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...

July 2022 Ecco Raven, Magnus Gallant, Murmur Twin (Kings), CC Keane (Ducks), Diq Nol (retiring), Bird Strike, Kash Uno (Blue Jackets), and Retro Futurist (Kings) are all out of contract and have left their respective teams. Ecco signed for Scumhunters for 4 years, $3.3 million per year Murmur Twin signed for Scumhunters for 1 year, $4.8 million Retro Futurist signed for Scumhunters for 4 years, $3.7 million per year Bird Strike signed for Scumhunters for 2 years, $1.8 million per year Magnus Gallant signed for Scumhunters for 3 years, $1.35 million per year CC Keane signed for Scumhunters for 2 years, $3.6 million per year Kashuno signed for Scumhunters for 3 years, $1.6 million per year LOL that Bird is getting less money than Ecco. Bird has always started and Ecco has been #2. I wonder if that is changing? In the hurry to sign up all these players, we are over the salary cap I think, so someone if not a few folks will probably be released again. Circle of life. This is ...

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...
