I know its a longshot but i would rather see Bernier in a cats jersey then Bourque this year I'd rather have both... I would also like if they found out that there was a mistake on Crawford's birth certificate and the doctor would have put a day to early.

How many times has the Rocket had that high a Euro pick? I honestly don't know. I know this year it is crucial they find an impact player.. they got one in Truhkno last year which was a bonus... this year they are in a position to land another and there is no excuse not to.. let's say that Euro scores 20 (conservative estimate).. Stewart I expect to score 30.. Bolduc at least 10.. there's 60 goals right there to replace the 83.. I am positive guys like Hawes, Charron, Dubuc and Boivin will contribute more than they did last year.. O'Brien as well... so all those missing goals are easily replaced couple that with a better defense and a cut down of a minimum of 35 goals from last year (1/2 goal per game) and the fact we play more games against weaker opposition with theunbalanced schedule and it's not that farfetched to assume we can compete for 3rd spot if we overachieve.. and 4th or 5th if we play to our capability on paper Why is it we have to replace 83 goals according to you (you don't even factor the goals coming back) and Lewiston doesn't have to replace the 80 plus goals they lost in Picard, Bourret, Paiement (likely not in Lewy if he returns), Murphy and Gates.... you guys don't have to replace the 60 some goals you lost in Bernier, Glode, Bergeron, Salvis (even worse if Karsums or Graham do go pro), Cape Breton don't have to replace the 60 some goals they lost in Dixon, Lambert, Pardy, Smith and Demers and Halifax don't have to replace the 130 plus goals they lost in Vrana, Bernier, Sharrow, Picard, Guennette, Steber, Sheppard, Corredato etc? See all the teams except Bathurst are worse off right now offensively.. many teams have a sniper with injury concerns (Laliberte, Karsums, Aubin) yet you think we are the ones who are losing the most when I think we've actually improved Another 5 30 goal scorer post. in a different uniform Why would Stewart score 30 goals playing for an inferior team? He will probably score less. He has fewer talented players around him to help out. "There is no excuse not to get an impact Euro" ?? Let me just say that the odds say you will probably not get an impact Euro. My statement makes as much or more sense than yours. You lost your #2 and #4 dman and replaced them by Leduc and the "glass man" LeBlanc. What makes you think this guy will actually last more than 1/2 a season in PEI? That's a big questionmark whether you want to admit or not. If everything goes right like you pray for, then yeah, you'll be in 3rd place. But if everything goes like it does for most teams, then you guys are near the bottom. Every team could say that "if everything goes right" we'll be way up there. Doesn't make it a reasonable assumption. If everything goes the way I'd like, the Titan will finish 1st overall, but I'm not counting on it. Nice logic.. where am I saying anything about 5 30 goal scorers? I assume Stewart and Truhkno will be our only 30 goal men
