Maybe the Camo jersey’s? But we are wearing white home jerseys till after the new year.

Huge win today and good weekend. Should of beat the Soo Thursday.

The zebra’s almost had their wish today, they must of needed a ride south on the Spirit bus. 😂

So glad for Bloomer and Hissy.

Has Petrov's game improved this year? Was expecting more from him this season. More on the lines of how Coe could dominate last season.

I think it has, at least the defense and physical play has improved. He has just become more of a playmaker for Wakely rather than shooter for Coe. He deserves a lot of the credit for Wakely’s 40 goal pace imo.

Anyone know what this "New Look" is going to be this Thursday vs the trout ? Can't see them getting rid of the green. Maybe black helmets to offset the green ?

Based off the very vague picture shown my guess will be a centennial coloured 3rd jersey with a tank themed logo

I was just about to debate the chances of DDV being named OHL GOTW for the 2nd week in a row. 2-0 record, 2.00 GAA and .935 SV%, not too shabby. And vs. SAG he was the difference maker (Troops were outshot 38-20), especially staring down Pavel Mintyukov’s penalty shot with under 2 to play, up by 2 and the Spirit on a power play. Although very late in the game, this was definitely the TSN Turning Point. Well done, Dom, even though the League did not have you in the top 3 for the week.
 
Troops wore a black jersey with large yellow numbers when they were in Brampton - maybe they're bringing it back?

Hats off to GM Dennis. (do we have any picks left?)

You will get picks back as the Fantilli trade progressively expires but from a currently available perspective, you are done. Nothing left Other than the mid and late round Picks.

He'll have to sell off next year to get some back. It's too bad because our D will be deep next year with the returning D corps and goalies.

My early prediction/guess ( NHL contract dependent) is GM AD moves Nelson and DDV to the West for a boatload of picks.

Nelson to London and DDV to Saginaw.
 
Now that NB is basically done, is anyone able to do a proposed depth chart assuming all players that project to be back at some point in the second half are back? It would be interesting to see how all the pieces likely now fit together.

NB traded ‘23 SBY-3rd so it looks like one 3rd still available. I am unsure where it came from. The ‘22 OS-*3rd from Fantili trade was used by the Petes in Stillman trade, …?

The picks situation is so confusing…… the conditionals are crazy.

Zito shows as #27 on the Troops roster

Wonder if Bouchard gets sent down to Jr A, not much playing time available and hasn’t outperformed Therrien. Assuming Mathurin doesn’t come back this year you’re gonna dress Brzustowski (sat out Sunday with a sore jaw after getting kicked to the head) leaving you with Kennedy whom has played well and rookie Turley

My guess:
Bloom-Jackson-Ertel
VanSteensel-Arnsby-MacDonald
Petrov-Zito-Wakely
Tarasevich-Proczyscn-Romani
Therrien

Winslow-Nelson
Lukin-Christopolous
Hislop-Kennedy
Mathurin
Brzustowski
Turley

lack of picks but still have options if needed in moving Proczyscn, romani and or Kennedy
 
By my count, that's 9 '03s on the roster now. Only thing missing now is an enforcer now that Gauvreau is gone. Last year Hamilton's Arbor Xj gave his teammates lots of room out there.
