They have great stick handling skills and are able to move the puck around to create creases and shots to the net. Teams have to get out to them at the point because they have the moves to get in close to get a good shot or in Cox to let go of a big one timer. Vanelli and Becker get down low to create screens and dirty rebounds. I have stated all along that the Tiger pp will be either the killer or savior of this team come playoffs.<br />2) Tigers need to make a splash in the trade dept. Something significant needs to happen. Clouston best be on the phone 24/7 to get deals done. Show the team that management has confidence in them and are willing to make things happen. If no trades happen I expect many players losing respect for the GM. Show these vets that what they have contributed to the team is appreciated. <br />3) Now with injuries to Owre up to 6 weeks, Penner and Marcus coming back from a significant injury we need to get more bodies to take some minutes so more guys don't get hurt.<br />4) Team has started to focus on scoring which is a positive as they were having a bit of problem with scoring. This O has led to more goals being scored against the team. I have a lesser concern with the GAA going up as I like the O we are generating. <br /> So if it is true about Hoobs going to Regina I sure hope we get a player back and not just a draft pick. Id like Klimchuk in an orange jersey.<br />I hope it was the booze talking TT. Id hate to see this blog go...Means Id have to start one...<br /><br /><br />London is 10 ranked nationally and they became sellers today...Sounds totally ridiculous to me...They have a 8-0-0-1 streak going and have Domi at the Juniors. Says a lot about the state of junior hockey that a team ranked that high has thrown in the towel.WHL Fannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3328410439347632491.post-27876578764043986262015-01-01T15:58:51.603-07:002015-01-01T15:58:51.603-07:00Steve Owre with jaw surgery.

I think this could be a straight up trade or the tiger could get more Hobbs is going to be a very good Dman to watch and Stewart will be a 20 year old next year. Stewart is mean, physical and one of the toughest guys in the league. Would be a great policeman for 2 years.<br />I would send Stanton to Portland for Keegan Iverson. Add of Stewart makes Stanton available and for next year Stewart bring a lot to the table over Stanton. Iverson is a 2nd/3rd line bruiser, is known for crushing guys into the boards and being a spark plug can also fight and is big on standing up for team mates. <br />The center situation is a difficult one I could see Petan coming here but I'm going to go with Carroll and a 17-18 year old Dman for Becker, Penner and a couple of high draft picks. Victoria is not in the running anymore and will be sellers Carroll is great with Cox and Sanford because he is big and very mean player he can have a 40 goal season but also hits and stirs the pot. <br />Those would be my trades, Id also look at Prince George to get Ruopp but it will take a lot to get him. <br />TigerTurf you have any trade scenarios? 04Forevernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3328410439347632491.post-28150265686748555332014-12-31T10:37:04.957-07:002014-12-31T10:37:04.957-07:00Anonymous December 30, 2014 at 10:08 PM - re:

Labelle accepts Bradley is ahead of him and does his job as required etc. <br /><br />Trade is going to bump someone down and potentially disrupt that chemistry, but that being said, with the club being shorthanded as much as they have been I'm sure the guys would accept a new player.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3328410439347632491.post-87896593016824391662014-12-30T23:52:49.180-07:002014-12-30T23:52:49.180-07:00"Cox is playing a lot better" are you fr..."Cox is playing a lot better" are you frigging kidding me.
