So I think Bowler has his roster set with signed/returning players after this deal. I would imagine Jodoin to LaSalle, Incze moved/released would leave 13Fs/7D/2G with 3 OAs and 2 Imports. I don't know if anyone has any expectations of anyone really getting a shot coming out of camp, we'll see but if not this deal brings him to a full roster, with a couple of spares and a D call up already signed. Outside of Maggio and Afanasyev being added along with a couple of rookies signed, Frasca out we have pretty much the same roster we had last year.

A few tweets vis OHL insiders this Am
A couple former Windsor Spitfires personnel have landed roles with other #OHL teams.
Matt Moran - Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds
Brian Teakle - Owen Sound Attack
Bowler making room for his own staff, as he has a right to do.
Further to this, sounds as though Dan Currie has also found a new home with the Oshawa Generals.
Nice to see these guys land after the last few months.

No issue with wanting to make some changes within the operations/scouting areas. The question is beyond Sykes will anyone else be brought in to replace them?
