Sounds like Petes expect all of Lefebrve, Page, McCallum and Bryant back in the lineup by next Tuesday. That’ll help.
Gavin Lock hasn't played the last two games for Dubuque, anyone know if injured or healthy scratch? Based on how he's been used this season (frequently 13th forward - looks like they dress 20 skaters rather than 18), I'm assuming healthy scratch. Might as well come here and get some real development time, especially now since it seems he'll be able to go to college after now anyway.When will it be our turn...
From everything that I have heard he’s just been getting healthy scratched so no reason why he shouldn’t come here and play top 6 (most likely LW1) and PP1. Hopefully the Petes are making a push for him right nowGavin Lock hasn't played the last two games for Dubuque, anyone know if injured or healthy scratch?

Makes no sense to trade Melee now.
Sure it does.Makes no sense to trade Melee now.
Sure but by that same logic, why would they have traded picks for Bryant to improve the team in a pointless season that's already a write off? It's completely contradictory to the last move they made.Sure it does.
Trade Melee - Get pick / picks
Release Mcintyre get nothing.
What's the benefit of holding onto him to play a couple months in a pointless season that's already a write off?
The only thing I'm certain of is that they have absolutely no plan and no clue what they're doing.Makes no sense to trade Melee now.
Let's keep the hopeful thoughts going here!From everything that I have heard he’s just been getting healthy scratched so no reason why he shouldn’t come here and play top 6 (most likely LW1) and PP1. Hopefully the Petes are making a push for him right now
Even if they haven't I would much rather the Petes release Kaiser in the offseason and used their next top 5-10 overall import pick on a very high end player and try to get both the drafted player and Novonty to come and go all out on importsWouldn't the Petes have needed to release Kaiser when they acquired Matejicek?
Makes total sense outside of Melee and maybe Matejicek I’m not sure the Petes have much else to move this year and they need to accumulate as many picks as possible for the next few years ahead when they will turn from selling to buyingMakes no sense to trade Melee now.
Because the team desperately needed a leader which is probably one of the most blantantly obvious things in Peterborough this seasonSure but by that same logic, why would they have traded picks for Bryant to improve the team in a pointless season that's already a write off?

They just traded for Bryant because things haven’t gone to plan and they wanted to upgrade. Unless they’re getting more than a 3rd and 9th (they won’t) it doesn’t make sense to trade your captain and one of your better offensive forwards in a year where they are young and can’t score to begin with.Makes total sense outside of Melee and maybe Matejicek I’m not sure the Petes have much else to move this year and they need to accumulate as many picks as possible for the next few years ahead when they will turn from selling to buying
Okay, the coaching staff has had Melee for 2.5 years and didn't see in that time that he couldn't be the leader when they named him the captain last season? To the point that he's so bad a leader they had to trade a 3rd and 9th to bring another one in, knowing they won't get near that back when they move Melee out?Because the team desperately needed a leader which is probably one of the most blantantly obvious things in Peterborough this season
Let’s see how it plays outThey just traded for Bryant because things haven’t gone to plan and they wanted to upgrade. Unless they’re getting more than a 3rd and 9th (they won’t) it doesn’t make sense to trade your captain and one of your better offensive forwards in a year where they are young and can’t score to begin with.
I thought the same but I came across a post from Brock Otten on the OHL Prospect blog back in July.Wouldn't the Petes have needed to release Kaiser when they acquired Matejicek?
I agree with this. The Petes are headed for the 2nd overall pick in the import draft at the rate they are going.Even if they haven't I would much rather the Petes release Kaiser in the offseason and used their next top 5-10 overall import pick on a very high end player and try to get both the drafted player and Novonty to come and go all out on imports

Could they be that incompetent...? Wait, nevermind, it actually makes total sense now!
