Our special project for the Lightning's rookie camp this week required getting a handful of prospects to sign their pictures with Colin. After tonight's visit, that's crossed off the to-do list.
Swedish defensemen
Victor Hedman, right, the Lightning's No. 1 pick in at the 2009 NHL Entry Draft, and
Erik Gustaffson, sandwich Colin after the
Young Guns camp ended. Gustaffson, who plays for the University of Northern Michigan, isn't attending rookie camp.
Even without his name and number on his practice jersey, defenseman
Vladimir Mihalik, the Lightning's No. 1 pick in 2005, is easy to pick out among players. At 6 foot 7, he's the tallest one in camp.
Despite being born in Slovakia, center
Juraj Simek, Vancouver's sixth-round pick in 2006, has twice represented Switzerland at the World Junior Championships.
Goalie
Dustin Tokarski, a fifth-round pick in 2008, does nothing but win. After leading the Spokane Chiefs to the 2008 Memorial Cup championship, claiming MVP honors, Tokarski backed it up with a gold medal for
Team Canada at the 2009 World Junior Championships.
