After three straight years of finishing dead last, the Niagara Ice Dogs have come to life. Is it a cautionary tale? Yes, but the St. Catharines canines have us believing and we'll tell you why we like them ... and why we're still worried. Still in the East, Barrie wants to make sure you know they're still in the mix as they deal for a 100+ point man from North Bay. That creates an overage crunch for the Colts, though, so a difficult decision will have to be made, just like it's been made in other markets. Dan and Mike break down both sides of the OA equation and why it frustrates fans. Plus, new league Commissioner Bryan Crawford has said he believes the league has room to grow. So, what markets might be ready? Dan and Mike even take it a step farther by realigning the divisions with the new teams added. Brace yourself, it's not terrible!
