Grabs is a very skilled player. We'll miss him in Spokane. I wish him all the best, along with Derek Ryan, Sean Zimmermen, and Evan Haw.

I wish Grabby luck as well. It was fun watching him the last few years. He had some amazing goals!

The Chiefs are definitely going to be hurting on Defense next year. They'll lose Zimmerman, Haw and Lenoski. That's alot of ice time to be made up.
