I think he is only playing Junior C because Lakefield is the closet affiliate team and it is likely to get some playing time. They did it with Stevie Leskovar two years ago.

Mississauga is also a possible destination for Sam Mayer if the Petes trade him. They have an open overage spot and probably want to add some experience on defence. He might have said that Ottawa and Sudbury are his preferred destinations but he is a team player and will likely go with in reason to where Peterborough can get the best return for him.
I bet they do right by him and try to send him to Ottawa if that’s where he wants to go.
Same thing they did with Simmer.
It would depend on what Ottawa offers. If they can get a their (Petes) 2nd and an other 3rd from Mississauga and Ottawa is only offering a 3rd and a 5th. I would think they would trade him to Mississauga. It it is a different situation than Michael Simpson as they do not have to trade him as he is one of their three overages. Simpson was one of five at the time of the trade.
he also said the petes wouldnt trade simpson right away and that they would only trade lockhart for a high return.
Rye played NO GAMES for the Petes last season.......that is why he received a commemorative ring just like season ticket holders and billets who also supported the Petes last season but didn't play for them. I really hope that no one is making a big deal over this. The last thing this organization needs is flack over this after what they gave the city last season.
I agree. The OHL Championship was such an amazing achievement and one small issue should not taint it. The Peterborough Petes are a class organization and the current management has returned the Petes to the team they use to be. The championship run in my opinion is the Peterborough sports highlight of the decade so far.

and i wasn’t trying to suggest that they should be getting flack and frankly it doesn’t bother me either but was looking at it from his end and maybe it wasn’t a big deal to him either. probably wasn’t

Don’t forget Mayer’s first choice in Sudbury. By the way, they have the most draft capital… just saying.
One individual who has been often critical about the Petes posted it on social media and few commented and I know there was one repost. I don’t think it was as big as a deal this individual made it out to be.

It’s been a few months, and maybe I missed something in the French article; but I think Mayer said Ottawa & Sudbury without stating a favourite.
Sudbury already has quality OAs. Do you think they’d move off of McCallum for Mayer?
They should imo. Replacing a RW/C is probably easier and cheaper than an ‘04 LD that could be top pairing. The one place that it might ok to trade a 5-yr vet of one team is to the team with his younger brother.

I think moving out a current OA for Mayer is a strong possibility.
its amazing square corners stopped posting the exact same time that generals updates stopped posting. who would have thought.

looking solely at point production it makes much more sense for the Wolves to send Ethan Larmand to the Petes. even with the mccallum frustrations lol
