TEAM LISTINGS ACCORDING TO DRAFT ORDER

'The Show'

Fody's
Coach Chris Fody will be drafting first again and it will be interesting to see who he protects.
Coach Fody rolled the dice and ended up with a mittful of players with Senior 'A' experience. Jeff Whiteside was too good to pass up in the 6th round so he gambled on dangling buddy Kevin Verbruggan but lost him to the wily Dave Martin.

Martin's Auto Body
Coach Dave Martin had his hands full last year with a 'high-maintenance' team. No one said coaching in the 'A' would be easy.
Coach Martin looked at all the guys who didn't get along last year and decided to draft them all onto his team. Might be an awkward dressing room for a week or so but it all works out for the best.

Re/Max
Coach Brent Stewart put the franchise back in order last year after numerous defections, injuries and no-shows decimated the roster. He will be looking for healthy, committed players in the draft.
Coach Stewart went with tried and true for the first half of the draft and has his fingers crossed that this lineup can stay intact.

Agrospray
Matt Summers has shown he isn't afraid to roll the dice on unproven talent.
Coach Summers lost some offence as the Chuter got scooped but has improved his defence so this team will still be tough to beat.

 

'The Farm'

Martin's
Team owner Tim Martin has announced that Wayne Hare and Kim Alexander will co-coach this fishy franchise.
The coaching tandem of Hare and Alexander are looking for an improvement on last year's record and are predicting a playoff spot. D-men are hard to come by as the 'B' lost 5 good ones from last season so this staff is considering the 1-4 alignment.

Glass
The veteran Dave Mels will be back at the helm looking to improve on last season's results.
Coach Mels made the fewest changes possible so this team will be ready to roll right out of the gate. Mels acquired the highly-coveted Lawrence Pettinger by returning Ron Gasparetto to the Dynamic cult where everyone is somehow related.

Dynamic Paintware
Once again some tough decisions for Coach Eric MacFadden on his protected list.
Coach MacFadden has gathered up most of 'the clan' and has scored a major coup by pulling Gaspy back into the coven. Always a tough team to beat with GrandMaster Orpen at the helm.

Copper Mug
Coach Craig Hantz has a good nucleus to protect but may lose a player (or two) to 'The Show'.
Coach Hantz has taken a hit with scoring champ Sean Jansen going to the bigs. A rousing cheer was heard at the draft as some of the other coaches were happy for Sean to have this opportunity. The Mug will still be tough to beat as the top of their order remains intact.
