Dear Wheat King fans

Booing the team as you leave does nothing but prove you're a fair weather fan. Signs reading "Fire Yourself Kelly" are moronic.
EVERYBODY knew this was going to be a tough year for the Wheaties. It's called rebuilding, and every team goes through it at some point. The Wheaties were a rebuilding team in 2007-2008 when Schenn, Calvert & Glennie were all rookies, and look at where that team took themsevles, and us as fans, last year. Hell, just look at the turnover of players from last season to this season. Any team losing that many key players is going to struggle the next season.
This is a young team, be patient with them. They will get better. In 2 years once the Wheaties are back as a top team in the WHL, you will realize WHY this season went the way it is, and you will see the benefits of it.
And to the guy in section 9 right on the red line, show a little class and don't heckle the team at every available moment, then stand up for every goal the Wheatie score like you're their #1 fan. You look like a jackass.
