With us finishing the tournament 2-1 and scoring 10gf and 11ga just wondering if they will cut the team down to 27-28 players or will they carry 34 players or how many ever they have until pre-season is over

Oil Kings GM Bob Green was on the Pipeline Show on the TEAM 1260 in Edmonton last Tuesday and said that he will be going with a 23-man roster; here is mine:

G - 1 Alex Archibald (OA)
G - 31 Dalyn Flette
F - N/A Robin Figren (Euro)
F - 9 Brent Raedeke
F - 11 Brandon Lockerby
F - 12 Shayne Neigum
F - 15 Brendan Dowd
F - 16 J.P. Szaszkiewicz - C
F - 17 Scott Skrudland
F - 18 Karey Peiper (OA)
F - 23 Craig McCallum
F - 25 Clayton Cumiskey
F - 27 Tomas Vincour (Euro)
F - 28 Brent Henke
F - 29 Brett Breitkreuz
D - 2 Karl Benke
D - 3 Lyon Messier (OA)
D - 4 Michael Hengen (OA) - A
D - 5 Tyler Hlookoff
D - 6 Bretton Stamler (OA) - A
D - 7 Cameron Cepek
D - 10 Henrik Tervonen
D - 20 Lance Redden

My 5 cuts that are left to be made are :
Send Back: F Rhett Rachinski, GK Chris Ward, D Drew Nichol, F Braeden Adamyk
Release : D Matt Swaby (OA)

From what I saw in the St.Albert Tournement and what I've read this looks like the roster. It is a toss up between Swaby and Messier for the final OA spot.. I went with the 5 OA's/2 Euro Rules.. I had 13 Forwards and 8 Defence but Green could easily go with 14 and 7.. Benke and Skrudland will be the Patrolman.. If 7 Defense Henrik Tervonen will be back in Midget. I'm Out.

[Brandonite]

Was Braden Adamyk sent back to Neepawa for sure and has Chris Ward also been cut?

[Crowley]

No not yet.. It they Kings got 5 more cuts to make before they get down to a 23 man roster which Green said he is going to have.. Obviously there are 28 remaining in camp at the moment.

You said that it was a toss up between Swbay and Messier. How has Swaby looked during the pre-season? I am a Tri-City season ticket holder and he was my favorite player.

Thanks in Advance,
