14. Glenn Gawdin, center, 20 years old, 72 overall,4 red star potential
15. Kyle Maksimovic, 19 years old, 62 overall, 4 red star potential

Our prospect pool is stacked, quite a few of these players will be pushing for NHL spots within the next two or three years, which is good to see.

At the start of December, our team had a stellar 16-4-2 record, first in our division and best in the NHL at the time. We accomplished all of this despite Claude Giroux, our captain, being out injured for almost two months.

We were still doing very well near the end of December when Jack Campbell succumbed to injury once again, this time out for approximately two months. With his injury, we were once again on the trade block, looking for a replacement. I found that the Tampa Bay Lightning were shopping around a goalie named Andrei Vasilevsky(86 overall, 23 years old, 4 1/2 red star potential), who I was intrigued by. We sent Andrey Makarov back to the team he used to play for, a 2nd round pick from next year, and a third from the year after. It was a pretty hefty price, but we needed a good starting goalie whilst Campbell was out.

Heading into the trade deadline, our record was 35-24-4, first in the Metropolitan Division. A very good record, and hopefully a good basis for the rest of the season, and hopefully this will be the first year in our GM mode where we make the playoffs. I'll leave this episode with the team leaders, here they are:

Goals: Jakub Voracek, 26
Assists: Claude Giroux, 27
Plus/Minus: Anthony Duclair, +10
PIMS: Ryan Reaves, 121
Wins: Andrei Vasilevsky, 20

See you next time, when we enter the trade deadline. Hope you enjoyed!

American Dad "Twinanigans" Review

It's been a while since the last Steve and Roger episode, and this week reminded me why that's such a classic American Dad pairing. This is a genuinely fun episode, filled with some great one liners and even a great callback to the show's past. "Twinanigans" centers around the heretofore unmentioned acting careers of Roger and Steve, who twinned it up as the Smith Brothers. I'm not going to question whether this backstory actually makes sense to the overall timeline; no one watches American Dad for continuity. Steve had to give up acting to attend kindergarten, and wants to give Roger a second chance at greatness. The two head to auditions, where Steve impresses and Roger blows it. It's here the episode kinda misfires, as it's never made abundantly clear why Roger struggles so much at acting. Is he just trying too hard, does he have some form of stage fright, does he not even know what acting is? This part of the story is just never explained, w...

Henry's Pay-Per-View Reviews: ECW Heatwave 1998

As the world collectively loses it's mind over the coronavirus(this could be a fun intro to look back on in the future), the only sanity that can be found is in the ring. Let's take a look today at what is often considered ECW's finest outing, Heatwave '98. - Jokes aside, everyone should stay safe out there. I know it's easy to panic about these mass outbreaks, and I've certainly felt very nervous about everything I've heard and read over the past week. But I think we all need some fun in our lives right now, and this show is the epitome of distraction. - The opening contest is one of the highlights of the night, as Jerry Lynn takes on Justin Credible. Credible has an entire entourage in his corner, including Chastity, Jason and Nicole Bass, and their involvement in this match at times bordered on excessive. But the match begins to hit it's peak when Lynn puts Credible through a table with a hurricanrana, and it's all fantastic from...

Curious Crab

One Monday night my mom looked into my crabitat and found that a crab had climbed into one of my fake trees. It was in the top branch. I looked in later, and found that the crab had fallen out of the tree. I hope he is okay. What a day!
