Seca says there might be a couple moves between now and the trade deadline. Hopefully there not just small moves for late round picks.

Need to move Johnston, possibly wainwright make room for Di iorio in top 6 in the middle. Probably our most valuable playoff (22games 6goals 2 GWG) experienced peice really good on draws 200ft player speed and get in on offense too think the interest will be high on him if he is available. Ideally we need a RW and some picks to replace doucette and filak who are both playing RW get rid of Johnston for 8th rounder or later maybe.
Chartier I'd think might have some value the way he is playing in strathroy. I dont see chartier coming back for bigger role with Buzz.
I'd think D are set unless get interest in Bodin(very disappointing pickup) but hard to move Euros at value.
Maybe moses, would be enticing player for a team wanting some pk grit and role player with speed.

That's all I see value wise as kostuch injury maybe have hurt his value too if DS was moving him.

Thoughts?

The boys have definitely kept up with the energy & desperation. Great start. Some sweet shots & that Doucette pass for Edwards goal was nasty. Surzycia really good.

Loving the new snarl & physicality this team is playing with. You can tell it bothers other teams. Gotta keep it up!

That right there is why Casey Bridgewater should be running one of the 2 PP units. Elite skating. Walks the line. Gets a shot they traffic and in.

Some big goals to get momentum back after SSM got within one. Brown continues to be scorching hot..Beamish is on fire and what a pass on the 23 goal.

Don't even wanna waste energy on it. But Jesus fricken Christ man. These refs are a joke. How in the world does Young end up in the box & no SSM guys do? Even during the scrum the ref pointed at Young & Cloutier then Cloutier is out there for the PP???? Morons.

Some very timely goals that period to stay up 2. Big PK to start the 3rd but both Fischer & Young unavailable for it.

What an absolute clinic the boys put on in the 3rd period! Wow. Best defensive period they've played maybe all year. I'm actually sorta shocked lmao.

Brown-Beamish-Filak are unbelievable. Beamish has figured this league out me thinks. He dominated all 3 games this week. Kid is so smart & so relentless. All three get a goal, Beamish 1G/2A 14/24 on face offs, Brown 1G/1A, +4, Filak 1G, +3 & made so many subtle plays.

Easily the best game from L2. Edwards was everywhere today. Wainwright could've had 2or3 goals + provided the screen on Bridgewater/s goal. Doucette seemed to play pissed off today. He was throwing his weight around all day.

Another day where L3 must've thrown 15+ hits. Many pretty big. Hall also made some great back checks. Luecke 1st OHL goal too! Great weekend for him.

Di Ioiro/Karimov were dangerous, but barely played. Again.. *sigh*

Young/Fischer each grab 1A & go +6. Loved Hurt-O'Brien once again. Playing so simple & aggressive as a pair. Bridgewater gets the GWG & Bodin had his best game in a bit.

Surzycia rock solid as he usually is. Thought they did a great job keeping it outside, but his rebound control in particular was excellent.

5/6 on the week. Best group of games they've played consecutively maybe all season honestly. Yes, not high level teams, but they played hard, desperate & out worked all 3 teams. Great foundation to set moving forward on how they have to play if they wanna win.

This week in 3GP
Beamish 4G/3A, +7, 46/73 (63%) on draws
Brown 2G/4A, +8
Filak 1G/1A, +5 & thought he made so many good plays on PK, down low.

Young: 3A, +6
Fischer: 2G/1A, +4

Surzycia: 79/87, .908 Sv%

Top line, top pair & starting goalie absolutely delivered in a really big week for this team.

O'brien was a beast today blocking shots and making so many great passes and leaving zone really like his game.
BODIN FALLS DOWN EVEN MORE TO 6TH d and it's not close.
Bridgewater needs to play more pp and pk just earns it. IMO
Decent week 5 of 6 points but gave flint .
Let's not circle the wagans just year back to reality next week.
See how the next month shapes up for Buzz.

Moses, johnston scratch injuries? As message to them letang rather play 1 less than put them in lineup....ouch

Moses hurt. Johnston guessing scratched. We all know he wouldn't be playing like they are right now with all this physicality, hard back checking. Im fine with it. Gives Filak/Wainwright/Beamish extra shifts. Just wish he was giving 17/19 more ice...

Totally agree on O'Brien! He's been impressive. Nothing flashy, just simple & effective. He's calmed Hurt right down. Been a strong pair 5on5 and on PK.
