Mayer would be an upgrade over Motew no? Or even Martin seeing as he is hurt right now. Kitchener short a d man maybe Konnor smith would make senseKitchener has 3 OAs
Fair enough. I think Smith makes sense for Owen soundKonnor Smith is possible as an 04. If they wanted an OA D-man as their 3rd OA why not just keep Schmidt? Teams normally don't burn cards just to burn cards.
Owen Beck is on the cover of The Hockey News!
I’d take Smith in Kitchener if the price was right.Fair enough. I think Smith makes sense for Owen sound
I would take Connor Lockhart back. Oshawa now 4 points behind Petes.I’d take Smith in Kitchener if the price was right.

Yea we would lose those picks but I am starting to think Lockhart was so much more to this team than his on ice contribution.But you’d lose that 3rd and 5th….
The way they used him at the start of the year was really puzzling. Why was he ever scratched? It was probably early evidence that a hard tank is coming.Yea we would lose those picks but I am starting to think Lockhart was so much more to this team than his on ice contribution.
Since we traded him we have faltered -perhaps he was the heart of this team?
I don’t know -
Petes last few 3rd/5th round picks for context:But you’d lose that 3rd and 5th….
It appeared to me that he liked playing in Peterborough. He was one of the leaders on the team. The Petes at the time were in a time crunch. The deadline was approaching for teams to get down to four overages and at the time Tucker Robertson had not yet played a game in the AHL and at the time there was a good chance he would return to the Petes So the team had to trade an overage to keep his rights. The Petes decided that they wanted to keep their current overages. I think most fans were shocked that Lockhart was the one traded as many like myself felt he would lead the offence once Owen Beck was traded.Yea we would lose those picks but I am starting to think Lockhart was so much more to this team than his on ice contribution.

He had the most value other than Mayer as a OA he was always gonna be moved.It appeared to me that he liked playing in Peterborough. He was one of the leaders on the team.

I agree. It was somewhat somewhat understandable when they decided to dress two overage defencemen when both Konnor Smith and Liam Ladds were out and with start that Jax Dubois had but when he continued to be the overage scratch when they had all defencemen available I started to wonder. Then in days before he was traded I started to think he may be the one traded but I was shocked when it happened. I do not agree that it indicated a hard tank is coming. I think it indicated that by keeping Cam Gauvreau that Sam Mayer will likely be traded and with Jax Dubois I think they needed to keep him because they needed the centre depth with the likely trade of Owen Beck. We know there will be some selling but no one knows how large. I still think they keep enough to make the playoffs.The way they used him at the start of the year was really puzzling.

I suppose thinking about it more, it could have been a Wilson oriented decision. He may have actually preferred the defense/physical/safe aspect of Gauvreau/Dubois over the skill/scoring/entertainment of Lockhart.I was being sarcastic. Of course you should want Lockhart back. If it was all about what was best for the Petes, the trade would not have, nor should it have happened, not at that level of return. Too many misses and not enough hits with picks past the 2nd round. And that is league wide, not pointing at the Petes.

Seems hard to fathom but I wouldn't put his past him, and if Lockhart wasn't going to play, move him quickly so he can play.
Kingston should win. Depleted forward group for the petes missing 2 of their top scorers no way Kingston should lose this gameShould be a good game tonight! 2 struggling teams. First matchup since the opening day for the season.
