Failure to secure an experienced , quality goaltender in 2017 torpedoed the teams best chance of success, in the 'post Victor Mete ' years.
After declaring there was 'no way we are going into 2018 with two 17 year old goalies', the writing was on the wall for me before things got going .
It's unfortunate the assets realized in that Mete deal will not see their goal realized in Owen Sound , and so the teardown, resultant pain and rebuild begins.
We are not experienced in this here, however , management strategies throughout the league force DD to get with the times.
2019 begins with the grey of clouds hanging over our team, and also the most excitement moving forward, wondering just what things will look like as the new foundation is laid .
Somewhat ironically, the guy who shouldered much of the growing pains the last time the Attack was in this situation ( even worse ), just happens to be on board as a coach now.
Yes folks us Attack fans have had a good run of better than decent hockey, now it's our turn to pay the piper.
