Sudbury has 7 1992's currently on their roster. Barring any NHL lock-out, two will draduate to AHL/NHL next year (Sgarbossa and Mattson). The remaining 5 will certainly be discussed to see who will stay and who will go. Not sure if they will keep 4 until tradeline in January or just go with 3 right from the start.
Spits should have a couple to deal. Czinder is most definitely available and depending on what happens with certain defensemen report to Windsor (Seiloff), Braithwaite will be available as well.
Ferry,Hughes and Houser will likely be London's OA's next season...unless one of Namestnikov or Knight come back(which I doubt). Every other '92 I see moving on to the A at least.
Well...A long list to be sure, but not all are real candidates. To start, Pearson is sure to be taken in this years draft and it is highly unlikely the NHL team will send him back to the OHL. He is safe money to be gone.
Telegin (WPG), Sutch (BUF) and McNeill (PIT) are drafted players and are likely to be AHL bound if signed. Telegin (and Niederberger) are also imports and it is not often these players are kept as OA's. Niederberger is a better bet to be back, but it would depend on who the Colts take in this year's import draft.
That really leaves Beyers, Buonomo, Hartwick and O'Connor, with possibly Niederberger.
What is a typical price for a solid OA such as Findlay? The Petes will need an OA Centre for the second line and an OA RW for the first line. I think Beyers and Findlay could be those 2. Could Findlay be had for a 2nd?

If you listen to the talk, one of the 2nd's from the Campbell deal will be flipped back to SSM for their choice of OA's and Spits are interested in Findlay. Not sure where he's fit though.
We do have your RW though...how about Czinder for Morrison straight up?

If Erie does not go with a goalie in the import draft it is a necessity that they get an OA goalie. I think Erie could benefit for a OA right wing or d-man.
Is Dodero on the trade block from Sudbury? I think he would fit in well on the blueline. A good winger would be Schoenmakers, or Beyers.

I respectfully disagree. I think there is a reasonable chance Pearson will be back. I think it's likely he'll go in the 2nd round or later especially given his injury.
Niderberger will be back in the OHL, though maybe not with te Colts. Telegin would absolutely be kept as an OA (he may be the best player in the OHL since the new year) but he'll surely be in St. John's.
I expect te Colts will have to choose three of Beyers, Buonomo, Hartwick, Niederberger, O'Connor and Pearson. I expect it will be Beyers, Buonomo, O'Connor and Pearson until the deadline, at which point they would reassess.
Whats Czinder like? Only thing I know is he has really bad hair. Is he a true first line RW?
1st line... no.
2nd line... maybe
3rd line... just right!
Czinder-ella (as my brother likes to call him) is a gentle giant. He has quite a long fuse but will fight back if he has to. Sometimes he'll be dominate and no one can touch him down low. Other times he just falls down.
He has a good work ethic though and has improved over his 2 years in the league thus far. Should be good for 15-20 goals.

Sounds like a reid like player. He'll probably give you 2 seconds gfor him!
I don't expect any of these players to be moved before the start of the year but potential candidates from Sarnia that would be valuable to a team in a later season trade are (If Sarnia packs it in):
in order of value
Charlie Sarault (F) - scorer, PP player
Nathan Chiarlitti (D) - shutdown defender with great leadership would be a good acquisition
Craig Hottot (F) - He'd be highly coveted I would imagine as he's extremely versatile and can slot in many different roles/positions
Domenic Alberga (F) - versatile as well but to a lesser extent
Julian Luciani (D) - depth defenseman/forward
Rensfeldt (import), Spooner and Anderson are all expected to head pro but if for some reason they return I'm positive they'd be moved. Very slim chance.
Not considered overagers but I'd expect Reid Boucher, Connor Murphy and Alex Galchenyuk to all be shopped if the Sting's season gets off to a bad start to recoup some assets.
I'm not sure about that...a big part will be where he goes. If the Leafs draft him he may play on the top line in the NHL next season... Most of the guys I can recall who were drafted after their first eligible year end up playing in the OHL as overagers. I guess we'll see.

But those that I can recall have always been a 6th or 7th round pick. From early indications at least, he might be a higher pick.
