Re: good theory

Stoney always loses early in the year, but wins late.
(2 years ago they had 5 or 6 loses before Xmas)
You won't see them play any exhibition games before Union.
It's all just skills practice, no special teams etc. until almost Xmas or so, that's just part of their seasonal plan.
Yes, their most dominant player moved up to the next level, that's what's suppossed to happen. However they have had another National level player step in this year, plus their first year goaltender from last year is now in the National level training program so look for added strength there. They will miss Haverstock who's gone to Wisconsin.
I'm with Dice, the Aero's will be strong!
