McColgan attends NHL camp

Ok, the headline got you thinking didn't it?
How can a non drafted player attend an NHL training camp?
Kelowna Rockets forward Shane McColgan will be joining about 30 other top eligible prospects for the 2011 draft in Toronto next month for two days of scrimmages in front of many NHL general managers and coaches at the 2010 NHL/Gatorade Research, Development and Orientation Camp.
The camp allows the NHL to test out potential rules such as no icing when shorthanded, a bigger crease, wider blue lines and painted lines in front of each teams bench for line changes.
McColgan is in Toronto August 18th and 19th.

I read the story on the NHL website. It seems pretty interesting. All the Different things they are trying out that might one day be rules in the NHL. Some of them seem like they might actually work while other I am not so sure. But I am not expert its just my opinion.
