Given the comments by Bez in the Sun article today: (http://www.torontosun.com/2013/10/27...iet-confidence), and all the comments to this effect in the "general player move/speculation" thread I thought it appropriate to start a thread for just this aspect of the discussion.
Personally, I think that if we start the season with the theme being that 'don't worry about the first half of the season, the cavalry will come in the summer' then I think we will be in for another heart wrenching season.
In my opinion, we need at least 1 DP starting the season with us (preferably an AM), and AAALLLLLL the other pieces that the management team feel will get them into the play-off's in place at training camp. No more adding 12 players during the season bullshit that we have seen over the last 7 years. Loan players are fine, but we can't have them integral to the team and have 4 of them leave mid way during the season like this year imo.
This team needs to hit the season rolling with 90% of it in place starting day 1 in training camp including Laba and at least 1 other DP (preferably AM).
