Gudnason 607 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Again, me not being resolute at all cost myself S57 HSK 1st. Eventually went to Riga, but had Ying stayed on Riga, the S57 HSK 1st would have gone to Cologne. So fucked myself over, and saved Riga's ass in that they got compensation for me, instead of me retiring on them. I second-guessed my decision to want out of Riga many times, and every time I come to a different conclusion with different reasons. We'll never know how things would have turned out if I acted differently at any point of the decision-making process. Thanks to @hedgehog337 for drafting me in S55, and thanks for respecting my wishes of wanting out, even if you had other reasons to trade me away. I'm so happy Bogdanovic turned out well for you, and your big moves this season also seem to be paying off. Rooting for you to go for the Cup (currently undecided between Helsinki and Riga; I'd also be happy for Quebec and Toronto too, actually).

This is when we open up betting (should be a thing anyway). VHLCasino. Payout of 1.78 if it's his last shot. Payout of 1.89 Ying's minutes diminish by 3 mins or greater. Payout of 3.6 Punks next player will be better than Ying. Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/43613-rudi-ying-retires/#findComment-466285 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had no indication you were going to even consider toretire at any point. I wanted to have you on the team because I knew you were active and an interesting person to have on the team. Also I have sat out Shephard for the whole season so far to make cap room for Ying as the second line center.
