In 5 season, i took Davos to the cup. Once, the playoffs 4 times. For some reason people think i have stopped trying. In S51 i started the rebuild after taking a core no one liked KingRobbie and Da Trifecta to a cup final. Almost winning on 7 games, winning GM of the year award.
Next year i had to rebuild, part to retirement and part to, players wishing to move on to teams with friends. So i aquired the S51 1st, 2nd and 3rd overall pick. The 3rd was always a risk i knew it but i tried. Skye and Jelen were supposed to be my core. 1 season in Jelen disapeared i tried reaching him many times in SHL he never came back.
Leaving me only Skye, with no picks i did the same thing i did the previous offseason. Throw money at every active free agent possible. They all went to North America.
So i was left to fend, i turned down a few offer that would have made me a contender in a weak Euro for long term gain.
S53 i decided it was time to start fresh, i moved Skye for 2 2nds in a somewhat deep draft by VHL standards. I drafted who i hoped would be my goalie of the future in Mist4ke.
Thats when i got something that really hurt me, despite overcoming the odds of two hated members on the same team and bringing them almost to a cup 2 seasons after i fully took over. With a roster that had been abandoned by 2 GMs previous. Ive had alot of hateful things said by members in trade threads. Always doubted, despite bleeding purple and doing everything i can to win and build a fun place to be. Yet here was a member insulting my GM tenure, calling it a dump. From what ive heard hes even considering retirement.
This disapoints me, hurts me even. The only reason i come here every day is because i love being a GM. Its been a tough two seasons, waiting to really become something again. But if the league feels i should step down i will. This likely means i disapear from the league, as its what drives me but if thats what is hurting this franchise i will do whats best for it and step down.
