New York Americans Offseason Prep to Season 80

 

Big week for the New York Americans. Not only do the New York Americans have a new bench boss and General Manager in @MexicanCow123, as big tenure boss and New York legend @Esso2264 steps down after a big dozen seasons as General Manager of the New York Americans, the Americans also made a few big changes to the roster heading in to the 80th season of the VHL.

 

To begin, the New York Americans trimmed their roster down to a line up of 5 forwards, 3 defense, and one goaltender, and then they traded away their Season 80 first round, 3rd overall pick (which turns up becoming Saku Kotkakoivu @DollarAndADream ), and a conditional Season 81 first round pick to the Calgary Wranglers, for two Season 80 third round picks (Calgary's and their very own New York's 3rd round picks; which were used to draft Left Winger Ernie King Jr @Greg Ernest 40th overall and Defenseman NineIQPro @NineIQ v2 37th overall respectively), Superstar Forward Left Winger Luke Thornton @Jtv1233 and also the return of former New York American and fan favourite Star Defenseman Cowboy Prout @Prout. Making their roster heading into Season 80 with a standard 6 forwards, 4 defense and one goaltender.

 

Returning forwards include Center Phoenix Dawson @Toast and Right Winger Jon Webber @Webberj, both returning for their second season with the Americans. Center Calvin Hobbes @2hawk will return for his third season, their Captain and superstar Right Winger Red Lite @Tate will return for his 5th season, and finally after signing a lifer and retirement package contract, aging star Center Rhynex Entertainment @Rhynex Entertainment will return for his 6th season.

 

In defense, it was interesting to see the New York Americans let go of star Defenseman Chicken Wing @chikn. They will bring back The Loch Ness Monster @LuluSalesAway for his second sophomore season, Kosmo Kramerev @Mongoose87 for his 3rd season with the Americans, and star defenseman Zeedayno Chara @Jubis for this 4th season as a New York American.

 

Finally, the New York Americans bring back their superstar in the making goaltender Thadius Sales @thadthrasher, who has a lot to prove as he tries to make it into the playoffs for the second time in his 5th season in the VHL.

 

With the roster near completion, there will be a lot of noise coming in the big apple as the New York Americans have high expectations in making the playoffs again, after missing out again in season 79 of the VHL. There will also be little excuses for their veteran Center Rhynex Entertainment to not return to form, with his rapid decline in play over the past seasons, especially with the addition of Luke Thornton making it two superstar wingers for the former Vladimir Boomchenko Trophy winner to pass to. However, one might say Center Phoenix Dawson might be taking the reigns as the team's top center, so we may see an even bigger decline in production to the Entertainer, who has been a consistent 30+ goal scorer and point per game producer. All in all, we know this will be a very interesting and possibly the most entertaining season coming up for the New York Americans. In hopes for a very long season in New York. Go NYA Go!

New York is looking like it could have a championship roster on their hands here to be honest. If I could pick one part of the team that was worse than the rest, it would probably be the defense but even so, it has three 600+ TPE players. Now that Seattle is in a bit of a rebuild maybe New York could finally find a spot in the playoffs? Only time will tell. Best of luck next season. 9/10

Review:

Amazing breakdown of the New York Americans' off-season. They made some amazing moves, and although it's heartbreaking to see @Proutand @Jtv123leave Calgary, I wish them and NYA all the best, especially since it led to being reunited with @DollarAndADream again, which is just fantastic. The only thing I would add to this spot would be a picture for this to be considered perfect. I love when Spotters tag members in articles. It's a great way to stimulate engagement. Great work @Rhynex Entertainment:cheers:
