their sticks and even warmed their gloves before going on the ice. He shared a hotel room with one other goalie and were bussed to and from the arena. He is spoiled now and wants more than ever to be a part of the national team. He will have to work hard and focus his energy on making the team. In two weeks he heads for the Soo, he is also excited about that. Then if he makes the cut he goes to Rochester NY in July. Its a good thing he loves his sport as it is a year round endeavor.
