OK. Here's a game that people can play if they want where people can pretend to be the GM of a team, and we can make trades and stuff as if it's the offseason (no vegas expansion trades until we get closer to the expansion draft, though you may talk about those trades). You may ask for a team, and i will give you that team if it isn't already taken. My favourite teams are the Rangers and Islanders tied, so i'll be the Islanders. Each person may only be the GM of one team.
Here is the list of GMs (i will update it when someone claims a team):
Anaheim Ducks - TrueNorth https://www.capfriendly.com/armchair-gm/team/345664

I also like how Rangers polluted every thread with his expansion draft mumbo jumbo, and in the end didn't submit his list...


LMAO .. but yes in all seriousness .. we need to have another vote after expansion or Free Agency.

I really haven't had a lot of contact or interaction with him, and didn't read many of his posts as they didn't have anything to do with me. When we submitted our lists for BoG, I added him in there, just as a show of respect for starting the game and bringing us all together.

I knew he was having a hard time with letting go of the controls .. but wow .. I had no idea it was this bad. I have since noticed and read many of his posts. Not only is he having a hard time keeping up with being a BoG .. he actually has issues keeping up as an everyday GM.

I'm sorry rangers, but it appears the game you started has become too complicated for you to keep up with. You will have to do a better job, as it's possible that you will not just be removed from the BoG, but you may end up being fired as your team's GM.

I think if you focus more on your own team and less on how the league is run, it will definitely help you keep up.

This behaviour was happening prior to vote that's why I didn't want him on the BOG...his most common troll is that... you're over the cap comment which he pulled out again last night. He makes no effort to keep up with what is actually occuring within the game. He is a constant distraction.

Look guys, he didn't even need to say anything yet today and we are already in a discussion about him. That's how bad it's become.

This floors me!

There is a very good chance this behavior will continue, even if he's removed from BoG. I just don't believe he is actually grasping everything. It's as if he doesn't understand what is actually happening at the moment. Everyone is probably over the cap at the moment, because of the draft, and you don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure it out.

I think that we should have a vote on whether to remove him or not. Perhaps the BOG should vote on that. I don't think anyone would vote to keep rangers other than rangers himself.

As someone who voted rangers onto the board for the same reasons FlyerFanatic did, It's troubling to me too.

For once, rangers is right. Gibson can be exposed according to the expansion tool. He just doesn't have him on roster which is the problem.

You're a BOG member for crying out loud

You were supposed to bring all of your minor/junior players up to the NHL. Did you? No. So you are, by your words, "breaking the rules".

Regardless of that, Gibson is an RFA. If you wanted to expose him, you should have resigned him. You didn't. That's your problem. You must know expose the only goalie you have, and that is Greiss.

These were the rules, and it's your fault if you didn't know them by now.

I re-signed him ... and even if i hadn't, you can leave RFA Goalies unprotected and is all that you need to be unprotected. Just not UFAs.
