Will this basketball team do some things in Regina or like the Rush are they Saskatoon-specific using a Saskatchewan name? If the answer is yes, thanks but no thanks! Think you could play a couple of games at Brandt Centre to grow some excitement here.

The Rush have failed on that. Genier was part of that. Let's see if he learned from his mistake.
