[Coach Selly]

The Ottawa Senators today released the schedule and list of 35 players attending the team’s annual development camp from Tuesday, June 26, to Monday, July 2, at Scotiabank Place and the Bell Sensplex. The club has invited three goaltenders, 13 defencemen and 19 forwards.

Each of the club’s seven selections from the 2012 NHL Entry Draft, held Friday and Saturday in Pittsburgh, will attend. Fans will also get their first chance to welcome Orleans native Cody Ceci, the Ottawa 67’s defenceman the Senators selected with their first-round pick (15th overall).

The development camp, which focuses on off-ice and on-ice training, is led by Randy Lee, the Senators’ director of hockey operations and player development, and the team’s coaching staff headed up by video coach Tim Pattyson, conditioning coach Chris Schwarz and power-skating specialist Marc Power.

"And the guys we liked last year, they're a year further along in their development and their progress."
