  1. It is with great pleasure to announce StevenStamkos91 as the Bern Royals' new Assistant General Manager. He has shown interest in the position early on, and with the season now over, it's time to start making some more changes in Bern. I have great faith in him and I'm sure we'll work together to put on a competitive team for next season and beyond. Congratulations!

  3. Friendly rivals Olynick and Salo congratulate each other on their first playoff series against each other. The long awaited playoff run to the Founder's Cup Finals came to a screeching halt when the Bern Royals lost in 6 against an all-around powerhouse Yukon Rush. Lead by the stellar play of Kimmo Salo and the ensemble of Konstantin Azischenkov, Johan Hallstrom, Bennet Wahl, and Kai Randal, the visibly-fatigued and mentally worn out Bern Royals put up a respectable effort against the Rush, but it just wasn't enough. Starting off the playoffs with a heart-pounding 6 game series against the Turku Outlaws, the team that dominated all throughout the regular season suddenly fell back down to Earth in an effort to put away a fast Outlaws team. It took 2 shutout efforts by Blaine Olynick, followed by 2 more 5-2 victories for the Royals to advance. Doubt had begun to settle in the minds of Royals' fans that the team that were in front of them the last 6 games couldn't put up a fight against the Rush that swept the Gladiators. In an effort to boost up offensive play for next season, Royals GM Alex Staal dealt their first round pick this year for Turku's 3rd rounder and physical two-way forward Azi Ali. With the departure of Ron World Peace imminent for next season, there will be a huge hole in the offensive power that the Royals are known for.
  4. The New Jersey Devils are proud to select centerman Jean Beliveau.
  5. Accepted. With World Peace on his way out, we need a new offensive anchor and I believe Ali has proven himself as a player and a member to make the step to a first line forward in the VHLM. We welcome him to Bern with open arms. EDIT: This is also my first trade as a GM. Big thanks to Metis for making the negotiations go smoothly.
  6. Congrats to the Rush. Proud of my Royals going in to the playoffs. Let's do it again next season.
  7. This is the troll post for the Pajodcast, isn't it?
  8. The PP has been nonexistent for both teams.
  9. I want to shoot one out by tonight, and if not, tomorrow night. Depending on the amount of Q's I have. Thanks guys

  11. I got the feeling that there would be some players left over.
  12. If I'm part of the goalie group that has no place to be, I'll be more than willing to exclude myself from competition.
  13. Can't even buy liquor yet. Bern just dick-teased Turku and left halfway while they were getting ready to fuck.
  14. I'll fuckin reck u Salo u betr watch urself
  15. He said the coffee thing about his gimmick was a spur of the moment thing and it stuck ever since. Sucks that he isn't on TV as often as a heel lackey. He was pretty good at that.
