$2 per entry on behalf of my Stars. All actives, so that'll be: 11 total players x $2 (including myself) = $22. Merry Christmas

Class act of a GM, never a bad moment speaking with you. Congrats on a heck of a GM career, congrats on everything going on in your life as well

Another trade I never anticipated making, but the last 2 off-seasons have sadly made it necessary to do. A "re-rebuild" shall we call it. @Tetricide Honestly never change who you are. One of the best in the LR, one of the easiest to talk to, and I'm sure we'll cross paths again. For now, enjoy your time with Frank in Van City, I have no doubts you'll be happy there. @Frank Another EXTREMELY easy trade talk with you, seems like I have certain GM's that I just always make trades with. Good luck to the Wolves this season

@Hogan Never, ever easy moving an amazing user and person. Not something I wanted to do but sadly felt I had to, to bring back any type of future to LA. @Banackock another deal done this off-season, let's hope these picks I got don't retire on me too or leave the league Seriously though, thanks for making it easy.

@Banackock seems to always be my trading partner at this point haha! Thank you for the very easy and smooth talks as always. @Berocka welcome back to LA! Enjoyed having your last player and cannot wait to see what we can do with this one @UghSike & @GoodLeftUndone while I know you both, don't think I've ever had the pleasure of coaching you though I've been around so long it's possible lol. Regardless, cannot wait to see what we can do on LA!

Accepted. As always, a great but bittersweet deal to make. Thank you to @Spartan for at least making the conversation simple. Never fun moving a former top 5 pick, especially with such an active and charasmatic user attached to the player, however fates were not meant to be and with alternate plans being made, LA had to make a decision that was best for both the player, and the team. Thank you so much @samx for your time in LA. While I wish I could've made it a bit better than the growing pains we've gone through, I can always appreciate sticking through to some degree. Best of luck in Moscow.

Unfortunate as I had a lot of fun as GM in the E, but obviously understand it from a logistical standpoint for the league. Goodbye VHLE, a lot of good memories

1. For all the draftees, how's it feel finally knowing your destination? And for non-draftees, what do you think of how the draft went? 2. What are you most excited for this upcoming season? 3. What is one PERSONAL expectation you are setting for yourself? 4. What are your career expectations for yourself? 5. What is one ice breaker fact about yourself not many may know? 6. What is one of your guilty food pleasures?

Ever since I took over LA, I've always prided myself on raising the jerseys of those that have given everything to this team. Their hard work, dedication and passion for the team has always been on full display, and every single jersey currently in the rafters for LA has been an example of this mentality. Today, I get to do it one more time. The user and player I am about to speak was likely the most crucial piece to our competing puzzle, which says a lot. This user always ensured they were active, engaged and focused on the common goal of trying to bring a cup to LA. This player stayed their entire career with the team, showing loyalty throughout their career even when things may have looked grim in the beginning, they seen the vision we had for the team and not only wanted to be a part of it, they wanted to be a REASON the team did what it did. @Gustav ... where do I begin? Drafted alongside current LA hall of famer @Berocka in S84, you always had the mentality of greatness. You were never hard to communicate with, and every extension presented to you, was always met with grace. You were never about yourself and Art always stood for one thing... winning games. Art did things no GM could ever anticipate, and completely broke every single 'record' in franchise history during his tenure. No matter the ask, no matter the pressure, Art was always extremely reliable, and was also easily one of the most awesome goalies to have in the playoffs. In most series, there was no doubt we had a brick wall between the pipes. I cannot thank you enough for your time in LA, and while I could only wish that we could've brought one home for you, and all of the LA lifers, I couldn't have asked for a better player and user to spend their career here. This is simply the least I can do, for leading a legacy and building a hall of fame worthy career. You deserve it all, and I can only hope we get the pleasure of crossing paths once again. CAREER MILESTONES: Career High Wins - 45 (S90) 1st In Wins (307), 1st in SV% (.925), 1st in GAA (2.52), 1st in SO (37) And that is all Thanks for reading.

Make this short & sweet. We're in the midst of a rebuild and with only two active players the choices were easy here. Our first round pick in the most recent draft "The Phantom Of The VHL" aka @Hogan will be leading us to battle! Along side him will be Olumide Anderson aka @Theory and Darko Alexander Malkovich @AColdCanadian GO LA GO!

I'm not willing to spend 10 seasons hoping the rebuild pans out. I want this thing to end sooner rather than later and I've had a lot of good, positive draft conversations thus far that I feel confident in making this swap. Thanks @Lemorse7 for the easy talks & congrats again on the promotion!

If I was ready to compete, the 2nd OA would be amazing as I'd be getting one of the best earners in the league. However, this draft is so full of amazing & top earners, I felt depth with picks made much more sense for LA this season. Thanks for the quick chat @Spartan and best of luck to Moscow this coming season

Can always respect these posts vs simply going MIA. You have been one hell of a GM and a person. Our talks were always simple, whether they went somewhere or not, you always held yourself to such a great standard as GM. Good luck with whatever life throws as you next

So you're telling me that the money I've been sending Josh to help with "league improvements" has just gone to this embezzlement scheme? Gosh darn it!

Always hate moving on from players that have made an impact on the team, however in a complete rebuild, it's only fair that @Bobcat gets a fair chance at competing as we won't be ready in time to make one last run before retirement. As it always is... thank you @Frank for the increasingly easily discussions we always tend to have. And best of luck to you & Vancouver
