Saginaw and Barrie probably have the best trade relationship in the league. I wonder if Saginaw did a small sell off if something in this framework would work for both sides:

To Barrie: Joey Willis, Calem Mangone
To Saginaw: Parker Vaughan, Zach Wigle, SSM 3rd 25, BFD 4th 27

Doubt the colts do that but I do like Willis. I don’t see mangone really fit into the lineup with all the right wingers we have and Wigle is good enough for the role he plays. I can’t see Barrie trading Vaughan unless it’s for a superstar that has a chance of coming back next year. Parekh would be interesting I know it’d cost probs Vaughan Tiller Newton and probably 3-4 picks. Can’t see the colts doing that but would be a huge move. I like Joey Willis I think he could fit into the lineup alot better but I don’t think the colts would trade Vaughan for him. Maybe Newton and this years 2nd along with 2-3 other picks in rounds 3-5

I am wondering if anyone in this group has Barrie Colts game worn jerseys. I am a season ticket holder this year and have been unsuccessful in winning any of the raffles at the games, and would be interested in picking a few up to wear at games.

There's no reason why we cannot win 5 of the next 6 games to finish off the year.

Looking forward to a great 2nd half of the year as well.

Although a fan of Willis also, I think Marty would be crazy to even consider this , especially after trading Moses away to acquire an OA. Not sure what he's targeting, an upgrade to Wigle would definitely be nice as well as an additional stay at home defence man that can skate and punish the opposing forwards along the walls.

I think Marty’s much more likely to pickup a OA forward or a LW to improve depth can’t see him getting a D man unless it’s for a 06 D man that could help him next year aswell meaning I’d think tiller would be the odd man out who’s actually played really well so far so i think the d is probably set in stone. Barrie’s best options would be mccue foster or Willis for a LW and I don’t think u should trade Vaughan for any of them. OA’s swick in Kitchener I think makes the most sense for a upgrade of Wigle. I don’t think the colts have enough draft picks to do both things so it’ll probably be one or the other.

Congrats to both Akey and Beaudoin on making the World Junior roster. I thought both were on the outside prior to camp. Some surprise invites/ cuts like every year.
Team is gonna be missing possibly 5 players to this tournament which will give some ice time to the younger guys.

Big opportunity for Parker Vaughan tonight playing on the top line with Jelsma and Wakely. I've liked what i've seen from him so far this year. Hoping he has a good game tonight.
Nice to see Vaughan get more ice tonight but u can tell he isn’t used to playing heavy mins with top players having a tough one so far tonight. At least this teams biggest weakness is scoring which is the easiest thing to get at the deadline so not a bad place to be.

I was a little bit surprised about Akey but not Beaudoin. He's the type of player you win with, never stops working.
