We probably won't know for a few years, I bet the 2015 and 2016(if not the 2017 also) 1st rounders will be traded this season...

You think they will go for another ill-advised "run" this year? Shaping up that way ... though it may be premature to determine whether or not it is ill advised. Wait and see how the team comes together and how many holes we need to plug come Xmas.

Not sure why everyone thinks they're going to go on an "all in" run. OK wait, Robert Irving still owns the team so yes I do, but...
Shannon has continuously stated the plan is to ice a strong team every season and avoid the peaks and valleys. The roster is shaping up to be a good mix of younger and older players so until he shows otherwise I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.

I know you probably didn't mean me specifically but for the record I wasn't saying Moncton would be doing so...just wondering if Billy (and others I guess) thought they would do so. If they trade away their 1st rounders for the next 3 years as was mentioned as a possibility in Billy's post, I'd consider that "all in". A team doesnt do that in hopes of finishing 7th overall in the league lol.

not every year that you have Barbashev and Tkachev.
Dubeau won't be here next year. Lalonde is a very good OA.
This season, we need a forward who can play on the top 2 lines. Not sure if Liam Murphy will be 100% at the end of the season after a long schedule and travelling. Askew is just 17. Only 14 pts last season.
Maybe not Jeremy Gregoire, but Yan Pavel Laplante could help us.

Loads up this year and makes it to the Memorial Cup and wins the thing in Quebec, paying them back for doing so when you guys hosted. That would be epic.

Maybe not Jeremy Gregoire, but Yan Pavel Laplante could help us. If they want to really contend for a league title, they'll need at least... 2 top 6 forwards with size. Expecting a 16 year old from prep school to play top 6 on a contender is a pretty big reach. Probably a 1st line winger and #2 center. 2 top pair d-men, most of the current crop are #3-4-5's at best, none is a legit #1 or #2 guy right now.

A team doesnt do that in hopes of finishing 7th overall in the league lol. No I didn't mean you at all actually. Also what I meant is that I don't think they'll be going "all in" and trading away 1st round picks for the next three years. I'm just basing that on what Shannon has been saying for the past six months or so. You mention the whole revenge on Quebec thing in another post...it's certainly crossed my mind...so I wouldn't necessarily be shocked if they did something rash, but I don't think they will. Could be wishful thinking on my part though. Mind you winning in Quebec would be pretty sweet...

I'd have to strongly disagree with that. Id think he's in the top 15 defenseman in the league this year and maybe top 10.

I think you need to wait and see what happens the first 30 games or so of the season ... Did many people have Gazzola or Gelinas pegged as #1 d-men entering last season? You never know who is going to make a big leap. I have no problem with them aspiring to build a contender - as long as they are willing to be smart come Xmas and reverse course if it isn't there - and not blindly charge ahead ...
