Watching last nights game from near the blueline at ice level (moncton end for two periods) it looks like after the 1st intermission Rouyn made some adjustments and picked off quite a few moncton break out attempts and also in the third period. It was like moncton was playing a set break out and the husky's keep picking them off, they also hemmed in moncton a lot during stretches of the game. The shots were 34 to 16 for the huskies 2nd and 3rd period combined, Moncton is lucky that Steinman was playing great or the huskies would have spoiled the night.
I am not blaming the players but something will need to change if this team is to make some noise in the playoff's.
Moncton is fast and I know they are a young team, the huskies are also fast and bigger and it looked like Rousseau had a bad night and would have liked to have a few goals back

anyone think Moncton would consider trading for Luneau's rights ? would would be reasonable offer's ,if we want to get by Halifax we need a sniper (like Doucet) or star D-man (Luneau ) is he that good ? what doers he bring besides point's ? is he good in both ends of the ice? Thoughts

Thoughts No, I’d say there’s a 5% chance they spend assets on someone who won’t be here for the year they are targeting |

Angus booth or tourigny would two other options. With the Memorial Cup host only being announced in January it seems unlikely to me they'd move either of these guys, but they seem to be in no mans land right now with their directon. Booth would fit in nicely from a play style perspective, or if they Cats just want to go all in on offense Tourigny would be wild. Off topic - SHA have a good stockpile of picks, but I have a really hard time looking at Shawinigans roster knowing the Cats were premptively booted as putting in a bid. An incredibly mediocre group of forwards, and a top 3 D who all have regressed offensively from last season. Rimouski's roster has abit more promise, but still nowhere near the quality of Moncton whos returning potentially their top 9 forwards. The Cats hit all the criteria of a perfect memorial cup host, and we're either going to get a a tournament hosted in an ancient building which recently had asbestos & ice issues , or in a nice rink from a team that hosted 10 years ago and unless drastic changes are made, could be an early playoff boot in 2025. |

Pretty sure Ceccheni will be making the annoucement in december, before the trade period. |

I said when it was announced that Moncton was pulling out, and will keep saying it, but Moncton not getting the Memorial Cup solely because they aren’t in Quebec is the dumbest decision. Like you said, Moncton is the superior host on paper in most, if not all ways, including being the better team (returning the majority of difference makers next year) and better / newer facilities. Both Rimouski and Shawinigan hosted it more recently too. |

Both Rimouski and Shawinigan hosted it more recently too. Generally when politics is the only reason for a decision....logic and common sense are ignored and dumb decisions are made. I find it ridiculous that Moncton would be excluded because of other recent Maritime hosts. Penalizing a city after building a brand new rink because someone down the road did something 3 years ago is just mind numbingly dumb logic that has no basis in common sense. A Quebec based team getting it because they're in the province of Quebec and not being as deserving as others just creates more divide. It doesnt make anything fair. |
