Than why would Lewiston make the trade? to get a cameron or a lessard who can play for them the rest of this season and next. i wish we could dress 4 20's next season, but you know, league rules..... How does that deal help Lewiston 3 years from now?? If you are getting Gratchev they sure as hell arent getting 2 19 year olds.

i've said it before and i'll say it again: cameron or lessard and our 1st to Lewiston for Gratchev and their 1st. unlikely both cameron and lessard will be back next season, plus lewiston's 1st should be top 5 unless they get going on a long winning streak soon. Giving up the team's best player to receive a poorer draft pick and 2 19s? This deal is ridiculously one-sided for the Wildcats. I know a lot of people in Lewiston already think Ed Harding should be fired. I'm not in that camp, but I'll lead their ranks if he signs off on a deal like this!

While your at it, you should trade Gormley to Halifax for Travis Randell...seems fair to me...

You have 4 20's in your second scenario... And youre overpaying for Gratchev.... Just trying to get the ball rolling.What do you think would be fair for Gratchev?What do you think his numbers would be in our lineup?Is he defensively responsible enough to play for Flynn? Like I said-I prefer the 1st scenario anyways. Do you believe that it's 50/50 for Voinov reporting to the Cats after Christmas like it said in the paper?

He would be an OK fit for you guys, but he would be a 2nd teir 20 year old to add, there would be better guys out there.... Price for Gratchev...1 good young prospect and a 2nd rd pick....

People are forgetting we're missing Famin....who brings a lot of what Gratchev brings, it looks like. I liked what I saw from him Friday night, but I'm not sold on dealing too much to acquire him.
I would rather upgrade to a 20 year old D (if Voynov doesn't show).

if voynov should could should of or maybe be here , same story with the Special #2 center that we were waiting on in 2006 season that never came . not here go forward and if get Bonus , do the club has you think is best and can has far at it can , Gratchev with be uge upgrad from lahi , and bourdon would be too expensive in my oppinion . Paris, Drew would be a good fit ,Cusack, Patrick,Tulupov, Kirill,Rioux, Sébastien

That makes no sense from a WC perspective, you're giving up your 1st rounder plus a player with possibly 1 1/2 years left(who doesn't take a 20 year old slot, so you also lose Lahey) for a guy that's 15-20% better. The difference from Gratchev to Lessard or Cameron is not that great(5 points over a season). If all 4 19 year olds(Rio cameron lessard Brannon) are back, that's a pleasant problem to have, you have a very good asset to trade.

Does anyone think Boyle will be traded, Not unless Voynov shows. Maybe at the draft if Rio and Cameron don't sign pro deals.

Here's one folks.... To Moncton: Maxime Macenauer Jarred Struthers To R-N: Ted Stephens Matt Boyle 3rd round pick (2009) I think it would probably cost us more than that. We probably value Stephens more than most, since we can see his progression from last season. Other teams may see a decent 18 yo with some upside. Boyle is a borderline 20 yo next season, although he would be a good fit if they trade Bourdon, etc.. this season. Of course, then we'd have to make another deal to land a replacement for Boyle, since Bell is not going to be on your 3rd pairing on a championship club.

Boyle is marginal, he wouldnt be an upgrade on any of Rouyn-Noranda's 20's next year and Ted Stephens is good, but not to base a deal around.

That's probably closer to the true cost, although I wouldn't pull the trigger, since I'm a MacAusland fanboy. ;D
