RE: S51 WFT #1 - Giving Thanks - Thunfish - 12-01-2019
I think I'll have to say thanks to everyone that helped me out so far and/or have been my friends. I know I can be a bit of a ditz at times but I really like everyone and have enjoyed my time on the league as a result.
RE: S51 WFT #1 - Giving Thanks - StamkosFan - 12-01-2019
I am so thankful for all my friends and the wonderful people I have been able to form great memories that I will forever cherish in this community. There are so many people who have been there for me in one way or another but there are a few names that come to mind that deserve special shoutouts.
@Inf1d3l always gets a shoutout whenever I'm talking positivity, he's a good guy and he has been a great friend to me. We were never teammates but we are one of the few left from the dwindling S44 draft class and we hit it off from the start. In spite of him stealing my money in the casino every year, I have not thunderdomed him, that's how much I like him. He's always been such a positive influence off the ice and in recent years his player has been destroying on the ice; I'm excited to see how he finishes out his career.
@fever95 and I have stayed close in spite of not being teammates, although we forged our bond through being teammates for 6 or 7 years on the Winnipeg Jets. Always just a great guy to talk to, a guy who puts everyone at ease without trying. And in recent years we have grown even closer in spite of both moving to new teams, keeping in touch and rallying together every year for Sweden in IIHF. I'm proud to have gotten the chance to get to know fever and hope that we stay buddies for the rest of our SHL careers.
@TheHockeyist has been a guy I've chatted with regularly in recent days. He is intelligent and unabashedly himself which I respect and admire so much. He is someone I feel I can be fully myself around and where I can be open and honest about my feelings, which I appreciate so much. There's a real connection there and I'm glad that a passing comment in a media thread about Christmas sparked a friendship, it's strange how these things just happen.
@The__Y-man__100 has become a close friend of mine and probably my best bud on the New England Wolfpack after we found our common interest in music. Beyond just having awesome musical taste that has led to us having a fun habit of sending each other a jam to listen to every morning, he is a fun and easygoing fellow who I have enjoyed getting to know. Meeting him has been one of the happiest things to come out of me getting shipped off to a new team and I'm grateful for our friendship.
@Ace and I don't know each other too well personally but I'm grateful that he traded for me when I needed a change of scenery and gave me a chance, as well as a lot of ice time. Cheers to a fellow gambling addict!
@FlappyGiraffe I know you're inactive now but thanks for drafting me all those years ago at second overall back when nobody knew who I was. I hope that while my tenure with the Jets did not work out, you're as pleased as I am with what we accomplished and winning that Challenge Cup in S44. You gave me everything and I don't regret my time in Winnipeg at all.
@nykonax became my friend outside of SHL but our friendship has reached over to here and many other sim leagues. Thanks for just being a friendly guy who has always worked together with me in one way or another in every sim league we have been in. We'll be closing out our careers together in VHL and I hope we can do the same here.
@diacope I miss you come back ;-; You've been a friend of mine for years and years and I enjoyed our brief time as part of the Jets organization together, I was very sad when you announced that you were going inactive. I hope one day you can come back and find pleasure and happiness in SHL again. You're great in other sim leagues and I know you can be a great here too!
@hotdog Pass should count on the mock draft ffs. No seriously you do a great job as PT director and also you've been a great co-GM to me on my new team. Thanks for being a bro here and in PBE. Your patience with my shenanigans is appreciated.
@Eggy216 I appreciate all the work you do as commissioner, thank you for giving me a shot as the Recruitment Head. I'm excited about taking the league in a new direction and getting a huge amount of new members, and I'm so glad for the opportunity to bring my vision to fruition. I won't let you down and we will bring about a new golden era for the SHL!
@Whikadoodle Shoutout to you for being the best co-Fed Head I ever could have asked for in team Sweden! You've been a big help and always a great guy to converse with about my ideas for the future, and I know we'll bring the gold back to where it belongs together! Also props to you for also having great taste in music, punk rock ain't dead!
@JSS Thank you for helping me get into the league all those years ago in juniors on the Falcons, and also for giving me tips on how to approach Reddit recruitment! There are a lot of things that would have been much more difficult to do without you and I appreciate everything you've done over all these years.
@DilIsPickle Shootout to you for being my teammate every since you joined the league and being my only recruit ever to hit 700 TPE! I've enjoyed playing with you and working side by side with you to build a great defenseman, and it's also been awesome to have you as part of team Sweden and to have won a gold together! Even if you might be leaving soon I will miss you and it's been a pleasure, best of luck with college man!

I am thankful for the new England wolfpack as they decided to draft me when no one else would. Respect to flareon as I think it was him who told Ace about a sleeper prospect that was still available
RE: S51 WFT #1 - Giving Thanks - Bonk - 12-01-2019
I am thankful for the SHL and its community. Oh shit, that is not 25 words. Well I guess, I will have to say that I am thankful for my family, good friend and generally speaking a happy life.
RE: S51 WFT #1 - Giving Thanks - Naosu - 12-01-2019
First off, thanks to @NJBadApple and @Noble for taking a chance on me and getting me started here.
Thanks for the good times my first season and onward, now former Knights @CFJ @Briedaqueduc @Jiggly_333
Thank you everyone in the Knight's discord that has helped me along the way @Zoone16 @Katth @goldenglutes @Jepox @JSS @micool132 @ml002 @ImShiny
Thanks to the Syndicate for taking me in @Velevra @Kylrad and thanks for the camaraderie @SDCore @nykonax @BDonini @shutdown @chetib
Also thanks to everyone else that's helped me out (sorry I'll probably forget some): @Gwdjohnson @SecondSucks22 @aaronwilson @slothfacekilla @Flareon @Tomen @StamkosFan @WannabeFinn @SlashACM
RE: S51 WFT #1 - Giving Thanks - LarksTongue - 12-01-2019
I am thankful for everyone in the SHL for maintaining this unique hockey experience because when all is said and done we all came together because we love hockey. And special thanks to both @FlappyGiraffe @BarnabasCollins for taking a gamble on me.
RE: S51 WFT #1 - Giving Thanks - bana - 12-01-2019
I know I've been disconnected and distanced from the league and site over the last quite a few years. There was a post where I was considered a comment/post whore and was battling it out with Abdeezy for top posts on the old forums. I loved this league. I mean, i still like it and like it more and more the further along I am in Fujisawa's career. I'm mostly just thankful for my Panthers team, @Wasty for believing in me and my player and those who run the league to make sure the wheels keep on moving in the right direction.
YEP YEP.
RE: S51 WFT #1 - Giving Thanks - Tomasnz - 12-01-2019
Going to give thanks first off to @Acsolap for bringing me into this game. Thanks dude. Loving it still.
Then to my first team mates as a rookie who got be addicted. @Weretarantula @BadWolf @Jenny @ej27 @Mac and then a bunch of IAs who I miss.. and also all my anchorage boat buddies.
The entire s46 draft class but especially my goalie buddies, only three and a half of us left I think... @chetib @Fluw @oddly_colored_beef also to @Carpy48 who is kinda an honorary s46er in the goalie discord, big thanks to everyone in there!
Then a big thanks to all my Manhatten mates, way to many to mention so I will just call out @JayWhy for building a great bunch and @Citizen of Adraa and @ImShiny for being my draft Day newbie buddies.
Also thankful for shl dad's @Wasty and @thiefofcheese
Been lovely to see all of these and read them. Very thankful for @hotdog
RE: S51 WFT #1 - Giving Thanks - RaiN - 12-01-2019
This thanksgiving I am thankful for the hard work that @Tomen has put in as well as other league members with the whole Scoring/Passing manipulation.
Without you guys, we're unable to continue this beautiful league we all know and love.
Thank you.

I`m sure there is some pretty interesting comments on here but I`m going to go very corny with my response. I'm thankful for the great people of the SHL. I can literally not show up around here and be a first round bust, and yet, they still enjoy having you on their team and are willing to always help out, best page on the interwebs right here folks!
RE: S51 WFT #1 - Giving Thanks - Rindiee - 12-01-2019
I am thankful for all the friends I have met since being on this site. From my OG Buffabro's with Quick Mafs, to my new brothers in Lethbridge! You are all special to me in your own ways :,)

Last and definitely least I'm thankful for @Darkened_Rose_16 for showing me that forever is only as good as ones options. I loved you and you threw it all away for some cash and attention.
now i know tensions are high...

I mostly keep to myself so I am thankful for the two locker rooms that have made the shl like a second home to me.

Big thanks are going out to @artermis who drafted me as his very first SMJHL Draft pick back in S30 and showing me the ropes of the SHL. Same goes to @RomanesEuntDomus who probably was even more involved in showing me the way around the site.
@WannabeFinn @Ballerstorm @Raven for being my mentors in my very first SMJHL season.
All the S31 people from discord: @ztevans @Pris @Rabidsponge21 @InciteHysteria @JKortesi81 @Grapehead @Waters @grimreaper @Wally @twils @bozzz @Avakael @Gooney @Toivo @tweedledunn @ThatDamnWalrus @Boomcheck @Zoone16
Special thanks to @ThatDamnWalrus for trading up to #2 overall to select me to Buffalo. @Brandon
@Insayne for trying to reach out for me when I was gone.
@WannabeFinn for not trading my player and giving me the Co-GM position and all the nice talks we have about SHL and the world.
And sooo many more who I have had positive interactions with!
RE: S51 WFT #1 - Giving Thanks - Blastmeaway - 12-01-2019
