I think if Halts or Semenyov are here it makes sense to trade Gaz, but he is a good import!

How much has Barkey bulked up? I think if he’s in that 175/180 range he has good NhL potential. Might be tough to maintain the speed

The Rangers may be in the market for an import. But not an OA import. As good as Gazizov is, we already have excess OA’s to sort out. And I doubt MM would give up significant assets for a one year import. That would go against his rebuild
Agreed. As good as Gaz is he's not worth spending assets on not a huge upgrade over Missle, taking up 2 roster spots, on a rebuilding team. Gonna be a hard sell for Mark as there isn't much value for that type of player, but if there's anyone who can pull it off...

Gaz seems destined to wind up on a Q or USHL roster at the start of the year. Zero chance he is playing in London, although they might help him out a little bit by letting him attend some camp to get him in shape.

I fully expect Willmore to start as a Knight, but Medvedev and Finn will both impress which will put Owen on a short leash. Depending on how the OA situation falls, having Willmore as your number 1 behind this team should be far more than sufficient. He would likely have to really screw up to lose the reigns and I don't see that happening especially early on.

Gaz has OHl value though.

He has pretty close to zero value unfortunately. Unless you can find a desperate team with 1 import and 2 OA's that HAVE to have another roster player than you might get a 15th rounder for him. I imagine they will do what is best for him and release him when the time is right so he can go to the USHL or BCHL unless for some reason he wants to ride a bus in the Coast.

niagara could probably do it, no imports and average 04s, but the market shouldn't be anything more then a depth pick.

For sure it would be a 13-15th round pick at best. But Gaz playing for Niagara is not best for him personally so I would likely say that move is not made.
For context Albert Michnac went for a 5th. Sobolev went for 2 warm bodies. Last couple OA Imports I can remember off the top of my head. You can get more than a 13th for him.

i would say a 6th - 8th round pick is more then fair. london wont move him for a 13th, good give them something.

that said, Niagara will probably give up a 2nd, 3rd and 4th.

Very surprised London would not allow fans to watch the 6 intrasquad games not a good look.
Thankfully Windsor fans can see all 6 of their intrasquad games.
No team should do what London is doing screws the fans imo.

Would be shame if Gazizov couldnt find a spot on the roster. I know what being a victim of circumstance and numbers feels like. He has proven himself and more. If he makes the team better that should be the deciding factor, but it isnt.

My suggestion woukd be go to Italy or Switzerland and play for 10 years. Make enough to retire somewhere warm.

Hmmm... that sounds like a really good idea
See ya....
