Reign News

[Ledge 1,131]

              A meager 11 games into S80, it is already clear it is going to be a hectic season for the Riga Reign of the Euro Conference. With their S75-draft-year core nearing their peaks, their window for a championship is wide open. However, there is one glaring obstacle: a goaltender. Right now, the Reign have β-RIG G1 tending the crease, which naturally leads to some incompetency in between the pipes. Nevertheless, the Reign are one win away from .500 hockey and have an outstanding goal differential of +12 despite their record.

 

                   Forwards Justin Lose and Cabe McJake are leading the pride with 19 and 20 points respectively, earning them both spots on the league points leaderboard. Isau DaMoose and newly minted attacker Jolly Greene Giant are both very reliable secondary scorers, and Linus Zetterstrom, Jan Hlozek, and Matt thunder are firing from the back end. Artair McCloud and Anze Miklavz, on the lesser side in TPE due to either activity or seniority, are still producing at a very acceptable level so far. Milk Jugs, the resident inactive, is seeing playing time as a 4th D due to a vacancy on the blueline. 

 

        In other news, McKelvie was hired as my successor as AGM to hedge, a fantastic choice no doubt. Also, first round selection Hari Singh Nalwa was dealt in a three way deal that saw Riga acquire the Dragons' S81 first rounder.
