None of us really know what’s going on unless we know the kid direct or manager. Lots of speculations but we won’t know anything until camp. I believe it’s mid August when kids show up so that should give us a clearer picture on the draft kids. When does the trade window open again?

Player signings generally only start after the import draft. For example, Beveridge signed Jul 21 of last year. It is possible that guys show up to camp without signing, but odds are pretty good that if Chartrand and/or Rozzi doesn't sign before camp, they aren't coming.

Ok thanks! Things will be clearer in the next month. This could be a long year for the team but if we are truly building for the future I believe we need to play the younger guys in tougher spots. Last year was a bad year and we ran most of the older players which did not help progress maybe of some of the younger guys. That’s just my opinion but also we did not really have a plan on what year we are trying to build around. If they are looking at the 2008 kids they should be trying to get the 2006 and 2007 kids in more situations so maybe they can be used by other teams who need depth for there playoff runs and we get some valuable 2008 Players

Having some veterans that we can expect a certain level of performance from is good, because it allows the kids to play in a lower pressure situation (while still having the chance to get quality minutes). That being said, it is possible that kids force their way up. No matter how you slice it, at most our top 3 D will be 2004/2005 (there still remains the possibility that Bilodeau gets moved if there is a good offer given the depth on D). Up front, SJ has Peddle who will be an 05, should absolutely acquire an 04, and will have Mateiko (05) if there is no deal to be had. After that, the whole offense is going to be run by younger guys. Miller (06) and Beveridge (07) are locks in the top 6 and should both take big leaps. Groulx should be capable of a lot more than what we saw last year, the 08s have some high end to their game, and there's a lot more to like.

If you have a pile of late round picks struggling but can get a free 19yr old on waivers or an overager for a 4th/5th the value in putting talent in front of those late round picks is in forcing them to earn that ice time. Its not as simple as play the 16/17yr old so they're ready at 18/19. They need to show potential and also need to be able to survive right now. Would anyone like to pay to watch for a team winning say 8-12 games because you overplayed every younger player? Those cheap vets play a big role in rebuilding years. It gets back on track with 1sts and 2nds to develop. You traded way too much for the Memorial Cup and are still paying for it in terrible teams. Nothing was going to change that. But not running with any key vets wasn't going to change it, either.

They can't have more than 4 2008 on their roster this season anyways.
Totally need good vets to help out the team this season. Also, last season we saw allot of instability with lines which in my opinion makes it hard for players to play at their best.
I wish we got some a day in the life on instagram/facebook updates from players. I always thought that these were good fans favorite.

What does SJ try and get if they trade Mateiko? What should they try and get for Tivey or Bilodeau? You have to Think 2 and possible all 3 will be traded by Christmas.

Mateiko is the big fish for SJ id say he is Moncton or CB bound. as for Tivey and Bilodeau they are complete question marks. i put my money on Bilodeau bouncing back but Tivey is a 20 i dont know the value is worth trading him if im SJ. Mateiko could fetch a 1st plus it really all depends on what the Gridin trade looks like if rumours are true that Gridin will report and be traded. Gridin will get far more than Mateiko the skill isnt even close between them. Bilodeau needs to bounce back in big ways hes 19 and has great potential to do so Hopefully SJ can bring in some help up front it will give there d an easrier time. Tivey is a stay imo he is 20 and teams only get 3, he isnt special enough to cut it as a 20 year old on a contender he has the size at 6'5 and other atributes for sure. I think he is just outplayed by other 20 year old d available Buteau and shultz come to mind in the same division.

I completely agree with you.I would keep Tivey and like you said not sure the return will be enough to let him go, I also think Bilodeau will have a good season but cannot be playing behind Ianniello again this year didn’t get lots of quality PP time and still manage to get 25 pts. Mateiko if not traded at camp will definitely move during Christmas probably same for Bilodeau if he gets a good 1st half. What does SJ try and get if they trade Mateiko? What should they try and get for Tivey or Bilodeau? You have to Think 2 and possible all 3 will be traded by Christmas. Mateiko is the big fish for SJ id say he is Moncton or CB bound. as for Tivey and Bilodeau they are complete question marks. i put my money on Bilodeau bouncing back but Tivey is a 20 i dont know the value is worth trading him if im SJ.

So if you keep Tivey what about the other 20yr olds? Do you try and upgrade one of them.
