A Guide to 2017 Bruins Development Camp

BOSTON - Now that the hot dogs have been digested and the fireworks have faded into the night, it's time to turn the focus back to the ice.
While it may still be the middle of the summer, hockey will be on full display this week as the 11th Annual Boston Bruins Development Camp, presented by AT&T, kicks off on Thursday morning with 21 B's prospects gathering at Warrior Ice Arena.

It will be the first chance for Bruins fans to see the 2017 Draft Class in Black & Gold, as all six picks -
Urho Vaakanainen, Jack Studnicka, Jeremy Swayman, Cedric Pare, Victor Berglund, and Daniel Bukac
- will be in attendance.
Several players expected to make their professional hockey debuts in the fall will also take part, chief among them forward Anders Bjork and defensemen Jeremy Lauzon and Jakub Zboril.
