Sarnia Sting 2024 - 25 Season Thread, Part I

[StingUpdates]

I think he was going to be a trade candidate before injury

I imagine he was being shopped for sure. Just like Chartier & Omeri.

Omeri has had a decent couple weeks here with Fischer out sorta hoping it's boosted his value. He's definitely an OHL level D.

One guy I could see on the trade block. If his play doesn't pick up by the end of the month is Brown. I know a lot of people probably don't want to hear that. But he has been disappointing up to this point with only 3g and 8pts through 20 games. I'm not saying we should move him at least not now. But if he doesn't pick it up by the end of the month I think the team needs to have the conversation about maybe moving him.

He just turned 17. There's 0 chance they'd move him. 0.

Brown really came alive playing with Wainwright and karimov, didn't put up alot of points but was alive and really into play. Think he gets back to last years form playing with wainwright. Think The speed of wainwright was helping Brown push his game. I think there is zero chance he gets moved. He will be big part of future

Sim released to the Q.

Guess better late than never IMO. Glad they gave kid a chance somewhere else as wasnt going to do much here

 

[StingUpdates]

Unfortunate. They banked on him growing & he would've been a solid player, but unlike his brother he didn't.

Just lacked the size and strength to hang at this level. QMJHL will be a better league for him. Hope he does well.

With 12/17/81 coming back (12 on Saturday) I'm hoping to see some new lines.. They can honestly mix & match the entire top-9 & I wont be to upset, but I do hope to see Wainwright & Brown together. That's who Brown plays his best with. Would love to see Karimov with them again, but not holding my breath with Letang.

A 4th line with Franceschetti & Moses actually excites me, too. They could be a real crash & bang line that'll be fun to watch & get the other team a bit off their game. If they could form that kind of identity on line 4 that would be awesome. Hall would fit nicely between them too once he returns as he's physical too.

Just want Karimov not to be buried on line 4. At the very least the kid's gotta be in the top-9 & on one of the two PP units.

While I'm still unsure about getting any wins this weekend vs 3 good teams (hoping they can squeeze out 1 vs SAG or KIT) I'm pumped to see Di Iorio, Edwards then Wainwright all back. Over anything they are just 3 players that are fun to watch & make the games more enjoyable lol. Special teams especially hopefully gets a nice boost from their returns as well as face offs though Filak & Kostuch did more than an admirable job filling in.
