Sam Bitten signs with Sodertalje SK in HockeyAllsvenskan which is the second tier Swedish pro league. The Sting are now down to two overagers.
Agreed it will be weird watching them in April but I'm excited that they're coming back. Since we're seemingly going to have a season I'd love to see everybody's roster prediction for this season.Well I'll be damned we may have a season. I'm nowhere near as excited as usual but it'll be fun to see the boys playing again.
Unfortunately Hjorth & Bitten signed in Sweden & won't be back.
Yah & i personally wouldn't want the Sting to trade much. Like if it is for a solid OA & it costs a 4th, fine. But I'm not into trading 2nds/3rds/Voit/Dann etc.I would imagine trades would be out of the question for this season. Not only for covid reasons but there's no point selling the farm during a 24 game season, especially for an OA. No doubt that a HUGE asterisk will be beside the winning team.

As for lines mine would be:
Guy-Rees-Roth
Voit-Geci-Perreault
Dann-Namestnikov-O'Donnell
Hill-Filak-DeGurse
Burke, McIntyre extras.
Reesor-Nolet
Stratis-Supryka
Mast-Dillingham
Nagra, Eveleigh extras.
Gaudreau
Thornton
Langevin
After a year of talking about Covid, politics and if there would be a season I'm curious what people think next season's team will look like for us. I would assume all teams will be mostly in the same boat with 05, 04 and even 03 players that have never played at this level at all. Any thoughts who is back and what things might look like?
Guy(OA)-Geci-Perreault
Voit-Namestnikov-O'Donnell
Dann-Hill-Burke
McIntyre-Filak-?
Reesor(OA)-Supryka(OA)
Mast-Dillingham
Nagra-Eveleigh
Gaudreau
Thornton
Rees, Roth, Stratis, Jakovljevic, Bitten graduate. Langevin/Nolet traded as too many OAs. DeGurse let go
Very, very young team. But I think a bunch of teams will be like that
Perreault has 13 points in 20 games for San Diego, if he stays in the AHL the trade option may not exist.Open import spot, possible top 6 forward could be inserted into the line up. I might look at trading Perreault for a stock pile of picks with such a young team. I agree a lot of teams will be looking awfully young, but i don't see the above line up being any sort of contender.

Yes, and when the OHL cancelled the season, several things changed. I'd be surprised if the Sting or any of the teams with players who have had some success in the AHL dug in their heels to hard to challenge them staying.The second the OHL is playing again (next September) then he'll only be able to play in the NHL or the OHL. So he'll be back
He was only allowed to play in the AHL this year because the OHL didn't play
