If true, it could be a reason for this transfer happening. Escalante made his 100th appearance across all competitions for Cavalry today. retire his jersey. be nice too see a player swap back as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

masster Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 He is one of the young signings I was most excited about with VFC. Hope he gets more of a chance in Calgary. nolando 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are like designated u-21 minute players working the league in the manner of a certain metaphor I guess we are not allowed to even insinuate anymore?

Mael Henry is 19, Cavarly could get a few years of U-21 minutes. Potenially more of a long-term investment than a short term-fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big_M Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 basically at most he would return for the second half of the season next year...which seems unrealistic if he wants to be gone for a full year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonovision Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 I was surprised when Akio made the jump to Europe and not particularly surprised with his return to CPL. Lots of running, a bit of skill, not a whole lot of tactical polish. It will be interesting how he fits in with Cavalry.

More turning up late, lazy etc. than being confrontational with staff. He was in the side and actually doing well then dropped like a stone. Good to see him back in the league but Valour likely needed him back more than the Cavs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much time spent down the pub was the rumour I was aware of. Reasonable enough signing in CanPL terms but if he is filling the roster spot vacated by Escalante I don't think this strengthens the Cavalry in terms of overall roster quality. toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InglewoodJack Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Lot of uh…. rumours about some of his conduct at Ross County. Hope those aren’t true, because if they are, Cavalry just picked themselves up a massive headache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big shades of going to parties back in high school and there’s always some 4th year QMJHL player there that no one really knows but you kinda keep an eye on him whenever he’s talking to some girl from your class.
