One thing I've been noticing more and more watching this team lately is the impact that I feel Heavnor is having on the team. Heavnor has helped a whole bunch to solidify the 'Neck presence in the face off circle which was somewhere I felt over the past two seasons they'd really been lacking. With the number of goals scored in lacrosse I think the initial faceoff is somewhere that a team really can't allow itself to be weak. The only other thing I'm still not sold on is the Ratcliffe for Sanderson trade. I understand that the 'Necks offense is gifted with a good number of natural finishers and a setup man SHOULD help them along. But I can't help compare this to hockey. Would you rather have an Iginla on the ice when you need a goal, or a Tanguay? I personally hope I'm wrong about this trade. And I'm sure that Sanderson can prove me wrong over the rest of this season and the next couple. There's my two cents.
