That post was an eye opener. Missing a few draft picks thanks to last season.Wow, we don't have our 1st this year? Ouch...
Right...the Guhle trade. Well, tanking this year sucks.
If anyone has seen Justin Almeida play for Moose Jaw...is he just benefiting from being on a really good team, or is he actually playing as well as his stats indicate? Interested how he has been.
First step is getting all those picks, next step is picking the right players - which is the biggest step. They can't screw these picks up or it's going to be a dark 5-7 years.
The #6 ranked team in the nation decides to be sellers and deal probably their 2 best players, what the.
Brandon seems to be really stocking up on picks over the next 4 years. They have 16 picks in the first two rounds over the next 4 drafts. With some really intriguing prospects coming up in the next couple of years I think they have a decent idea of what they are doing. They could have been buyers but some of the teams in the WHL are just way to loaded. I actually think they made a pretty good move in acquiring a bunch of picks from current contenders that are likely to be in tough spots over the coming years. Specifically Moose Jaw and Victoria.
I disagree about Victoria, they always find a way to at least be a playoff team, more likely they are decently competitive, they find ways to get decent players, Jared Legien for instance was a great signing in the off-season, looked to be done at this level, looking at their team for next season it's likely to be a playoff team again, though not as good as this years.
Yeah they definitely have some talent to keep them going but at some point every team rebuilds, unless they are cheating to get talent. But even so those teams will often times blow it up for picks at some point.
