Jaedon Descheneau Returned to Kootenay. Something I wasn't expecting. I wonder what the Ice do now.

What is the Import situation on yours favorited WHL team. How many imports and there age
Wheat Kings should trade Winkler IMO. No room for him with Bukarts and Provorov.
Wondering if he could be part of a package for a big name. Any guesses on some top players that will be on the block?
You cant trade first year imports. They can only find a spot for him in a different league, like Everett did with Waltteri Hopponen, sending him to the USHL when Mirco Mueller was sent back from the Sharks.
Your right. They can just release em, but that would be a dick move. It's McCrimmon though so ... he don't careYes, don't think teams HAVE to find a spot in a differnt league, they CAN just release them. Problem is, that doesn't look good to european agents who may have future players for your team.
Yeah I forgot about that rule...
Winkler will have to go then. Just nowhere near Bukarts or Provorov. Would make things even more interesting if Kylington got sent here from the AHL somehow.
Hoping Kelly pulls of another trade this year for a bigger name rental. Think they can really go for it this year.
The Wheat Kings can't keep Bukarts because he would also take a over age spot which will not happen, because Waltz and Erkamps are needed on the blueline and then McGauley gets the last over age spot.
That is true.
Well, the question is I guess who has room for another import AND another over age?
FYI: Winkler was just released.
Not sure what WHL teams would have room for a player who is a 20 years old and a import player, what is the situation on your favorite WHL team?
Bukarts is an elite offensive talent, it is a shame the Wheat Kings can't keep him.
They might be planning to keep him. They did bring in Dom Thom, presumably for a reason. Also it's possible Pilon returns. Could see the overagers being Bukharts, McGauley and Erkamps
I was thinking Bukharts is a pretty big player this year. Likely 40 goal man. Would Pilon be welcome back in the room? Players don't normally take to kindly to team mates quitting on them. Also, looks like Kylington is knocking it out of the park in Stockton. Looks like pro hockey in North America agrees with his development. From the outside looking in, he seems like an awful long shot to be sent to back to junior a second year in a row. Wish you guys well this year. Hope you can put it all together.Not going to happen Kelly is a very loyal to his veteran players like Waltz who is a heart and soul guy. They need every veteran defensemen they can. I wish Pilon would return they miss him. I think there is a chance they may get Kylington send down to Brandon who would help there defensemen which has been their week point this season. Clague is a very good offensive d-man but his defensemen needs work.
