Possible but they don't have much to offer. They already sold all the players that had a certain value. Burbidge is the only one from both teams who could be worth a 1st rounder in my opinion since there is no reason to trade Kearsey at only 17.
Lots of rumor is around and we never know which one is true until the draft day.
Huang played St-Eustache which is couple minutes away from Boisbriand that's why I said local...the other 2 you indicated also are close buy I give you that but much further
Are Atlantic teams picking more Atlantic players in the first 3 rounds or they really go for who is best and available? Just wondering because I heard some Qc players would rather play in Qc so wondering if opposite is also true.
Ahh….. yeah that’s obvious every year same thing. Kids frequently would rather go lower to a favourable situation. These kids are 15/16….. the thought you go where you’re chosen . It’s not really the reality….. especially in the top two rounds.
Usually they take the best player available in at least the first 3 rounds. After, you can see that some Maritime teams don't pick in Quebec that much. Every year, you see a lot of trades to accomodate players from all provinces that wish to go back closer to their home.
Big move for a 16 year old to move to another province for sure . Not many kids are really ready for such a move at that age . We often hear of 18 year old kids going away to university and having to come home because they are home sick . Some kids are more ready than others .
I guess we will find out next week if the CSR are really significant . I have noticed some changes in ranking which defy logic and don't reflect well on the supposed knowledge of the scouts responsible for these rankings . A few players have not done extremely well in the second half of the year yet they have moved up substantially in the rankings . Others have done really well in the second half and yet we see them moving much further down in the rankings . How is that possible ? Makes you wonder who or what is influencing their decisions !!!!
You don't need to wait next week. Just look at the past drafts. CSR list is just the opinion of the CSR scouting staff on what they see on the ice. They don't even meet the players to evaluate their character and personality. Each team has their own staff, their own opinion and their own list. They don't rely on CSR list at all.
I use to scout for Gatineau for 10 years...the CSR has a lot of scouts in quebec and not a whole lot in the Maritimes...the Maritime guys get a bit lower ranked than they should...we where always told not to pay attention to the ranking but our GM used them as a guide to ask us if we have this guy ranked so low why do they have him so high...usually though they do a decent job overall, some are way off but with individual teams things can go way off too....everything is opinion.

These are just based on CSR list, not actual Moncton possible selections. So many list out there + ones from each team. But it does create a hype which is good for the leagueMoncton Wildcats

Yes, Moncton wants to show the TOP prospects.
All rounds will be done on Saturday. First round is planned for 2 hours. First round goes on stage. From 2nd round players go to the teams table when called. Selections will be available from the Q draft page and whenever teams will post it. No clue if teams calls or emails players once selection made if player is not present.
that depends if some players decide to come up though....
I think he will stay in the USA...but you never ever know with Halifax, Quebec, Moncton, who has the ability to throw money around....
