    The Hitmen have picked up 19 year old Riley Reinbolt from the Warriors today. Reinbolt has 10 points in 116 WHL games.

    Interesting to see Roach play left wing last night. He had Trz'ski on the right side & Broissoit in the middle. He did seem lost at times but sure added size to the forwards. As far as trading a dman it will come down to two players. Schmidt is the most likely as I would put both Roach & Lubin ahead of him and we have some good 15 & 16's (Wallace, Donald & Greig) for the future. I know you won't get a top 6 forward but you can get a 17 yr old forward for the future or else in a package for an 18 yr old. I still see Stebner as trade bait if we can get a top line O/A forward. With MacK, Riss, Kosterman, Benny & Berg we can afford trading Zac for a goal scorer. And we can rotate the three young dman in the sixth slot. So if we can add a Brock Nixon type of forward then this trade makes sense. Plus we get a draft choice from Kamloops if Stebner isn't back (unless this part gets voided because we get an asset already for him- most probable).

    Default My thoughts on the season...

    The Hitmen are really going to be hard pressed to score goals this year. Lots of pressure on the older kids up front this year, Fiddler, Foucault, Bubnick, Beach and Sylvester. I expect a good year from Justin Kirsch. The kid had so many chances last year but just couldn't buy a break. I am really looking forward to seeing this American kid, Trevor Cheek play. Apparently he is fast.

    The strength is on the blue line this year and will be anchored by Matt MacKenzie was he is returned. Stebner, Wilson, Kosterman and Rissling round out the top 5.

    If some of the young kids can step up in a big way offensively, I see them Hitmen in the middle of the pack but if no kids step up they might be in a fight for a playoff spot.
