Tweaking won’t get this team a championship i don’t think. Not when other load up. So if you can get something for a player that won’t be back then why not do it? I do not want to see a trade like 11 when they moved Locke who had 19 goals as a rookie in 33 games for a player that sticks around half a year. They should not be looking to trade a young guy this year.They didn't trade any of the cores, though. Maxwell (never played), Lalonde, Johnston, Brassard, Bezzo... those weren't key guys. No comparison to dealing Angle, Boka, Afanasyev, Douglas, Corcoran, etc.
I'm not in the "stand pat" group, but the "tweak it" group.
Just so you know nobody really cares since you keep posting the same dumb stuff over and overNorth Bay loses 3-2. But my Hounds lose 10-4 , not once, but twice. Lmao.
Exactly, sell your older kids and the ones that are most likely not going to come back next season. This team really needs d’sTweaking won’t get this team a championship i don’t think.

Uhhhhh they had to trade Jesse Blacker/Garrett Wilson/Austin Watson/Andrew Yogan. The 4 players I just mentioned were more talented than this group you mention for Windsor.

Well i’m the only one that put in a holiday truce.Aside from Blacker, they weren't the core, though. The most any of those guys had was a season-and-a-half under their belt. I've also said I'm not against trading Ladd or Henault, who would be comparable (in terms of years) to Blacker. If they had traded Shugg, Nemisz, Cundari, etc... those guys, that's a whole other ballgame.
This is becoming the debate that'll never end, even after Friday. I'm guessing the holiday truce is long gone haha
C'mon Bowler, time to tweak for a second round exit, shorten the draft board so next year and beyond when they have a true contender they still can't take advantage of it.
That's the way to do it, sustained success by having a winning product twice a decade.
Be bold like 07/08 or spend it all like 16/17, anything else is half assing things.
Knights fans on twitter saying their club doesn’t do shady **** because they’ve never been caught
Thats a big bag of worms been opened many times.
Windsor looks stacked. How do you see them in the playoffs?

Assuming they add a piece or two this week, I see them finding ways to get the wins and getting into the second round, at least. They have the talent but need consistency.
Windsor is not stacked. They are a 4-5-6 team who have played above their heads. Most here will agree they are playing much better than expected. I defy someone to say they called them to end up 3rd or higher.Windsor looks stacked. How do you see them in the playoffs?
Question, where do you see them finishing in the standings at the end of the regular season if they make a couple of, likely small additions while everyone else around them (London, Kitchener, Saginaw, Flint) make much larger additions?
Absolutely imperative that they win the division if they want to win a playoff series. If Saginaw wins the division we are talking a 3-5 seed and at that point it's a flip of the coin. If they do nothing at the deadline and we are talking about a coin flip 1st round series it makes the organization and Bowler look dumb.
Spend now and gain in a year or two. We just don’t have the team this year, sorry.A couple of games ago Saginaw was ahead of them and now they're in fifth, one point behind Windsor. Standing pat or a minor tweak or two won't keep them in the top four of the conference. Even Flint being eight points back and in sixth can catch them quickly if they make some solid additions.
People look at their record, which as Punch said they are playing much better than expected but if you look only at their record and not what others are doing and will do then you're no being realistic about what will likely happen. Minor tweaks won't cut it. If people want them to make minor tweaks then they should realize what the consequences will likely be. If they want to stay up in the standings and have a legitimate shot at getting beyond the second round then that'll cost a lot more then I think this team is willing to spend, based on Bowler's words. If getting to the second round is some grand accomplishment then some in this fan base have reached rock bottom in terms of how low they are willing to set the bar in terms of what a successful season, while spending assets looks like.
