Back in early February I heard rumours that upto 5 players were 'likely' to return, one of which was 'definate' RlThough by designs rumours arent definate.. Whether they were/are allegedly imports and or Britain I don't know. In more recent times I heard the following, and I very much trust the source. Forgive me for blacking out names, though I'm sure some of you will be able to work out who it refers to. Hopefully what's contained within isn't true Last thing we need is another off season of mass change. Attachments:

Seen quite a few other people say they’d bring back both Roy and Michaud but doesn’t that drastically increase the likelihood that we’ll run into faceoff issues again? I know the importance of keeping a core but you’ve got to find that balance of keeping a core while avoiding making the same recruitment mistakes They dont have to play at centre. Michaud has often had games where he isn't. His point streak came when not taking face offs I believe. Again, you could easily do the same with Roy if it was felt it was needed. He'll take periods off when he cant get it working also. He was on faceoffs when playing with Neilson and Lunsjo but you’d always have to put him alongside a winger who is good at faceoffs which feels like a lot of extra effort and I personally think he’s a more effective player at centre than on the wing anyway and unless he’s changed his mind this season that’s where he wants to play.

So you want forgiveness for blacking out names but then also at the same time leave one open throwing them completely under the bus?!! Solid move that! you might trust your source but I wouldn’t be trusting you with information (or gossip depending on your viewpoint) if this is how you’re using it. Just my opinion.

Given what's happened, it's going to be hard to determine player reasons for not staying. It certainly won't be for lack of support from the fanbase though.

I think the benefit of running a Michaud, Neilson, Lunsjö line for a whole season outweighs his face-off skills. Or let one of the other two take them. Also, regarding face-offs, Ollie has been very good at them this year. For me, you basically never run the same line all season. Something will give. Yes, those 3 were great in a short burst, but could they keep it up mover 50 games? I doubt it very much. That line played for 8 games, extrapolating that up over a season is a fair stretch. Pairs tend to be kept together, rather than whole lines? 13 and 43 have played with several wingers this season, but with each other for the vast majority of it. (98/88/56 have all been their winger for extended periods)

Given that you didn't black out the names of one player and left it easy enough to work out who's girlfriend is the source of this information I'd seriously consider deleting these screenshots before they get seen by many more people. At minimum you've made two player's positions very difficult. If I can work it out straight away then so can many, many others Yotes
