As a SHL GM, how do you view the IIHF? Do you consider it an asset that builds value to the site or something that could be lost with no repercussions?

I don't think you've GMed a SMJHL team, but weigh in on what the differences are. If you had to choose a long-term job, would it be SHL or SMJHL and why?

You've had some of the best players the site has ever known on your team. How do we get their payer pages back? How do we get their update threads back?

Why do we start @ 155 TPE? To combat TPE inflation/soft regression, do you see the league changing this?

I think the IIHF is an asset to the league. It adds another dimension that members can look forward too. The one issue it seems to have is people don't really know when its happening or the schedule it uses. It needs to be laid out and made clear when qualifications are happening, when it's the round robin, and so on.

I haven't GMed in the SMJHL. If I had to pick one, it's the SHL of course. There is quite a bit of difference. In the SMJHL you have to prioritize draft picks more and also rely on send downs. It's not easy to run a Junior team I would think. You don't get the privilege of watching the draftees for a season to see who's active, you have to do a lot of due diligence to find the right members so early in their careers. If you happen to draw the short end of the stick send down wise, your behind the eight ball to teams who got 2 lines of send downs. You're also the first line of communication for the new members. The Junior GMs need to make things as easy for them as possible so that they stay. It's a tough gig.

We start at 155 TPE because we're not a point task driven league and we wanted to give the members a starting off point to build a player the way they wanted them to play in the sim. You could start at 0 and there will still be members who work super hard to grab TPE at every turn. You can keep changing the system and those people will still exist.
