Windsor Spitfires 2018-19 Season Thread (Part 6)

[punch1943]

For what its worth, there's an article on AM800s site that says WR is done with major deals but a couple minor ones still possible.

What it’s worth is fek all. The Gospel truth is something that flows from GMs lips as often as it does from the mouth of the Donald. If WR sees an opportunity to improve the Spits he’d trade his own son...

 

[OHLTG]

I just meant that he's not done. Nothing more. Nothing less.

He has no big names left so any deal he does would be a minor deal.

I’d hope someone like Stevenson is moved up front and not someone who should be in our top 6 next year. Our D needs all the practise and game situations it can.

You mean Maddux is going to be traded!

Nice kid but he probably has a NTC

Hoping Incze gets the start tonight. Piiroinen can start tomorrow in Guelph. A little less pressure on Piiroinen if his next start is on the road.

Waiting for a shoe to drop here, if only something minor. Things are bad enough without a short bench....

Twitter: There is a rule stating that if a player is sent back to his Junior club in February, he can play EVEN IF THAT TEAM DOES NOT HAVE ANY REMAINING CARDS.
Gabe Vilardi is property of the #LAKings

So rumour London will grab Vilardi and he will be able to play regardless of cards.

 

[OHLTG]

Last I heard, Vilardi was returned to Kingston already so not sure how this would work?!

 

[hockeylegend11]

Though not confirmed yet I understand Spits have signed free agent overage forward Chase Campbell.

 

[SpItFiReZ]

That’s what I thought too. Never heard of this rule though. Regardless, I hope we still get our picks once Vilardi is officially sent back if he hasn’t been.

 

[Sec108]

Just being sent back as in Vilardi.....does that mean Spits get those 2 conditional picks??

 

[OHLTG]

Though not confirmed yet I understand Spits have signed free agent overage forward Chase Campbell.

I can second this.

Though not confirmed yet I understand Spits have signed free agent overage forward Chase Campbell.

I would assume that since it isn't official yet, he won't be in the lineup tonight.

 

[OHLTG]

Correct.

 

[OHLTG]

10F and 7D tonight. Piiroinen starts.

 

[DetSpitsFan]

Watching the game at home, announcers mentioned Spitfires made a minor move. Assume this is in regards to Campbell. I’ll take it, we need the bodies!

 

[member 71782]

Adding Campbell is a free, warm body to add to a line up that doesn't have enough depth to put twelve forwards on the ice at this point.

While needed I don't have high expectations. He was just waived, all teams in all three leagues passed on him so Kitchener released him to make room for their youngsters to get icetime. If he can fill some minutes, play a steady role while Windsor's kids keep seeing more icetime there's nothing wrong with the addition. At the same time not having warm bodies within to provide needed depth speaks for itself.

I'm sure we see at least one more addition, maybe two if anyone else is moved. Need to be able to ice a full team every night.

They did mention it was Chase Campbell later in the conversation and said it would be announced in the morning and he would join them for the weekend. He has not been a scorer throughout his career.

2 years ago he had 16 goals
A real solid, gritty defensive type guy that will help.

 

[OHLTG]

He had really good offensive numbers in minor midget, too.

 

[FireBall959]

Please it doesn't matter what he did in MM. He is a free agent overager that cleared waivers, nuff said.

 

[OHLTG]

Well, at least we're not writing him off too fast hahaha

5-4 Windsor final OT. Cuylle hat trick. D'Amico OT winner.

 

[OHLTG]

There was a group bus in tonight from Germany. They were touring the Great Lakes area for games - Chicago, Detroit, Windsor, etc. Very loud and fun folks. Great European jerseys, too.
