I think you are onto something Hit! Either they don't want to pay out the fees and deal with the paperwork or it is just easier to go with American born players, but we don't pick them up off of the wire either? Other clubs have no problem though either way? Maybe the Franke's should give Joe McGrath a call, I bet he would get it done! Seems like they have written this season off to me.

I'm guessing the K's got red flagged last year when they gave a kid that didn't even make the team the wrong paperwork for his visa and it was caught by the government. They don't exactly take that stuff lightly. Same situation that held up Thorne and Beech coming in to town last year.
