    In the Locker Room 

    Casey on going through development camp a second time: "It was a great week. Having gone through it again, I can't say if this one was better than last year or if last year was better than this year. It was just a lot of fun. They did such a good job getting us bonded in all the off-ice stuff, and it ended up being the most fun week. I love it here, and this is a great camp."

    Squires on what he is going to takeaway from development camp: "Take all the resources and use them. You got to take advantage of everybody around you. For me, it's continuing to get stronger and faster. That's one thing that I really want to work on (and) I'm committed to doing that. I think being here and meeting the staff, they're invested in me as a player, and I'm really looking forward to working with them and showing them my commitment to getting better. I'm a young player, and this is a first step in the road, and it was exciting to get my toes in the water."

    Rowe on what he learned this week: "It's like Mr. Fitzgerald said, just competition and compete. You have to get better. You have to want to get better. The tangible skills they'll come the skating, the shot, the hands. They'll come with training. The intangible things like that desire to compete and that effort and attitude every time you show up to the rink, I think that's what separates the pros from the amateurs."
