My take on all this

[.sniffuM 1,741]

So before I get into anything here, I just wanted to point out that I've seen Vic's post in CIA's thread about how the BOG is beginning to discuss fixing the crossover issue. That's good. Now that that's out of the way, I'll get into things from my perspective here.

So New York missed the playoffs again despite being a top 8 team in the league, the second straight season this happened and the third time overall this has happened to a team in the last four seasons. I can get into the whole 'it makes no sense to guarantee a group of six four playoff spots when another group of six is vying for four spots in the other conference and odds are pretty good a team can get screwed out of the playoffs' thing that I've already brought up multiple times, but now that the BOG is privy to everything there isn't really a need to do so. But I just wanted to say that it just sucks to see a quarter of my player's career kind of wasted because of this. Now more than ever, anything can happen in the playoffs (except Malmo winning any games this postseason), so having two more shots to bring one home for the bird would have been invaluable.

I don't think it's much of a secret that I'm here primarily because I like the discord. Sure, I care about A Red Guy, but at the end of the day I'm not a hockey person at all and I've voiced my opinion plenty in the past that I find goalie boring as all hell. But I'm up for my team, we've been thrown an insane number of curveballs in my four seasons with New York, really more than I can honestly think of for any team in that stretch of time in my vast sim league history. And I can't help but feel shitty for my teammates that have stuck through all the hardships and have gotten consistently shafted for it. I know we should just git gud, but I'd pose the argument that we did by trading one of the best centers in the league for an inferior winger while moving another winger to learn the center position on the fly, because STHS.

Alright, that's all I got. YMMV

They've beaten us 3 times in the past 2 seasons so I fully expect them to sweep us now.
