Isau and The Off-Season

[Eynhallow 412]

Ya, another interminably long off season.  Even though the Reign made the playoffs, we bowed out with a whimper after just 5 games.  So, here I sit at my cottage in Northern Ontario watching the leaves start to change.  I am thinking that I guess I should put all my toys away and get back to Riga in order to prepare for next season.  But I really don't feel like it just yet.  Maybe in a week or so.

 

I read Red's @Red article about depreciation and find myself in the same boat (more or less).  Both Isau and Cabe McJake are on the same team.  In fact we even play the same positions.  So, how to deal with depreciation ?  I gotta say first that is depreciation a lack of "appreciation" ?  So my efforts would be appreciated less ?  In any event, perhaps depreciation will give me an opportunity to rebalance some of the attributes where I foolishly put TPE.  TPE that could have been used more productively elsewhere.  For example, maybe 61 in Checking is a little high.  And why do I have TPE in the area nof penalty shots.  I have never taken one.  And so the slide into obscurity begins.
