London Knights 2022-23 Season Thread (Part 2)

[GoKnightsGo44]

I can’t see us adding an import or upgrading OAs, we only need FWD depth in 2003 DOB.

I see Lambardi, is there any others that fit the bill if Harrison is out?

 

[TF519]

Why?

Overpaying and blocking ice for tangible development. The team as constructed can win two rounds, Harrison will not singularly put a banner in the rafters.

 

[Square Corners]

I wouldn't close the door on Harrison just yet

TF519 will have to pretend like he wanted him then!​

 

[jamemcca]

And seemingly the price for deadline deals has returned to the pre covid crazy madness around the league

Some of the whiners thought it would be a good idea to limit draft picks that can be traded. There was no reason for it

 

[Rounder8]

That’s very true! Who is available?

I doubt they would do it because they just traded with Hamilton, but I would have to think that Artem Grushnikov is available. VERY solid Dman. Excellent on the pk and tough. Great shot blocker. Not much offense though.

I think that he will be moved.

Del Monte will not get you anything now with his injury and with his past injury. Not looking to be available for a while so no team is going to pick up a player just injured at WJC

I am talking about a few late picks Rounds 12-15...someone will pay if he can play. That will be the key

 

[PhlyerPhanatic31]

Sign the kid playing goal for the Slovaks. Kid is a stud

 

[dino200022]

I am thinking Humphrey is going to be the perfect compliment to add to the McCue-Sim pairing

Why not just keep him for an overage season?

 

[GoKnightsGo44]

This is huge, I expect some rust but we are looking at playoff form down the line.

 

[PhlyerPhanatic31]

He has likely been cleared to play for quite some time. This deal will also answer everyone's question as to why Testa got so little ice time. Neither team wanted their player put into a situation to be injured and nix the entire deal

McCue, Humphrey, Federkow....another player that is better....hell if Mailloux is not allowed to play in the A then he would be nice to have around as an OA

Interesting speculation. Who knows if it’s true but it does make sense!

Can still recover more for him as a healthy OA then giving him away now...

Shutdown line!

 

[LDN]

No Edward suspension announced...assuming its not happening ?

I would assume that the league has more common sense than the two reffing that Sarnia game.

There should be no suspension.

Nor should there have been a match penalty in the first place.

Checked the scorers sheet and its been downgraded to a game misconduct (48.3). Will get confirmation tonight

 

[TheCoach]

Zhilkin to Kitchener so he is off the table. Is Mississauga selling? If so they have a few guys who would look great in Knights uniforms. I still think Harrison would be great?

Any word on suspension to Edward?

Any word on Humphries being in the lineup tonight? I’m assuming Winterton is out, but close to making his debut?

Is Federkow injured? What about Mackinnon?

Iv heard league looked at it and decided the 5 he got Sunday was enough

I like Federkow’s physical presence on right wing but you would take him as an overager before Del Monte?!

If there are better options than RDM, I agree. But in today’s world, good overagers are usually in limited supply.

 

[LDN]

Thoughts?

Somtimes the best ability is availability. When RDM is not hurt he is constantly breaking curfew and other team rules. Does not sound like much of a team player I want around.
