A #1 centre is must I think. Frasca can be LW1 or C2.I’d like a top line of something like 1 Swick/Frasca or trade for a 1C/ Battaglia
if they get a 1C other than frasca move frasca down to line 2
2 Thibodeau/frasca/ Soto
3 McNamara/Hopkins/weir
4 Buttar/ one of the u18s or malholtra if he comes/cavallin
Defence I’d like them to pick up an OA rhd and draft a new rhd man to play top 4, sorry Chromiak but you’re a liability defensively.
Burns / McCoy
McGowan or velliaris / import
McGowan or Velliaris / williamson
Bye uens and Chromiak
Sztuska
Vaccari
Trades they need to make- Swick, McCoy, Sztuska. May have to trade Weir for Swick but I think they’d be fine if they got picks.
Also declare Maholtra defective and get that 1st rounder next year- trade him to some team like Guelph or London for lots of conditionals and watch him show up.
With the 3 OA’s you now have one in the forward group, defence and goaltending. So lots of experience.
Don’t know if Sztuska is a necessary move but it would definitely help to have lots of stability in net.
Also would have an extra import slot they would have open, could use it on a chance player in the second round or get someone who might show next year.
Uens is likely worth more to Kingston than he would return in trade.
I think NB would move the better of their 5-6 OAs early if the offer is right and the lesser OAs virtually worthless early.I don’t think Anthony Romani, Colby Barlow or Daylyn Wakely will be traded until the trade deadline. The cost for Romani would be Mason McTavish like return which would likely be one or two 2007 born players (depending on the players offered), likely three, 2nds, three 3rds and a 4th. Barlow would likely be a 2007 born player two, 2nds, two 3rds and a 4th or a 5th. Wakely would likely cost a player plus a 2nd and two, 3rds or in a draft pick only trade it would be a Logan Morrison like return which would likely be two, 2nds, two, 3rds and two, 4ths. If the Petes trade Liam Sztuska the cost likely would a 3rd and either a 4th or 5th. Kingston will likely not to be able to much more than these trades if they pursue them given their draft pick situation.
There is not a comparable 2-way OA centre that I am aware of; and there are a couple of needy teams, so maybe in this case the early bird gets the worm?
