- It would seem Ricard likes his own traditions this time of year: Bathurst and Italians. M-O Brouillard was sent to the Titan for Giovanni Fiore (which means Johnny Flower, by the way), a first rounder in 2014, and a third rounder this year that previously belonged to Val-d'Or. The move means the end of the Tomas Torok experiment (7 points in 18 games).
- Then they got Miguel Caron from Team I Do Not Want To Discuss Right Now Due To Recent Events for a fourth-rounder in 2014.
- Gabriel Labbé was sent to (guess who?) Bathurst in return for Étienne Salvail, straight up. Not stirred or shaken.
- And today, the Volts tried to give Alexandre Grenier to the Phoenix for a tenth rounder, but the papers were filed too late so they get to claim him off waivers instead. Noooooooooo!
- Also leaving (well, sent down for now) is Érik Longtin.
Around the league:
- Rimouski and Rouyn swapped goaltenders, as Carl Hozjan and Robin Gusse head to opposite sides of the province.
- T.I.D.N.W.T.D.R.N.D.T.R.E also won the Jérémy Grégoire sweepstakes, also picking up netminder Francis Desrosiers in return for their next two first rounders, Thomas Gobeil and Loïk Leveillé.
- Well well well, Moncton gets Phillip Danault. The return? Gabriel Gagné, first round selections in 2014 and 2015, a 2015 2nd-rounder as well as a first round selection in the 2014 Euro Draft. Somewhere in there is Alex (Alex? Who's Alex?) Ivan Barbashev which is drawing criticism (if not profanity).
Everything else you either knew already or is boring but you can check it out here anyway.
Alum-flash: In news that makes me less grumpy, apparently Max Villemaire has returned to the Sea Dogs from the Gwinett Gladiators of the ECHL. Over/under on how many penalty minutes that game will have, and what percentage are his? :D
