Undrafted forward Cole Burbidge is the only current Sea Dog that received an NHL development camp invite. Burbidge took part in Ottawa Senators camp as a free agent.
There are a few former Sea Dogs taking part in camps this summer — but the list is short. Notably, two Dogs alumni — defensemen Jeremie Poirier and Yan Kuznetsov — were on the Calgary Flames development camp roster.
"A 2022 Memorial Cup champion along with Poirier with the Saint John Sea Dogs, Kuznetsov has steps to take to be with the big club, but opportunities may present themselves with six of the club’s top eight defensemen due to become unrestricted free-agents after the 2023-24 season," wrote Randy Sportak of The Hockey News.

Ansons was invited to Penguins development camp but, according to the team's roster, was unable to attend due to an injury.
Poirier, meanwhile, attended Flames development camp but did not take part in the on-ice portion, according to the team.
The New York Islanders are not holding a summer development camp because Lou Lamoriello simply can't be normal.
