I think Mooseheads still have some assets to have a strong year next season. It would consist a lot of young prospects and Round 2-3 picks to go and we’d probably get good players from bad teams. I have a feeling Mooseheads will trade Jocktan Chainey and Walter Flower but keep Patty Kyte as an Overager next season, maybe even Joel Bishop as well but not sure who’d take him and for what. Don’t think any other overagers would be good enough. Morand and Safin are highly likely to go to the AHL. I wish next season was a rebuild year so we could become stronger faster but from the looks of things we’ll probably end up like the Titan in 2020-21 season. Here’s a little fantasy roster and trades I came up with for next season. Not sure if these are acceptable trades either but I think so. Not sure if Durandeau and Chainey will make the AHL or not either but I doubt it.
