The Legendary Trio: Split up Again?

This season, the prestigious Junior Showcase Tournament announced that there would be a change in eligibility for its players. Instead of allowing only players who were not VHLM-drafted yet, it would expand to those who have not been VHL-drafted. This meant that all S86 and S87 players could participate.

 

Lachlan Summers, John Richards, and Sadie St-Louis— also known as the Legendary Trio— were ecstatic that they had the chance to play in the tournament once more, as they all expressed a desire to take part again by the conclusion of the S84 JST.

 

The draft was underway a mere few days later and at 4th overall, Lachlan was selected by the Steel. Afterwards, the friends sat in wait, wondering if they’d get a chance to reunite once more. At 15th overall, Sadie was selected by the Royals. Then soon after, at the 22nd pick, John was also drafted by the Royals.

 

The trio was dumbfounded and weren't sure how the two of them were always guaranteed to end up on the same team while one was left out. This has already happened on numerous occasions:

 

- During the S84 JST, John and Sadie were both drafted to the Brigade and Lachlan went to Team Clue, but at the expansion draft— John and Lachlan were selected by the Pickles

- At the Pro Am, Sadie and Lachlan were both members of the Arctic Ground Squirrels while John played for the Atlantic City Angus

- Then came the S85 VHLM dispersal draft, and Lachlan returned to the San Diego Marlins, meanwhile John and Sadie were reunited on the Ottawa Lynx

 

Was this a sequence of mere coincidences or conspiracy? Perhaps we’ll never know, but maybe the trio’s fate will change at the S86 VHL and VHLE drafts.
