Campbell talks latest deal

[Banackock 8,143]

The Seattle Bears have just dealt a S57 2nd rounder and goalie Joanna Akerfeldt (for cap purposes) to the Stockholm Vikings for goalie Mist4ke. A surprising deal to some, a good portion of people likely thought that the Bears were going to hold onto the 2nd round pick due to the rebuild, but also because of how thick the draft currently looks. However, the trigger was still pulled.

 

It was something I approached Bushito about a couple weeks ago. Our original plan was to wait until deadline day, but we're no longer wanting to wait until then (though, it's only a few days away). We want to win now and we don't want to wait until the draft to show those we want t attract that we're ready. We're ready to win now. We want to win and we will. Things are coming together nicely and hopefully over the next little while here we really start to develop for contention.

 

Again, tough to give up a solid pick, but we are getting a pretty good goalie and a really good, strong member into the LR. It closes a gap we currently have with the other skill levels in the LR. Also, it helps mist4ke out as he's had unfortunate luck with numbers so far in his career.  Very happy to get a deal done.
