It's more about the posts by Score saying certain players wouldn't be traded because nobody wants them and they're a locker room cancer, in an effort to pump Horth's tires. All that while knowing nothing would be done about it because he's one of the admins. Were they traded? Some players are issues in the locker room. Welcome to sports where that stuff is always speculated on. What should be done about speculation? We can kill the forums and you can rely on twitter if only ingesting factual information is what you're about. But if not you need to accept that there's going to be speculation, true and not true, about players and their behaviour. If you have a better way of how to police a forum like this during the trade period we'd love to hear it. If you have proof someone Score said was a locked room issue is not...share it. Otherwise, the guy has some connections so who is to say he's not bang on about what he was saying? Score has been the biggest joke on this board for years , hence why I stopped posting for a while. Reynolds is who he posted about and us sea dogs and never heard 1 thing in all the seasons he was here. And he got traded over thr all mighty Horth case closed. Sorry not sorry. |

It directly violates forum guideline 9. I believe the posts were: Reynolds is poison in the room. You'll probably be keeping him.....as nobody wants his attitude. And when he remains a Sea Dog......ask yourself why |

You'll probably be keeping him.....as nobody wants his attitude. And when he remains a Sea Dog......ask yourself why His own opinion. What do you expect to happen in these scenario's? I've had people connected to teams or connected to players feed me similar info. Is the expectation here that unless fans can verify it nobody should post it? Is there no room for personal reporting of i'm hearing X, Y or Z? Just because you don't like whats being posted doesn't mean it's not true and also doesn't mean it is. Perhaps there are degrees of truth based on added context. If Score had hear Reynolds was poison and I post that I heard he wasn't it doesn't mean either of us are right necessarily. I just don't know what you expect. There's always going to be speculation on players and attitudes when you're following a league full of teenagers chasing a million dollar dream and/or a free education. We either make these boards only about reporting trades and signings or some of you have to accept that speculation...both accurate and completely baseless...is necessary and completely up to each poster in terms of who to believe or not. I know Score has enough scoops over the years that I see no issue with him saying a player is an issue even if everyone in that town disagrees because i'm confident he's taking that stance for good reason even if I don't necessarily agree or hear the same info. |

Where were the posts saying he was going to X team and people mocking the info as non-reliable? People saying they should trade Horth and people saying Horth is going to Rouyn and him ending up there are 2 completely different statements. Its laughable you guys are even still commenting like this. Are you so caught up in rumor lingo that you can't comprehend the difference between someone posting reliable info and someone speculating? It's more about the posts by Score saying certain players wouldn't be traded because nobody wants them and they're a locker room cancer, in an effort to pump Horth's tires. All that while knowing nothing would be done about it because he's one of the admins. This literally happens in every board, every year. This year it was the Sea Dogs and Titan fans spamming the CB and Halifax boards trying to convince forum board posters as if they were the GMs to go after Orr/Roelens/Mann/Tivey/Elie Etc. Opinions are like assholes unfortunately, everyone has one and most of them stink. It's just part of the posting in here, you overvalue the players you often see play while undervaluing the ones you only see 3-4 times on opposing teams. |

Idk what I expected in these situations, but I definitely expected you to stick up for Score, considering you're part of his little band of admins lol Either way, bashing a player (on-ice performance aside) regardless of how many "scoops" you've had in the past, is unacceptable and childish. Not that I expected anything less from Score... |

on a side note.
seen somewhere Cory MacGillivray from Gatineau was being claimed by us on waivers, haven't seen anything official anywhere so does anyone know if true? He's also no longer listed on Gatineau's roster
The Titan currently only have 6 D-men on the roster after Cosman was let go and Maddigan sent down. So adding a D would make sense unless Robichaud is here for the remainder of the year.

if there's some futures attached to the trades with Rouyn/BC/Victoriaville there's some interesting names however I'm not sure which fit the bill as BC and Rouyn are likely still competitive next year and most of Victoriaville's interesting names would be 19 next year (Gendron, Larose, Lavigne,) Unless we somehow bring in PO Roy as an OA D. But aside from Larose I wouldn't be sending any high picks back for the others to be honest.
Rouyn has a lot of possible options as well. If Sam Savoie returns next year after missing basically a whole season, and Verreault returns then the Huskies could have the best OA's in the league. Gill is rumored to be out for the season now too so if he returns those 3 are locks I'd say. Even if all 3 aren't back or a combination then Higgins, Fontaine, Carr, and Gaudet are all good options as well so I wouldn't be against any of them being sent to us (excluding Higgins of course). Carruthers and Perron could find a home somewhere too.
BC seems unlikely to have a future attached but they likely bring back Boilard, Gravel, and Gagnon/Arseneault as OA's, so finding a spot for Lessard, Lavoie, Paille makes sense. All of which would be decent OA's.
the other thing is the Titan only really seem to have 1 OA slot as it stands. Huggan and Fleming or Keller seems very likely. Andrews is the option for the 3rd but can be upgraded on.
in the end though if futures are involved I hope it's not for any of the 1sts, or IF the 1sts are involved it's really worth it.

Not sure it makes sense keeping Keller. He's a euro. Might make more sense to keep Fleming and draft another euro. You can even draft a 17 YO euro goalie. that's fair but the Titan seem to miss often enough in the euro draft that bringing back Keller might not be a bad idea and he could be one of the better goalies next season. His numbers aren't too bad this year so far. Mind you it's still possible Fleming is the guy and we draft 2 new guys in hopes they report. so going with a trio of Huggan, Andrews (?), and Fleming next year seems to be the most obvious. Titan likely gonna draft a goalie in the 2024 draft with one of their higher picks (I hope anyways). It's also possible some of the trades we made have futures so if we get an OA at the draft then Andrews is definitely the odd man out. Will be interesting to see what happens moving forward. One of the 1st round picks going back for an OA crossed my mind when I saw how much the team got in some trades. |

So I hope it's not sent for a OA that wouldn't really be worth a 1st. |
