watching in practises i'd be shocked if kennedy doesn't make the team as a 16, the kid doesn't seem to have any faults...on the one on one's he's as good as any.....gonna be some tough choices......Quote:

This weekend should go along way to finalizing the roster and then a week to sort it out with trades perhaps before the opener.
I see about 16 WHL capable forwards and 10 WHL capable defenceman within this organization.
Not many spots for dmen. Are we really losing much in replacing Spencer with any sixteen yr old dmen remaining. We would be gaining a possibility of eight to ten combined seasons and adding size. I like an older team but would rather with a 20yr old Jeff May type. I say keep two of these sixteen yr olds. Make room.Quote:

Two sixteen yr olds
not saying that he isn't good enough to play in this league just that he would benefit from another year back down, kennedy on the other hand seems to be a whl ready dman...imo......Quote:

I'm not saying that Lenchyshyn not making the roster isn't warranted but what is he going to learn in a third year of midget that he failed to learn in his first two years?Quote:

I thought he wasn't going to be top six on the blueline but could work with the coaches and really improve that way. Who could improve his game more? Berehowsky and Lukowich or his midget coach for a third year? I'm disappointed.
I liked his aggression level and thought the Canes could really benefit from his nasty attitude.
Goberis showed well and probably makes this team next year. He really grew this past year and looked far more 'WHL'.
Heard he is going to play Junior A in MB, I believe that is what was on the news last night.Quote:
