What now?
The Raider's open a seven game home stand Wednesday night against the Medicine Hat Tigers.
The immediate goal is snapping a five game losing streak. However having won only once in the last 12 games leaves the Raiders 14 points out of a playoff spot and only one point out of last overall.
To say the road back to playoff contention in an extremely competitive Eastern conference will be a long and rocky one is an understatement, but not impossible.
Many fans and message boarder's suggest why not go young now and have the baby faces gain valuable experience through the so-called school of hard knocks. The rationale being, if you are losing anyway why not build experience for the future.
