So many great persons on this site, the first mention would go to all my former teamates in Kelowna during my 2 times there.

My first introduction to the site was made easy by my first SMJHL GM @Muerto. He drafted new guys first on our team and the result was a really tight glued group. Everyone wanted to perform and have fun, we got to enjoy chatting on chatzy a lot and overall it was a really good social experience. I am happy to be his teamate right now as he is overall a cool headed guy and being a bit older than me both IRL and in the league he feels like a mentor to me.

Then, in the GM approach, @JNH was also a person I enjoyed to play for and felt grateful to for drafting my first player in the SHL, the thing I remember the most about him were when he went out partying and had good stories to tell. I went inactive and couldn't enjoy the real SHL life but I'm sure I would have enjoyed the time I would have spent in Toronto.

@Narconis Another player I have to give a shoutout is Barney Stinson. We had a very similar experience at the time on the site being both new, both defenseman, both drafted in Kelowna and somewhat under the radar and then he went on to be a great member of the website. I had lots of fun experiencing the league with him as we both got drafted in Toronto after our rookie seasons. Also, he always tags me in his stuff so I had to return the favor here But yeah he always seemed like a dude I would be great friend with in real life.
