SSM Greyhounds 2023-24 Season Thread (Part 2)

[LDN]

London still has the top D in the league. If you want Edward and George maybe send an 06/07 and picks

Greyhounds add depth up front in deal with Storm (update)

Third-year winger Justin DeZoete is the latest addition to the Greyhounds roster

[DeletedAccountt]

Well here we go everyone! Looks like the team is set! Time to go for a RUN!

I 100% do. He needs to draft players to play with Martin. He can restock 2025+ with gibson et al next year.

The birth years adjacent to your best group are still important for that group to succeed.

*shakes fist* hahaha fair play

We are trying to win with our top-5 defensive group in the league. What is London trying to do with theirs?

WHY ARE WE YELLING?

 

[DeletedAccountt]

My ears hurt

 

[DWI Dale]

a little disappointed in the lack of upgrade on D. a single injury on defense and we are dressing 3x17 year olds. a championship caliber team will feast on that bottom half imo.

why go almost all in but fail to address defensive depth?

 

[HockeyPops]

I LIKE OUR 7TH D BETTER THAN ANY OF THE 7TH D THE OTHER TEAMS HAVE

(when can we stop yelling?)

Sirizzotti isnt reporting, not sure if the soo knew that before the trade.

 

[Jives]

Who is your 7th D? Who is the 6D? Just wondering how Rangers D depth compares. It scares a lot of Kitchener fans.

 

[HockeyPops]

D Depth
2004 Kudryavtsev
2005 Gibson
2004 Karki
2004 Carlisle
(a bit of a gap here)
2006 Virgilio
2006 Evans/McConnell-Barker
2006 McConnell-Barker/Evans

Sandhu would’ve been perfect. Didn’t cost a lot

 

[Jives]

Kitchener in order D depth (rating based on talent for age group not OHL overall)
Bruz 2004 A+
Ando 2005 A
Motew 2003 B
Savard 2005 B (my guess - new player)
Reid 2007 A+ (awesome but young)
Campbell 2006 B-
7th D - Dirracolo 2006 C-

damn, Lavoie went for peanuts. would have been great to grab him as another scorer. great possible overager next year as well.

 

[HockeyPops]

Pretty reasonable price for secondary scoring, but I really don't think we are short on scoring. Forwards we have with higher PPG than Lavoie:
Hayes, G
Beck
Mignosa
Allard
McConnell-Barker
Cloutier
Frasca
D'Intino
Hayes, T
>>> Lavoie

i'm sure if he was already on our team, he'd be way higher. Niagara isn't exactly lighting it up. would have brought a lot to the lineup. and an OA next year. i think he's going to be one of the reasons taht brantford does well these playoffs.

when you don't get another experienced Dman, you can never score too many, IMO anyway

Wasnt Soo out of cards yesterday?

 

[Houndzfan20]

no

 

[HockeyPops]

Strange, DeZoete is marked as inactive on our roster. Hopefully it's just a clerical error?

Wasnt Soo out of cards yesterday?

Soo hasn't moved many players this year. I count 27 cards used.

 

[SSMHoundsFan]

Either Raftis is confident in the team we have or there's some talks in the background about signing someone....was really hoping to see another D added

noticed that, he's not on our roster, and inactive on the stats page
