(S4) - Weekend PT #4 - Close Calls

[Zoone16]

After the inaugural NSFL Draft, the Yellowknife Wraiths gave both Alexandre LeClair and Chris Orosz 2 pre-season games apiece at QB to decide which one of the two would get the job. In the end it was a tough, yet controversial, decision that the Wraiths chose Chris Orosz on a “gut feeling” from the head coach. Now LeClair could’ve gone and stayed as a QB and patiently wait for a team to need one or get the position from the announced expansion teams but sitting down and waiting is not his style. LeClair sucked it up and the very next day decided to move to Wide Receiver. It wasn’t an easy transition but it brought much success to the Wraiths who, due to their geographical location, needed to establish themselves early on to generate a fanbase.
So assuming that LeClair had stayed at QB and won his battle against Orosz, we probably would’ve seen him stay in Yellowknife for the longer term, as QBs are very tough pieces to move around. With such a highly offensive team in front of him he would’ve had most likely the same success as Chris Orosz.
If we assume that LeClair stayed QB but moved out to an expansion team, we might’ve seen him as the QB for either the Legion or the Liberty who did not have anyone set in stone before the expansion draft came around.
What could’ve been and what has been are two very different things and these will remain questions that will remain unanswered until the end of time.
