But seriously, Hamilton's career so far is almost as perfect as I could ask for. I got drafted to a fantastically young Helsinki team with @Victor and @Draper, we went on to win 2 Continental Cups, 2 Victory Cups, and 3 Fong Trophies in 4 seasons, while I collected a Labatte and 4 Jonssons. My offensive output hasn't been as much as I would have liked but honestly, I can't complain much.
Helsinki's LR atmosphere was out of this world and it was such fun just hanging out in there. I will sorely sorely miss it. At the beginning of Hammy's career I thought I would stay on Helsinki for 6 seasons. However, this is the best alternative to that. Thank you @Daniel for making this trade possible and thank you at @gregreg for showing interest. Cologne is a team I have not played for (along with Calgary, Stockholm, Quebec and kind of New York) and I was really excited when we expanded to Cologne in S31 - I've always wanted to be there.
What with my FIRST VHL GM (greg) being in charge, the first GM of Cologne ( @Kendrick), one of my Hamilton brothers ( @Knight), and my old buddy @Sandro (also one of my first VHL GMs) there... this is a very exciting event for me.
But as the sim will have it... greg will probably be regretting this trade and deal me at the deadline. But in the meantime I am very fortunate to end up on a hype train.
