Prospect Info: Riley Kidney, LHC, Gatineau Olympiques (QMJHL ), 63rd overall

[Vachon23]

I would add Josh Roy to the list of players I expect little from at the NHL level.
Hopefully they prove me wrong.

I expect more from Roy though. Won't be superstar but he can play in a top 6

Smart player who drastically needs to increase the pace in his game.

Expect Kidney to be traded.

Philippe Boucher in his daily segment with JiC on the radio mentioned that some deals have been already completed and will be announced Saturday. And he mentioned Kidney as someone that will be moved (didn't say where and if it's been done. Just that he expects Kidney to be one of those moved).

I could see him traded to his hometown Halifax Mooseheads. Him centering Dumais could be lethal.

Although I wish he gets traded to Sherbrooke so he can center Roy.

Kidney is not traded yet

Halifax and Gatineau are the 2 most probable place for Kidney

I know he's not traded yet. Unless he has been traded and they haven't announced it yet. Which is something they do in Junior.

You can forget this option, they will trade for Jakub Brebenec

According to this, Kidney is attracting suitors in order to acquire him. No surprise obviously. But listed are Sherbrooke, Gatineau & Halifax as 3 teams interested.

Sherbrooke are after Melanson not Kidney

Bathurst are rumorly asking for Cataford to Halifax what they will never do

As you said, Sherbrooke acquired Melanson.

Still no word on Kidney. And the trade period ends on Friday.

The game before he was traded, Melanson was held out of the line-up. Acadie-Bathurst are playing tonight and Friday. WIll be curious if they keep Kidney out of the line-up.

Kidney is scratch tonight

Nice. So a trade should be imminent.

Gatineau like him for sure ! They had a trade in place for him this summer that didn’t work because of the change of GM

There was also the false rumor that he was traded to Drummondville last off-season. Although the guys who broke it did a mea culpa and said he got some bad info.

Yes that was false

I really hope he'll end up with Roy in Sherbrooke, that would be pretty neat. I don't know if they have the picks/16-17 year olds to make it happen anymore though, seems like they've already made a few trades.

middle 6 at best - but still.. a 5th rnd NHLer.. great pick.,

Same here. I wanted Kidney with Roy at Sherbrooke.

But Sherbrooke went for Melanson. They could end up still going for Kidney. But I think Kidney will be traded somewhere else.

Watch Quebec Remparts they could get a last splash and acquired him

I think it’s between Halifax/Québec/Gatineau

Where would Quebec fit him? Unless they put him on the wing. They just acquired Robidas. They already have Rochette and Gaucher.

 

[Rob Sense]

if Halifax trades Cataford then Dumais will be lost.
