I left the SHL many moons ago. I was burned out on PTs. I was tired of grinding away a whole season for my player to barely improve. Updating through forum posts had grown tedious. There was some cross league drama.

It was a long time ago, though. I'm older and wiser now. You've grown too. You've got a portal that will do the dirty work on updating. You've moved on from Simon T - that's really intriguing. So while I would say I'm trying the new SHL out, I would also say I'm letting the new SHL try me out, too.

I wouldn't mind a little more success this time around. I don't think my previous player won anything worth mentioning. I think I might have lost three SHL finals. Probably not some sort of record, but whew, losing like that gets old. I don't think I earned a single individual accolade, SMJHL or SHL. It would be nice to get an All-Star mood nod or something. I'm not going to hold my breath for an award, but I'm not going to say I'd be unhappy with one.

I'd like to contend for the goal scoring title in my peak seasons. Winning it would be grand, but being up there in the mix of it would be fun too.

I've always said one of team success or personal success is enough to keep me happy, so I'd like to either get drafted to a rebuilding team that will let me play a lot during that process, or a contender where I'll only get a few minutes a night, but will at least get some team glory.
