We'll also see growth from some of the young guys, offset by some step backs in our 32yr+ players.

Another year of "what are we" story lines from outside Calgary, and from inside Calgary "we turned over X amount of the roster", and "rebuilds don't always work" story lines from the die hards.

Tough sell to young fans in the market, and an impossible sell to those outside of the market.
I think if Wolf has a GAA above 3, we would fall down the standings a bit. 50 points would be great got Parekh.

I know there are NTC's and all that, but I wish our management would pull the band aid off already. Other teams aren't scared to ask their NTC players to waive. It really should not be difficult to go up to all these old guys and say "listen, you signed here because you wanted to win a cup and things have changed, we are rebuilding. Where do you want to go, give me a few teams".
