@iRockstar You make me proud. Good day to get this done. Don't forget draft tonight... T-Minus like.. 6 hours.

Understandable for the second part. But we should change the above. Starting = 105 for max carryover, not 75. Let's truly make it 75 Carryover + 30 starting.

@Will What are the chances of us getting this together somehow on the portal or on the site (like we have for players. Career stats, most wins, most goal categories etc). I'm honestly surprised this isn't a thing and think it would be great thing to have in the HoF section too for the portal. See where you stack up against other GM's and may have new guys a little interested in maybe becoming a GM one day too to crush some organization records. I don't think it would be really too hard to do. Figure out who was GM when and where and add the shit up. If whoever is in charge is feeling lazy, get GM's to pile up their stats and pay them or pay someone else to do the job.. say a free week to do it? @Beketov I'm aware of my stats, for the most part. I think, if not mistaken, I'm missing a piece of a season where Mike disappeared. Be cool to see where you line up overall against all GM's, and then individually for a given team (Where I rank for Seattle etc).

Always thought this.. and agreed. Shouldn't count the initial 30 TPE. The carryover cap is 75. The starting 30 isn't "carryover". I also agree with the banking of the carryover TPE. Just let us apply it.

Good change! Will be posting after the draft for the new guys!

Seattle offers S61: 7M S62: 6M *player option Bonus: disclosed privately, along with a signing bonus which will affect S61 Cap - $2,000,000. @BluObieZ Talks in PM. Come on over, good looking.

I'll add you to the LR either way, sweetheart.

But 2 goalies are replacing them tbh and Brody is still young-ish and #1 in Davos. No?

So firstly, I know, I know. Where art thou, or whatever, Speculatoria. It's called I worked all week in the blistering hot sun, then proceeded to have my sisters birthday Friday, then drank my face off Saturday. Here we sit, Sunday, with zero motivation and only the urge to make myself another coffee and dig into the ham pepperoni sticks that my girlfriend bought a few days ago that I only discovered yesterday whilst chugging liquor. Today, we got the Free Agency market opening up, so Seattle of course threw in a couple bids and likely will have more to come to keep our newcomers happy and have them playing on a little stronger of a team (and by little we mean, rolling with them 30 TPE inactives). Next, we have the draft tonight - so as you can see, it's going to be a fairly busy, yet exciting day if you're a manager in this league. What's more exciting for me is that finally, I get to recreate and make some new players that will bring in the rebuild 100% for Seattle. Yes, those rape trades only brought it in 99%. So the question for me is, what are we going to recreate as? 1. A goalie and that's if Seattle doesn't take Sterling or Aamo in the draft. Sterling is our #1 choice on the board. He's a huge member, contributor and blah blah. It's fucking @Will, okay? Enough said. On the flip side, Daniel has proven he hungry this go around, but as he even stated, this is his 2nd active player heading into a draft and he has had more players than I have toes. Speaks volume, speaks risk - so it'll be nice to see where he goes. Seattle? Toronto? Possibly Riga? Either way, I see him doing well, just stick with it. So for me to recreate as a goalie, both these players would have to be off the board and a d-man would also have to be on the team I'd imagine. The way I see it, next year I can always draft my other, other player in a later round as a goalie as 99% of teams will have a goalie then. Smart, huh? 2. D-man. You can never go wrong with recreating your GM player as a d-men. They're hard to come by and you control what he becomes. You can be the team stud on the blue line or you can be that depth guy if you already have the stud. This could be the case of @street Samuel Gate goes 1st overall to the Seattle Bears. I'd team up with him on the back end, knowing all-to-well what kind of player he's going to become and I can sit back, be that effective depth guy and once I hit a certain point, bank that TPE to fight shit off come the end of my career. The more I think of this plan, the more I like it. 3. A center. Like D-men, this one makes sense too... UNLESS.. Seattle takes @Victor Poddy Cast 1st overall.. Or 4th? or 8th? or 14th? Even if we did, would it hurt to do the same thing we would maybe with Gate at #1? Maybe we could create a secondary centre to Victor and again, control the depth and have a solid, lower piece hanging out on the second line. OR, maybe just maybe, we grab Thompson @Beketov and we become the middle man for him. He scores, I pass. I shoot, he gets the rebound and scores. That kinda shit entices me also. 4. A winger. Wouldn't mind doing winger and this could be the case if Cast comes to Seattle and then we pick up say @pennypenny or Sterling at 4th overall. Then again, could 8th overall also determine what's going to happen? If it was going to be a winger, he's heavily going to be aggressive on the scoring side - though, a pass first guy makes sense too as everyone else in this league doesn't know how to. Gotta get that 99 SC, 40-80 PA. 600+ words, +6 for Forsberg

Well thats a given rule though. Clearly you can't claim TPE on a new player which was earned prior to his creation. #LetMeRecreateTonight

Seattle offers: S61: 7M S62: 3M Read the PM. Come with us, oh mighty, graphic god. @solas

Welcome back, man.

Hmm, fair enough. Would there be any harm in maybe backing it up a little bit? Say the day after the draft or something? That way we get the excitement from the draft one day and then boom, recreates the next. Constant flow of activity and shit to watch and be excited for, hehe.

fyi, +2 Federov. fight that regression for HSK you lazy bitch

I've never understood why it was pushed so far off that you can't retire until way, way into the off-season in order to keep your player and shit? Is it to hold off on gaining that extra little bits of TPE? Maybe something to do with carry over? The players, once off-season, won't be thrown into the draft. Trade deadline is the cut-off for that cute shit, right? I'm excited and can't control the enthusiasm on creating two new players.. it's already the off-season, been the off-season for a while, and I still have to wait until next Thursday. Let me write some shit and get it going. I was always going to wait until after the draft because 1 of the 2 players at least will be coming to Seattle as a GM player. Thus, I need to sorta know what I draft so that I can create based off team needs. However, not every player is like this obviously. If it's not such a huge deal, why not move the date a little bit back and put it after the draft? This livens things up a little bit. Right after the draft, excitement is high and eyes are on, throw the ability for people to recreate right after the draft and still hold their players in the draft. Literally the same thing but as of now, 4 to 5 days earlier. I want to get all my ducks in a row, cure my excitement on making this new player or two and get the ball rolling. Thoughts??

That makes me really happy. Missed you as a member!

That's why I see Riga being smart enough to steal him 3rd before I do so 4th. ? Hes the only, 110% guarantee goalie in the draft. Likely HoF is all pans out and easily has huge TPE gains. Smart for Riga to snap him up or I won't mind doing so. @hedgehog337

Quebec has Arthur tbh. Seattle won't take a goalie 1st OV. Or will they????

Riga would be smart to grab Sterling in my eyes. The one, 100% solid goalie who is likely to lead a HoF and very dominant career. The backbone to a team and obviously going to be an extremely loyal guy.

Congrats everyone!!

Hey it's you!
