@Fluw @BadWolf incredibly proud of the fantastic community and locker room you've developed here in Yukon. Thank you for drafting me, and letting me be a part of something so great. Also huge thank you to you both for the time you've spent guiding me through the early stages of this game, advice you've provided on my build, and the support you've offered as I transitioned from displeasure over my player's performance to pride in being the only SMJHL player who played the full season without scoring. It is truly greatly appreciated.   (I understand it may be part of the job, but you didn't have to take the job.)

Thank you @Aephino @trashae for drafting me and my boy @Mayuu on the same team. I love that man IRL and it’s a joy that we get to play together. Thanks for the first season Falcons!

I love how intentionally caring everybody is, I do miss how unhinged Detroit used to be, however, the morning checkins, small banter, and coffeeee are lovely reminders that we are a beautiful communiy

A big thank goes to @Fluw, @BadWolf and whole team of Yukon. Guys, you are incredeble ^_^. I'm glad that I started my hockey career with you. And I will try to give my best in the playoffs to thank you)

Sig by @enigmatic

Here comes the sappy post..

First off, thank you to @Aephino for finally convincing me to create a player and join. I was against it for awhile and thought it was super nerdy but taking the chance on it was so worth it. I have truly enjoyed my time here so far (and thank you for helping me whenever I have no clue what something means or what is going on)

@sve7en @Frenchie Thank you for taking a chance on ole Betzee Nickelback. From my conversation with Sve7en, I knew I wanted to go to Carolina and I have not regretted it. You two care so much about Carolina and not only the players in the game but the individuals behind them. I am so happy to be apart of a team with GM's who have so much passion for it. And a final thank you on helping build Betzee Nickelback

@sliceruser Thank you for making me feel so welcomed in the LR. Being the newbie it is obviously terrifying because I had no clue what was going on PLUS know nothing about hockey but your presence in the LR quickly allowed me to feel a lot more comfortable. You are such a reliable person to reach out to whenever us rookies have no clue what is going on. And your end of the game updates is ALWAYS useful

Well I have to first start by thanking @Eggcracker for scouting me and putting in a good word with   you're an incredible person and despite me talking constant shit too you in the locker room I will miss you as my captain #gosensgo. Second I have to thank my wonder gm @Fluw and wonder full co-gm @BadWolf thank you for trading to get me! I feel so lucky to be apart of the    family. You're both incredibly helpful and I love that you don't force me into a meta build allowing me to have the creative freedom to make my player of my dreams. 

Thanks to @Frenchie for the recruiting post that lead me here. Without you getting the word out I never would have known this place existed.

Thanks to @trashae for the great chat when i was going through waivers and getting in touch with various GM's. Was really glad DET was able to get me in the waiver order after that conversation.

And thanks to @Aephino for keeping such a good vibe in the LR. That first week was tough but every single person knew we were going to pull out of it. And I think everyone has even brighter outlooks for the future of the team. Thanks to everyone who stayed involved this year!

I'd like to thank the whole Carolina Kraken management and team for making me feel welcome and helping me through my rookie season in the J. @sve7en @Frenchie @Pyro182 in particular have been awesome, responsive, and supportive. So glad I got picked up by this great group of guys and gals.

I really appreciate sburbine on discord for helping me get used to this whole system and guiding me on where to go and what stats to allocate points to.

Thanks to Snussu and Arty for drafting me
Honestly, I didn't expect such friendly lads
Even though I'm currently in hospital still I can say thanks for making me feel comfortable in the team I'm not a very talkative person but thanks Kelowna
