It's been an off-season of upheaval in Moscow. With a heavy heart we said goodbye to two iconic Moscow players in captain Nate Telker @Telkster and franchise goalie and future Hall of Famer Raymond Bernard @Mr_Hatter who both led us to the conference finals before retiring. With another former alternate captain Oskar Lagesson @fever95 becoming an unfortunate casualty of the cap following our many off-season moves, it's the end of an era in a way, as those 3 were our last links to the S70 Continental Cup win.
In fact, when the dust settled on our off-season dealings, no players remained on the Menace with more than 3 seasons of service in Moscow. Therefore, a new leadership group is on order!
C - Alex Letang @Spartan
A - Mikko Lahtinen @Beketov
A - Pietro Angellini @okifenoki
The names almost picked themselves. Our oldest-serving player and head scout/unofficial AGM Letang, 2-time MVP and face of the franchise Lahtinen, and one of the biggest draft steals in living memory and ultimate Moscow hypeman (title shared with @GrittyIsKing09) Angellini. Congratulations to you all and let's celebrate the end of the S70 era by scaling those heights again!
