I need a Kerr vs Gavilrovs fight to happen. I know size probably doesn't matter that much in the sim engine, but a 5'9 bulldog against a 6'8 behemoth would be awesome

1. I love the addition of Dilson. I haven't really had much time to interact with the newcommers, and I haven't seen them on the ice in our jersey, we'll see 2. No limits? Logan Ninefingers then, your next franchise player after Triller, and Scurvy is one of the best LR people around 3. Hell yeah, we're going for it this season! 4. I don't think they'd apply for it themselves, but I think Triller would be a sneaky good GM. 5. As of now, it looks like defense. But that's what everyone was saying last season as well, and we got to the finals. 6. I always take riddles too literally lol, so idk, when it's open?

Is that another autocorrect, along the lines of s.nubbed?

My brother in wa-... That would sound weird

He's been in the finals three or four times, at some point we have to admit he's just not good enough, he's a wanker after all

1. We let a series lead slip and eventually let Seattle take it. I'm not happy about it. We needed to do better, we lacked that "killer instinct" to wrap it up when we were up 3-2. 2. It's my last season. I'm not gonna ask to be traded, or initiate any trade talks. But if we manage to secure a starting goaltender, I don't think a rebuild is happening in S94. If we don't, I'm probably moved and that's a part of the business. 3. Kerr was actually great on the faceoffs, which had been a flaw in his game prior. But he only shot at the net 5 times, which was below his standard, and didn't score a single goal. League's leading scorer can not disappear in such a moment. 4. I guess I'll try beans on toast. Also I'll probably book an appointment with a geriatrician for Kerr. 5. How great it would be if @kirbithan and their Lachlan Summers joined us fellow S86ers in our last run? One HOF goalie after another. 6. London is too crowded, I'm on the train!

Bloody Wann Kerrse. gg Seattle

Can I exchange all the trophies for one Cup please?

I hope the bridge leads to the Cup

1. Yea we did, also past the second one! He didn't really celebrate, it was just the first round, and no one is putting your name on the cup for winning one round. He's using the time off before the finals to celebrate tho, he's currently in Vancouver celebrating Frank's birthday. 2. I can't be happier. But if I had to nitpick, I'd say he could win a few more faceoffs. 3. He's no longer carb loading with Bernard lager before the finals, he had somq Svijany lager shipped to London this time. 4. Of course I believed we would win, but I certainly wasn't expecting a sweep, more like 6 games. 5. I'm torn. On one hand, I don't want Seattle to get to the finals. On the other hand, I'd enjoy beating Seattle in the finals so much...coin flip, I guess. 6. There's no Wendy's in Czechia (is there even Wendy's in Europe?) and I've never been to Burger King. Considering I don't really like McDonald's, it's...rolls a die...Wendy's!

I feel this so much lol

hello

Come on Dragons, roast them teddies

Not anymore, he's won WC gold medal!

I think Alex has a point, I like everything but the finals

1. Pumped, excited for the playoffs, but mad we have to just sit and do idle animations while waiting for the Wild Card round to end. 2. Drank copious amount of beer, you know how we czechs are. 3. Drinking copious amount of beer, it's the only logical thing to do. 4. Us, of course, ans Chicago, they will go down to start the Wild Card round, but will rise from the ashes and go all the way to the finals. 5. We're the best team on the East side of the pond, but we know how Simon is. I'd give us a 2/3 chance. 6. I'd love to say Prague, but the only way for them to win it goes through us in the 1st, no way I'm rooting for a team that eliminates us in the 1st. Vancouver is not in the playoffs, so honestly, I don't care as long as it's not Seattle.

Haven't done a graphics in ages lol

1. 7 games left now, because I need the stress of having to do it now to actually do it lol. We've already done it, no reason to stress about it, let's start switching our brains to the postseason mode. 2. 2nd in EU, I'd prefer it to winning it honestly, the pressure is higher when you're the clear-cut favorite. 3. Yes, I think out of habit at this point. They're a fun way to learn bits of unimportant history of the game. At least when they're not infuriating. 4. Don't ask. I was shouting at the Wild to fold it when they were 6th worst team in the league, but nope. This is not a championship caliber team, we're building for the 2025/26 season. Even if we made the playoffs this season, it would be a first round exit. Once again, not good enough to compete, but not bad enough to have a reasonable chance of drafting a potentialy franchise changing player. I hate being a Wild fan. 5. Dallas and Florida. Damn, I'd love this matchup so much! 6. It has to be one of the Lord of the Rings movies. Extended cuts, I mean. That's the default for me. Honestly...the most underrated one, the Two Towers.

Claim 2/2 for W.E. 4/21

Wait 'till Grønvold arrives!

1. Yup, already done. It's a good idea, maybe we'll see some teams changing their names soon? 2. Confident, probably the best word to describe it. We're unstoppable. 3. I rarely follow peoples' careers. I guess I was the most curious about Frank's recreate, but he recreated in the offseason. 4. Did we? I'm not sure now how it went haha 5. The player age just bugs me. Either get rid of it, or make the players age. 6. Honestly, the person I enjoy spending time with is myself. I'd just take 24h off by myself, without a phone, somewhere away from others.

Man, you really hate us dark mode users, don't you

(all logos generated using DALL-E 3 AI) Prague. Or Praha, as we the Czechs call it. The capital city of our little country in the heart of Europe, a romantic city full of history, and one giant tourist trap. Or the expensive city where all the assholes live, if you ask any Czech not living in Prague. I was quite happy to see it has its VHL team, and on top of that, the best name, the best logo (along with MEX) and the best color scheme. Normally, I wouldn't write anything like this, I love the Phantoms, but 6 uncapped is 6 uncapped. So let's come up with a new brand for the Prague team, something that would make the best sense to me. Of course I'm gonna present the two obvious, boring options, but also add a few more fun ones. But let's get two things settled straight away - the name format, and the color scheme. You just have to use HC in the name, the typical format of hockey teams' names here is HC [name/sponsor] [city]. Even when we had a team in the KHL, it was called HC Lev (Lion) Praha. As for the team colors, red has to be the primary color. Czech international jerseys are red, the heraldic shield in the coat of arms of both Czechia and Prague is red, the two major hockey teams in Prague - HC Slavia Praha and HC Sparta Praha - have red as their primary color (well, it's maroon for Sparta, that's pretty much dark red ain't it). A secondary color should be gold, and I think no one would be offended by some blue accents. So let's get to the new teams, and let's start woth the two boring, obvious names...that kinda work every goddamn time. Representing Czechia - HC Lions Prague Yup...boring, obvious. There's a two-tailed lion in the Czech coat of arms, which used to be a part of the Czech international hockey logo. And now, when the official symbols can't be used on thr IIHF uniforms,there's a goddamn lion on them. As I've mentioned, we used to have a KHL team, and of course it was called Lion. Hell even our current president Petr Pavel kinda looks like a lion. In a good way, he's a Chad looking fella. Even though the lion is overused, it still works. Representing Prague - HC Knights Prague Why Knights? Because of the Prague Castle, which is portrayed in the coat of arms of Prague, is the president's office and one of the biggest tourist attractions in Prague. It has been the residence of Czech dukes, kings and presidents since the 9th century. It was even the main residence of the Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire twice. And I think Knights would reference the castle the best. Personally, it would be my favorite of these ideas, mostly as an homage to my favorite Bohemian king Přemysl Otakar II. (King Ottokar II. of Bohemia), who ruled in mid-to-late 13th century, was called The Iron and Golden King and was feared because of his heavy cavalry. Other miscellaneous names Here I'm gonna discuss some more names that are fun in my opinion, but wouldn't be taken seriously if a real hockey team representing Prague in an international league was to be created. HC Prophets Prague - we already know the result of the game, and you might as well fold your hockey sticks right now. According to a legend, a prophet (and later a wife of Přemysl, the mythical ancestors of the longest-ruling dynasty of Bohemian dukes and later kings) called Libuše prophesied the future of a great city ("I can see a grand city whose glory reaches the stars") and told people where they should start building the castle - and that's allegedly how Prague was built. HC Scholars Prague - we made an observation, formed a hypothesis, made a prediction, tested it, and came to the conclusion your team is losing tonight. Of course this is a reference to the Charles University, which is the oldest university east from Paris and north from Italy, founded in 1348 by Charles IV, Holy Roman Emperor and by most considered the greatest Bohemian king. Or maybe a reference to Rudolf II, another Holy Roman Emperor and Bohemian king, who was not the greatest politician, but was known for turning Prague into a hot spot for science, art and culture. HC Guardians Prague - with our own bodies we will stop any intruder attempting to cross our blue line. There are tons of things you need to protect. Especially in the dark ages. Towers? Prague is nicknamed the City of Thousand Towers. Gates? There are many ancient gates that used to be a part of the Old Town fortifications, the most famous one probably being Powder Tower. Bridges? Well there's Charles Bridge, the second oldest still standing bridge in Czechia. (AI image generators still can't do text lol) HC Brewers Prague - golden is the color of our hops nectar, so is the color of the medals we bring home. This might not necessarily be a Prague specific thing, but rather a Czech thing. It would probably work better for Pilsen or for Budweis. But come on, what is Czechia probably best known for... HC Reapers/Skeletons Prague - the sand in the hourglass is slowly pouring for everyone, just like the clock are ticking down to your loss. The Prague astronomical clock is another one of the most prolific tourist hot spots in Prague. It's particularly famous for the moving animated figures, the most famous one being the Death or the Reaper. It's a skeleton holding hourglass, as a reminder of the time that's passing for everyone. HC Kings Prague - with a firm grasp I shall rule this rink as I rule my land. This one goes back to the Prague Castle, but to me, it doesn't work as well as the Knights. Still, the Prague Castle has been the residence of about 30 dukes, 35 kings, a queen, 9 Czechoslovak presidents and 4 Czech presidents. But of these titles, I thing King sounds the most majestic.
