People were saying earlier that Buchinger and Bowman were available but there has been no more talk about them. Is Guelph selling or not ?

The toxic ones would be the so-called "fan" in this thread who sent a threat to my private messages. Kudos to them, I'll be sure to keep my opinions to myself.

I believe that has cooled down. But I believe Giroux might be still in play.
report it then.

Giroux has been scratched the last two games. I had heard even before the season started he wanted to play closer to home this year. Then they gave him the C. The last month or so he’s been completely checked out and the effort level hasn’t been the same. If I was putting my $ on the table I’d say he almost certainly is being moved and I’d put Sudbury near the top of the list. If Toure is coming back the other way I wouldn’t expect much in the way of picks and Flint doesn’t really need too many more anyway right now. If anything, do it for Giroux. He’s earned it. Let him take a run with his hometown team.

We would gladly take him however giving up a Dman when the teams weakness is defence is where it becomes complicating. Maybe a bigger deal involving Smith, Betucci and Giroux would work for Toure, and Protz.

I hate to see Toure have to be moved. I don't think Papineau needs to put himself in this predicament, lots of other moves can be made without needing to pick up a OA.

Of course that would be another option. But looks like the Petes and Wolves are having trouble hooking up on any deals this time around. But who knows if the Price is Right!

Smith and Bertucci? You sure you don’t want us to throw in Nathan Day and Coulson Pitre too?

Looks like North Bay is really going for it. They have no picks in rounds 2, 3 and 4 until 2028. At least from my count.

I think they overpaid for Ride.

I agree with that sentiment.
Going to be rough here in the bay for the next 5ish years if they get nowhere this year.

What's the difference you already gave up Hayes and Kressler! If we give up on Protz, Toure and say Taylor we would need Pitre, Grioux and Betucci.
WJ
Perfect! As long as we’re being ridiculous they’d only need Villeneuve and Walton added and it’s a done deal.

Right now? Bet. I’ll take that roster in a second. I’m actually hoping for a Wolves Memorial Cup banner hanging in 2024. If things go right between now and Wednesday….

They will have 2nds in the next two drafts, but maybe only one 3rd no 4ths over the next four drafts.
In this market, I don’t think they did. He can be a big part for 2.5 seasons. That might be important because a big sell looms for NB.
Very likely yes albeit based on some posts here he's alluded to him not wanting to play for another Memorial Cup this year anyways so that takes everyone out of the running....Saginaw and Sudbury are the the only probable landing spots but all talks point towards Saginaw if it happens
Unless Dom drastically turns his game around, NB won't get past the 2nd round IMO
