I live in Spruce Grove and love the Saints, but I'm not fooling myself. They're a great Tier 2 team, but would fare badly against even a poor WHL team. However, lots of great prospects come out of the AJ, and we've produced lots of great NHLers (Mark Messier, Stu Barnes, Grant Fuhr et al). The Grove is hosting the league all-star game again this season and the scouts really pay attention.
