They were very nice to grant that to us,

I don't think any of these players are sitting there shedding a tear. They have a lot of different options. Guys who are active and can play are looking at it as a great chance to go to an environment where they can choose, make more and win a championship. The guys it helps are the ones who have games left. It's Christmas (for them).

They've opened up their arms and hearts for us. And we're really appreciative of that.

There's just no communication. It's very tough.

As of right now, that's our only option, ... We'll look for others. But right now that seems to be the best.

That's where we start. Hard to say where this thing is going to take us in the next few weeks.
