Sven Svenson Gracefully Retires
#1

It is with mixed emotions that I announce the retirement of Sven Svenson.  Sven was created in January of 2020 and has brought me joy for the better part of three and a half years.  Through Sven, I got into GMing with the Raptors where I proudly got to draft a long line of future GMs that has seen Colorado maintain homegrown GMs since before my time.  I got to experience a full rebuild with San Francisco (two actually) that I never thought I would stick around through, but I guess I found myself more loyal to some great GMs than I would've initially thought.  It's unfortunate that we never won the Challenge Cup in SFP, but such is life.  Most importantly, I made a lot of friends along the way and hopefully brought some joy and laughs to those I interacted with through Sven.

Sven's accomplishments include:

- Conceived in the basement of a Swedish rink
- 16 seasons played with SFP
- 1,035 Games Played; 393 Goals; 470 Assists; 863 Points *with 5 games remaining in S71
- Participated in 8 fights, deemed to have won 3
- SFP all-time leader in Goals, Points, and Power Play Goals
- S61 and S62 IIHF Top Forward Award Winner
- Adopted Son of King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden
- S63 Ron Mexico Award Winner
- S68 Gold Medal Winner
- Sired Johnny Wagner-Svenson

Sven will retire back to Sweden where he will patiently await his chance to claim the Swedish throne.

I'm feeling a bit too lazy to shout out all the friendly users along the journey, but I suspect you know who you are: S53 draft class, Colorado Dino Gang, SFP Friends, Swedes, and many other SHL denizens.  A more relaxing recreate will be incoming.

“The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the Age that gave it birth comes again. ... There are neither beginnings nor endings to the Wheel of Time. But it was a beginning.”
