Moscow Eyeing Playoffs and More

[Frank 5,259]

The wait is over. Expectations in Moscow are at an all-time high with the acquisition of Lexi Glass and signing of Rara Rasputin. The Season 80 Menace are not only expected to make the playoffs, but also make some noise once they get there. After the Malmo Nighthawks won their second Continental Cup in their history, Moscow ownership felt pressure to push for their second as well. Moscow GM Euron Leonidas has made several shrewd moves and quality draft choices over his tenure. That has allowed the Menace to select the likes of Duncan Idaho, Paul Atreides, Hard Markinson and Papa Emeritus. The move that signaled the end of the rebuild was when Moscow acquired Aurelien Moreau for the 4th Overall selection in the Season 80 draft. Moreau proceeded to sign a 5 season contract with the club. Moscow has started the season 8-1-1 and are looking to over take Malmo early on. With the rise of Moscow and the beginning of a dynasty with Malmo, this could become a great rivalry over the coming seasons.
