Your team also has the worst GM/coach in the WHL.

While it's true that some teams will always have an advantage in terms of skirting the rules and using money/perks to attract the top talent (Portland, Vancouver, Calgary, Dumpsville, Kelowna) don't blame Lethbridge's woes on lack of money.

Rich Preston has a horrible eye on talent and his teams use the same tired old tactics even when they don't work. Had the "privilege" of seeing them play in Kelowna a few weeks back and my goodness that's a bad, bad team. Zero talent.

Jay Merkley for Josh Derko? Goodness gracious.
