Kitchener Rangers 2024-25 Season Thread, Part I

[Kitchna]

Personally I think Seattle would want a deal in place before sending him back if they want him back in junior.
feels more likely that he’s traded before he plays another game here.

Not sure why that would matter for them. I dont believe they would care whether he is on a winning team. They just need him to get minutes. Would be good to get him in a leadership role as well. . He blossomed in the playoffs in Kitchener. Did not happen for him in Barrie. A trade may not be what is best for his development is all. That said, I think they could read the tea leaves and see there is a good chance he will be dealt by the deadline although given the fact he is an import and would be a rental, it may not be easy or value. (I am pretty new to following junior hockey but this would be my thinking if I were running the Kraken.)
