Awe was hoping for another day off

Day off #1 starts tomorrow. Happy and excited for days off. Been feeling strangely tired lately and all of that. Don't got much to say and want it over with, so let's blab. Playoffs have started and Toronto is up 2-0 on LA. Go Toronto go! Davos is losing 2-0 to Warsaw which is surprising for probably all including Warsaw. Gustav's final season. Would make sense for him to get shafted and go out with a 3-0 sweep, lol. Isabella Campbell's career is soon to be over. Wish I could say I've enjoyed her career but this is one of the first VHL players where I actually didn't really enjoy it at all. She had an okay career but never anything super incredible. I guess 3 seasons of 88, 99 and 94 aren't too bad but she just wasn't the MVP I wanted and was a good 2nd line depth piece. Flip side, I am happy and excited with Mikhail Kovalchuk and he has done well so far with the Houston Bulls. Due to lowering the TPE limit, he will be skipping the VHLM draft and will be heading into the VHLE for a short time. Not gonna lie, I'd much rather play another season in the M than play in the E at all. I'm hoping I can earn enough TPE to skip it entirely. Good luck in the playoffs, VHL. Enjoy your week.

yay and no

Well, I've said it quite a few times but I'll say it again because of how proud I am of the work we've done and the group we've got. 12 seasons in a row of contention. 7 finals. 5 cups. We took S80 off to rebuild and posted a record of 20-40-12 with only Toronto doing worse than us (surprise). This season, we made some big moves, had a very interesting/busy/challenging off-season, but managed to check the box on everything we needed and it turned out to be pretty damn good. Regular season came to an end yesterday and we ended the season with a record of 46-21-5... which is crazy to think that last season we just started a rebuild. Now I know with players retiring and all of that we have some challenges ahead of us, but for now, let's focus on what a great season we just had and do a quick little review so I can earn +6 capped for my media spot and use up the +6 uncapped we got from the Christmas stuff! Seattle Bears Season additions: Venus Thightrap - 50G, 68A, 118P (Trade) Luke Thornton - 38G, 42A, 80P (Trade) Justin Lose - 72G, 70A, 142P (FA) Phoenix Dawson - 25G, 92A, 117P (Trade) Gunnar Odinsson - 54G, 55A, 109P (FA) Zeedayno Chara - 22G, 86A, 108P (Trade) Sven Eightnine (R) - 17G, 36A, 53P (Call Up) Em Em Flex (R) - 39-20-5, .918SV%, 3.25GAA (Call up) I don't know about you, but them are some nice additions and they all came at good costs for the team to focus on now and then. I won't go too much more into it but excited to see the award show, you know? Now for some players... Justin Lose @youloser1337 What a rocket of a season. 72 in 72. He had more points this season than his last 2 combined with the Riga Reign.. His Plus/Minus from this season also wipes out every season of negative value from his Riga PAIN days... Thanks for coming to Seattle. You've been amazing as a player, member and person. We're lucky to have you! Gunnar Odinsson @BOOM Well, crazy how FA went. I think for a bit I thought we were getting you, then all of a sudden that changed at the VHL draft, then you messaged all the GM's, I was the only one to respond (surprise x2) and then all of a sudden things changed again. It disappoints me you chose to retire. Not because of greed. You be happy and enjoy your players. You just had a really strong season, your career really could have ended well and we really liked having you around. I hope Seattle was good to you and you enjoyed your time and would come back one day! Zeedayno Chara @Jubis Another career high guy but he spent his whole time with NYA. Similar to Lose, he erased all of his negative values for plus/minus too from his time with NYA. Assist per game, 345 shots as a dman and overall an amazing blue liner for us. Venus Thightrap @BladeMaiden Happy you came back to Seattle. While you were around, you were an amazing person and Bear in the LR. Great ending to your career. Luke Thornton @Jtv123 Well, our second trip together and I'd say it went pretty damn well. Maybe your next one comes here too? I should have joked about you not getting a hit in the final game... you were even on hitting lines with hitting strats to help you out.... 1,999... Em Em Flex @oilmandan Good season for you, man. 39-20-5 as a rookie goalie is pretty damn good and the rest of the stats are too considering the high scoring it feels like we just had. Keep earning that TPE.. do YO TASKS. Let's do this EMEMFLEX. Sigard Petrenko @SlapshotDragon I know the start feels slow, but you're playing a good part and you've been amazing in the locker room. We're very lucky to have you and experience your "team first" attitude and patience as you help push the team forward. Looking at your stats, an improvement in everything and overall, you push forward. With the right development and traits, next year is yours to BREAK OUT OF THE CAGE. Vinny Detroit @the boat Alright, a name change. Threw me for a loop there. The Seattle Bears captain and a strong, loyal voice in the locker room that adds an enjoyable presence and tone. I really tried to help you out with hits again while maintaining everyone else's stats and I don't think people realize how tough that can be. One wrong turn and you slow down Justin Lose, or Chara, or Venus etc... but we got it done while helping literally everyone out this season.. You finished with 3 more hits this season than last too (342). 1,520 more and you tie the lead for all-time Bears.. should only take 4.5 more seasons?? Sven Eightnine @BarzalGoat I have nothing good to say after the Islanders and the Refs beat the Oilers, hehe. Hell of a rookie campaign for a Dman.. I'm happy to FINALLY have one of your players on the Bears.. You're gonna have a very strong career for the Bears.. maybe HoF??? Keep pushing man! LETS GO BEARS!! Phoenix Dawson @Toast We swapped you to D and you exploded even more it felt like... Thanks for coming back to Seattle.. Get your ass back on now and start earning some TPE I'm just over 900 words so might as well NOT use my free week from donations next week (fuck) and blab a little bit more so I can get two weeks out of this. Honestly, not a bad thing. The Free Week would have messed up getting the Bears press conference out so that's okay! Bana Blabs are occasionally fun too. Looking back on the season, it was challenging but rewarding for sure. Everyone had fun in the locker room and we really have a unique, amazing and loyal group here. I really think they're something special and if they stick with it and stick together, they have strong chances at chasing many cups together. Thank you to all you Bears from an amazing season and for all your work to help me and us get to where we are right now. I'm grateful for each of you. CHEERS! 1,068 words Dec 27-Jan 2 Jan 3-Jan9

Hedge with STHS: https://youtu.be/YersIyzsOpc

Seems like the sim engine is the problem. Bad for 6 seasons on Riga, good the moment they leave. STHS must have consistently sucked for 6 seasons and then just changed its mind. The years have made you sour, little hedgehog! Excited for the series @WranglersSuck. Always good!

Now… #FireBerocka

Thank you for your time and the talks over the seasons. I’ve enjoyed my time on Davos and have tried to hype purple when I can. Let’s do some damage these playoffs!

Literally zero of an issue, son.

He forgot about @youloser1337 RIP. MR GOALZ (71G, 70A, 141P). #Bana4GMOTYRunnerup

@samx

HO! HO! HO! It makes me a little sad that Christmas is over. I know the hype is huge from everyone about it but man, it's honestly the best time of year. The music is festive, it's beautiful and so many more people seem happy, cheery and kind! the presents and all the giving (FOOD) is also super nice. Little sad it's over.. New Years is coming and I don't really ever do anything for it. It's just another day. NEW CALENDAR DAY! I also don't do New Years Resolutions. Shouldn't need a day to do something (whatever you choose) like that. Do it now. don't wait for then. Don't a majority of them fail anyway? I see how it's fun and all that. New year, new me... look out world! Now, let's bana blab. I got some sweet stuff for Christmas. A bunch of smaller things and then my 3 main bigger gifts were an ice fishing bag to hold all my rods, an underwater fishing camera (wooo) and a pretty sweet but confusing telescope that we set up tonight and I'm starting to learn. I got my girlfriend a lot too - bath bombs, candles, shower scentsy things, charmed aroma (they're so fun!), a couple cook books and some other things. Her two main big gifts was this Ninja Foodi 11 in 1 machine... it air fries, pressure cooks, slow cooks and 8 other things... we tried it out and it's amazing.. so we have a pressure cooker and slow cooker if anyone wants to buy for cheap and her biggest gift was a kitchen aid mixer and it's also amazing. She loves it and has been wanting one... I love the colour too as it kinda matches our walls (pistachio). Bears doing good. 42-19-5 is pretty good for us considering the rebuild last season and all of that. It's been a lot of fun with this group and a lot of player have had career seasons. I'm slowly gaining on 1,300 wins in my GM career too which is pretty crazy. It feels like just yesterday I was sitting at 900-1,000. My player is doing okay. 82 points in 62 games or something like that. Pretty good for an undrafted D-man in the VHLM. Doing everything in my power to skip the VHLE. Don't draft me early, okay?? Also VHL. Don't do it. I'm pulling a Spartan minus being the best player hands down, lmao.

“Temporary suspension of his gm job in Las Vegas". Wow what the f. I know that what I did wasn't right but come on. I worked my ass off and spent so much time everyday in the VHL since I joined just to work my way up to being a GM.” On multiple accounts, running multiple players. Some of which played for you. This multi thing keeps getting better and better. WHO IS NEXT?

Takeaway: So we don't want anymore members than we have right now, right? There's nothing wrong with massive recruitment as long as the recruitment to an extent can be sustainable, with player creations/recreates and retirements/cycles being sustainable which they always find a way to generally be/shift. The more the merrier, ho, ho, ho.
