All Star Break

With the All Star Break in this update, and with me having some work to do tonight, this is gonna be a short update. Let's jump right in.



Uhhh... maybe this will be a one game update. This game was out of reach within seven minutes. Frustration.



Game two here goes much better. We found ourselves down 2-0 but a great fight back led by Podima's two goals and an assist saw us through.


Well, on the road. Had a 2 goal lead. Lost that. Took the lead again. Lost it. Made it to overtime. Snooze Cruise got a high sticking penalty just before OT so we played 80% of the bonus period down a person. And then we missed both of our shots in the shootout. Tough loss. Well lets hope the All Star game can reinvigorate us.



Well, Team Dias got ran through, but The Lord of Hats notched up a (second) assist! Also, I happened to notice this.



The Lord of Hats was captain for Team Dias. Way to go, Hats! After the game we got an email about this.




Ok, next game for Scumhunters!



A late-ish double by Kashuno saves our bacon here. The other thing of note to happen in this game was BottleKnight getting tossed.




So I'm going to have to sit him for a little while. Actually, the NHL is taking care of that for me, apparently.




I'm gonna appeal that. If the NHL panel is anything like the MLS panel, they'll cave to me.





Hahaha.  Dance, puppets, dance. Still going to make him sit for inconveniencing me all the same.

 Captain of the West The Lord of Hats wins it in overtime, saving us from an embarrassing shootout loss. Cool. Think I'm gonna leave it here for now. We are 50 games in and still look good for the playoffs, which was always objective one. We have a 7 game road stretch coming up, though. That will probably make our break our season. I will plan on getting through that next time.

Wrap up:

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...

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...

It's been too long

Sorry folks! A long month of work means I didn't have a lot of time to do this like I wanted. However, I'm gonna be on a regular Monday / Wednesday / Friday updates now through the end, with the exception of tomorrow because I'm posting this update today instead. The penalty being a $50 donation to charity for each one I miss. Ok, back to the hockey! A road win????? What is this madness???? But it's a good start after a long layoff. PMom with a goal and two assists was amazing for us today. This road win was coupled with some good news. Gonna have to reconfigure the lineups a bit to accommodate PMush's return, but that is probably a good problem to have. Poque is going to slot back in immediately. Shoring up the defense will probably help us as we approach the middle of the season. Birdstrike was tired and needed a rest so EccoRaven stepped in at goalie. We were on the road so a loss isn't completely unexpected. Statistically, I feel like we w...
