Please donate to the Moose Jaw Health Foundation on 800 CHAB on May 5th and 6th to help medical professionals in the Day Surgery Unit deliver the best care for chemotherapy patients at the Moose Jaw Health Foundation.
Now that we dealt our 3rd and 6th and we didn't get the Pats 2nd rounder like we all had thought... doesn't look like we are in as good of drafting position as all the fans were led to believe.
ReplyDeleteThat is why I am so against dealing away picks. We need to have youth and picks to develop the team we need with the depth we need to continue to be a top end team. Develop through the draft is the only way to go in order to be competitive in this league. These trades of 3 prospects for an average player has to stop or we will always be a mid range team.
