MaybeHunch? Saigeon & Mattinen for Schaefer & picks in an exchange of OA to hometowns
That’s a very good point I don’t hear mentioned near enough amid all this fantasy trade talk. The effect changing up the roster can have on team chemistry. Case in point the Wolves a few years back acquiring Faksa and Carrick in an effort to shore up. The team was doing fine and went right downhill. Not saying that will happen in Ottawa but it’s worth being aware of (I’m sure Tourigny is).We still have a bunch of second round picks in 2019 with not much room on the roster next year. It is a hard thing to tell Andree that, despite his excellent play so far, he will be second fiddle to DiPietro, who regularly plays 50-55 games a year and all of the post-season. But, how often do you get the opportunity to trade for a Memorial Cup-winning goalie who was also the Cup All Star goalie that year? So long as they don't screw up the room, they are hitting all the right notes so far.
What about Hancock in OS? He is the fourth leading scorer in the league? I also really like Mattinen as a very tough, reliable stay at home D.We have two OA spots open. There are four players on my radar:
Saigeon
Maksimovich
Durzi
Sambrook
Saigeon and Durzi would be my one-two punch but any of those four would be fantastic.

He not coming backI still have a hunch that Travis Barron may return. He has 2 points in the AHL so far and maybe Colorado could return him to reunite with their other good 20 year old prospect in Saigeon if we can pick him up.

I'd hate to see Saigeon go, he's one of our top 3 players and did SO MUCH for our team last year but it would be cool to see Schaefer (a former Jr. Bulldog) come to Hamilton if anyone comes.Hunch? Saigeon & Mattinen for Schaefer & picks in an exchange of OA to hometowns
Maybe when somebody types "an hutch" instead of "a hunch", there's no distinction between those terms.
I think Brazeau would also be a great choice
Is that a hutch or a hunch? Do you know him personally? Do you work for the 67’s? If not, I will take your words with a grain of salt.He not coming back

Coming in peace, but if Ottawa wants to go for Maksimovich, he has playoff and Memorial Cup experience which is a plus. He is also a huge team leader so that would benefit Ottawa. Erie is looking to fill the cupboards and although OAs usually don't get a huge payoff, he's worth a few picks atleast.
OMG We did it I still see Andree getting plenty of ice time. Dipietro is going to be tired when he comes back and they will probably slowly put him in the nets for games. Let's face when you have this pair with the defence that we have there is no rush.
We will be the number 1 team in the east. now it is a case of keeping both goalies fresh and injury free.
As to future trades, I think that the most we need is one player that will fit into our dressing room. Yes, we could use a player but if we get more then we are going to have to end a kid that has worked his ass off and made friends int eh dressing room home. Not good for the kid and not good for the chemistry.
People have mentioned that Villardi is available I for one do not. I see LA letting him try out for the WJC if he makes it fine. But as soon as he is back they are going to want him so they can check on his back.
Saigon could cost more than we think he like a lot of the players you mentioned are good and teams like London are going to want to get him to bolster their team.
The playoffs is all about 2 things and only 2 things.
Defence and attrition.
Defence we have but could use maybe oneplayer
atrrition is the hard part.
Teams are going to play the body against us. If we are trading for a player we need to find one that has the size and ability to hit. having a player like Galbraith that knows his role but can score also is a god send in the playoffs. Would we have won the M Cup if galbraith had not hit the Calgary leader?
A line or players that when the other team hears the footsteps they tense up a little is a good thing.
This team is a finesse team there really are not a lot of pure bangers that i can see
A 3rd line that went out and hit anything in a non ottawa jersey would be ideal.
Just think how the Petes knocked off Kingston a few years ago
I bought an hutch on Kijiji a few months ago. My wife puts dishes in it....
You guys dont really get hit to hard for WJC eh? only Chem and Dipietro...thats not badOn another note I have a feeling this is not Boyd's last move of the week. We are short bodies with two 3/3 week ends. With the Dipietro deal done it clarifies things. May as well get a forward now rather than later as we're probably losing Chem for a while also.
