i was expecting pinli to get in a fight at some point. it may still happen, but he's a short enough guy with a short enough fuse that i could imagine a bad loss and a couple of "short king" comments would get him throwing punches

I was really hoping for my player to be a better scorer / get a better +/- in my final year down in the J. I did some minor reallocation to try and shoot better but my numbers only went up marginally Falcons

I did not expect Squidwardo Tentacles to manage to break a point per game this season, after only putting up 42 points last season it was a welcome surprise to put up 52 assists and 69 points this season!

I didn't really expect Hamilton to compete for the worst record in the league. I knew we wouldn't be great, but we've got a long way to go be good.

Something that happened this season that I didn't expect was getting traded. Due to some cap issues, Toronto was forced to trade me midseason. All love for the folks in Toronto, stuff happens.

The thing that I didn't expect to happen is that Graj actually managed to outscore himself from last season by a decent margin, with less TPE. He now needs only 15 points next season to hit 1000 for his career.

I didn't really expect to get a star during a game, but there it was, discussion in the locker room not long after we changed goalies, Josie Cas gets a star and I was so proud. Im excited for my future in the SHL. Truly inspiring moments,

Unjustified , unexplained, underrated.

I'm something around like 5 points every 6 games, which I did not expect. I thought i'd be kinda useless and just around but I'm doing quite well which is nice!

I felt that Mumei over preformed this season. Who put out 58 points in 66 games. The Grizzlies only had two players that didn’t have a negative +/- or zero, Mumei was one of them.

I didn't expect Derek to close out the season like an absolute bum. Off to a red hot start, then a pretty cool middle of the season, then more red hot to kind of close out the season..... up until the final two days where he just decided to not really do much, upsetti confetti.

For some reason, my player stopped being the bad guy of ice hockey this season, at least relatively stopped compared to the past few seasons, which is I guess a positive for the team, but does lower my chances on that nice PiM throphy

I didn't expected the big drop the team had since the 4th week of sim. I don't recognize my team anymore... Went from the top 5 defensive teams to being close to not be in the top 10.

I was surprised that Montreal did as well as they did. I expected them to be in the bottom three again. I also did not expect them to get 24 wins.

I thought I would be a top 10 player this season but unfortunately, I didn't build as good of a player as I thought. Luckily, I was top 20 and I'm very excited for next season!

I expected to finally have a breakout season for Spiff but 40 goals, 81 points, and 4th in the league in shots was more than I imagined. Shoutout to my linemates Clarence Worley and Hotdog Lunch for similar breakout seasons.
