PLAYER PROMPT

I selfishly think that records add another dimension to the league which make it worth sticking around as an individual.  I appreciate all the effort put into manually tracking certain records and the analytics tool for poking around.

My player is historically important because of how much history he has seen.  He should have the shots blocked record by now since the folks ahead are all inactive and only had a small margin going into this season.  I may break into the top 5 for hits, but I don't think I can catch Kvalheim who is still active.  I own two franchise records for Winnipeg (hits and blocks) even with the storied history of the team.

However, much of that comes from pure stubbornness.  I learned today that I am 3rd all time for games played (assuming regular season only).  I think I've only made the final once and, unless a miracle happens, I don't think I will pick up a Challenge Cup before I get too old for someone to roster me.  I've only ever had a single nomination for a player award and did not win it.  I have just played a lot of games, some of it at a 2k peak level.

I would love to make it into the hall of fame, but I don't know that staying power will be enough.  At this point, I should do some research to find out how close I am to the actual record for most games played and how far behind me the next active players are (after Kvalheim).
