Yeah, I can definitely relate. My strength also seems to lie on my bench (Though, a lesser extent of yours) but more on versatility as I can experiment with tactics, positions and training.
That three week injury on your C has got to hurt and the fact he's only 22 got to make it worse. Still, I think you can bounce back, as you still have a 9 man rotation in place. From what I learned, depth is nice and all, but I believe there has to be a "guy" (At least 100+K) that can lead a team into Naismith and compete.
Oh, so you named your team Calgary Spitfires..Are you from Calgary? If so, I am too lol (:
