  1. I think we tend to overvalue our players more than other teams do. Some teams may have been hesitant to give a young guy such a big contract. I think Utah’s owner is trying to copy Vegas and throw money at players to speed up their success, which may or may not work.

    I look at the trade like we needed a right steering wheel snowplow, which are hard to get, so they cost more. We got a big fast one with low mileage, and they threw in a rugged snowblower, but we had to give up one of our sports cars to get it. We still have some sports cars, and some still on the production line, but we filled a need. Now we need to see if we can use other assets to get one or two dependable performance cars that have some mileage on them.

    I can't believe they couldn't sell an NLL franchise. They are in demand. Was there a clause to keep them in Rochester? Maybe that's the rub. Blue Cross Arena is not exactly state of the art. A city the size of Rochester ought to have a 16-18K seat venue.

    The attendance of their biggest attraction, the Amerks, averages around 6,000. So there is no justification for that large of a venue.

    When Houston gets a team it will be named the Houston Aeros.  Book it.

    I don’t think so, too much time has passed. Most people don’t know the origin; that the team was originally going to be the Dayton Aeros as tribute to Ohio’s aviation history.

    They will pick a name relevant to Houston and Texas.

    Will Cuylle, Schneider, Rempe for Peterka and Byram

    Rempe is a goon with little skill; no thanks. There are plenty of better hard to play against 4th liners who won’t embarrass the team.
