Blazers welcome import Justin Sigrist (Switzerland)
KAMLOOPS — Camp is underway for the Kamloops Blazers — starting with the rookies —- the draft picks, prospects and free agents the first two days.
Mostly it’s an exercise to get a look at the future and give those players a look at what a major junior camp is all about.
A few will be kept for the main camp, which starts Sunday, but the majority will be either released or sent back to their minor hockey teams.
A year ago the Blazers hit a home run when they were able to snag Rudolfs Balcers with the 41st overall pick in the Canadian Hockey League import draft.
