The 2 Czech goalies don't look too bad. I know nothing about them except for the stats, but you can never have too many goalie prospects (and they are only 18-19)
Yeah I would imagine that there would be a goalie invited if anything since we only have one prospect there, is Lehner even going to be playing in the tourney?

Can they be invited to camp if they are still draft eligible,

If they are 18 or 19, they can be invited but that does not mean they become Sens property. They would still have to drafted unless they are past age eligibility and never been drafted, in which case they would be UFAs. But if they are under 20. chances are they need to be drafted before they can become a Sens prospect.
For clarification, players attending the rookie camps/tournament on an ATO/PTO are really to source Bingo/Elmira players. There may be a couple who end up with the Sens, but the majority of these guys we will never hear from again. I can't think of any players (there may be some but I don't know of any) who attended one of these things on an ATO or PTO basis and ended up becoming a regular NHL player.

18-19 seems like a draft eligible age
can someone clarify this?
Yes, they can receive invitations. For example the Sharks invited Michael Sgarbossa last year, signed him to a contract and he had a heck of a year in the OHL.
the problem is now that we have so many prospects to play in rookie tourny so i believe we will have very few (1 or 2) guys that will actually be invites, a goalie for sure then maybe one other guy they really like ect
If Scott Greenham (G) - Alaska Fairbanks (CCHA) hadn't already accepted an invite to Chicago's camp, I would have loved to have seen him at the Sens' rookie camp. I heard from more than a few people that he looked great at the Sensplex during the orientation camp the Sens had for their new draftpicks ealier in the summer... he was there as a body in nets, and not Sens property, but a friend (his brother-in-law) said that Scott had a good chat with both Tim and Bryan Murray who told them that if he doesn't sign with Chicago, they'll be watching him this year in Alaska. Mature goalie who has recently discovered what he needs to do to make hockey a profession. Could be good for the Sens' system.

We only want goaltenders at this point to appear at the tournament. I would not be adversed to getting a young guy an ELC and keep him in the minors for two years. I hope we jump on Tadeas
Has any tryout invite ever been offered a contract by the Ottawa Senators?
Thanks in advance, just curious.
I remember Dansereau in 2009 (Z. Smith's linemate in JR) was on a tryout and I think he ended playing some games for Elmira and Bingo. That's the only guy who comes to mind. Might be more, but nobody special that I can remember.

I think Keegan Dansereau and Brandon Svendsen are the only ones to get a contract out of it (AHL contracts). Svendsen played most of the 2009-10 season in Bingo, while Dansereau spent most of the year in Elmira. It's pretty uncommon and with the all the bodies signed right now I don't see it happening this year.
Is this the pool for the Camp? Or do we delete the University talent (italics) and Filatov, Butler, Greening, Condra (still prospects but 1 way contracts) and Silfverberg, Sorenson, Sandin (Sweden)? Not a lot of room for invites, except in net. (these are not recommended lines by the way). Feel free to update the list.
Interested in the depth here, even without the deletes above - this lineup within the next two years will have a lot of Sens ready content. My lines on the above might look like
Petersson – Zibanejad – Daugavins
Puempel – DaCosta – Noesen
Prince – O’Brien – Stone
Hoffman – Pageau - Hamilton
Dzurzzynski – Grant - Cowick
Culek – Cannone - Kramer
