Komets General Manager David Franke said today he's continuing to talk with forward J.C. Ruid, but there's no news as yet.
``I don't expect to get a decision from him until probably the end of the week,'' Franke said. ``I think we are getting closer.''
The Komets open training camp Oct. 2 at the Memorial Coliseum. Their schedule for first few days goes Monday 2-5 p.m.; Tuesday 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.; Wednesday 10 a.m. to Noon; Thurday, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.; Friday 10 a.m. to Noon.
Franke said he expects to announce more rookies added to the roster next week and expects around 30 players to be in camp. The Komets currently have 22 under contract.
