This is quite possible. I am still curious what happens with Noah Gregor.

Lafferty would need to be waived or traded for Gregor to make it. There is a chance that happens in my mind.

Of course, they may send Minten down to juniors as well, to make sure they can sign Gregor and not lose Lafferty.

We will see what happens!

Hey TMLBrian,

Thank you for the feedback. I really am hoping they do not waive Sam Lafferty. We have seen him play well enough in the playoffs last season, Gregor has been great too but we know more about Lafferty than him in competitive matches. If they sign Gregor I think they either send Minten to Kamloops or waive Gregor, hope he clears and then recall him when injuries happen.

Anyone else think the Minten love is getting out of hand? He has been surprisingly decent, especially for a 19 year old, but I still wouldn’t given him a spot over Robertson, Holmberg, or Gregor.

Gregor especially has earned a spot on this team for me. He has been the better player and importantly would, unlike the other three, require waivers likely getting claimed by another team.

Hello Birdman,

Thank you for the feedback. I think Minten's praise has been well deserved, I would take him over Holmberg and Robertson, but you can definitely make the argument for Gregor over him right now. I personally don't care either way if Minten makes it or not, going to junior will still be great for his development. I've liked him though and I think he adds a unique element to the bottom-six should Keefe decide he wants to keep him around. Losing Gregor on waivers isn't a good thing but it also wouldn't be the end of the world. I'd rather keep Lafferty personally.
