Im sorry maybe im on a Island here but no one will get past the Knights just to much depth...there going to win the league again this year.
If before the new year started, you told me that the Knights would get a goalie drafted in the 2nd round of last years nhl draft and a top 4 defenceman without giving up a single asset, I'd be happy.
However, seeing what Kitchener and Owen Sound have done we need to make a move to keep up. Dont care about next year, this is this year. If Domi and Horvat get drafted to teams who keep them up, then how good does next year look? You play for this year (while keeping an eye on next year).
Looking further down the road, Halifax added a shotblocking penalty killing face off specialist with 20 something goals (can you say Austin Watson) named MacAuley from St John's.
Come on Mark, do not miss out on a Trochek or Strome....make it happen!

Domi ranked 13th currently on TSN's Craig Button list of top prospects list while Horvat is 30th.......lately, very few players who are not in the top 5 play in the NHL at 18 years of age. They'll be playing in London next season....
Not even top 5 usually. No chance these guys are in the show next year. Both would be lucky to make it in 3-5 years.
I believe they will both be back next year to, but they won't be in London the year after that......not a chance IMO!
Are you aware the asking prices ?
Trochek is going to take a pair of prospects to land since Hunters don't have a 96. So I can see where Mark and Dale are very hesitant to part with a Liberati, Elie for a rental.
Maybe by the end of tomorrow when prices slide they come in late....but right now it seems they are holding onto their kids.

Just told 3 possible #OHL trades. I'll give player details only if/when I can confirm. #Plymouth #Saginaw #Barrie #Niagara #London #Sudbury

How could I be? I doubt you know what the asking prices are. Isn't Herbst a 96? I'd part with Jammes or Pawley in a heartbeat even for a rental. Bottom line is, when teams like Owen Sound and Kitchener acquire the talent they have it becomes a bit scary to stand pat.
Regarding Domi and Horvat - next year - ok, you are all probably right they will be back. My point is, a lot can happen in a year. If you have a great team why not try to put it over the top?
And a '96 and/or 'kids' like Pawley, Jammes, Liberati are not going to be the difference of whether or not we are a great team next year.
I believe they will both be back next year to, but they won't be in London the year after that......not a chance IMO!
Do you think Pawley+Jammes+Liberati= Trocheck?
Now Barrie/Niagara happened with the Perlini trade. So Plymouth, Saginaw, Sudbury and London have to come together in some form. Would Saginaw trade with Plymouth? If not it seems it's Sudbury/Plymouth and London/Saginaw making deals...
According to Mark Edwards (on twitter), if the Plymouth trade goes through, Whaler fans will be very happy. (no word on who the trade partner is.)
I will say this, if the deal I heard involving Plymouth happens Whalers fans should be happy. #OHL
