Hey everyone... With the end of the season winding down, I'm planning on doing a one-time podcast regarding my awesome experience as a GM in the SHL on Friday morning.
UPDATED: Thank you for all of the questions! Yes I know, I probably failed to mention a couple players... I yawned a shit ton... and probably didn't have the Pepsi label outward when I would take a drink. After 24 hours working... I looked drunk, lol. But I wanted to do something different for this. This league means a shit ton to me and I thank each one of you who has played a part in my experience.

Why is a tennis ball fuzzy?
Do you believe in Bigfoot?
Do you believe in Geronimo Otto?
Any trades you regret?
Favourite moment? Least favourite?
Also talk about me my ego needs a boost. Or a deflating. Whichever.
Do you think you have left the Admirals in good hands?
What's next for Wally? Would you accept another important role if it was given?
What would change differently from you experience as GM of the Admirals?
Is this the last we will see of Wally in the SHL for a while?
Smartest thing you've ever done as a GM? Don't be bashful.
Dumbest thing you've ever done as a GM? Don't lie.
Opposing GM that you hope to one day beat up in a dark alley?
If you had to pick 5 defining moments of your time in Portland, what would they be and why?
What did you learn about STHS in your time making lines and working with builds? Has this experience changed your view on build strategy and possibly a change in future recreate avenues?
Did Buffalo get a harsh enough punishment? Did
I get a harsh enough punishment?
Which GM was easiest to trade with (considering your vast trading expertise
)?
Do you feel there is a team you have developed a rivalry with for Portland in your tenure? If not, do you regret that choice?
Review of all the other GM's and Co-GMs?
I'm not creative enough to think of questions, so talk about me o:-)
Hello. Let me add something from the rookies....
What do you think the franchise still needs and what should they look for in the upcoming draft?
Cheers,
Izzy -
Talk about what a shit coach and shit person I am
Portland has gone from bottom feeder to playoff team. They've got retiring veterans and rookies on the roster. How would you describe Portland's team identity?
What does Portland need to do this off season to keep themselves in the playoffs next year and take that next step?
What's this season been like for you as a backup goalie? Will you be the starter next year?
Are you more impressed with Portland's goaltending and defense this year or the Admirals' offense and depth scoring?
How great was that trade deadline acquisition?
If you played 29minutes a game as the top line center, could you score more goals than McZ?

I don't think <a href='index.php?showuser=2236' rel='nofollow' alt='profile link' class='user-tagged mgroup-13'>Wally</a> knows enough about you to talk about you
For Wally:
1. Who are some players you miss?
2. Will you ever consider GMing another SHL team?
3. Most favourite Locker Room moment?
4. Considering your successes with Portland in transforming it from a constant lottery contender to now a playoff contender, who, besides yourself, do you believe doesn't get enough recognition for their efforts in terms of management?
5. Explain the "Squaad" gif in your signature?
6. Bork?
A couple questions about the whole Kaiser fiasco:
1. Could the whole Kaiser situation have gone better? (i.e. less bad blood)
2. Looking back on the trade, would you make it again?
3. With Kaiser's somewhat improvement in Hamilton, do you think that it made sense to have a change of scenery for him?
Wow considering the number of questions here I will keep it simple what is your favorite and least favorite team logo?
