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.

The End

Hey folks, I am way behind because of work and some other things so it's time to make that right. It will be picture light but content heavy. To start today we are hosting the Bruins, who are 16th in the East. Should be academic but we all know about our struggles against teams from the East. The first and second periods pass by in a flash, with the game not stopping to show me anything of note. Both teams took 16 shots and there were 3 power plays but no good opportunities. The third period is much of the same. We create a few goal mouth scrambles in the last minute of regulation but nothing do. Overtime is equally sleepy, so to a shootout we go. Why am I not surprised? Diqnol and Hats hit their efforts right at the goalie, while PMom just misses the net completely. Bummer. The result drops us to 7th. Away to Nashville now. The Predators are in 5th so if we want to have a shot at hosting a home playoff series we probably need to win here. Halfway through the first w...

Injury bug strikes again

We start today's update with some less than ideal news. I think the 23 player squad limit is the biggest thing I am having trouble adjusting to, especially when we roster 20 in a game. I've got a couple of injuries so I have free spots on my bench now which I assume is not good? Anyway, onto the first game of this update. A home loss is less than ideal. Confirmation that we suck against teams from the East as well as on the road. Gosh. So of course our next game is on the road to a team from the East, Columbus! They are 13-11-4. Let's see how it goes. Its_is_a_mystery.png Ok then Come onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn. I need new penalty takers apparently. Kash also blew a glorious chance to win it with 10 seconds left in OT. And then. Well, at least this update is almost over. Can't get much worse I hope. On the road to the 14th placed team in the East. Predictable ending. Sigh. Okay, one more game for this quick update. ...

Epilogue Year 5

July 2021 Magnus Gallant and Bottle Knight have left the Scumhunters. The AI let a lot of players go so we are down to a squad of 12 Scumhunters, 4 randos, and 2 guys the computer made up because we didn't have a lot of players. Cant look at their "Information" or give them an actual contract. Nice job, AI. Should mean a lot of players in. Sure enough, Magnus Gallant re-signed. This is a guy whose latest contract extension was for $920,000 and has exclusively played in the AHL at Tuscon the last three years. He was just handed a $3.6 million dollar one year deal. AI dumb. Bottle Knight also returned for 2 years, $3.2 million per year. I mentioned possible retirements coming up. Here's one. And actually, a day later, he went ahead and retired, not bothering to play the last season on his contract. So here are FL's final screens. 23 Scumhunters remain. August 2021 Austria will host the 2026 Olympic games. September 2021 The L...
