Peterborough Petes 2019-20 Season Thread (Part 2)

[Hockey Stick]

Good for Oke. Hasn't gotten as much credit as he should have. A couple of questionable moves here and there, but what GM hasn't had a few of them?

I was a big believer in see how this year goes before extension. Let’s see if this gives him the confidence to go all in this trade deadline if he can take us far this season he has the pieces to secure himself another extension in his next contract year after what this draft class has shown so far

Trouble with that is a GM in their last year will empty the cupboards totally leaving nothing at all to move forward with nothing to lose. Big risk guess they didn’t want to take

Teddy Bear Toss tomorrow night. Who do you think will score the goal that unleashes them? I'll pick Kirk.

 

[MCur19]

I'll take Gallant

Nick Robertson in his first game back!

It always makes me laugh seeing them all rain down the way they do. I'll go a little off the board and pick David Maier

 

[Diaero]

I'll go with Merkley scoring the own goal, pulling off his Knights jersey to reveal the Maroon and White sweater underneath. The whole trade and attitude issue was just a deep undercover ruse to trick the league.

So no more 'Check Yes or Denault'?

 

[Ptbomillsy619]

Let the trades begin

 

[SpezzaNoLookDropPass]

Hey guys from the bay what can you tell me about Denault

 

[Zebra]

Good luck to Denault -I really liked his style of play.

I am picking Chisholm for the Teddy Bear goal because he will probably want to play the best game of his life to show Dale Hunter

Doesn't take a shift off. Definitely not a flashy player in any sense, but seems like a guy that players gravitate towards. A good body to have around your bunch of young players, especially at the cost of only a 15th rounder.

Very hard worker, good penalty killer, finishes his checks, never got a chance to play much in an offensive role here but was valuable in a defensive role. By all accounts a good guy.

Passed by this year by unexpected emergence of rookies Tucker Robertson and Keegan McMullen, as well addition of first rounders McTavish and Avon, plus the trades for 2 OA dmen has pushed John Parker-Jones to forward to play a similar big body forechecking role. Only so many forward spots to go around and he's been a healthy scratch of late.

Best case scenario is maybe similar to what Nick Isaacson did last year after being traded by Petes - he didn't get much of an offensive role here but has shown a bit more in Mississauga and earned himself an OA spot there.

 

[Bra Wavers]

I’ll take Hinz for the teddy bear toss goal

I wonder if Merkley will get hit with any flying stuffed animals when the goal is scored?......pretty good chance that he will be on the ice when it happens

 

[ptbopete]

I'll go with Mctavish.

 

[NorthernVoice]

So, Nick Robertson definitely in tonight?

 

[sbpointer]

I'll take third period TV time out... I kid I kid. I'll go off the board and say Liam Kirk scores the teddy goal.

Looking forward to an exciting game tonight. Teddy Toss night is a great hockey community tradition that puts smiles on a lot of kids faces.

No ones picked SDA for teddy bear goal so I’ll take him on a 2 on 1 where he decides to shoot instead of pass, shocking everyone in the building

He's got a beauty shot when he uses it!

 

[Ptbomillsy619]

Butler is going to make it rain

Starting the beers early on game day I see... I like it!

 

[foghorn]

should be a tough checking game vs london on the big guns so im going with maxwell grondin to make the bears fly

 

[Hockey Stick]

Well I guess Keane was the right answer
