So if a first rounder is not involved you make this deal? We drafted a guy in the first round last year that didnt even report. Roy didn't report either a first round pick here really doesn't matter much when they draft guys that say no. When they draft guys that say no before the draft and they still draft them.

Dumont wasn't clear on the process , so he did it again this year with O'Leary .

Played 7 games in the Q, his twitter pic is him and a cougar in an eagles jersey. Could be his mom though. But long story short nothing for this team

He doesn't know that no means no? Lol. Yes the Roy deal worked out but if anything that got lucky with that one. Keep in mind he likely could of sat a year and have been drafted again or signed with a different team. ( I'm not exactly sure on the protocal of guys not reporting)

Cape Breton's 3 1sts are currently in the top 10. I can't even fathom trading one of those in a deal to acquire an under achieving 18y/o and a 20. If we're using him for a backup, maybe save the piok for a high end prospect.

( I'm not exactly sure on the protocal of guys not reporting) ya and your assumption is way off lol I don't know who CB passed on for O'Leary that was a world beater at 14 lol it was worth the risk. Top 10 player and worst case scenario you get a first this year. Low risk high reward.

If he has no intention to play in the league you get nothing for him. The league will give them a pick (19th) I do believe and that's that.

Drafting him was worth the risk. If he reported it would have been a huge bonus and would have been a bit more likely considering how CB is so close to Hfx plus the excitement about the talent the team had back in the summer.
Or ... there was the possibility he would report to HFX in which he could have been used to get a player we wanted from them.
I had no problem in drafting him.

Could always try to get Brassard and Gadoury or Hardie from Halifax for your Brassard plus. If any team takes him off our hands I'll be floored. Dumont must have the management brainwashed like super Mario did. I do not think it takes much to "brainwash" the ownership group...

I agree with your points there, They may also try to talk to him over the Christmas break and see if he is home sick. Cb is much closer to Halifax then conneticut, But my point basically was that they don't always do good drafting in the first round so trading a first rounder likely wouldn't do much harm depending on the return

His first round picks were: Roy - Taken for the compensation Bell - Playing for CB as an offensive D Dubois - highest scoring 16 year old in the Q atm O'Leary - Low risk high reward gamble Only one you might argue is taking Bell over Sprong but it's not like they took J-S Deslaurier over Sprong lol Bell is a quality offensive D in this league.

Victoriaville dropped Francois Treamblay. Could we possibly pick him up?
