DeGray said he was involved in “a lot” of deals “but came up short”. He noted one particular deal he thought was done, but then the player involved became part of a bigger package put together for “a ridiculous price”.
This has gotta be Sale no? Open import spot and there was a hold up for a few hours before that deal with Kitchener became official.

I doubt it. It sounded like Seattle was the catalyst for that trade, and dictated the destination.
Wonder who that was then trying to read between the lines. Unless it was Donovan or Van Vleit

Could still have been the Sale deal because Degray said the player was inserted into a bigger deal. The player could have been Olivier Savard.

I wouldn’t call that deal a ridiculous return though. It may be an example of a team having to use their 1st rounder because of lack of picks but those are three really solid OHL players.
EDIT:
After looking at that deal again, I think my initial assessment of it not being ridiculous was inaccurate. It was pretty ridiculous. Way too many picks added.

I’m super happy the Generals didn’t do anything too dumb by giving away Danford or Bedkowski.
The Sandhu deal is mediocre - - the 3rd and 5th round picks could have been better spent next year when the team is a more realistic contender.
But the Sandhu trade is a much better deal that the Punnett/Stewart deal.

Had fun talking OHL with a bunch of you over the past few days!
@OMG67 you were right in your speculation on Mayich. 2nd, 2nd, 3rd, 4th was 100% tabled as a doable return for Mayich from what I heard. The hold up was the corresponding move that couldn't get done. They were never trading Mayich outright like that.
Would've loved that extra layer of fun to transpire, but oh well.
Best of luck to all contending teams!

It was the only thing that made sense for that deal to happen. It would be interesting to find out what that deal was…
If I had to guess, it was the Sale/Savard deal….

This just in, Darren Dedobbelaer left several voicemails at the OHL head office. His phone was set to PST. Wasn't by accident though, as he wanted to know how it felt to live in the mountains. What could have been.
Hmmmmm what education packages can I quickly get rid of.. team performance who cares ! Money is all I care about “dd”
Great trade season. Now that we see everybody’s moves and upcoming picks, can we start speculating on next year’s buyers?!

Peterborough had a fantastic deadline as it was - - had they managed to pilfer an 06 defenceman from Oshawa, these next few years would have been very painful for Generals fans.
I can see Vilmanis (with Misiak not for trade) as being the only import for NB and OS. But that would be an odd statement for DeGray to make he set the price for a #4 D and 3rd line F at a 16 yr old and a 3rd.
Erie doesn’t have assets to spend. Hope I'm wrong, but I can't see them being buyers next season. Very discouraging.
It is too bad that they don’t pick a direction. Great fans and barn but an oddly inactive management team. Your fans deserve a run.
Might be worth it to pick a player who won’t report in the first round. You’d get the compensation first rounder next year but would likely add 3 x 2 and 2 x 3 for the approximately 5th overall pick. Your management team would really need to veer out of their comfort zone.
In the final year of Sova, Torrence and Fimis, I hope they go for it. The West will be a heck of a lot easier next year. If not next year, when?
If not next year, the east should be particularly strong in 2025-26. There are a lot of picks and good ‘06s that reside in the east.
Erie did pick a direction, I think; be a playoff team this season preparing to contend the next.
Sorry I've been busy since noon today........I'm gonna make a killing selling programs all across the OHL!
