probably would be a few depth picks, 3 and 5 maybe? not sure if they would be super motivated to do it.

I like the Holmes deal a lot. Just the kind of guy I was hoping for. Is it a bit of an overpayment? Probably but unless I’m mistaken he’s got the kind of character that will mesh with this team. As for Harrison I’m really not familiar with him so I’ll leave that for others. Don’t know how many cards are left but can imagine there are a few more moves that will be made. Perhaps a waiver or two.

Since we bought this year - we’ll be sellers next year.
Should get those picks back if we trade a good portion of the O/A and Abraham.

Well Harrison and Holmes without losing any bodies yet! Might see a player two given up for some picks back. But not a bad day I would say.
Seems London, Windsor, Kitchener and Sarnia are the top 4 unless Flint and Saginaw make moves too.

It's the only way you would draw him out of OS and looks like we are all in this year so why not.
I am fine with keeping Onuksa, after all he led the squad to game 7 of the OHL finals. I believe Costanzo will be the number one though, dude has the ability to steal games. If you watched the game in Owen Sound, he won that game for them.

You better be getting Kaleb Lawrence back too then.
I suck at goaltending evaluation so can’t comment on his play - but pulling a HL11 if you purely just looked at the numbers they’re not so much better than Matty O.
Go after Cranley if you want a solid O/A goalie and want to pony up assets to do so.

Yes I'm big on Costanzo but what happens if he goes down?

Yes had a tough year but a new home closer to home and his numbers would be better. I think he has lost interest there. And yes I'm not good at predicting trade value but I see him worth a conversation.

FWIW:
I do believe that Windsor was in on Wright, but balked at the asking price and did a lateral to Harrison who was believed to be going to London as early as this morning.
Great example of the Spits getting a guy so their rival couldn’t.

Chenard has played very well against the Spitfires in Windsor. Something like eight goals on 90ish shots?
Wright to Windsor was being discussed for weeks so this doesn't surprise me. The talk I heard was Miedema + lots of picks. However, Harrison knows some guys on the Spitfires and the price there is reasonable (plus they keep Miedema). Better overall move.

Yes he has played very well in front of family at the WFCU.
lawrence would be worth alot more then that. ride has been shopped already, im not sure if there is alot of interest as of yet.
chenard at one point was a top 5 goalie, he had a 925. he hit the skids the last 10 games. just depends which goalie you think your getting.

His tough year talking Chenard are close to what Onuska did here last season in regular season
Onuska was 3.34,with a save per centage of .882,while Chenard this year is 3.37 but save percentage is 890.
With him from Tecumseh could work here, if Spits are going to keep an OA goalie I would take Chenard.

Minus the nagging injury thing. Anyway probably not happening so we will let Bowler do the GM thing .
probably, owen sound has george in jb, they may not want onuska. hence the 3/5th i suggested. hed be a decent high risk/high reward buy. lennox out of saginaw would be another, not sold hes a fit off ice thou.
BB went big today. Im thinking most are a little surprised he spent and added that big.
I like aggressive management.

I really don’t think O Flaherty would really bring back any of the 2nds/3rds.
Big D Holmes with 2 PIMs in 33 games, did I read that correctly? He’s a +9 on a -1 team. Not sure how physical he is as I’m not familiar with the player but certainly appears to be reliable.
Well that didn’t age well. LOL

He's not a physical dman by any means. Not his game but wish it was. To be quite honest he didn't play like a top dman on this team. Always making you want more. No NHL contract as yet either and doesn't look like he will be recieving one in the near future. Hopefully he'll slide in on the spits and be a solid piece
O'Flaherty, McLlwain, Johnston, Hebek, Jodoin, Morneau all expendable with little impact. Not that they would draw big returns but moving forward next year these are all bodies that should be upgraded. Nothing personal just hockey is also a business. The OA spots open next year will bring back some assets when that is sorted out.
