Whalers PR

Well for my first trade deadline, this was rather crazy. The Whalers have, in our opinion, have made a few necessary moves in order to get past those terrible Bruins.

The addition of Afinogenov could be the stud we need. With him came a great addition to our farm team in Simon Gagne. We only had to give up a farm center and of course some future in 4 second round picks. I had a bit of the shakes in getting rid of the picks but if it helps me get past the "Fruitins" and make the playoffs and then take a run at those frenchies, WE WILL BE VERY PLEASED.

Picking up rental player Riku Hahl should also assist in Afiny get the necessary points needed.

The farm team acquisitions are just to comply with minimum roster standards but I am hoping they will help the team make a little run at the PMHL playoffs and then make some noise there.

All in all the Whalers organization looks like it is getting warmed up and primed to make a run. Look out Adam's division, the Whalers are not done making things uncomfortable for you. Streaks and great line combinations may just beat out "talent".
