Seattle at Spokane - Game Thread

We just did this! Thanks a lot computer schedule maker... oh, we play them tomorrow as well? Back at home? Geez...

Anyways... the only news this week was the departure of Michal Holub.

Holub made his way into 50 games last year as a 16 year old but had only played in 16 game so far this season. The overall talent level of the Seattle forwards has improved quite a bit from last season and Holub just wasn't able to find minutes.

I wasn't convinced that Holub was ever going to be able to carve out much of a WHL career and this will give him the opportunity to either find some playing time in Junior A or get traded to a team that might have some ice time to let him development. Probably the best move for him at this time, we wish him well.

From Gregg Drinnan's outstanding blog Taking Note, the following:
F Dante Fabbro is spending the weekend in Madison, Wisc., checking out the University of Wisconsin campus and the men’s hockey program. The Seattle Thunderbirds selected Fabbro, who is from Coquitlam, B.C., with the eighth overall pick in the 2013 bantam draft.

Lets hope that he signs with the Birds! Thankfully Barzal signed and the Birds are playing well.
