Has a “wellness” check been called on Roger Macleod yet? Sweden is long distance.

I don't know how good the Ice Dogs will be this season, but look out for Erie. I would go so far as to say the path to victory will have to go through Pennsylvania... I'm sure Roger would agree.

Perhaps Erie will play at the Meridian Center this season if so, we should be able to watch at least one team who can put the puck in the next this winter.

I can say, Roger has “vision” if this season is a “snowflake” type of player year. I think he moved to Sweden once his CERB ran out.

Embarrassing for the Org he is.

Niagara really are one of the bigger “winners” from that trade alone when it comes to buyers/sellers of the last 1.5 years. What did they get like 6 second round picks? And a 3rd? That’s a lot even if tomasino played 1.5 years in Oshawa. But for Oshawa to only see 26 games out of him without any postseason action is pill they will be swallowing for a few years. The player in that trade was a throw in because Oshawa has limited success with college commits but Niagara at least was willing to take a half swing

That trade isn't done yet. Aidan Castle will be going to NIA and half of the picks OSH gave to NIA will be going back to OSH

So the trade will actually be something like Castle (rookie 1st rounder)+couple 2nds for Tomasino which is generally the same as most of the other Team Canada WJ players over the last handful of years.

It just was all the picks at the time so the Gens didn't have to trade away Brett Harrison, which would've been huge this year, but it didn't end up mattering obviously
