Traded to the Bruins and to Providence, 37 points and 7.03 average rating in 32 games is quite good for a predicted third liner. :thup:

Too bad that our playoff run was short.

I'm jealous! My goal is to end up with the Bruins at some point in my CAS career.

You were so close to being drafted by them, if you had got drafted as you were predicted Bruins would've got you, clearly they didn't want you... :-p

How can fate be so cruel?



I suppose it could've been worse. I could have been drafted by Montreal.

Well I went from Norfolk to Milwaukee, is that still a Lightning team? (I have no idea about the minor leagues)

I didn't have a very good year, only played 24 games and lost 15 of those. Although with a GAA of 2.38 and a save % of 0.926 I don't think it was my fault for losing those games. Well at least I started to gain some skills again, unlike last season where I just dropped some. I also dropped a couple, but at least I gained too. :joy:

I can offer you out on trade to everyone but it's up to Chicago if they want you or not....



Also last season the penguins beat the avs in the Stanley cup final, whilst Syracuse beat Philadelphia for the Calder

you were loaned out, I just missed it off your page...



In other news we just had our first tbl trade!! Hjalmarsson for waldo, straight swap. We also have a #1 & #2 goalie combo at the flyers with hypnotist and Gehrig battling it out!

my progress has slowed down, but my ratings & points (& PIMS) continue ever upward. It looks like I've established myself as a solid 3rd line enforcer, which is what I was hoping for :-D

Now I just want to win the cup!

Hey!!! I got drafted by Montreal!

At least Philly saw my value. Hey Calv, who won the Calder Cup?

I should read all the posts first. Would have been nice to have a championship under my belt, but I'll take 36 points in 23 playoff games.

I am wondering why I'm fighting so much the older I get. I'm not really designed for NHL fisticuffs, unless I'm standing up for my teammates!

I may ask for a trade in the near future as well. My offensive stats were okay, 26-27-53 in 80 games, but it's the 6.64 rating that really has me scratching my head. Either I'm not playing well in the defensive zone or I'm on the ice for a lot of powerplay goals against. :shrug:

I got traded AGAIN!?!?!?! I'm "well-traveled" and I haven't played an NHL game yet. Normally not a good sign. But for the record, I hope you are man enough to carry my jock Gehrig!!!!

Sorting all of the goalies out is such a difficult task, especially when a team has more than TBL goalie. What usually happens is a goalie will be the #2 to an established NHL goalie so will get about 5 games a season, if I move them down then the other TBL goalie who is in the AHL usually gets moved up and becomes the #2 NHL goalie... ](*,)
I've had to spend lots of time moving various goalies about to try and get you all ice time, very frustrating.

What a terrible rookie season in the NHL. 5 goals and 9 assists for 14 points. With a 6.30 avr rating. I didnt even play in the playoffs. At least Im playing for a big league club. Cant complain about that.

Well, almost a point-per-game player in my second season in the AHL. Hope the Fishsticks' management finds it in their heart to call me up to the big club next season.

I could have made the Finals if I had stayed in Montreal? Eh. Still would rather be a Flyer.

Does this mean an update is coming soon?

The majority of the NHL wants you, including the Blackhawks. I will give the full list later if you want or I can just accept the Blackhawks' offer
