Thrashers-Wolves Disjunct

Custance in today's AJC:

"In Chicago we have a totally different team. It's very offensive and obviously [the Wolves] are doing very well, so it's different," Valabik said. "Totally different."

Yes, a team that is doing very well is completely different than the Thrashers.

Ouch. It's interesting that the Chicago Wolves, our farm/affiliate team, are the second best team in the AHL (behind only the Providence Bruins) while we're like, uh, not the second or third best team in the NHL. Go fucking figure.

Part of the problem is the Wolves have many players that have contracts with... the Wolves, not Thrashers. John Anderson, the coach, is employed by the Wolves, not Thrashers. Their main objective is to win games at the AHL level. It is not to develop players for the Thrashers. That is why they play two totally different styles of hockey.

This needs to be changed in my opinion...
