Maybe that would convince Gavin Lock to jump to the OHLLol imagine the 07 core moving forward if he turned Melee and McCoy into Taylor and the Beck deal with Saginaw goes down?
Cameron, Addy, Taylor and Young
Cadorin and Ladds
Plus these guys are having big time U18 seasons… Lynds, Parish, Johnston and Del Colombo.
City of Peterborough just needs to get building that new memorial centre and maybe we can host the 2027 memorial cup

Yeah I’ll take that. Thanks for everything Sam, you were a stud
If we have to lose him, glad he gets to go close to home.
The Petes not taking a OA back from Ottawa who has 4 now is interesting. Maybe they just don’t want another OA but if this Dubois to Kingston deal is happening maybe they’d be getting Callens back? Although I could see any OA who gets traded here just saying they’d rather go play junior a somewhere close to home

I never thought of it that way because I always think they’d rather play in the league but you may be right. It does make sense. Some guys will need to pass through waivers so maybe the Petes will pick a couple up that do want to play there.
Petes will definitely priortize playing their young guys over a OA who has 30 games left that’s just why I don’t see some guys wanting to play here. Especially in Lawrence’s case he’s from Orleans moving all the way here for a couple months may not be worth it for him when there’s junior a teams close to home
Callens may be the worst OA in the league so especially on a team wanting to get youth playing time he could end just being dropped.

If you look at the quality OA’s traded leading up to the deadline (Schmidt and Budnick) and then Ottawa’s trade from Kressler, it was more a matter of whether you’d get a warm body or not. If not, it was likely going to be something like you received for those two guys. They are both quality players and will supply an impact to their new teams.

Here is the Petes updated draft pick cupboard after the Mayer and Dubois deals. Will only fill up even further once the Beck deal is official and if McCoy and Melee are also dealt. Great work by GM Mike Oke so far.
I was kinda hoping for a higher return for Mayer but getting the 2nd for Dubois makes up for it.
This shows the return for Lockheart was low.
Looking at 6 more picks for Beck and if Melee and McCoy move probably another 2-4
Small correction - Budnick is an '04 so not an OA. Will likely be back as an OA though.
Mayer and Dubois were a U18 and 14th round draft pick respectively. Huge props to them and the Petes for getting their games to where they have over the past three seasons.
So all together Simpson Lockart Mayer Dubois brought back 9 picks and Bowen. Add in another 6 for Beck and possibly 2-5 more for melee and McCoy they might bring back 20 picks total plus some good young players
People on the Facebook posts are having meltdowns and calling for Oke to be fired haha.
So thankful we have Oke and not Dave Reid running this operation.

Those are casual fans who don’t understand how junior hockey works
