"We have received prize money for promotion to a higher league.

Season 36
Prize money 26,497,653"

Holy Sh!t, that helps!

Congrats Mandalorians for the cuppppp!

Thanks!

Dang, I could use that. Just paid 1 UFA ~30M, have 2 more coming up + 1 RFA, another UFA will be pending in 3 days, 'nother one in 6 days, and then 2 more 2 weeks later... Oh and another one another week after that

That's 8 FAs to pay compensations to in about a month. 2 of them are quite old and will probably be less than 10M, but the rest may require me to take out a loan. That extra 9M from finishing 6th won't be much help :/

I may... need to let some of them go But my younger core is not ready! If I have to play 3 lines to win games I'm going to do even worse than I did this season, with some guys at 48 energy now

On my way back up for next season. Will probably start selling off some of my guys with no improvement potential left though.

Will be nice to be in the same league as you again!

Anyone ever get Media offers of 1*, 1*, 3* and I rolled the dice and went for the last offer, it was 1*?

I’ve had something similar happen to me. Can’t remember exactly. Did that happen to you?

Woah, that's rough. I got a 5* offer on the 1st day and jumped on it (and general sponsor was on the 2nd day). Throughout my entire PPM career, media sponsors have been the most generous and consistent for me. I think I never had less than 4* on that one.

1st day of season always feels like a lottery when I can see who dropped CL and who didn't. Among some drops that were to be expected, there are some small disappointments, but my now 18 years old crop that was so good for me keeps on giving. I had 7 players drafted and kept that season (along with 1 market buy) that were all at 6/6 still at 17. That's already pretty good. 5 out of those 8 retained the 6/6 for their 18 year old season. This is going to be a solid crop of players for me!

I've had three 1s and then an auto 1 before. Pretty awesome... XD

Unfortunately, yes.

I got hit pretty hard with C/L drops this season.

Wee, I have now been able to take a glance at our most recent draftees, and let's just say it's overall a bit on the low OR end (there are usually more than 3 400+ OR players).

In II.1, Edmonton Wellcappers, we have:
Deangelo Carruthers (423, 79%)
Arthur Earle (410, 75%)

and in II.3, Microbrasseur:
Alvaro Duerden (405, 84%)

Special mention to
Auguste Bossy (399, 73%) - Rousey Mousey (from II.3)
Brian Fransen (397, 74%) - Ghost Squad

funny story: there is a Deangelo Carruther (no s) in I.1, who has not been examined so far.

There was an A+ in I.1, but I was picking so low I didn't pay that much attention. He was a L or UD is all I remember. Probably Alex Veilleux. He does have an 82% average

So, Trader Phil, you definitely won this draft!

Funny thing about Duerden is he was my 4th round pick. He is leaps and bounds better than any of my other draftees. I am very pleased with him. He does have one weak stat at passing though, so I am thinking of developing him as a winger instead of defenseman. He has a 96 for offense, so it's definitely doable.
