    Exhibition season

    If Danny is operating on the assumption that you have to have a Top 10 or even Top 5 player to win a championship then the team clearly should have tanked hard both years. Tanking provides premium picks that could be great players or traded for great players. Spending two years idling in...

    I think its worth taking a few moments to point out that this a colossally bad idea. I understand that Ryan Smith is anxious to bring another profession sports team to Utah, but Salt Lake's case for an MLB team is much stronger than for an NHL team. The article points to the success of...
