Andrei Kovalenko still wants a trade. Number one goaltender Chris Rogles has been seeing a lot of action and is getting tired so he is excited about the rest during the Olympic Break. the ROSES --------- The Oakland Roses organization is very pleased and excited with the results following the trade for Owen Nolan. Since the trade the team has gone on to a 10 game undefeated streak and is 8-0-2 in that span! Owner, Eric Von Tersch, is hoping to take 2nd place in the division and hoping to get a chance at the Voodoo in the playoffs. Nolan appears quite pleased with the Bay Area and his addition has sparked the whole club. That's all for for this week. Thanks for reading!
