Thoughts on February : February saw us bounce back into a playoff spot after a very tough month of January. Because of that we didn’t do much at the deadline except for the trade of Kurtis Foster who became very unhappy with the team after we trade Penner who is one of his close friend. He then became a distraction for the whole team by showing up late for practice. We liked him but his attitude forced us to let him go.

Gladiator n00b Join Date: Mar 2009	Thoughts on February : February saw us bounce back into a playoff spot after a very tough month of January. Because of that we didn’t do much at the deadline except for the trade of Kurtis Foster who became very unhappy with the team after we trade Penner who is one of his close friend.
