Cooper looks like he could have a monster year

I know there was talk about Cooper being the most expendable of the Twin Cities young core and that the team should probably move him... but he's really been the heart and soul of the line up for almost 5 seasons. When he went down last season, the team really struggled offensively without him.

It's easy to look at a corner OF prospect and say, eh he's expendable. But with someone of his quality, especially given his intangibles he's really more of a cornerstone than a typical LF'er. It's why CarGo will be a Surfer for life.
