Hockeytube.net sat down with Vernon Vipers Head Coach/G.M. Jason Williamson to talk about the team’s moves at the trade deadline. The Vernon Vipers shocked a number of fans by trading away three top forwards. Vernon sent Adam Tambellini, a possible second round NHL draft pick, to Surrey and Aaron Hadley to Nanaimo. Vernon also traded Pearce Eviston to Victoria. In return the Vipers get Mason Blacklock from Surrey plus future players from the Eagles, Clippers and Grizzlies. Williamson told Hockeytube.net that it was an emotional and difficult day to say goodbye to those players.

Slap in the face to fans. This isn't the NHL, future prospects don't mean anything in this league. They need a coach with experience that can lead, inspire and motivate teenagers to come together with good systems and team chemistry.
ReplyDeleteAnother year without playoffs. Thank God the NHL is starting up again!
