Looks as though the Spirit trade their first round pick to Sudbury, for what I don't know. I imagine we will find out. I get the feeling that the Spirit don't really care much for this whole import thing. I'm getting a sense that it is a very expensive crap-shoot they would just as soon do without.

I find what the Spirit Management is upto interesting.

We now have 2 EURO players on our team. Maybe they would rather get proven players through trades instead of through the draft.

We traded it for a 5th rounder in 2004. Pretty even deal if you ask me. The Spirit draft Tomas Csabi at #13 last season and we all know how that one went.

I am happy to get a 2nd rounder and 5th rounder in the 2004 OHL Draft, plus Gimblett in exchange for the #3 pick in a crapshoot Import Draft. Nothing against import players, but nothing is certain in that draft. Costa took one pick and turned it into a solid `85 born player, and two picks in the "real" draft. Pretty good dealing if you ask me.

And I believe Yachmenev is our only Import player.

A proven player, and 2 picks in the real draft is a very good move by the Spirit.

in particular, a 2nd!

Remember, that is what we traded Colt King for!
