Purdeller - 2004 import. Would be one of the cheapest imports on the market I imagine. Could he be a 3rd line shut down center who provides a touch of offence? I imagine it would take a 3rd maybe to get him? Maybe another late pick? What do Petes fan think of him? Type of player? Thanks!

I doubt they do anything else. I think they are lining up next year. If they could pull off a Beck style move like PEtes did last year for a two season player, I could see it but other than that? I highly doubt it.
Yeah I’m just trying to think of what teams are possibly left for Mayer or Dubois. Looks like Kingston Ottawa London

I’d like to think Ottawa is in on Dubois AND Mayer but I think if I had to lean on one, it would be Mayer. I just feel Brady to the Petes is a strong possibility when all is said and done.

I wonder if the delay is that they are going to announce the trade after Saturday so Beck doesn’t have to play against his former team?
Has the proposed Beck deal with Saginaw fallen apart.
It’s possible. If young doesn’t waive his NTC then Saginaw doesn’t have much to offer that the petes will want so that’ll probably nix it

With north bay buying it’s time for Papineau to panic and make the move for Beck

I believe that’s exactly it. Now probably trying to figure out the cost of just beck (and Mayer will go elsewhere)
NK…..the cost of an Uber from Michigan to Ottawa would be crazy and hitchhiking this time of year would not be fun
Exactly… but if anything was close Mayer or Dubois wouldn’t be playing. My guess is there’s still a couple teams vying for both themNK…..the cost of an Uber from Michigan to Ottawa would be crazy and hitchhiking this time of year would not be fun

Interesting but that isn’t good news for the Petes

More like a punch in the gut.
I thought the rumour was supposed to be that players didn't want to go to Peterborough, not that they didn't want to leave it?

Beck is probably just doing his own due diligence speaking with Saginaw to get a sense of their intentions for player moves etc.
That has changed in recent history. JR Avon refused to waive his no trade clause when he was a rookie in the Akil Thomas trade in 2020. Prior to that Nikita Norostelev chose to stay in Peterborough in 2018 instead of being traded to a contender. Also in recent years players have chosen to come to Peterborough instead of other teams. In 2020 Akil Thomas chose to be traded to the Petes instead of London or Ottawa. Last year both Connor Lockhart and Brennan Othmann chose to come to Peterborough.
