Surely the most surprising event in SHL history for me would be the day that Tomen came back from a long period of inactivity. I think many people had begun to fear for the worst to be honest. When I was hired to Buffalo prior to Season 37, Tomen had already been inactive for a while. I actually wasn’t sure whether to keep his player around for the rebuild. I did end up putting his player on the block on more than one occasion, but thankfully nobody took me for a ride lol. He was young enough of a player that regression wasn’t a concern and his production was welcome on a team starved of talent. Right as his player began to enter regression and the majority of our prospects from the rebuild were getting called up, Tomen made the SHL world’s most miraculous comeback. It took me probably less than a day before I realized I needed to make him my co-GM asap. The rest is history.
