Gooningitup 1,290 Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Davos GM makes bold choices Davos has been a fun team to watch, much better than the last three seasons with the circus in upper management. They have built a core of 3 young players, the very quiet Pavel Komarov a respected player who never speaks out of line. Much like his father just gets down to the nitty gritty. However the two biggest stars, also hold very big egos. The first is reigning rookie of the year, Sir William Covington. Hes blooming into a star, though his personality is off putting to many. Vladamir Komarov has put faith in him, to help lead the team to the glory land despite the risk of him bolting. Next up is Kai Roberts, another man with a larger than life personality. Well him and Covington have butted heads, they have also showed some great team work. Showing the desire to put their issues aside to lead this team to the finals. This is great to see after Komarov invested so much to bring him into the fold. Sitting safely in the playoffs GM Komarov had to make a choice. He likely couldnt beat out, the other teams in a rebuild. He could sell off assets and suck for many years, or he could compete. Then Seattle came knocking, after some talk, back and fourth they settled on a huge deal. Holik seen as the future star in Davos, was shipped off for the reigning Shaw winner Sandro Clegane. Also in the deal was Shawn Muller and experienced forward who brought a big threat upfront. Going the other way was Davos first this year, and the second. They made numerous transactions including sending, Mercer and Fiend back to the minors, aswell as signing Hackett to a deal. Then came another upgrade to Davos back end in the form of Escabar, in exchange for a second two years from now. Its a risky move, but they have choosen to fight a battle with Colgone to emerge as the euro champs. Neither likely stand a chance against really anyone in North America, but Davos GM just looking to bring fans back, show hes not afraid to make bold moves. It has brought some energy back to the crowds, the city has confidence in its GM, and hopes that he one day can bring them back to the dynasty days. For now, all Davos GM right now is worried about is making the most of his time as GM. He wants to show Davos fans that he loves this franchise, he hooes he can guide the team to the cup he just never could reach. He still bleeds Davos purple, even as a GM he is still a loyal fan, even wears his jersey. More than willing to meet and greet with fans, things many GMs wouldnt do.

evrydayimbyfuglien 600 Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Review: Nice article. A few grammar issues as I'm sure you're well aware. Content-wise this is spot on. Nice look at the squad. Best of luck heading into the back nine. Glad to see Covington and Roberts working together.
