Done for season.Is it confirmed that Busby is done for the year? UBI, same one as the preseason?

I think he could be had for the right priceThink Gordeev could be had for the right price or is he an untouchable?

Problem is what Gens would be willing to part with; probably not a comparable ‘99 or 2000 D (Gens don’t have) or Brewer.
So it comes down to whether Stillman or Brassard + 2018 pick or multi-player deal makes any sense?
Or he is sending a message to someone else on the team?It's a developmental league. He's developmentaling them.

Forgive me but I really don't understand your response? If a coach is upset with his #1 power play and sees an opportunity to send a message to them then he throws out his #4 line while #1 sits on the bench - If this is not the case then I have no idea what you were trying to say - I will move along if you wish.Umm I'm thinking your probably reading a little to much into it. Checking out again since the drama doesn't seem to have dissipated here.
Pretty impressive performance tonight. Sure, Sarnia is missing some bodies but Flint is without Busby, Kislinger and Gretz too. The team looks better, goalies have looked better and Roberts has been a really nice addition. They outplayed Saginaw last night too but Cormier is actually pretty good now and they didn't get any bounces. It doesn't help Saginaw is really good at blocking shots, getting sticks in the lane and breaking up plays. They roster 5 16yo's and 5 17yo's when Gretz is healthy. I don't mind watching a team that young perform like they have since Moore and Caamano departed. Congrats to Ty on the hat trick tonight. I also thought they out played Saginaw. Didnt bury the chances we had, but that will come with time. Didnt see Sarnia game but by stats looks like they played pretty good. If all our 1st year and 2nd year players come back next year and the addition of some more top draft choices we could be be very good. Thats my worry though. That these guys want to come back or want to be traded and will top picks come here if the behind scene stuff s still going on.
They had some significant injuries last year, as well. The biggest was probably Kirwan's concussion(s) that derailed him after a red-hot start to the season. He was out for a significant number of games, then was never the same after he was able to come back. I think it's just much more noticeable this year, because they aren't as deep.Is it just me or have there been a lot more lasting injuries this year? Busby out for the season with a shoulder? Gretz out 4-6 with a shoulder? Hopefully they heal quick it's hard to develop a young team if they are sitting on the IR! The games I've been to so far this season have still been fun despite the win/loss record though but hopefully we can pick it up and turn things around for the second half.
...and it's a little easier to hide the loss of a forward or two as opposed to two D. Especially when one of them was expected to be top 4 or maybe even getting top pair minutes.They had some significant injuries last year, as well.
