Still confused, but thanks for the explanation. Sorry Jack. Trying to be a good poster, but maybe it just isn't for everybody. I've been overly trying to not say anything to piss people off but it isn't working obviously. Posting isn't for everybody I guess. Thank you to all for giving me a chance to take part. There are a lot of good people here doing good things in the way of supporting their teams and it makes for a good read most of the time. I'll just stick to reading from now on though. The discussions seem to be over my head and don't want to make a fool of myself. Cheers everybody. You're doing a good job. You can't learn without asking questions. And yeah, some questions might seem dumb to others, but that's how you will educate yourself and better be able to form opinions over time. Don't worry about pissing people off. Post your questions and opinions and over time through reading and posting you'll come to conclusions and develop ideas no different then the rest of us posting for years and years here.

I could see maybe next year, in terms of major trades, but not this year. I don't see SJ spending big for Pelletier and/or Spence. In terms of guys that could help SJ, I can see Stewart but he would not get you a huge return. He is a solid #4 or 5 D that would help stabilize their defense. DeJong is in a similar situation.

I think it was an obvious conclusion to come to once the Halifax trade broke down as it did with those 2 not being on the move. I just dont see it making sense now at the draft with the potential of no season.

Too risky to do it at the draft IMO.

Too risky to do it at the draft IMO. I'm not sure this is SJ's year to go all in. I can see them adding a few pieces without breaking the bank, maybe moving out guys that they can't give adequate ice time to. Can't see them paying two or three prime assets for a guy like Pelletier.

They have what it takes to contend in 2021, 2022 and 2023. 2022 will be their Mem Cup year but they won't have to make a bunch of trades. They're doing it how it should be done. Building through the draft. I can see Spence being a good fit in SJ, but Irving will not allow Pelletier to be dealt there. I believe it was Raimu who said Val d'Or could use Pelletier. I wholeheartedly agree. They have a boatload of picks.

They would be a young contender next year, they would be smarter to add strong veteran leadership and go for it more agressively the following year. 2021-22 will be their peak year.

How do you manage to post so much in off topic stuff yet seem to ignore the Q news talked about for weeks or months on actually hockey boards?

I just dont see it making sense now at the draft with the potential of no season. I agree ... but if a deal was already worked out and signed off on by the GMs, tough to back out now. Say for example that the Moncton-Halifax deals hinged on Saint John paying big for Pelletier and/or Spence, and Thibeau got Georgie to put his commitment in writing. I don't see how Georgie would be able to back out now. He could try, but then we might see a challenge on the rule that you can't sue another Q team ... lol. Just speculating ... I know nothing more than you do on this.

There is a rumor out of Halifax that they are getting 3 young players, one is rumored Drover for Gravel(part of a bigger deal) and the other two are Desnoyers and L'heureux with 4 picks going to Moncton(2022 1st, 2020 2nd 2022 2nd and 3rd 2022).
The Cats are rumored to be flipping the two 2nds(2020 and 2022) to BC to get their two 3rd and two 4ths back.
