General Manager James Kirkpatrick has had a busy offseason.
Coming into power with only a few meaningless games remaining last year, James had his work cut out for him. In it's eight seasons Bratislava HC has made the playoffs once, and they were promptly eliminated. All the while trading away the future.
The new GM has made a strong promise to the people of Slovakia. He has promised a team that can compete now, and that will have a bright future. When asked by a local reporter if the playoffs were in reach this year, Kirkpatrick declined to comment, but instead ate an entire grilled halibut at the podium.
Let's look at this teams lines. (Lines subject to change over the pre-season.)
Whitney Modano Doan
Naslund Elias Lupul
Lucic Peca Murray
Booth Pahlsson Zubrus
Jovanovski - Hannan
Rozsival - Orpik
Stuart - Morris
Ellis
Lehtonen
