Saginaw Spirit 2024 - 25 Season Thread, Part I

[BobHockey]

As far as the Parekh major and 1 game that was consistent with what Bilecki just got from the Rangers (stick up somewhat in self defense against a charging player). Bilecki as a rookie has no history. Has Parekh been suspended before?

Guo swing is right up there with Boulton's. Was contact made? What is Guo's rap sheet (I honestly don't know). If contact wasn't made and/or he hasn't a lengthy history it aligns with the league's punishment on Ryder.

Don't need to get me started on the league's ineptitude towards repeat offenders. Just that these 2 incidents were of similar severity and got the same punishment.

Looking at the video, I don't see the player charging at Parekh. He was just kind of standing there. In typical Parekh fashion once the Windsor player gave im a good right jab to the face Parekh fell like a sack of flour. Honestly despite his skill, I would not want that guy on my team.

Any thoughts on whether Saginaw will be buyers, sellers or just stand pat this year?

Probably DD has to see what are his available options and see what Chernyshov brings to the team. If we are playing well his decision is then.
I would build around the 8 or 9 guys that are 07 and 08s. Trade Parekh Hay Mangone get some picks back and still make the playoffs and develop those rookies.

I've been on record for a while now about trading Parekh this year... I still think that is the right move to make.

We will need to get some depth on defense likely players who are a casualty of playing time and need a new location.

Other than that unless someone makes a good offer for a faceoff guy like Hay I don't see many other moves because we don't have many picks and I don't think we should trade our young players
