OHL trade winds blowing
The annual January 10 trade deadline is looming. And there is no shortage of guesswork and supposition making its way in and around the Ontario Hockey League rumour mill.
A few things to remember about trade speculation: it takes two teams to tango, there are players who have no-trade clauses, and it is tricky to move overage (2004 birth year) players considering each team can only carry three of them.
Having said that, here is a Hockey News North/Hockey News Windsor list of 10 players who just might be moved prior to or at the OHL trade deadline.
— Matthew Mayich, 2004 birth year defenseman, Ottawa 67’s.
— Charlie Schenkel, 2004 birth year goalie, Soo Greyhounds.
— Andrew Gibson, 2005 birth year defenseman, Soo Greyhounds.
— Noel Nordh, 2005 birth year forward, Soo Greyhounds.
— Anthony Romani, 2005 birth year forward, North Bay Battalion.
— Mitch Young, 2005 birth year defenseman, Sarnia Sting.
— Tanner Winegard, 2005 birth year defenseman, Windsor Spitfires.
— Jett Luchanko, 2006 birth year forward, Guelph Storm.
— Carter George, 2006 birth year goalie, Owen Sound Attack.
— Zayne Parekh, 2006 birth year defenseman, Saginaw Spirit.
