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 Lord of Hats remains captain with Bottle Knight and Murmur Twin being the alternates. Jonathan Fisk is the captain of the Devils, Kashuno is an alternate captain for the Blue Jackets, and Poque is an alternate captain for the reigning champion Hurricanes.

Scumhunters are predicted 28th. For once, the MVP is not The Lord of Hats. It is Pinterest Mom.

October 2021

The Lord of Hats didn't make NHL's top 10 defensemen. Sad day.

PMom, MMM Whatchya Say, and Murmur Twin hit 400 NHL appearances.

Poque won a player of the week and defensive player of the week for 1 goal, 3 assists in 2 games.

November 2021

Busb hit 400 NHL appearances.

A trade out of nowhere and I'm pretty disappointed in this tbh.


Well, the Kings are quickly becoming Scumhunters Lite.

Hats and BottleKnight reached 200 NHL points.

Scumhunters are 9-16-2, 11th place.

December 2021

MMM Whatchya Say and Busb hit 100 NHL assists.

Murmur Twin won a player of the week and offensive player of the week for the Kings, scoring 4 goals and grabbing an assist in 2 games.

Magnus Gallant hit 100 NHL appearances.

Poque won a player of the week and defensive player of the week award for recording 8 assists in 4 games.

Scumhunters are 15-22-3, 11th place.

January 2022

Trade offers are coming in by the boatload for PMom. I don't think they are long for the Scumhunters, unfortunately.

Bottle Knight hit 400 NHL games.

PMom hit 100 NHL goals.

Bottle Knight got put on the trading block. Huh. Weird. Wren was also put on the block.

Scumhunters are 20-31-4, 13th place.

February 2022

Got another retirement coming.


Po Que once again added another year to his contract at the Hurricanes, getting another $7 million.

Birdstrike won a defensive player of the week award for pitching a shutout in his one game that week. Speaking of Birdstrike, we have Olympic call ups.




No surprises, those 3 seem to be regulars for major tournaments. Doesn't appear as if Kash or Stickup were called up.

Hats played very well in Canada's 5-1 victory over Denmark. He was selected second star of the game. PMom played okay in USA's 4-0 win over Switzerland. Birdstrike played good in Slovakia's 3-2 loss to Russia.

Birdstrike played okay in Slovakia's 3-2 defeat to the Czech Republic. Hats played okay in Canada's 3-2 shootout win over Finland. PMom played good and had an assist in USA's 6-1 victory over Sweden.

Hats played great in Canada's 7-3 win over Germany, being selected third star. PMom had a good game, scoring a goal, in USA's 3-2 win over Austria. Birdstrike was great in Slovakia's 3-0 win over Belarus.

Birdstrike played good in Slovakia's 2-1 victory over Denmark.

Hats scored the winning goal in Canada's 3-2 quarterfinal victory over Sweden. Birdstrike played okay in Slovakia's 4-0 quarterfinal defeat to Russia. PMom had a great game in USA's 5-0 quarterfinal victory over Germany.

Hats played well and had an assist in Canada's 3-0 semifinal victory over Czech Republic. PMom had an okay game in USA's 5-2 semifinal victory over Russia.

Capitalist Pig reached 400 NHL appearances.

Hats played okay and PMom played well as USA won the gold medal, 2-0, over Canada.

Keane was traded to the Ducks for a 2nd round pick.

Scumhunters are 21-36-4, 13th place.

March 2022

Poison Mushroom hit 400 NHL games.

Snooze Cruise, making $302,000 in Switzerland, will be coming back home on a one year, $3.2 million deal.

Scumhunters are 27-45-5, 13th place.

April 2022

Asiina signed on with Geneve-Servette for another year at another $1 million.

World Championships time! Busb (USA), The Lord of Hats (CAN), and This is a Stickup (CAN) are all participating. Hats is captain for Canada.

Hats had two assist and Stickup added another in Canada's 5-0 win over Austria. Seems like Busb is not going to play much if at all for USA during this tournament as he was left out of the squad in the USA's 5-0 win over Latvia.

Stickup had an assist and Hats played alright in Canada's 3-2 shootout loss to Sweden.

May 2022

Stickup scored twice and Hats assisted twice (the two of them combined for Stickup's first goal) in Canada's 4-2 win over Denmark.

Stickup scored one and assisted another in Canada's 3-1 win over Germany.

Hats scored the tying goal in Canada's 3-2 shootout win over Great Britain.

Bottle Knight and Allen Wren were waived and then released when they cleared waivers.

Hats scored a goal as Canada defeated Russia 4-3 after a shootout.

Hats and Stickup both had "meh" games as Canada lost 5-4 after a shootout to Slovakia.

Hats scored and had an assist in a 5-4 loss to Finland in the quarter finals, a disappointing end to the tournament for them. USA similarly exited at the quarter finals after a 3-2 loss to Denmark. Busb never played.

June 2022

Wren rejoined the Scumhunters on a one year, $775,000 contract.

Asiina, having just had to go through a surgery and being out six months, is doing another one? I think they may just be bugged at this point...

Hurricanes repeat as Stanley Cup champions, sweeping the Wild 4-0. Poque had 4 assists total in the finals.

Scumhunters have the #1 overall draft pick. Nice.

Predraft thing


Kind of a shock announcement right before the turn of the game year.


He retired and left the game the next day. I'll put his memorial here because of that. Diq's will be at the end of the post. Since he was a free agent at the time he retired I don't have a scout report page, but I got his list of awards instead.







Fans Player of the Year:


Some records we set:


Ok, lets memorialize Diqnol and then post some stats.







When Diqnol officially retires, we'll be down to 21 Scumhunters.

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 6

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 ...
