Rossi is probably better than who we'll get at 18 (def better than who we will get at 32), Popsicle and a prospect.

Acquiring Rossi goes against the trend towards building a bigger team that’s hard to play against. We’ve talked about how the drafting strategy of picking bigger skilled players. Rossi is skilled. Big he is not.
We talk about the age range that we are looking for. But believe we are also looking for bigger players as well. Rossi would be our smallest centerman. I believe conroy has a plan and will stick to it. Easy to get caught up in the hype of a player like Rossi being available, but doesn’t fit the profile of the type of player we are looking for (apart from being a young C).
