Looking at the makeup of the team, I would guess that it is a 20, and given that the forward market may not exist, that would leave either Ellis or a D like one of Boudrias, Bergeron, Arsenault Out of those names the only one that makes any sense right now would be Boudrias. Ellis has a contract and won’t be cheap even though they have Jones They would keep Ellis over him unless it’s a good offer. That is if he’s back. Also Bergeron is IMO the best 20yo in the league. He will not be cheap so unless you expect SJ to pay big for him, it won’t be him. Arsenault I think will stay because they only have 4 guys and he’s the best of the rest. Maybe a 20yo defencemen from CB. They have a bunch and they all could be good fits in SJ. I know there’s a rumour out there that one of Larose or McCormick is heading somewhere to finish a trade. Larose can’t go to SJ but one of Baker, Halvena or McCormick would be a good fit with SJ. If I was a betting man I’d say Halvena might be the odd man out and wouldn’t be to expensive. He’s the odd man out and he would bring leadership and grit. Him and Inniss would be a pretty rough pairing. Nope! You can check that again. And I agree Bergeron to be the best Dman in the league. This would look pretty amazing. Although I don't have any info (apart from Inniss), a few Dmen coming back would be fine  Bergeron - Villeneuve Poirier - Inniss |

We see more signs now that indicates he will play in the Q next year. It is now a possibility. |

Id love Ellis, but as good as a job the dogs have done getting guys to commit I’m sure savoie/pateneude advisors wont be to happy if Ellis comes. Savoie was an NCAA kid pretty high regarded and has played midget AAA the last 2 years with a cup of tea in both jr.A and Q didn’t fair to well in either. I would assume with having savoie committed to us we made a deal with education involved. So I believe it’ll be a pateneude savoie duo this season and next ( unless all hell breaks loose and they can’t stop a beach ball) |

If things aren't going well, then a decision can be made to acquire a goalie during the mid-year trade period, assuming there's still be one in a shortened season. In my opinion, the last position we should be worrying about using an OA spot on would be the goalie. |

Your also right on he might not get signed because they have a few goalies under contract too. Doesn’t look like there’s any room for him there. I think he would get redrafted though. If he’s back you have to think he would draw a bit of a bidding war though. I’m not saying he’s be super expensive but I could see maybe Charlottetown being interested and maybe Quebec too. |

Probably because we all thought so Although I did have a hunch he might come back sometimes before Xmas (he missed 2.5 month before it all came to a stop) the thought just clicked back in my mind with the pandemic. That sais, I've always had SNB in mind as a destination for Ellis. Appart from that, I don't have any other info. CHA could be good. |

Charlottetown can be the 2nd best team in the conference next year. This conference is going to be weak and I think SJ can be number 1 if goaltending is good. I’m not as sold as some are. Charlottetown I think needs a veteran goalie Because goobie isn’t ready to be the guy. And Ellis or Gravel could be a good fit for both teams. |

I think Ellis is coming here patenaud has looked good in some games but very bad in others I just don't think he's ready to be a starter. we are one of the team's to beat next year and Ellis will be top 3 goalie. if it only cost a 2nd then go for it.

Bergeron was just a thought. Ellis, I don't know either. But since having that hunch about him playing as OA, I always had SNB in mind. Right, doesn't mean nothing to have a good feeling. But Inniss is real. |

I'm hearing and reading elsewhere that some are saying the 2nd player is Reynolds. If that is the case, would there be any need to wait for the draft to make the announcement? I believe it's only trades that need to wait for the draft to be announced.
That's not to say Reynolds can't still be on his way but I don't believe that is the 2nd player Georgie was referring to. Or am I wrong and FAs and signings of drafted players need to wait too? Normally leagues wouldn't be into their offseasons yet so these types of announcements would not typically be happening in April anyway.

We are always allowed to announce a player whose rights we own signing (we wouldn't normally until the player's season had ended). He was talking about trades in general when he said two additions. |

It certainly would be nice if we get Innis and a 2nd player via trade and Reynolds commitment to report. |

I’d love for the dogs to be able to land Shawn element if we could get him and innis and who ever our 16 yr old at the draft and possibly peter Reynolds. that would be my perfect scenario off-season .

I’m not saying there’s no way but it all depends on what you expect to pay. Element IMO would be the top forward 20yo. CB is not just going to hand him over. He won’t be cheap and they could find cheap 20s that are effective and then buy better at trade deadline if needed. |
