Trades

DC has made more trades than I have so far, but I have made some. Here's the general explanation behind them.

 

PRG gets
S68 MOS 2nd

 

VAN gets

The assurance that I take a particular guy and not another particular guy

 

So just to clear the air, obviously everyone now knows that "a particular guy" was @Jbeezy76 Erik Draven. Vancouver, just having come from a cup win, was looking to keep their older and more developed players together and could afford to lose a younger prospect such as Draven, which is fine with me since I'm in a position where he's the exact type of player I'd want. "Another particular guy" in this case was @eaglesfan036 Gritty, who I'd clearly been interested in, but fits Vancouver's direction a bit more than my own. Also, as was asked in the thread, how did I know Eno wouldn't just take Draven? I mean if you saw, Eno had almost the exact same deal with Davos, taking Dan Gles and getting a pick for it. We'd talked about it ahead of time and decided who wanted who, I picked Draven because I'd been in Yukon Discord and had seen how good he was in there, and decided that was a type of presence I wanted for the team.
 

New York receives:

S69 PRG 4th

 

Prague receives:

Kolur Bjoernsson

 

This is basically a safety valve. There are active goalies in the draft and I do intend to take one, but there have been a few talking about going back into the minors again. Bjoernsson means I don't have to take those guys off the table - if I take a guy and he goes into the minors, I play Bjoernsson for a season. Otherwise, he's the backup, and as an inactive I'd only be playing him the minimum games, so the active guy from the draft will play the highest set of games possible.

it's nice to finally see my players valued around the league after so many crappy ones for a while

@diamond_ace thanks for drafting me it is a real honor to play for Prague ! I have so much respect and learned a lot from Lord Beavis but I feel like I could play a defining leadership role in the growing of this fine young team you are developing here with the Phantoms. I would say the best looking logo ever so far is Pragues. I love the design and color scheme. I look forward to leading us into a winner some day. Sooner than later if everyone gets on the same page and develops their TPE. LETS GO PHANTOMS!
