Blog Update (September 2008)
Posted: Sat Sep 20, 2008 3:12 pm
This is the first of a new feature for TBL: The Blog Update. This is going to be a regular feature which will be posted every 4-8 weeks (depending on how much blog activity there is) which will summarise the latest goings on in the community's user blogs. Here is a summary of the latest blog posts (Please note: blog posts made after Sept 6th will be summarised in the next update):
Stone169 (Ottawa Senators)
Having had to start his Sens game all over again, Stone managed to reach the first round of the Playoffs before losing to the Sabres after seven games. Though he still sees the season as a success, having won the division and developed a number of young players.
Neither of his affiliates (Binghamton and Elmira) managed to get further than the third round of their respective Playoffs, either. Stone plans on bringing up a few of his minor league players into the Sens roster and so it looks like Binghamton and Elmira will be with weakend teams for season two.
Having completed the 2007 Entry Draft, Stone is looking to acquire a top two defenceman and a top six forward. You can see a post season interview with him here.
Kuulapaa (Phoenix Coyotes - Challenge 10)
Having struggled in the first two season, Kuulapaa declared season three as a success. He dominated the second half of the season, winning the Presidents Trophy by a 15 point margin. His team didn't have the best start in the Playoffs but they managed to win, beating the Flyers 4-1 overall.
The only bad news in his season was that he was disappointed how quickly he managed to turn around his struggling team in the third season, having copied a tactic he saw on a forum. He felt that this meant the game lost some of its magic.
