Plenty of good stuff for Roch today.  I'm very impressed that TM wants to be a winning organization at every level.

 

I hadn't thought about it before, but these signings for Roch will help the Jackals, too.  They were pretty miserable this past year, and got pillaged by the Amerks (who got pillaged even harder by the Sabres).
