A hard reset was needed and two firsts is a great start

Keep earning that tpe, a lot is riding on you. Having a tpe whore goalie on a rookie contract is a great advantage for filling out the rest of the roster.

you never made an offer, Riga is my OG team!

salary cap is automatically calculated on the portal now? I had to manually calculate that every year and it was always a major pain to map all that out

I truly appreciate every GM's interest in signing me. @Banackock - I was very torn and really close to signing with Seattle. Strategically I think they made the most sense, but there is more that went into this decision for me. I also really respect the hustle, you remind me of myself when I was a GM. You are among the most active GMs, and reached out to me as soon as 11 struck. While you may occasionally be irritable, I respect the hustle and your passion for your team. @Devise - Toronto would have been an intriguing fit for Gritty from a personnel/lines standpoint, as I think it's a team that Gritty could put up a lot of points with. Strategically we probably would have been able to compete with Seattle. @Bushito - While I do like Calgary from my long time being their GM, I don't have any desire to have an inactive as my GM. Thank you for the interest though. @ShawnGlade - I feel really bad leaving the team for nothing because as a former GM I know it would suck. I don't think that ever actually happened to me though, I advise that you ask GMs if you can speak with a player before trading for them, and pay attention to what is remaining on their contract. While I was cool with being on Davos and you are a nice guy and all, I just have my doubts Davos could be a contender at the moment, and considering I had only spent a half season on Davos I felt no true loyalty forcing me to stay. If me and Flyersfan re-signed it would be a repeat of last season, and the team would be stuck in purgatory rather than do a true rebuild, which is what this team really needs. Talk to me in a few seasons if Davos is a contender again! @Victor - Moscow checks off a lot of boxes for me. I really wanted to play for an expansion team and be a part of a team's very first cup win, as I think it would be really cool to make history like that. I was in love with the whole Moscow idea since the team came out, and never got a chance to play with Victor, who is one of my favorite members on here. Strategically, once we dump some empty salaries, I feel confident me and Flyers can supplement this roster into a good team. We have some high tpe players and a tpe whore of a goalie who I am excited to see grow. Lastly, I want to get back into the GM game, and Victor has agreed to name me assistant GM, and even run the draft for him tonight since he lives in UK time.

News reporters have been frantically following Gritty's footsteps trying to figure out where the most desired free agent in the VHL will land along with his best friend, Smitty. Upon landing in Seattle early yesterday morning, Gritty walked into the Bears facility and was not seen until walking out late at night. When reporters asked him for a comment, all he said was the following, "I continue to amaze me." Gritty's free agency tour has seen him visit Toronto and Seattle in North America, but now that he is headed to Europe there is wild speculation that he is heading back to Davos. GMs around the league are surely keeping their anuses peeled for this big development, as they know the Gritty and Smitty combo can completely shake up the league wherever they go. And on the off chance Gritty is not heading back to Davos, why would he be heading back to Europe? Maybe he just likes Italian food and knows he won't get any in Toronto.

Gritty obviously

LOL

why not just put a filter on select words on the forum?

hmm

Malmo was more concerned with buffing a certain players stats than actually winning a cup it appears to me

I still say ignoring the playoffs is dumb What if a GM make a move at the trade deadline to bring in 2 guys (for cap purposes), and while they were in 2nd in the regular season are the clearly superior team in the playoffs thanks to said GM's great move.

congrats on the top defenseman award @flyersfan1453! Also just curious, what was the thought process in voting in ADV > Banacock (the cup winning GM) for the best GM award? I feel like the voting has always been biased towards the meaningless Victory Cup award instead of the real cup.

@Will @Beketov is there any way to automate the trades so that the player names posted have a link to their player page? Would help for casuals like me who have no idea who these people are

Yes a live video of me eating a live salamander

Smitty

Congrats @Beaviss, well deserved but my only concern is we won't find someone as good as you to run recruitment team. Also, another blue team member who is also a GM, let the conspiracy theories continue

RIP Chat! @Beketov shouldnt chat have been retiries seasons ago when i re created?
