I did receive a message from him that he is all good just taking a bit of a break from posting at this point. Thankfully all good though!!Fastpace:
Where are you Bro'??!!
I think we could see Gruden as the only Knights player on the roster. Looking through the projected rosters his name is the only one that I've seen
Being selfish...but I kinda hope the projections are correct and we keep Regula and Skinner for the next month
I remember the last time he took a break... February of 2016 if memory serves... Good things happened...I did receive a message from him that he is all good just taking a bit of a break from posting at this point. Thankfully all good though!!
Named to preliminary roster. Need to still make the final rosterRegula and Gruden both named to USA team camp roster.
Kaliyev and Robertson only other OHLer's selected.

Keane has been inconsistent with his over-all play. Sometimes the 'simple play' is best.
Knights have the 'young guys ready to go.
Keane, Winslow, Montgomery and Roger will all get a chance to show their stuff.
Logan Mailloux is #3 in scoring for D-Men in the GOJHL. Hope to see him.

No one from Sarnia that bridge was burnt down over MyskiwWill London upgrade their OA’s? And if so how many Upgrades 1,2? And who would they target?
How about Meireles, Yantsis and picks as long as Stranges is coming backWill London upgrade their OA’s? And if so how many Upgrades 1,2? And who would they target?
I think you're right. A retired scout from the Knights told me that Simpson, more so than any previous GM, is inclined to make promises/guarantees to players in order to get them to report. That might include playing in 'x' number of games, etc...I believe it would have something to do with a guarantee of minutes/games for Keane’s NHL draft year so that he would report to London. watching Mailloux at the Nationals games has everyone in the building wondering why he’s not in the OHL
Avery Winslow would most likely fall into that category with Keane as well
Our board is sort of divided on Stranges with a couple of posters wanting him shipped out of town while others are hoping that he'll learn the defensive game while continuing to put up numbers. I don't want to debate the point, but I'm in the latter camp so I don't want to upgrade the roster at the expense of losing Stranges. I think we have enough assets that we don't have to. Others will disagree.How about Meireles, Yantsis and picks as long as Stranges is coming back

God, I hope notThe most cost effective thing to do would definitely be to target 2 OA's for Tymkin/Nelson, and ideally a couple of Kitchener players, but the Rangers are getting hot. Maybe they decide to stand pat/make a run.

If we were to trade him I would want back someone that will be here next season as well? Roster gets pretty thin next year for scorers and Stranges can score so we surely need something for next year? I agree we have lots of pieces to upgrade significantly this year without having to move him.Our board is sort of divided on Stranges with a couple of posters wanting him shipped out of town while others are hoping that he'll learn the defensive game while continuing to put up numbers.

I'd be shocked if they moved Stranges. I think the upside is far too great, and the time invested to date would make that a very puzzling move. I'm expecting a big second half for him in the lead up to the NHL Draft.Our board is sort of divided on Stranges with a couple of posters wanting him shipped out of town while others are hoping that he'll learn the defensive game while continuing to put up numbers.

I’ve been a Storm , Ranger STH for 30 plus years. I hope the hell the Rangers sell, sell this year. Empty the bare cupboard and then what for a few years. I’ve been asked a couple times in the last couple days why London is so successful, my reply great drafting, well coached and kids want to go there.
Mr. Rowe? is that you??Dude.....do you have a kid that plays? I can tell you from experience that NO kids want to be drafted to London. Having said that ALL kids want to get traded to London in year 2 or 3. I agree with the Coaching and the competitiveness of the teams but it sure isn't from drafting.
LOLMr. Rowe? is that you??
16 players on the current roster were drafted by the Knights.. only 3 were acquired by trade, and one of those was Myskiw, who was technically a free agent
