SHL GM Admiral of the Data Seas The storied franchise that is about to get more numbers added to the rafters. Lets get started
This first player is one who is long overdue. Someone who was the backbone of New England throughout the S50’s and S60’s. Someone who dedicated their entire career to the Wolfpack. Drafted with the 5th OA pick in S52. This player has played all the way up to S71. Finally securing a Challenge Cup Win in S70 with the team. This player is one of 2 players to ever reach 1000 games played with the franchise, and is currently the leader in most games played in a New England Wolfpack jersey. In 1090 games with the team, as a defensemen, this player has scored 156 goals, 436 assists for 592 points. Leading all defensemen in the franchise in points. And 7th in total points by the franchise. He also had 1734 shots blocked to go along with it, also leading the franchise. In terms of personal achievement, this player like I stated above has won the Challenge Cup with this team in S70. He also got 2nd All Star team in S62, Scott Stevens Nomination in S62. And a 3rd all star team in S61. He leads the franchise in points by a defensemen, this user trusted me to take over New England. And trusted in my vision to get the team a Challenge Cup. Very grateful he stuck with the team, and remains a New England Legend. Welcome to the team’s HOF, Sven Yxskaft! @kenvald The 2nd player to be inducted today comes from a different background. Someone who just recently retired. He is that much of a legend that we have to induct him this early. A franchise legend of the late S60’s and early S70’s. This player was originally drafted to Edmonton with the 24th OA pick in S59. Someone who wasn't originally with New England. However, as Edmonton faced a rebuild, we traded for him in S66. Knowing we are starting to get out of our own rebuild, Tater bought into our vision of the team. And for that he was rewarded. Peaking with 110 points in S68. Tater was a juggernaut with New England. With only 594 games played for the franchise. He scored 347 goals, 384 assists for 731 points. Good for 3rd in the franchise for points ever. The backbone of New England during the cup runs. Tater rose to the occasion. With a plethora of accolades. Including but not limiting to a Jeff Dar nomination in S67. The Sarmad Khan Nomination in S68. And the first New England player to win the Ron Mexico Award for MVP since Johannes Leitner in S49. Securing 1st All Star team that season as well. Winning 2 Challenge Cups with us in S70 and S74. He was also a part of the cup finals run in S72 and S75 as well. In the playoffs he stepped up as well. In 122 playoff games with the team, he scored 56 goals, 61 assists for 117 points with the franchise. Including 3 20+ point playoff runs. On a personal note. Thank you for believing in the vision for New England. And sticking with us. I am glad you were rewarded with a legendary career. Its my absolute pleasure to be inducted into the New England Hall of Fame. Makrus “The Tater” Jager @taterswc

Two great users, congrats!

It was a long ride with plenty of ups and downs. Spanning many IRL years. Being in NEW was an incredible introduction to sim leagues. Thank you, Luke!
