NXL Off-Season Rumours, Transfers, Shens, etc......

First world problems, The battery door fell off my Halo once on the breakout, battery pack flew out and I got eliminated before I even reached my primary

I have seen plenty of Z2 fronts fly off, Rotors and even Spires self destruct in dives, it was quite common at one point to see Rotors to do a 180 in the feed neck on breakouts. Most are down to user error.

I thought that was all the rage with the Halos and B2s... Battery case held on with gaffa or electrical tape?

Not as cool as elastic bands in place of the lost lid hinge spring!

Or Pringles lid speed feed rain caps!

Chad Busiere has left impact and is heading back to damage.

That's a loss for Impact - he's a pretty decent player.

I guess he didn't get all that much playing time, with Yachimec, Brown and Ouimet doing so well this season.

So Impact will be looking for 2 new players to replace him and Bains, any thoughts on who they might pick up?

Raney's been taking over for Dave for most of the year. Now they may look to replace Raney or they may just keep the team size down.
They have Zack, Zane, Raney, JC, JRab, Keith, Nick, and Ouimet. So that's 8, I guess they could add 1 or 2 more?

I wouldn't be surprised to see Markowski leave X-Factor he got very little play time.

 

[Shepherd:03]

8 is enough, as long as they don't take any injuries. A lot of the top teams like to have enough players to run two lines of 5 though.

Raney always seems limited when he's played in a back centre role - he has all the right attributes but just seems more effective in a corner.

Chad Busiere has left impact and is heading back to damage.

Not a huge surprise to be honest - he's not got a lot of play time this year and when he did play he wasn't on the top of his game.

So Impact will be looking for 2 new players to replace him and Bains, any thoughts on who they might pick up?

So has Bains officially stepped down as a player now? I know I've seen him coaching a lot this year, but he's played a small bit as well.

Raney is a great aggresive back centre. I think the way they seem to be playing their players is more "do what is comfortable for you" rathet than forcing their players to play a particular style. Raney can play near enough any bunker and is small enough to play tight if they put in smaller back line bunkers.

Not suprised Chad has moved back. He only really left after damage collapsed, so its only natural he wants back in after theyve kept going. How that will work with the dynamics now could be interesting though.
Any news on other roster changes?
