Peterborough Petes 2024 - 25 Season Thread, Part I

They won’t be battling each other for a playoff spot Oshawa will be at worst 3rd IMO and IceDogs will likely finish 7-8

They could meet in round 1 though. Niagara could finish as high as 5.

Assuming McIntyre gets released has anyone heard?

You’re right it could be a first round matchup but even then I would’ve been ok if he was with them in that scenario. As for where they finish I don’t think they finish above maximum 7th but I’ll be happy if I’m wrong

When healthy?

Taylor-Bryant-McCallum
Melee-Fitzgerald-Page
Lefebrve-Young-Addy
Faulkner-Levac-Parish

Doesn't look too bad on paper. Still wish we could find another ohl level forward to play on our 4th line.

Right now, it seems Oshawa could be at best 3rd, more likely 4th or 5th.

It appears that Niagara is going another route and it looks like he might now be traded to Peterborough. It likely is in Niagara’s best interest to not trade him to a contender who they could be battling for positioning with in the standings and possibly meeting in the playoffs.

No it's just exactly what I said it was, Gens were kicking tires on Bryant for if Roobroeck doesn't get sent back. NYR hasn't made a decision on Roobroeck yet

Looks like Bryant’s return isn’t imminent so I guess they will stick with the 3 OA until he’s back

Huh? The Gens had a bad start but are the most talented team in the East Division, and are clearly going all in if/when Ritchie gets returned. To say they have no shot to win the division is just wrong lol

Can you guys take the Oshawa/Ice
Dogs banter to those threads? Thanks

Excellent move now make one more OA upgrade and get Novotny over and things will get better

I think Bryant, Melee and Lefebvre finalizes the OAs, unless you are hearing or thinking of something else?

If they can convince Novotny and even Gavin Lock to come, this team could look a lot more dangerous offensively.

Ya I don’t see them paying more picks to upgrade over Lefebvre.

Those 3 are the most talented OAs. Last week in the back to back with the Gens, McIntyre was the only Petes forward who really pushed back and came out really physical in the 3rd, only thing to think about. If they get rid of him, they don't have any jam up front at all. Another team keeps taking runs at Fitzgerald, who's going to step up and put a stop to that? They really don't have a guy for that without McIntyre

Strohack will have no problem dropping the gloves

100% and I haven’t seen McIntyre drop the gloves yet
