I suppose it's still conjecture but I'm curious how @Dogs Enthusiast will spin this into a positive.

I am against trading Wassilyn.

Not sure if Niagara could get past Barrie, Oshawa or Kingston in po's.

it would be an insanely idiotic move. The team would also have to acquire a #1 dman and a forward with grit if they wanted to go for it.

It's just not the year to go for it. But none of us should trust DDD to recognize that.

I agree. I think with this they’d be taking a gamble at next year though with roobroeck and his draft year(proj top 5pick), Czatas dy+1, cretes dy and prob top 2 round pick, Kevin He’s 19 year old season, brautis 19 year old season, galiyanovs draft year (not sure where he is supposed to go), Luchanko would be among the best if not THE best in the league next year too IF he is back and that is a big IF.

With this move they’d probably be looking for some valuable playoff experience before pushing the chips in next year. Not sure it would work though as there is a lot of gaps to fill such as who will play net and who will step up on d besides brauti. I assume they use an import pick on defence and maybe on on a goalie, draft a defenceman, and trade for 1?

This season, the Ice Dogs have overcome their losing mentality of the past four or five years. They are now building on a winning tradition with great success. However, will it be enough to go for the big push this spring? Personally, I think not. Not if they have to give up their future for only one crack at the big Memorial silver can, if they need two or three more big time players, that will cost them dearly. But if they only need a couple to tweak their roster or for depth, then go for it.

The Ice Dogs management has a lot to think about over the next 4 weeks. It might be best for them to focus on their winning tradition for another full season and see how far this year will take them, before they try to go for broke. IMHO
