I believe whether we sell or buy, the next 2 years, maybe 3, are going to be a struggle. Obviously we dont have a Frost, Hayton, or Katchouk, among the young guys...yet. I've been a season ticket holder for many years, and I've sat through some bad seasons. But the chance to go deep in the playoffs trumps all for me. So it's hard for me to say do a major sell. How would you feel as a kid on a 1st place team to have management say you aren't good enough, so we're gonna blow this thing up?! The other problem I see is a lack of "for sure" buyers. There's several teams that seem to be in the same boat as us. And the Dipietro deal showed us that not all of the big buyers are parting ways with their young future stars. If we cant get any of those in a deal, then the rebuild gets pushed back farther. Personally, I dont think Hayton will make the nhl next year. I've loved his game from day 1, but look at how many 19 year olds get sent back every year. Plus with the expansion draft coming up they may want to keep him down another year. So if we are weighing percentages, let's say there's a 75% to 80% chance he'll be back to restock the cupboards. And there's a slim chance Villalta could get sent back. Goalies take time. So I say go after a Yantsis from kitchener. Never been a prolific scorer but a lot better this year. He's big (6-3 210) and plays the right wing. Then if Sandin for sure isnt coming back, or there's no unannounced plans for the other Czech we drafted to report after world juniors, I say go after Lufegnivus (forgive the spelling) from Sarnia. Another big (6-3 224) left wing that's scoring at a good rate this year. Both teams are most likely selling so maybe they come a little cheaper?? Yantsis because he's never been a big scorer, and Lufegnivus because he's an import and most teams dont have a spot. Size and scoring down the wings to go along with Hayton and Frost down the middle. Imagine a line of Frost, Lufegnivus, and Howdeshell?!! I just have a hard time selling a 1st place team especially when the whole league is down overall. If we do sell, I'd say Frost, and either one of or Sambrook or Hollowell, will be the ones to go. But who knows, they could sell off everyone lol! Wont be surprised either way!
