Gotta give a big shout to @efischermann for bringing me into seattle, and putting together our vision on team building base. Also to @Muerto for putting on the back pack on the lines side of things. Really excited with the group we have!

These always break my heart cause I want to say nice things about as many people as possible but that will take literally forever. So I will limit myself to 3.
@Takk806 love you buddy. So glad our time has intertwined so much between Colorado, Montreal, and GMing together. 2k Beausoleil card wen? @micool132 you are the Colorado Raptors. I can’t imagine what the team would look like if we weren’t blessed with your presence daily. @cake307 I love having another SHL user living in Australia so we can bond over being the only two. Love chatting shit with you in the various discord servers we share. Maybe one day you can move to Vic and become 10x as cool. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Registered Posting Freak
I am very thankful for my teammates in Texas who have become friends, no matter where our journeys take us it is nice to know we will stay connected throughout our player careers!

@SchwarzNarr thank you for giving me a chance to work alongside you as SMJHL Co-Commish, it means a lot that you trust me with something that important.
@sköldpaddor thank you for being one of my best friends, like ever. You always are there for me and just make me feel like im not going crazy by letting me say what i need to say and offering fair judgement on it. @Frenchie milk is good. stop hating. @Rojjter go to bed, its good for you. @RashfordU @Whitecap thank you for helping me feel so welcome in Los Angeles, i joined at a really rough time in my personal life and y'all treated me like i was part of the family from day one and helped me through that rough patch. ![]() ![]() ![]() | PTS: 7 | BLK: 45 | +/-: 6 | PTS: 4 | BLK: 10 | +/-: 0 ![]() SHL GM chigan worl manager

ive never taken these seriously but maybe ill take this one seriously this one time in my shl career. i also wo nt ping anyone so they wont know i thank them:
hallsy, rotti, gabe - for bringing me to hamilton in the first place as i think the third last pick in the draft purely for locker room vibes. because of this ive found friends who i have laughed, cried, sang, and celebrated with. I can comfortably call my hamilton pals my best friends ive ever had, and they would all collectively be the best man at my wedding if i have one. the current roster - scud, segi, nuck, juni, lem, steveo, these are some players who have stuck through the roster through our rebuild, and words cannot describe the thanks i give for giving me a chance at the helm. veterans - doug, puoli, weaves - loyalty is a word thrown around a lot, but when it comes to you three, is definitely fitting. i hope that your guys presence will continue to have a lasting impact on our players. prospects and younger fellas - to name a few, ovoxo, jagg, sevrin, pyro, hetkash, mulder, ocho, daevin, puma, jimbo, jamest, gabeyd, lumo - i appreciate you guys wanting to come to hamilton. if i didnt have drafts with you guys coming here id most definitely be less optimistic about being able to steer this team through this rebuild. i know with you all waiting in the wings, we can come through this as an amazing team. new arrivals - ephenssta, runningman, belmont, leoben - thank you for taking a chance with us. salming - i appreciate you coming into the LR every day. to me, it was worth signing you tenfold for getting you to 1000 points, and i am glad we could share this milestone together with the team. I'm also gonna throw in San Francisco and badwolf for trading for my corpse and getting me my first challenge cup. That is something I won't forget despite my player being useless I think ![]() ![]() Registered Member
@Rookyi@Atheist_Caliph@cake307@jaypc8237@Popol@Takk806@Jimmysmo27@Dirty Puma Thank you so much for being there for me ! Obviously Rookyi and Dirty Puma, always a pleasure to talk to you guys, no matter if its Habs or SHL related ! Special thanks to Caliph for believing in me ! I remember when the SMJHL draft was coming up, I was sure I was going to either Colorado or Saint-Louis, and I was right!
I was so much happy ( and still am ![]() Oh and, of course, thanks Jay for drafting me ! I never really thought I would've been selected in the top 10. I did get selected 4 OA with STL, but things were different. My player got created around 10 days before the draft and I was a New-Gen. I wasn't really talking with other members ; not that I didnt wanted to, just still figuring how the league worked before doing so ! I just spoke with scouts/GM's before the J draft and that was pretty much it. Now, just before the SHL draft, things haven't really changed and when I was comparing my player to other players that went top-10 in my Draft, the first thing I noticed was that I was lacking a LOT of TPE compared to them. Lacks of money, lacks of media ? To be honest, might be both. But my point is that I wasnt expecting to get selected early into the Draft, especially knowing only 6 teams reached out to me. So getting selected 10 was a huge surprise ! Thanks so much about that ! BY THE WAY ; I did NOT forget about the interview Jay ! I KNOW it has been 20-ish days you've been waiting but the work is still in progress ! Listen, I've been Jean Mal once with STL, I didnt want that nickname in Toronto aswell okay ;-; If by March, I still haven't replied, please rename me Jean Mal okay x) Lots of love to you guys ! Im planning on winning a cup with both Saint-Louis and Toronto, and I'll do my best to make that wish a reality ! Love ya' guys ![]() ![]() Media Graders Posting Freak
Wanna thank Joe for drafting me to NOLA. Been there my whole career and feel like we are still on our way to a cup! Appreciate you Joe!

I am grateful to everyone who has believed that I can do well here. Big thanks to @froste, @pyro who booked me Knights. They made sure that my career gets started.
Thanks also to the Toronto North Stars team, who believed that I could play in the league at some point. WC: 51 ![]() ![]() Registered Not A Weeb
Just to be a little cheesey I am going to thank the gms who have taken a chance on Honza by drafting him into their organizations. @sve7en @kahri @luke @HillsHaveHats
Together that that also a thank you to the Carolina Kraken en New England Wolfpack locker rooms for welcoming me back into their homes. It's kinda funny how in terms of team drafted by Honza has been a sprititual successor to both Raven Silverwing and Rafe Ulrich who also were both drafted by the Montreal/Carolina and NEW organisations. Guess I have a type. ![]() Trading Card Team Posting Freak
wow, there are so many people that make the SHL amazing to be a part of and many more i'm just waiting to get to know. the people i share LRs with are the best. love you all! want to give a shout out to @Carpy48 and @enigmatic with whom i've been in the trading card trenches. you are awesome and incredibly talented!

Much like an actor giving one of those phony acceptance speeches at the awards ceremonies, there truly is too many people to mention and any effort to name them all will surely end in failure by excluding someone that you should have but forgot to in the moment.
And while that probably sounds like an absolute copout, especially given the folks that named me in their mPT, you're right. So, I'll name drop some of the many special people I've come across since joining the SHL. In no particular order.... @cake307, @HabsFanFromOntario, @blix900, @SouthPaw, @retuperkele, @Troy_McClure03, @Eggcracker, @MikeLiut, @Gwdjohnson..... For those that aren't mentioned, it doesn't mean that you aren't loved. Every person that I've had the pleasure of meeting and talking to, from the people who scouted me to those that I've scouted, my GMS former and current, and all of my past and present teammates.....you are all absolute legends and I wish you all a Happy Valentine's Day! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() IIHF Federation Head IIHF GM ![]() All-Star Committee Posting Freak
Valentine's Day is now gone so I can instead ping all the people i don't like instead. It's everyone. I hate all of you and I don't know what I'm still doing here.
