Is there a deadline to add players? I noticed the tournament has started but are you allowed to add players as the games go along?

Carolina GM Ron Francis says plan is for goalie Jeremy Helvig to play one more year of junior with OHL Kingston. Canes have glut at position
What should we expect from Todd Gill ?? What style did he encourage when in Kingston? Would you take him back if he was available?
Dylan Davies (Chi Mission '00) may help blueline if he reportsSo next year? I expect Nichol, Helvig and Murray as OAs, although Harding could be valuable as well if they want to deal Helvig. I think they need to get some more 19 year olds (particularly one on defense). Only ones now are Field and Cranford. I don't know if Davis returns.
Robertson -- Nichol -- Nyman
Dunkley -- Neumann -- Cranford
Popov -- Burnie -- Pringle
Larabie/Drewitt -- Morgan -- Field
Larabie/Drewitt -- Davis?
Paquette -- Rasanen
Murray -- Brahaney
Brand -- Gordon

Kingston was a mess when Gill arrived on the scene and I give him full marks for turning the franchise around,I think he got a raw deal too....He will get a lot out of the players and make them accountable on and off the ice,He has a pretty good track record of getting kids to develop...I think he is a puck possession type of coach that likes to create chances off the cycle,but he had so many small guys that were marginal OHL players it was hard to do in Kingston...I think he will be great in Owen Sound.
