LOL. Very true. Totally forgot about that trade last month!
Arrowsmith is now in Niagara and looking like he will be a heck of a good hockey player at the OHL level.
I think an offer with two of Lane, Karmiris and Dragusica would have Brampton as the frontrunner for Luchanko & OA.
Luchanko is a lot more impactful than Pinelli right now imo, better overall game than Musty I think.

Depends on the team of course but Pinelli can score goals. So if you are looking for a sniper, he’s your guy. If you need a two way 2nd line centre, Luciano is your guy. Of course, he could be 1C but if he is you netter have a hell of a good scoring 2nd line.
Yeah Luchanko, Musty, and Pinelli could all be the best player to add for different teams.
Of the three, I think Luchanko is the most versatile and determined; and has the most to offer a high scoring but defensively challenged team both offensively and defensively.
I’d probably want Pinelli for Kingston and Musty for Erie; and depending on line-mates, I can see either as best for Barrie.

It really is tough to say. IMO, Luchanko is Brantford all the way. They want/need two year players where possible. I cannot see Luchanko in the NHL next year but the Flyers are pretty brutal so…
Musty is staying in Sudbury I think. I think this latest injury has cemented that.
Pinelli is looking like Barrie (if they can get the Vaughn NTC cleared) or Kitchener. Both deals look good. An ‘08 plus picks. Probably two players going out though. Looks like Mayich or Dever. I am not sure Mayich is a good fit for Kitchener with their OA situation but Dever might be a good fit.
I would have conditions on Luchanko for next season if priced as a two year player, waaay more ready for the next level than Martone imo.

What is the deadline for OA.
Could be that they want to give MacK one last weekend before they release him.
Is Pinelli in the line up?

The first part of your statement makes me wonder about the veracity of the second part.

Well played!
This game is what it looks like when you are chasing the puck the entire game. This is why I don’t want to see a bunch of trades. But, if we are bringing capable young players back, I guess it is not all bad. We shall see how it all shakes out.
Tough game tonight, outshot 47-10. It can’t be easy to be shorthanded in Flint and hearing about a bunch of your teammates being mentioned in trade rumours.
Keep in mind that the 67’s haven’t had a true sell off of three or more seller deadline deals in at least the last 10 years.
In the 2015-16 season, the Travis Konecny/Sam Studnicka for Sasha Chmelevski and 8 pick deal was huge. Even in that season, they elected to hang out to Dante Salituro and Jake Middleton as 19 year olds only to have them both surprising go pro the next year. Salituro wound up coming back and he returned a paltry 2nd and 3rd after asking to only be dealt to London. The next year they also dealt Drake Rymsha.
It’s not in the franchise’s DNA to have sell offs but given the seller’s market, this is the year to do it.
It’s going to be a wildly interesting next week but if done correctly, it could set the franchise up for an awesome 3-5 year run.

I agree but I also look at what @OMG67 is saying. We need to get rid of a few players and anyone that is not interested in coming back next year or not sure should be gone now.
But I think that if we get rid of Dever we need to keep Foster or vice versa.
I don't see anyone wanting Barlas or Horner
The people I can see traded are Pinellli, Mayich, Mews and either Foster or Dever. There is an outside chance on Gerrior.
Mews I have in here because I am not sure if he wants to stay or go or if he is willing to come to a team that is a complete rebuild next year. His value to me is higher now when a team like Brantford or Brampton can get him for this years run and also have him next year.
If we trade our D then we will have some picks that we might be able to get another player to slot in on defence.
The big question is who do you release as your 4th OA. Yes if we trade mayich that would solve it but if we can get an OA D cheap to replace him then that is a real option.
