I will update this every time I interview a GM Smile

I was lucky enough to catch up with HAM GM, Raymond Lindsay.

Interview

Hey Ray, a moment of your time please?

Sure, but make it quick!

Okay, will do! Are the Steelhawks done making moves, or are you guys still active in the trade and free agency markets?

No, but we're looking at possible ways to improve our team still.

Fantastic! How do you feel that you did in the draft? Did you address all possible needs?

I think we did great at the draft. We picked up a great player [Wagner], then got a steal at 10 [Jamie Rose]. In the 2nd, we got 2 solid defenseman in Viola and Lange. We didn't adress all our needs, we still need some more forwards.

I agree, I do like some of those moves! Lange was an absolute steal. Moving on, any possible trades going down at the moment?

No.

Uh...okay then! Lastly, how well do you feel the Steelhawks will do next season? Last place again or are you guys geared for a playoff run?

We were only two points out of a playoff spot last year. We're a young team and we'll only get better so I expect that we'll finish 3rd in the conference

As you guys can tell, the Steelhawks are one of the SHL's brightest young teams! Thank you for your time, Ray!

Shut up

I also caught up with Nathan D'Angelo, Calgary's GM after his wedding ceremony with Roberto Martucci.

Hey *****, can I ask you a couple questions?

Make it quick, I just took a Viagra and it's gonna be kicking in soon!

Alright then...Any possible FA or trade moves in Calgary?

We'd obviously like to get Crasher or Hockridge signed, we have put on offers but nothing is official. As for trades, we are pretty much done on the trade front, unless a player wants out for whatever reason.

Calgary is full of overpaid scrubs. I'd want out if I were drafted by you guys! Great choice naming Reggie Williams Co-GM! What happened to Waldo Cezar, however?

To be honest I'm not 100% sure. I'm sure he's been busy with real life. He did a fantastic job, but I guess it's just time to move on. He's always welcomed back onto the team though.

I think he left cause you went Sandusky on him in the locker room. Just what I've heard though. With Aidan Richan having a year left on his deal, what do you guys plan on doing with him? Are you looking at possible trades or are you working on a long term extension?

I'd love to sign him long term, we always loved him here, and he'll be a huge part of our team for years to come if he does sign. If he tells us the best choice is to trade him, then we might have to consider it, rather than lose him for nothing.

I could take him or leave him honestly. Nothing special. Reminds me of a male Alec Moose. You guys passed on your 5th Round pick last night. Why was that?

I'm a lazy bum, and didn't feel like sifting through players.

What do you guys feel that you are missing to make a run at the Challenge Cup?

I feel like all we are missing is a top defenseman. I think we'll have a great chance if we could fill that spot.

You guys would still suck ass if you signed Scott Stevens and Erik Chisling man. Who do you think will represent the East and who will represent the West in the Cup next season?

I'm going to say it will be the Chiefs, and hopefully us, but I think for sure it will be between us and the Panthers again.

I'm going to say the only thing Calgary will represent is where all the homosexual players play. I guess that's a good thing though, you guys will be signing Rashad Thomas and Kanye Summers once their current contracts expire. Maybe Brodie Witzel as well. I'm on the fence about him. Is he a dumbass homosexual, or just a dumbass? Anyways, lastly; any truth to the rumor of Cam Wilson leaving Calgary once his deal is up to join the Vancouver Nightmare?

Hopefully not, he seems to love it here, and we love him. He is a huge part of our team and it would be awful to lose him to free agency.

I see. Alright, thanks for your time. I can see that Viagra is kicking in already so you better get out of here!

Suck my dick, Bob.

I think we all know that Roberto [Martucci] has that one covered. Later!

Queers. Hate 'em.
