You must think I'm the only Rookie, as I'm a very bland poster who offers very little, lol. The only other Rookies I can think of on the board are Matz03 and Ori. Matz has less than 100 posts and most of them are probably way above what I'm capable of, lol. You should pencil him in instead.

 

[Ivyy13]

FireSather for the Alain Vigneault Award.

Was trying to remember his username, thanks!

You're worthy yourself, don't be modest. You can definitely hold your own even with only 3 months under your belt.

In my first year, I was asking around the trade forums about what it would take to trade for Mike Green

This place has taught me a lot about the game, how to watch more analytically, and which young guys are ready to break out, etc.

We will also be awarding Mod of the Year, but there's nominees for that already lol

Ah yes, the Aufheben Award.
