indeed it is, but what's your complaint? The Frosties' back-to-back championships present strong evidence that the organization has a handle on what it takes to build & sustain a successful roster. If/when they fall from their lofty perch, then we can criticize their decisionmaking skills.Curl as Minnesota's fourth protected player is... a choice.
