Marketing/Recruitment - West Coast Prep Camp | Coordinator/Coach - LGS
With the 2023-2024 National Hockey League season kicking off this week. Our team at West Coast Hockey Prep Camp would like to recognize all of our recent alumni who attended NHL training camps this Fall.
NHL training camps for the 2023-2024 season kicked off in early September. All 32 teams in the league must make the difficult decisions that get their team rosters to 23 before the start of the season kicks off on October 10, 2023. Of those attending NHL camps, there are the veterans and superstars that are essentially guaranteed spots on the roster and then there are those young and ambitious prospects that are looking to make big impressions and potentially nab a spot with the club.
NHL training camp rosters spots are reserved for the elite level players that have the best chance to play in the upcoming NHL season. Across the league, each team will only invite a select few of the most talented up-and-coming players. This year, 15 of these exceptional NHL prospects are alumni of West Coast Hockey Prep Camp.
These West Coast Hockey Prep Camp Alumni competed and battled all month to impress their respective NHL clubs hockey ops teams, and potentially land a spot on their opening night rosters.
