I think you will see them all stay until Christmas and with Biduke hurt, Sill hurt, and Lahey and Eagles prone to injury, they can keep them all till Christmas and play the ones most ready to show up. After Christmas what would happen would be whatever is best for the Wildcats at that time. Isn't there some sort of deadline for the 20 year old. November 10th or something?

Eagles could get traded to Riki for something good next year.
Eagles fits in well with the High Flying Rimouski team.
I would not be surprised at all.... my 3 cents.

The way the Cats are playing and with the picks/kids they have already, I can't see trading one of the top players on the team just to add another high pick or young player. I know it would be nice to add Cormier for next year, but it would be even nicer to cause an upset and get to the Memorial Cup.

Things to look at:
1. 7 and 0 and we just beat one of the top teams in the league.
2. 4 overagers that are all good
3. Only 1 European on the team. The other is assigned to the AHL
4. Trading deadling is closed except for 20 year olds and Europeans.
5. A lot of draft picks for 2009 and 2010
Time for a trade for a European star. Lets face it. We're 99.9% chance of NOT getting Voinov.
The only players that can be traded right now are 20 year olds, Euros and draft picks.
It makes sense to package Biduke/Lahey with some draft picks and aquire the European star.
Who? No idea. Obviously we aren't getting anyone from Rimouski, Shawingigan or Saint John but there may be some offensive star somewheres.

If he is that good, he would not be here any longer. There isn't 1 Euro I would consider right now and there is no pressure for us to make a deal right now.

If the team that has a European star is a contender they will not trade him for a 20 YO. If they are not a contender, they will not be interested in 20 YO's in exchange more young players (i.e. Bissonnette).

Of course a team that IS contending would not trade their Euro.
I'm talking about the none contending teams. As if they wouldn't accept a 20 year old, some high draft picks for them to rebuild with.
As good as our record is, we still don't have the pure offensive skill that is required to win a championship

After Christmas what would happen would be whatever is best for the Wildcats at that time. They can't, there is a November 10th deadline after which you can only carry 3 20 year olds, also, I doubt 20 year olds want to sit in the press box for half the games.

First of all there are very few star Euros in the Q, Maybe Stefanovich Second he(or any other) might not be available THird, such a player would cost a ton

Yes we are going through our best start ever. But we are far from having a Memorial Cup Team. Compare what we have now to the team we had the year we hosted. Yes we have a very promising team that is young and with some additions could be a contender the next two/three seasons. Lets not ruin that with silly expectations.

As good as our record is, we still don't have the pure offensive skill that is required to win a championship Why do you think we need to add a Euro star ? Just because we have an opening ? I'd rather let a guy like Bissonnette get more ice time than waste assets on a Euro in a trade. The smart approach for this team is to stay the course to contend next year. If we get there a year early with the players we have now ... great. You seem to think there is a rule that says we have to have 2 Euros ...

Couldn t put it any better Steve!Give the ice time to our young talent we presently have.This thing of having 2 impact Euros in a second year rebuilding team makes no sense.With all the picks we have next year we sure could get one that has already experience in the Q if need be! Hell the talent we already own sure could do fine for next few years IMO!
