I didn't have very high expectations for my player. Fred Wanesly made his SHL debut with a lot lower TPE than I was hoping him to start with. And then you pair that with being on a brand new expansion team! With all that, though, I was pleasantly surprised with how the season turned out. The extra playing time brought on by such a new and relatively inexperienced team probably contributed to that more it hurt it. I also think I can attribute some of the goodness that came out of this season to the strong defensive built my GM has guided me towards. I believe keeping Fred Wanesly more defensively strong as he grows is a good idea, as he won't be out on the ice as a liability for the team all the time. And everyone knows that a good offense starts with a good defense.. I am definitely looking forward to the next season.


Here is a terrible idea for a playoff bracket: You don't do the 12 team playoff, but instead you use 13 teams. For the first round, the #2 and the #3 seeds play each other, the #4 and #5 seeds play each other, the #6 and #7 seeds play each other, and so on... But the #1 seeded team gets a bye all the way until the finals. This way it becomes a sort of battle royale to see who will play the number one seed in the finals. I call it the "If you ain't first, you're last royal rumble playoffs format".





This is an easy one. For the SHL it is obviously the Seattle Argonauts. "Why?" you ask? I'll tell you why. The Argonauts sail on a great ship, and that ship is friendship. A team full of great fellas who are just real pals. Fun times are had every day by the members of that team. And for the SMJHL, well, it's obviously the Detroit Falcons. What's that? You think I'm stuck in my glory days of the near unstoppable S53 championship run? Well you are plain WRONG! The Falcons are still filled with talent and a group of great guys that are just fun to hang out with.
