As far as I'm aware, yes he's just sitting out right now. I don't know if they've attempted to trade him, if he's playing anywhere else. or if he went to university. Been pretty much a media blackout on any sort of news about him.

I can't imagine thinking Ovsjannikov is worth an OA spot. His numbers are not good and watching him he looks... not good.

More just because the Gens have a completely full roster and an open OA spot if they chose to move Di Carlo. Only opening right now is backup G. Don't need the backup G to steal any games, just keep the team in them, which isn't happening right now

Windsor seems to be tweaking a few things, wonder if those tweaks could possibly include trading Dipietro?
Do that mean that Kingston is throwing in the towel early if they trade Helvig unless Bonello has some kind of renaissance. He was sheltered in Minor Midget with a very strong Toronto Titans which made his stats look attractive at the draft. All of his weaknesses were exposed in Saginaw compounded by the fact that he never took conditioning very seriously. Good luck though.
Fulcher could be on the market soon if the Bulldogs continue to sink in the standings..as he won't be back next season and Hamilton is going nowhere as their management and coaching cannot develop players..

Consensus is that Helvig is on the trade table and OS looking for a tendering to weather the storm of what remains of the season although still rumors no guarantee any sort of deal has been talked about between the Attack and Fronts

id say yes if they move helvig. Theyd be crazy right now with the way things are in the entire league anyone can beat anyone no leader either conference.

Agreed too tight right now at the moment in either conference and price tags are high in the league still from a managers standpoints. Once leaders start to pull ahead in either conference and team's managers decide to be either buyers or sellers before the trade-deadline would imagine the prices will spike again by that time while teams bulk up for post-season runs.

You know already if your team is good enough or not (or will be in the mix to be good enough if you add at the deadline). Kingston knows they aren't winning the OHL this year. They'll move Helvig whenever the price is the highest. Not waiting because they think they might have a Mem Cup team because the standings are still close
Kingston is not really an OHL Champioship contender, however, (like most years) who really is from the East? The Fronts are 2nd in the Eastern Conference right now; there's no reason to not think they could make a run for a division title this year. They'd be in tough in the finals, but that's the case most years for the east.

There's a lot of teams in the East who are very similar. But if you're a team like Kingston, you're going to take a chance of being the 1 team of the 6/7 teams that are very similar that'll win the East? But if you're not that team then you lose Helvig for nothing.
If I'm Kingston, I look at my roster and say yeah we're a good young team but this isn't the year we're winning it and move Helvig if there's a good return and then next year when my roster is better then I go for it
Exactly what the Gens did last year. They were in first place but they looked around and were like yeah we're not winning this year, let's get McShane/Blacker and a million picks and now we have 3+ years where we actually have a shot to win starting in 2018. Kingston obviously wouldn't get that kind of return but same thinking

His stats are ok and he’s been part of winners. The (claim? on wolves part) seems odd though given that the wolves have four G 18 or less, four OA, and Culina should be more concerned about completing his semester at Ryerson than joining the wolves at this time.
Kitchener will be looking to move a goalie out once Anthony Dumont-Buchard returns from injury.
Richardson or McGonigle will probably be moved to give them playing time somewhere.
Not definite number one goalies, but both have shown some potential.

Why should Culina be more concerned with finishing his semester? Maybe the kid doesn't like his course. Maybe the kid wanted to stay in the OHL but didn't have a place to play. Maybe he could transfer to LU. Word is the kid wants to return to the OHL. Not really your place to say IMO. He never had a great chance in the OHL and supposedly is quite good. Windsor tried to deal him but couldn't get what they wanted for him and then just recently allowed him to go on waivers. Wolves from what I understand have put in a waiver claim for him which costs them nothing. Maybe they are weighing their options and following this weekend you will see him make his way to the Big Nickel. With Rhodes out for at least another 2-4 weeks they can have him play a few games and if he works out the Wolves have options leading into deadline of January for overage players limited to 3. With Carson returning and Levin do back in another 3 weeks I think the forwards would be fine without Laguenesse if Culina works out.
