Gauthier doesn't seem to be the calibre of player you trade futures for - have you heard something specific to suggest futures may be involved in this one, or are you just speculating? Just speculation based on it being a 2024 pick. Fair point - I missed that ... perhaps a case where the Volts will acquire an OA from the Phoenix at the draft. As of this moment the Volts only have 2 19 year olds on their roster, while the Phoenix show 6.

Just speculation based on it being a 2024 pick. 2024 picks are pretty useful for Drummondville because that's going to be around the time they are pushing to go all-in It's hard to really criticize the Wildcats moves so far just based on just... asset management. I mean this team is overperforming, which has undoubtedly given guys a lot of confidence, increased the value of guys who probably wouldn't be worth much down the road. In a vacuum it's bad asset management to burn all these later picks in a year you're not contending to pick up overagers, but I don't necessarily think you can look at all these moves in a vacuum.

Would be nice if they could get a 1st round pick for him. Wonder if Ottawa signs off on it or if it's a conditional trade like Fortier...

Would be a free asset at this point ... wasn't playing for us and we weren't expecting him back. It is but I can't see the WC doing the SD any favors. Even if Ottawa would only release him there, I would think he gets back a 1st minimum, maybe a bit more, hope it's not futures.

Blagden and Couture also involved..
Blagden had his best game of the season in SJ in the last game before the extended break.

Mikaël Lalancette @miklalancette · 3m Ok, les Sea Dogs sont très sérieux. Philippe Daoust n'est pas seul. Thomas Couture et Nicholas Blagden des Wildcats l'accompagnent pour Saint-Jean. #lesoleil

Most. Boring. Trade. Deadline. Ever. Ok it got exciting late... Mikaël Lalancette @miklalancette · 3m La transaction est majeure. Plus de dix éléments impliqués dont plusieurs choix de repêchage. Un jeune espoir fait le chemin inverse. #lesoleil

Getting a mid round pick back for Blagden would be considered a success, he was more or less a throw in who needed a change of scenery when acquired from BBA. He's spent most of his time in the penalty box or suspended this season. If he plays the way he did that last game I could see why a playoff team might want him for the 4th line, if he plays the way he did before then he can be a liability.
