Maybe this Team has.............2 runs in it ? This. I see no reason why we can't improve this year and still go all in next season. There's more then enough assets to do it thanks to the proper rebuild that's been in place.

There's more then enough assets to do it thanks to the proper rebuild that's been in place. A Matt Murphy and Joey Ratelle maybe two good pick ups.. Oleary may be trade bait for halifax if he would report and a pick along with a prospect and a pic to Drummondville.

Wasn't Ratelle coming here ? Did we keep a pick instead ?

It would be nice for the CB Post to get an update on the O'LEary situation though. Don't we need to relinquish his rights by a certain date to get a 19th overall pick in 2015 or have we decided to keep his rights?

A trip to Russia couldn't convince him , so I would say that he is doing The College Thing . Unless he was manouvering his way to Halifax but I have heard nothing about his desire to be a Moosehead .

If there is anything we have learned about players not reporting and the compensation picks is that the player himself, in this case being O'Leary holds more value in this league then the 19th overall pick would. You saw it recently with Nicolas Roy. I think we hold on to his rights. Its not like we are starving for draft picks at the moment.

I thought that if we wanted the compensation pick we had to release him before next years draft.

Why would we need to add a 19 year old defenceman? We are pretty deep on defence, I think two 19 vyear old forwards would serve us better.

Adding a Murphy would be huge for the eagles. Again if oleary would commit to the mooseheads and take our first overall and we felt we have him for two years and two runs i would take that to the bank. I do see your point on adding 19 year old forwards but we are much deeper on forwards than D right now. What other 19 year old forwards would you like to see based on teams rebuilding?

If you guys are worried about not having good 20's for next year I will like to add that 20's will not cost as much as a 19 this year. The cost of a decent twenty is usually one early to mid round draft pick. However , the risk is greater though because that may be too late to get a star 20.
If going in a bit this year then it will make sense to get some 19's now though.
At this point I am good with going for either option.
If Darcy comes back then maybe keep Legare and swing a deal with Hfx for Fucale and Murphy?

He seems pretty set on playing NCAA ........maybe playing for his home town team "might" sway him .

I think for Halifax to make that deal they'd have to have a commitment from the kid beforehand, or at least you'd think.
That being said, something like Murphy for O'Leary and a 1st would be really nice at christmas, especially if O'Leary reported right away. Lets the kids play more minutes on the blue-line and possibly pushes Bent off the team haha.
