How many contenders have the draft capitol that the Battalion would want. What's the return for Romani? Could 1 LeBlanc be moved? #18 is putting up numbers. What to do with a lame import?

My guess on the worth of Romani is; 2-2nds, 3-3rds.
I wonder if there’s any value in the surplus of 2006-07 born D.

Back in: 19 Nolan Laird, 23 Stepan Chukharev. Out: 10 Dylan Richter, 26 Natan Teshome. The always popular 11 / 7 alignment remains in effect. 1 Charlie Larocque has the net, 33 Owen Flores for NIA. Attendance could be 2600 – 2700.

Tough night for Charlie, not sure why he wasn’t pulled earlier. He lost his confidence after the very soft 2nd goal.

McIvor should have played last night. It’s not that we were playing a basement dwelling team. Oulahen said it himself “they have a high octane offence” Why would you put in a goaltender that isn’t confident & cant’ stop a beachball ?
Having said that, what happens “if” McIvor gets hurt. We have no backup that is worthy of the net.
McIvor should be in net every game until a worthy backup can be found IMO. Hopefully Adam Dennis is working on this.

07 back up goalie in a non competitive year. Let’s relax and give the kid more than 13 games. Team is shaping up nicely for next season
I guess you can't blame the kid, you can only get better by playing. I do question the coach leaving him in to get lit up for 6 goals. Then, with 4 minutes left in the period, throw in your #1 stone cold! Good way to pull a groin.
Anyway, how many chances did #21 have? Could of had half a dozen by my count.
They rested McIvor - meanwhile Ice Dogs played Flores - his 18th game in a row.
Flores has been in nets for 18 striaght games for Ice Dogs . Maybe we can ask for Charlie Robertson back lol
We can’t continue with Larocque as a backup. He is not ready for the OHL quite yet and would benefit from a stint with Powassan or something of that nature. This is a guy who was on a very good team last year (who was considered a C ranked prospect in October for the NHL draft due to his size, last years stats, etc) but I think the sample size is big enough to say he is not ready for the league. He’s at the bottom of the league in numbers… and has lost a few winnable games. If McIvor had not been hurt, I’d say North Bay would’ve been ahead of Brampton and Brantford in the standings. It’s better for Charlie’s development to get his confidence back in another league then try again next season than to keep hanging him out to dry… not good getting pulled back to back in your rookie season. Give Nadon a shot? Meredith?
I agree the team is looking nice for next year…. Chemistry with the young guys coming together nicely, Enright looks like a stud, Carey a future Pro. But unless we want to play Mike basically every game, we are at high risk of missing the playoffs running with Charlie…. He needs more time to develop. Mike is an athletic/reflex style goalie and those guys are highest risk for injury when they play all the time and come in cold….
