What players would you want from those teams


Vellaris, Williamson, Weir - Musty, McCoy

Handsor, Newton & Newton - Musty

I personally think this is going to be a deal with Erie makes too much sense, with their already supposedly being a deal for Molnar, just needs to be expanded.

With the lack of picks early that erie has it's a 2 part deal like some as suggested with a McCoy or Deangelis going for Challenger later.

My thought is upfront

To Erie
Musty

To Sudbury
Molnar
Royston
2x2nd
2x3rd

If we were talking Flint

To Flint
Musty

To Sudbury
2 of Lombardi, Martin or Pitre
2x2nd
2x3rd
1x4
1x5

Would need to sub Misiak for Molnar or Erie could not accept (any OA)

would be in jan but could be McCoy for Armis or Fimis plus Challenger.

Since the start of ‘24, Fimis is quite a bit better than any wolves OA player.
I don’t think Erie would want to part with two imports; so if you’re pitching an OA D, it has to be quick for Misiak.

How about Brantford has a possible destination? Contender. A ton of high picks to move. Only an extra 30 min or so drive (and border crossing) to his hometown than Erie is.

Probably the best place for development for the player is with Stan Butler. On a personal level, close to home on a competitive team that will make a run this season. Now the “ Challanger” in all this is to get a return of value…
I see what ya did there.. haha

What’s SBY’s window like for next year? I say this because a possible pt 2 could look like Erie sending Spence and/or Schaefer to SBY next year with a bit of a discount. Or Erie could be open to moving someone like Dylan Edwards who has this year + OA season next year.

My guess on why SBY released a statement is because they want to make it known that they won’t accept a low ball offer, they are willing to be patient and they want the appearance to be that they can still salvage things with the player. While also making the player know “we will take our time here.” Idk, that to me smells like a situation where the player has not only made the trade demand but has given them a short list of who he will go to that the team is hoping time will either buy them more offers or Musty will expand his list?

Brantford? A contender?

Maybe they’re “contending” for 3rd place in the division, but they’re definitely not contending for a championship.

Barrie and Brampton will be very good, but probably not prohibitive favourites. With the import D, a trade for the best D on the market, and the return of Vanacker to the line up; Brantford has a real chance.

Don’t think Flint would be dumb enough to trade Lombardi or Pitre.

Sudbury would process the paper work before hanging up the call if that was a legit offer.

I’ve never been that impressed with Molnar. Pitre is a year younger. Is NHL drafted. Doesn’t carry the import tag. Plays a much heavier game and is a more complete player along with having a better PPG than Molnar. Martin is better than Royston too. Lombardi? Better than both.

I agree. With their draft capitol, and maybe utilizing O’Donnell, if they feel good about themselves at the deadline, they have enough ammo to trade for a top D, a middle pairing D, and a middle six F.

And buying like that might actually be enough to win one round for Brantford.

If Oshawa does not get Callum Ritchie and Ryan Roobroek back and with only enough draft picks to make one more significant trade Oshawa may not win more than one playoff round.

As a Generals fan, I agree with that 100%. Which is why the ridiculous overpay for a one-dimensional player like Barlow was so nonsensical. He’s good - - not great - - at scoring goals but that’s about it. He’s certainly never going to put a team on his back and singlehandedly carry it to a championship the way Big 88 and Draisatl did.

Oshawa just didn’t have the depth to be giving away players like Delisle and Bedkowski, and that’s painfully evident now with the third and fourth lines being completely nonexistent for Oshawa.

So yes, without Ritchie and Roobroeck returning, there’s a very real possibility of Oshawa not getting past the second round this year.

Donnie they’re not done making trades. It’s the start of October you think they’ll stand pat when all the other teams around them make more moves? Especially Brampton. They will find someone to play in their top 9. Probably a centre.
