Moose Make Jeff Rogers Franchise Player
Finally, all focus is off the six Franchise Players, and onto next weeks draft. The Moose were the last of the six FHL teams to announce their decision on a Franchise Player. GM Zack Siniawski annonuced his decision early this afternoon during a press conference at Franklin Primary.
"I'm going to franchise Jeff Rogers," was the first thing out of Siniawski's mouth after pausing for over two minutes. Later, the Moose Captain added, "He's the kind of guy I'm looking to build my franchise around. He's a puck moving defenseman who sees the ice and is technically sound."
It seems that Jeff Rogers has finally found a home. Last year, a journeymen, was traded twice, and played for three different teams. For Bishop Boyle, the Pirates, and the Hawks, Rogers scored 7 goals and added 14 assists. The year before, for the Hawks, Rogers finished second in the league in points by scoring 23 goals and adding a league leading 35 assists.
One week from today, at 10 p.m., the 2009 Franklin Hockey League Draft will start. The Kings are on the clock, followed by the Moose. Bishop Boyle, the Crosby's, Pirates, and Jets will conclude the first round. This will be a busy week for all six FHL General Managers. Stay tuned for mock draft's, interviews, and more.
