Could be, just seems odd how long he was on the Black Aces and something wasn't being taken care of a couple months ago. I just find it rather interesting since there seems to be a bunch of these issues around the two league this off season.
It's a pretty complicated process and that paperwork might not work for this camp even if the dates extended for this long. I'd imagine any paperwork he had expired relatively close to the end of the season.
An update on Godfrey, Glass and Larson thanks to Japers over at Japers Rink.
"sk8 -
Per the team, Godfrey won’t be there b/c he’s too old (would be the only third-year pro there). Larson and Glass both would have had to pay their own way, and may also have classes this summer – it’s their option whether or not to attend."
I know there are some League rules about Dev Camp participation, but then some that are team specific. I read another team say a player wouldn’t be there because players not on ELCs aren’t attending, but then in the Caps case they have Miskovic. Curious if the Godfrey third year pro issue is League or Caps, but not a big deal.
I noted the NCAA aspect for Glass; wasn’t sure if they had released Larson’s rights the way they did for example with Bruneteau and Gwidt in the past. So based on that update, sure sounds like they still have his rights/are listing him on the reserve list to date. I understand the issues for an NCAA prospect as it relates to attending dev. camp and have tried to note the NCAA issue whenever I post about someone not attending.
The new CBA changed the rules for European prospects drafted under the old CBA. There was new expirations set depending on the draft class. Salonen and Guggisberg had to be signed, I want to say by 2007 for the 2004 European draft picks, but they were not signed so their rights are no longer held by the Caps.
My best guess on Larson is that they released his rights, but nothing to back that up and it's simply a guess. He's an NCAA player so as I noted before it's pay your own way Glass not sure, I assume they are still holding his rights and as I noted before it's simply an issue of pay your own way, conflict, injury or some combination of those.
Thanks a ton for the info- that's really helpful! A couple follow up questions for you...
Do you know when Gwidt/Bruneteau's rights were released? Did that have to do with the fact that they both played two years in the USHL before going to college, and therefore a decision about whether to keep them had to be made within two years of drafting them as opposed to 30 days after they leave college?
Your answer about the new rules for europeans in the CBA makes sense, but I do have one question about it. In 2003 the Caps drafted Andreas Valdix from Sweden, so he would have been under the same rules as Oscar Hedman (no transfer agreement until recently). I believe we had to decide whether to sign him or not back in 2007 (at which point we released his rights), and I'm not sure why. Sorry, just trying to figure out what happened in this case.
So I was just looking and Andrew Glass' 21st birthday falls right in the middle of Dev Camp week. If that's the reason he's not coming, I already want them to release his rights.
The info. on Bruneteau was reported in an article, I believe by the Sioux beat writer, Schlossman. It was posted here long ago, I imagine a search with Bruneteau's name would find it.
I don't have a definitive answer re. when Gwidt's rights were released.
Valdix's rights based on the new rules had an expiration date, pretty sure 2007. Again, the details on the expiration of European draft picks' rights is posted in the archives here. Some digging using a more obscure prospect's name in the search engine would make it relatively easy to find.
Not the same as Hedman as there was a transfer agreement with Sweden and then it expired. The transfer agreement that had been in place expired before Hedman's rights expired. The one year draft difference was a factor. I think the 2003 picks had to be signed by 2007 and it was 2008 for the 2004 picks, as I think about this for the first time in a long while. So modify the earlier Salonen comment accordingly based on that info.

A post like that makes me regret replying to you in such detail about your other questions :
David de Kastrozza, NCAA/Stingrays ECHL (F). He played some games (regular season and playoffs) for the Stingrays after he finished his senior season at U Maine last season.
not sure i ever posted it on these boards, so i will now. the official calicapfan 2010-11 caps calendar is LIVE! (and updated for development camp). get it here:

Thanks for the info on Bruneteau- I did find that article you referenced in the archives. Funny that I couldn't find anything on Gwidt at all.
You're absolutely right on Valdix/Salonen/Guggisberg. I found an explanation in the NHL CBA Exhibit 16 2.n, which apparently didn't apply to Yunkov because of the lack of transfer agreement with Russia. The only thing confusing me now is why Exhibit 16 from the CBA applied to Valdix (from Sweden) but not to Hedman (from Sweden) as we apparently only just released Hedman's rights this year, but we released Valdix's in 2007. By the CBA, we should have had to make a decision on Hedman by 6/1/2008. Weird.

or as Strung might say
sk8- sorry, I'm new to HFboards..was just joking around / speculating about Glass' reasons for not attending Dev Camp...is that sort of thing not appreciated on here?
DrPP- thanks...just thought it was an interesting tidbit.

For the reason I explained earlier, the transfer agreement with Sweden expired sometime before that June 1, 2008 deadline...so Valdix's rights expired while Hedman's were held longer. A new transfer agreement with Sweden was announced not too long ago.

Strungout - fair enough, but explain the latest update on de Kastrozza as a FA invite. I googled the s*** out of that and didn't find anything...sk8's like an oracle.
Nope. But he is bulking up nicely...unlike his namesake. But he IS a mama's boy, so the name fits.
Not that I know anything about farming, but a friend once told me that with bulls that you raise for meat, you have to castrate them to prevent the meat from being too lean. Insert applicable Crosby jokes here...

It's not about googling, it's an inside joke that sk8 is secretly a bot. Or something.

Fixed it.
Though you may be right about the "lean meat" thing, too. I've been told it's an attutude thing. Not that I know anything about farming either. Or hockey.
Davis may have been added in the update as I'm pretty sure I actually read this blog the other day; anyway, add another dman FA invite:
Kurt Davis, D, Mankato State, heading into senior season...not the first Mankato State player given a look by the organization - Bruess signed a year ago; Berge spent some time with SC; Morin... source
