Windsor Spitfires 2024-25 Season Thread, Part III

[thespitslurker]

Im content with the trades hes made I think it will help our team this year and next. The only thing I wish now is if we could swap future mid picks so we get a 4th and 5th round pick this year. The new NCAA rules will make the draft more interesting we should jump on that opportunity. Other than that I would mind getting anything back for guys like Gaymes or Winegard but the chances of that will be impossible lol

Ottawa aggressively trying to move Henry Mews as per rumors. Not saying the Spits are interested but sounds like he's available.

Sounds like Sudbury getting Mews

Not a fit for the Spits. He would spend more time in the offensive zone than Greentree does. Make Christforo look like the most defensive D in the league.

Bowler made 1 move.
Minimum done is what he evaluated the team.
Onto the season..

So, they got their 05F in McNamara and their 05D in Kennedy. Bowler did what he set out to do without altering the core. Let's see how it plays out.

Actually made 2 moves. Strengthened the D with hopefully a player returning for his OA season and got more depth at Forward. Both moves needed. Just have to wait and see if they were the right players.

Some mentioned that they should get an experienced back-up G. Usually, an experienced G would be an 05, That made no sense, since they would then have 2 OA Goaltenders next year.

I’m in minority here but if they weren’t going to make a move to go for it now and feel next year is there year then i think they should have sold a bit to get in some picks they could use next year to make the big moves. I felt they should have upgraded more to go for it now. We were in same situation couple years ago and they year they thought was their year didn’t turn out too well. I’ve always felt that if your team arrives quicker then expected then you got to just go. Next year is never guaranteed
