Okay so I dont know if this is going to happen tonight or tomorrow (depending if I can talk to a couple GMs that I have yet to have a convo with) but I am ready to make my decision on where Niklas Stryker will be playing next season.

To each of the seven teams that have made me an offer or I guess have talked to me, I have not made my decision at this point in time (7:19 PST) and I wanna talk to just a couple teams and see whats up.

I must say I am actually really sad that I did not get an offer from atleast one of these teams. But I guess they didnt make an offer because they feel they did not want me or need me. So these teams are already eliminated unless they send me an offer like now.. or something. But I guess I am thanking these GMs because my decision is very hard as it as and adding teams would only make it more difficult.

First Elimination

A team that is very very good and a team that was high up on my list but I have to start making cuts and the Rage just have not made it. A team that is probably really active but they have some members that I dont necessarily get along with and do not like. I am sure they have a good shot at the cup but I will pass at this time to play on the Rage.

Second Elimination

Yeah. I was considering them quite a bit but I really dont know anyone on this other then Dion and I havent talked to him in a very very long time. They are a team that is competing but there are simply better teams that have offered me a deal. So yeah, thanks for the offer but I am declining it.

Third Elimination

Yeah, I mean I know what your thinking right not guys seeing you are being eliminated from my rankings. I did not come into free agency saying "There is a good chance I am resigning but it is very well a possibility I dont. Other teams have made much much stronger pitches (JT did you even make one other |then "We are the best shot at the cup"?). I have spent parts of four seasons on this team and really did enjoy my time on the Chiefs, I went from being a piece in the rebuild to leaving so they could acquire some young talent to being there for three straight playoffs where I thought we had a shot at winning. I am sorry I am leaving you guys but I think its time for both to move on. Thank you for your time Chiefs and good luck in the future.

This was a very very difficult decision but I can only sign with one team. Unfortunately they did not make it, they made a pretty strong pitch and I really did want to sign here but there are stronger teams. After seeing who they had on there roster it was really appealing to me but after finding out fever didnt really post in the locker room it hurt there chances by quite a bit. I really did wanna team with him but after finding this out it wasnt worth my while. Sorry guys, I know GoB has tried acquiring me a couple times throughout my career but it just wasnt the right timing this time around. I appreciate your offer though.

Fifth Elimination

As much as the other ones hurt, this one hurts the most. I really really wanted to go here but unfortunately they could not lock up another free agent and I wasnt going to pressure them to make a trade and risk there future. I wanted to go there and join David and Brandon and be a key piece going forward but Stryker is getting older now and I want to win a cup so this wouldnt really make sense. I hope in the future I can maybe join this team but for now I will not. Sorry David but I wanna win a cup and Buffalo cant do it for me now. Sorry.

THE DECISION

These two teams were above the rest when it came to the pitch, one team sent me a huge mother fucking essay and the other flooded my inbox. Both teams are very very good, I would say one has the better goaltending, one has the better defense, and there offenses are pretty similar. I have talked to both teams and both made my decision very hard. But I think I have decided on what I will spend season twenty five with.

I will be signing with

THE TEXAS RENEGADES!!!!!!!!!!!

Yup, after the moves they have made and the signings they have made, it was clear that this team wants to win. They were not up there on my list at all come the start of free agency but after the pitch Deener made I knew I wanted to join this team. They have en excellent team that is very active and I like that. I was looking for something to spark my activity and I really hope this does it. Basically everything I requested I got from these guys. Getting a chance to join a team that has proven to be able to win was something I wanted from the start so I think I have found this in Texas.

To WKP thank you guys so much for your offer, your pitch was very good and thanks again for the flooding of my inbox. But I dont think it was the right time for me to join the team. Good luck in the future, you have a very good team but I just could not do it.
