Someone mentioned leverage in another thread. The brothers want to play together so you are going to give me what I want for Luca or we can discuss a trade of Adam Fantilli to Niagara or you wasted a late first round pick. What other options are there?
You have less leverage than you think. The Fantillis have been upfront with teams about Adam and Lucas intentions. Noone has denied that. If they told teams they wont play in the OHL unless they are together and Saginaw cant get Lucas rights for a reasonable price by Camp they just declare Adam defected, trade his rights for a ransom of conditionals, and gain a pick in the first round next year right in thier rebuilding window. You may grab an excess OA or a pick for him, but zero chance you get a roster player Saginaw wants on thier roster for him.
