    Note:

     

    Going to start making my way through updating cap sheets to reflect your 2022 Draft Picks.

     

    As I do I will change the upper limit of everyone's cap structure to address the $1.0M increase to $82.5M.

  3. Congratulations @lethunder!!!

     

    When I first joined you were a powerhouse and a legend… and I will admit, while you rebuilt, I forgot what a force you are. Our sleeping dragon. 
     

    Thank you for one of the most exciting championships I can remember!! 
     

    @Squeak for a guy that kind of accidentally made the playoffs while doing some fine tuning, that was an impressive show! I look forward to seeing what you’ve got for us next year!!

  4. When you have the luxury of bountiful picks, you can afford to take a boom-or-bust guy along the way. I’m a fan of taking chances. 
     

    I surprised even myself when I selected Maveric Lamoureux. He’s huge and underweight, but skates and moves like a small player. 
     

    Some doubt he can even put on enough weight to ever make it, but he’s got quite the support team and people invested in him already… meet my new monster if you’re curious

    To you and everyone one else I have had a bit of a mental breakdown in the last month or so.

    The months leading into this have been the hardest of my life, even harder than four years in the court system fighting for my son and clearing my name.

     

    I deleted the discord app.

    I am very ashamed to say I have some really sad thoughts.

     

    But things are getting better.

    My son is starting to be happier than he was some months ago. 

     

    When you are down there is only one way and that is up and I feel like I have turned a corner.

     

    Was just so good to see you there pickin yesterday… about round 3, TM and we’re doing the math, realizing how early it was for you aussie boys, and the commitment that came with. 
     

    So glad things are on the up, but remember we care just same on the down. When things get rough, please remember to lean into us, rather than away. We’re here as a social distraction, but you know I’m ready to throw down of some life issues if you need a chat, and I know I’m not alone.

     

    Your open and have a big ass heart, and those are your best assets in hard times. We love it!

    New Jersey Devils (2000 - Pres)DRAFT REVIEW!

     

     

    The New Jersey Devils spent Saturday discussing a few possible trade options leading up to the draft, however things stalled and will be revisited in the off season.

     

    One trade was finalized with @arby18_ and the Kings which the Devils moved a 4th round pick in next year's draft to add a pick this draft to secure one of the clubs targets.

     

    At 116th overall the Devils selected center Jordan Frasca ( the player whom despite the amateur hour scouting reports knocking his skating was really the straw that stirred the drink for Mr Shane Wright just so we are all clear )

     

    Frasca has shown consistent improvement in junior and this year he really broke out in a big way. We felt if Scott Young ( formerly of Pittsburgh now of Vancouver ) saw enough in Jordan's potential even suggesting a very teachable motivated youngster with high upside, then we could confidently make the trade we did to secure bringing Jordan to New Jersey.

     

    Thrilled with our selection.

     

     

    Love a pick with a great story. Was fun to see your name pop up in the trades!

    I believe Lambert is gonna be the one that slipped through others fingers.

    I was so close to taking him however my penchant for offensive d- men, Rasmus Andersson, Anthony de Angelo, in previous drafts, had me pulling the trigger on Calle.

    I had Lambert higher in my mind, was thrilled to snag him! 
     

    honestly, it all happened so fast, and there was so much to do, I didn’t have time to overthink anything… which for me is a plus I think :lol:
