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.

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.



A...convincing road victory? There may be hope for this team yet.

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 4

July 2020 Podima, Allen Wren (Sabres), Bottle Knight (Flames), and Retro Futurist have left their teams. Retro Futurist has signed with the Kings on a 2 year, $1 million per year deal. Po Dima joined RF at the Kings on a 7 years, $4.25 million per year deal. Jeez. Gettin paid. Wren has returned to the Scumhunters on a 2 year, $3.3 million per year deal. Bottle Knight re-signed with the Scumhunters on a 1 year, $4 million per year deal. On July 18th, Moat officially retired and left the game. 24 Scumhunters are still playing. August 2020 The Scumhunters have been adding non-Mafia players and are over the salary cap so someone or a handful of folks could end up being released. We'll see how it goes. September 2020 The Lord of Hats (Canada), Pinterest Mom (USA), and Bird Strike (Slovakia) have been called up for the World Cup. Hats is an alternate captain for Canada. All three teams are in Group A along with Russia. Brutal. Bird Strike in goal led Slovakia to a 3
