Better late than never

We start today's update with a road trip to Detroit.


A really exciting first period but nothing really happens after that. We only had two penalties but were unable to kill either. Meanwhile, Detroit had six and we only found the net once. They had over a period racked up in penalty minutes and it wasn't enough. Gave this one away.



Then Pig got hurt again. Cool. That means Fisk will rejoin the lineup. Our next game is on the road to Carolina. They have the same record as us, so it'll be interesting to see if the "other conference jinx" is real or not.

I knew I could count on you stickup!!!!!!!! Busb had a good chance to win it at the end of regulation but hit it right at their goalie instead. In overtime, Kashuno alos had a great chance to win it but hit it straight to their goalie. Then he won the face off, passed to Hats, Hats fed him back, and he won it for us. Great work, team. At about the 50 minute mark I was making a bunch of notes on things I needed to do to get us out of the skid we were starting but hey, I guess I just need more faith.

Our next game is away to the Panthers, who are terrible, so I am expecting us to lose because why not?




Not like this guys. Come on.





Better.







OH FFS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And that's how it ends.


They had 28 penalty minutes and we had 8 power plays and we couldn't get the job done. We got destroyed on the boards and I guess that's probably where we lost this one. Ugh.

A bit of good news in that BK is almost ready to go again




On the road to Tampa now. This road trip feels like it'll never end.



AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Okay, so we had way more penalty minutes so we didn't deserve this, but the power play we did get was during OT, so we finished the game playing 4 on 3 and couldn't take advantage. And then we all missed in the shootout. Gosh. I really hope the next game is at home.




It was and we took care of business. Left it kind of late, but The Lord of Hats popped up to win the game for us, and Asiina added an empty net goal to give her her first of the season I believe.


Their first goal got cut off in this. They went ahead after 7 minutes. Good to see us claw back into this one and win the shootout. Okay, one more. But first!





Our first player of the week award! Congrats Kashuno. With how the game works, Kashuno also won Offensive Player of the Week. Two awards!

Okay now for that final game.

F*** the Penguins.
Seriously. F*** the Penguins.

Epilogue Year 14

July 2030 Quid Nose, This is a Stickup, and Po Dima are all out of contract. Retro Futurist retired on July 17th. Quid Nose signed a 2 year, $110,000 per year deal with Lustenau in Austria. This is a Stickup signed a 1 year, $141,000 deal with Tappara in Finland. Also, this happened. I landed here. Po Dima, the oldest player in the game, remains without a team. I halfway think he may just retire. August 2030 September 2030 He actually retired a day later. Podima's memorial. He's rated as a 5 star because I'm currently in the ECHL. His last check in at the NHL level was a 1 star. This means we only have 3 Scumhunters left, and none of them are playing in the NHL currently. October 2030 With everyone playing overseas, we won't get many updates for NHL milestones, so this should go very quickly. I may end up doing a 2-for-1 and combine two years in this. Scumhunters are 2-10-2, 14th place. SEE IT WASN'T ALL MY F

Rounding the corner

I apologize for missing Friday. I was in Delaware and didn't get home until super late, followed by a day trip to Dallas for the weekend so time was not in high supply. I will do a make-up entry tomorrow. Additionally, I'm trying something new this entry: Video! Unfortunately, it took a couple of tries to get things just right so the first game or two of this update will have sparse information. Let's just get started. First up, the Sabers at home. Here is PMush scoring! Unfortunately, that was the only good thing to happen to us this game. Next up, Ducks on the road!  A well taken RF goal.  And there here is This Is A Stickup scoring, but only in picture form. Those were the only highlights I managed.  Ok, on to this game against the Canadiens, where I have an actual lot of highlights to get through.  The puck gets wrapped around the back of the net. Stickup went out to collect but Hats beats him there. Hats backs

Epilogue Year 15

July 2031 Magnus Gallant retired on July 16th. This is a Stickup retired on July 16th. Quidnose, age 35, is the last Scumhunter left. He has one year left on his deal, so I think this may be his last season. He'll turn 36 in May. I'll be going fast the rest of the way. Once Quid Nose retired, we'll open up the Scumhunters record book and see if any of our former players still hold records or not. Or... not. How about that. Quidnose was a 2 star back when he was 33 in the NHL, probably a 1 star by now. So... that's that, then. The new season hasn't started yet so I'll just go ahead and crack open the record book. Remember, our season was from August 2016-June 2017 so anything in those dates belongs to our squad. We have the Highest League Position, Highest Attendance, Lowest Attendance (no idea how this wasn't broken during the years of 14th place), Highest Playoff Attendance, Lowest Playoff Attendance (all playoff
