More summer roster changes

There will be some new faces in the Arrowhawk locker room this summer. There will also be some old faces playing new positions -- like Jensen manning the wing and Andrew between the pipes. Many of the usual suspects will be home knitting sweaters with their wives, running their kids to and from sporting events, trying to fix their broken down Ducati's (never ends) or trying to perfect the art of building a rocket out of old beer cans. But that's ok. We've replaced you. At least for one session, anyway.

Since I'm in the giving mood, the Eskimos, Leafs CS Bank, Whalers Rurrittto (still can't spell that darn team name) and Mamas can have some advanced scouting:

Bryan Wharton - AKA Tool Helmet. We knew it was just a matter of time before we got our hooks into this talented player. "He's been an Arrowhawk killer," said Jason Jensen, starting netminder. "It'll be great to finally have him on our side for once. What a great acquisition." Wharton will certainly be a top 6 forward for the Hawks. Rumor is, team captain Mark Monahan may even move to wing to maximize the line's effectiveness (the move has been confirmed, Monahan will move to the wing, centered by Bryan with Morgan as the other wing.)

Nick Elswick - TRON! Welcome back Tron! Long ago Tron would drive opposing forwards nuts with his long as hell reach and tenacity on the ice. It'll be great to have him out there again. Right now Elswick is slated to play defense, but that could change.

Bret MacDonald - Bret is a former high school player from Utah and comes to us through Martin Spanhel, the CAHL commissioner. No word yet on a) whether Bret is mormon (not that it matters but we've never had a mormon on our team) and b) if he can score goals; but we'll welcome him either way.

Welcome to the club, boys!
