Subject: US Senior National Team

Fair enough. You won the last election so you get to call the shots. I'm glad you shared your POV just so it was clear on what went into the decisions.

I do have to say I disagree for many reasons - but the biggest is that it wasn't an either/or situation like you're presenting it to be. We could have tried to beat all 3 teams, and I think I'll always scratch my head at why that wasn't the obvious approach in a World Championship tournament scenario.

Regardless, I'm sure we all hope we get better results in the future.

^ In other words, I think trying to figure odds made it more complex than it was. Bc waiting to try and beat Sweden wasn't the best odds to advance, if you lay everything out in a decision tree type analysis. Water under the bridge now though.

So who is next for the role of NTC?

Yes I see your reasoning, I just don't feel I am lucky enough to beat both teams.

Building up the depth charts. If you have any players you want to be looked at for NT post here. Thanks.

Info emailed on my games to you

on my guys that is....

I added Broxton, Koch, Glau, Larkin, and Stubblefield (all from foreign teams) to the top of my scouting queue.

So it is looking like I will be winning the elections for Senior Manager. Mrbrightside will be assisting me with the transition and then Xalthos will step in and be the assistant.

I will be running a specialized team on attack and defence. There will be 3 slots for Goalies, 3 slots for Attacking Back wings, 2 slots for Attacking Back Centre, 3 slots for Attacking Wing, 2 slots for attacking Pivots. The same for on the defending side. There will also be 4 two-way slots ( 2 backs, 1 wing , 1 pivot ) This will be a carrying weight of 14 starters , 9 backups and 4 two-way players. 27 Players.

There are 3 open slots that will be reserved for U21 team players, I have asked Lanky , brightside and bulls to offer suggestions.

So this year there will be a full roster of 30 players. Some drops and a concentration on getting chemistry back up on the rearranged lineup.

A building block of a season. I will start to post the depth charts shortly.

Here is the depth charts for the US Senior National team.
Goalies
William Jack will continue his roll as the starter. Currently playing for the Bulldogs Brno (Salt Lake Mountaineers)in the CZech I.1 league. This 22 year old leads the National team in matches played with 64 and has an impressive 34.8 save percentage. CL is an excellent 5/6

Next up the attacking Backs.

Classy move with the pivots, tesco. Horne and Marrero have always been close, so putting your guy in the backup seat while taking over the reigns of the entire team is noteworthy to me and is a great reassurance of trust. I do think Horne has the edge right now.
