North Bay Battalion 2024 - 25 Season Thread, Part I

[190 is almost 206]

He cried his way into a trade to his hometown Battalion! His Dad did the same thing when he was in the OHL with the Oshawa Generals (Got traded to Sudbury which is close enough to North Bay to stop his constant crying). Both got extremely homesick as would not stop crying until they got traded. Briir is not worth a 5th round pick!! Pretty big favor from the Battalion to the Long Family.

Wowzers. Great insight

Ya, I thought it might be a home-town favor to the kid.

Any word on Reyth Smith's injury? Could be 4 regulars out of the lineup.

How can they be facts if they are either right or wrong? You’re not making any sense Travis

Right meaning- The kid wanted to go home could because of homesickness and Brantford had no issue and did everything they could to accomidate him.

Wrong meaning- Brantford could have been pissed as they would have every right as they selected him for a reason. So much for team loyalty.

Facts- This is the situation! His Dad also literally did the same thing.
