Sarnia Sting 2018-19 Season Thread (Part 2)

[Texcanuck]

Very disappointing couple of games there. This bar for this team is second round. I still think they can win a round. I think it would be amazing for our young guys if we won a round, get that experience. Id die if we got one of those guys mentioned above too.

Oh-oh... possible second passing in a week!!

Rees had a great game in Hamilton over the weekend and scored a beautiful goal.he is definately moving up the draft rankings in the NHL.Cant wait to watch him in the playoffs with his grinding style,sneaky speed and quick hands,plus strong on the puck.

he was ok in Hamilton. still no passing and led to goal in OT

He did the matador in OT. Ole’
Don’t get me wrong, I think he’s gonna be excellent, but still has lots to work on. Ruzicka much better when Rees returned.

Hopefuly the staff can continue to develop those guys, and hopefuly they can bring in an American or two from those 01 or 02 draft classes to help

Unfortunately Eliot has done little in the past week to improve his trade value, in my opinion. Bad, selfish penalties in the 3rd period of the latest home game and a terrible gaffe in OT in Erie to give up the game winner. Anybody scouting would not have been impressed

I would never judge a 20 year old player on a couple mistakes which happen to every player in the world. Besides he does too much good then bad, and NHL scouts noticed That’s why he got signed.

Hey, he’s still our top D man. All I’m saying is that teams who are looking to shore up their blueline with an OA for a playoff run (read 67s) might pause for a moment if they had a man in the stands for these games. They weren’t Mitch’s best moments.

nope definitely not, but I’m sure other available defenceman have made some mistakes in the last week or two, and he’s one of the top OA defenceman available which if I was Ottawa I’d be looking to aquire an OA forward and defenceman

 

[Texcanuck]

Maksimovich to Ottawa - they won’t be looking to us for an OA forward...

will Sting make any deals? seems like the needs have been filled by most teams... I guess we are set already made three brilliant trades. I think tomorrow is the final day to ship OAs and Thursday noon for trades...

You are correct on the deadlines. Bottom line is we don’t have any real studly high end WJC-type talent on this team. I’ve guessed for a month that Eliot to Ottawa was a possible move, and 67s have a boatload of picks from Konecny trade and others. They are still short one OA and IMO, it should be a defense man with the ability to QB the power play. That could be our 22, but I don’t know what other options are out there among the “sellers”. Time will tell.

Ottawa should help a brother out & return some of those picks back to us.

Nope I was just referring to Eliot as a defenceman... Maksimovich to Ottawa was pretty much a done deal a few days ago

Hearing just picks. Shouldn't be long..

Not sure why the return would be nice. Ruzicka hasnt played that great,was silent in the WJC and Eliot has struggled of late.Guess it depends on your definition of nice.Doubt Eliot is involved.Hopefully it is a fair return,lots of trades in the OHL and I am sure the buyers are close to done.Went to London and Guelph game last night,with the Guelph trade picks overnight and if the team comes together,WOW they r going to be tough.Really interested what London does now.Love the trade deadline time

 

[member 236327]

Done... Ruzicka to Sudbury, announcement coming shortly

Well Eliot is top 8 in defence scoring, he’s strong defensively and can be physical, makes mistakes ya a few , do other junior players make mistake yep about 99 percent of them... Eliot should fetch almost as much salinitri did. And who cares what a player does in the WJC that’s not the OHL different style of play and higher competition. Look what ruzicka did last year and he’s a point per game this year without kyrou. The package of them together should bring back a decent return.
