I'm really intrigued to see how Seca approaches the deadline this year. Even if this teams turns it around to what we hoped, at best they come 6th & lose to LDN/WSR/KIT/ER round 1. I've never been a believer in "staying the course" / standing pat. No matter where you sit or what your aspirations are for that season.
How I see it
Moses - 19. Doesn't bring much offense. Was playing well w/10/15, but ive liked Luecke there too & he's 17.
Johnston - Also 19. As we've discussed his play & effort has fallen off a cliff & he doesn't play the style this team wants too. Issue is can u get close to what u gave up?
Omeri - 18. They have so many D & with Bridgewater really solidifying a spot im not sure where he fits especially when Barr gets healthy. Wouldn't get much in return but he deserves to play elsewhere.
Filak & Doucette - OAs. I don't see either being dealt. Both are solid OAs, but not elite ones. At most I think a team maybe hits them up last minute if one of their OAs are really weak & offers an ok pick for one of them.
Wainwright - 19. Really tough choice. He's their best F most nights. Plays a lot. Great leader/mentor for the young guys. Gonna be back next yr & be a really quality OA. Issue is they have Beamish/Edwards/Di Iorio at C & its making them move 81 to wing which isn't what we want long term, but flip side is do you want our Cs to be 17/16/16 years old? For a good return I think id do it.
Young - 19. Similar to Wainwright but on D. Their entire defence can return next season including Young. With O'Brien added Barr likely is the 7th D & we want him playing consistently. This team is significantly better when he's in & playing. He's gonna be a really good OA D imo. I think quite a few teams would be in on him if he was available.. I have more concern dealing him than Wainwright honestly, but for a really solid return I think id be fine with them doing it.
Fischer - 18. I don't see it happening, but if a team comes in & offers a substantial return (1st rounder from last yr or this yr + two 2nds + two 3rds) I wouldn't blame them for taking it.
As for adding. I think like always they will be poking around for project/reclamation type guys. Mainly at F & with some size. I do wonder if they'd be in on those goalies I mentioned weeks back (Hrebik/Hillebrandt/Egerov) so they have some certainty for G the next 2 seasons.
Not as clear of a deadline as Seca has had previously (last yr clear selling off, yr before clearly adding, yr before selling softly), but I do wanna see some moves.
