Hoffman- Ellis gone

They paid him a compliment by trading him out west to keep him from playing for our division rivals. If they didn’t think enough of him (thought he wasn’t talented) likely an eastern team might have been considered.

Sorry for your first world problem. Hopefully you can afford to pay for tickets and can attend games anyway. :thup:

:cowboy:
8) Good one Mike :lol:

Put it this way - we got an 8th-round conditional pick for him, he keeps his contract with his new team (unless it’s renegotiated), and he won’t be playing in our Division. What wasn’t mentioned (and I wouldn’t guess if it was kept hush-hush) is if he asked for the trade. Every player wants to be a starter, and the only way he would be doing that here is by injuries to our starters.
