At the start of the off season I was contacted by two teams. Orange County and Baltimore. Both teams interviewed me and I believe I gave a good impression. Yellowknife has been actively evaluating me throughout my waiver season and I had a real feeling I would be returning as a wraith. Then the big trade came and the Wraiths secured the #1 spot. I was told I was going to be the first pick as soon as the spot was secured.
Which defensive player were you the saddest to see "get away?"
Get away? You mean leave Yellowknife I assume. If I'm being honest, nobody really. Obviously it's tough to see teammates leave, but if it's best for the franchise then it's a no brainer.
With so many changes on the defensive side of the ball, do you see this as a new defense, or just new personnel into the same culture?
Yeah it's definitely going to be the same mindset as last year. Everybody here wants to win and be successful as possible. These guys will slot right in and our work ethic will only continue to improve.
