Just wait until DD starts working his magic.Undefeated season on the way

It's only a matter of time.
He not being tradedCurrent thought process in Niagara:
Coach: “We have a Championship contender on our hands here! Even if not this year, our team is young and will continue to grow!”
DD: “I wonder how much of a bag I can get for Kevin He?”
Dude, it was a joke. He trade in 3,2,1...He not being traded
3 Different Nhl Scouts over the weekend Thurs-Sun brought up to me that they are positive he will ruin the team again this year.Current thought process in Niagara:

This is what Hockey Op's around the league think of the Ice Dogs and reputation the owner has built.
What a chance they have to try and repair the culture there. -i honestly just don't think he can help himself though.
I would imagine Boudreau walks if DD puts his stamp on this as well.It is quite literally why I have the Ice Dogs out of the playoffs. It sure isn’t because of the current roster.
I’m not going to give him the benefit of the doubt but I will give the team a chance. I am holding out hope that this is the start of a turnaround. Great city, great fanbase, nice rink. This is a jewel franchise in the OHL. I hope this is the turnaround season where they can leave all the garbage behind.
We need players to join him then MAYBE the league steps in which is what fans here keep hoping for even though it won’t happenI would imagine Boudreau walks if DD puts his stamp on this as well.

Fantastic. That means everybody is underestimating the Dogs this year.
I think DDs focus is going to be on selling tickets. Kevin He and a winning record will help with that. It might be wishful thinking on my part but I do not expect the crazy amount of trades to happen again this year.
This is exactly it. The team is the team.I haven't jumped into this at all but I wanted to say one thing. I don't think people/teams are underestimating the IceDogs right now; they've done very well and props for that. I think the bigger concern should be what management will do with that. When you're known for "WTF?" trades, fans are more likely to go "we're good, but....... (waits patiently for chaos to break out)." For their fans, I hope I'm wrong.
More confident than I originally wasAt Christmas break, how is everyone feeling about their picks so far?
I once again underestimated Jusse Ahokas & Kitchener.At Christmas break, how is everyone feeling about their picks so far?

Safe to say there will be a new champ this year lolEAST - an arms race in the East this year w/a clear cut top 4 followed by 3 also rans
Brampton
Brantford
Barrie
Oshawa
Kingston
Sudbury
Ottawa
Niagara - really seesaw'd on this pick but ownership troubles trump the positives
North Bay
Peterborough
WEST - its been a long time since the East was this much stronger than the West (could make it more interesting since its wide open)
London - Hunter will plug up the holes on this team but their returning squad is so strong
Saginaw - Normally I think 'sell' after winning it all, but with such a weak division why not go for it again
Erie - Could give the Knights a run
Flint - West division is so weak they will challenge but the Bertucci trade sent mixed signal
Guelph - They have some pieces and again given the conference strength I can see George making moves to go for it
Sarnia
Windsor
Kitchener
SSM
Owen Sound
Brampton over London
