OVERAGERS

[bcspragu]

Saginaw have 5 listed still for camp. I cannot see Prostevov being a backup, so I don't expect to see him there for long.

Why would you think Prosvetov is going to be the backup. Love Lennox for sure, but hes not even draft eligable this season. Let them split starts 60-40 to not overwork Ivan and let them have the best goalie duo in the O.

In all likeliness Gilmour and Webb are the ones on the outside looking in, unless the NYI sign Coskey and Arizona assigns Ivan to the ECHL.

Here is a link to post #37 of this thread, the one that I am maintaining with a list of overagers in the league.

If anyone has information about overagers to add or remove from the list, please post them below with a brief explanation and I will happily update it.

You can remove Cade Robinson from Owen Sound Attack roster. Dale DeGray confirms in a news article that Cade and Attack have parted ways.

Edit: Just checked Rapid City's roster, looks like they have a couple goalies already so maybe he will be back.

Yeah, him being back is definitely being pushed by Joey and a few others. Of course nothings for certain. He's talented enough to go pro, its just where Arizona thinks hes best suited to play. With 6 signed goalies, I think he'd be ECHL bound and personally Id say 40ish OHL starts plus playoffs with some pro seasoning afterwards would be more beneficial for his development than potential back up duty in the E

Windsor's Ben Garagan is going to college up in Sudbury, I believe. He's not returning to the Spitfires.

 

[HockeyPops]

FYI - CJ Clarke cracked the SSM preseason roster. Tried out after being released from Mississauga and scored 4 points including a hat trick in last night's annual Red & White game.

 

[PhlyerPhanatic31]

The Knights will have Coome and Nelson available in the very near future I would think

 

[NorthernVoice]

FWIW, Gallant is still expected to be with the Petes - Zach Gallant Signs Entry-Level Contract with San Jose Sharks – Peterborough Petes

Nipissing University in North Bay (hometown).

I thought I saw Laurentian (Sby), but either way is fine. He's not on the Spits, that's the point haha

He's going to Nipissing

 

[OHLTG]

He's going to Nipissing

Fair, just going on what I had remembered seeing. Again, either way works, he's just not on the Spits haha

Anyone have interest in Luke Richardson? There really isn't an asking price, Rangers are saying they are just trying to find him a place to play this year....just curious.

Gens could be. Right now they're debating using an OA spot on Aidan Hughes, and Richardson is better than him

Popular opinion in Flint is that the Firebirds for sure would have interest in adding an OA goaltender.

EDIT-Well, this happened today. Not Richardson, but Popovich.

 

[PhlyerPhanatic31]

Paul Cotter will likely be back in London

 

[LDN]

Who will the top 5 OA's be?

 

[HockeyPops]

Depends on how you are evaluating them? By points? By impact to a team? Looking at all OAs, or just OAs likely available to acquire?

If you are just talking about points, then my top 5 OAs available to acquire would probably be:
McGregor
Struthers
Hawel
Neumann
Chenier

If you include players not likely available for trade, I think you would have to throw Meireles and Keating into the conversation.

 

[NA Hockey]

My Top 5 based on Impact and Potential Points/Goals

Yantsis - Will score 50+ goals, probably highest goal scorer in the league
Keating - Probable 100 point player this year
Coskey - Possible 100 points this year
Hawel - Should be dominant this year
Neumann - Will put up big points

HM: Durham, McGregor

Still the chance some top OA's may be back RE Prov in Saginaw but these OA's definitely make my list-

McGregor
Neumann
Hawel
Hayton in the SOO - ya not an OA but seems like he has been a pain in the butt forever!

Meireles was 3 off 100 last season and plays on a line with Jonny Yantsis

So with Garreffa, Richardson, and Johnson off of the list for now, we're left with only five teams with additional OA's. Barrie, Oshawa, London, and Mississauga with 1 and Sarnia with 2.

I could see players like Cameron, Resnick/Hughes, and Coome just being released if nobody has a spot for them. As for Sarnia and Mississauga, I think that they will both have to move a quality piece. Unresolved situations in Saginaw may also see them move a player like Webb ot Busdeker.

I see Kitchener, Oshawa, Peterborough, and the Soo as contenders that might add an impact OA.

Random predictions, I think Martin goes to Peterborough, McHugh back to Kitchener, and Grima to the Soo. Oshawa may hang onto Hughes for now and add someone later once they know whether MacLean is their guy or not.
