Even Steven-
Any more about Xu? Lots of news coming this week regarding NCAA!

And there could very well be a scenario Valentini re-thinks scenarios very quickly!

2025 Draft will look nothing like previous years. Going to be very exciting! Hope we have the scouting staff to handle it. Maybe we put Even Steven on the payroll?

Never really had any info on Xu to begin with. Just like what I saw in him via the scouting reports and hoped we’d take a flyer on him in hopes we could get him to report. Then afterwards, to hear that he was going to school (St Andrew’s?) and NCAA afterwards meaning he was a student first player, had me writing him off as a possibility.

But now I see he’s in the OJHL. Who knows? He may want to explore playing here before making the jump to NCAA?

I don’t know about that! I’m a terrible judge of talent!

Per JB Kitchener released the rights to Kos and hopes to get one of the 3 to join Chromiak. (MM is willing to explore options if they don’t come.)

“the club also holds import rights to Slovak forwards Tomas Chrenko and Tomas Pobezal, who are both playing abroad”
