With the end of the season coming up quickly, I don’t expect much (if any) movement from the Vancouver Whalers. We are in a good spot, however after loading up last season to get a championship, there really needs to be a “replenishing” of the cupboards in Vancouver. While we still have some good pieces that came back, there really was a mass exodus of veterans last year.

However, the guys that stuck around have really made an incredible impact. As the co-captain of the defending champs, I am so proud of this group of guys. We will see how far it goes, as the playoffs could be difficult, especially with some other teams finally playing up to their potential. Also, there are a few teams that appear to be loading up like we did last season.

It will be a difficult run to try and repeat, but my squad will do everything it can to try and repeat. If nothing else, we will not be a pushover.
