DU Sophomore defenseman Patrick Wiercioch is in Ottawa this week participating in the Senators Development Camp. Under NCAA rules, Wiercioch must pay his own way to the camp to retain his college eligibility.

The Camp features light drills, workout instruction, nutrition advice, wilderness team building exercises and the like. It's designed to give the teams top prospects a taste of life in the NHL and the commitment it takes to reach the highest level.

Although the camps feature no scrimaging or contact, it also gives the teams a look at their prospects and how far along they are in their development.
