The regular season has come to an end, and that's always a nice time to look back and get some perspective.

It's also a good time to be thankful, or appreciative in some other way. You can use this thread to say something legitimately nice about someone else in the league.

Honestly, to the people of the St Louis Scarecrows, the Nevada Battleborn, and to the recruiters from every corner of the J and SHL alike, thank you for being such kind persons - it was a little intimidating joining this community at the beginning, but all of you made it just wonderful. Special thanks go to Gwen, Naomi, Popol, Cake, Kahri, Love, Pyro, and Ozzy - it just wouldn’t be the same without you <3

I of course have to say thank you to our GM, ThePyroAlpaca for entrusting me to be apart of this Kelowna Knights squad. It has been nice to play in the SMJHL so far and help the team in anyway I could have.

I'd like to thank @Seany148 and @Shiamus for letting me start my career in Vancouver as a DFA, it was an absolute pleasure hanging out with you guys in the LR, and getting to pull off that series win upset was icing on the cake.

@lore @Evok ty for being good sim leeg friendos <3 

@retuperkele @Figgy ty for giving me a new home in the J! GO BOATS

I have enjoyed all of my scouting conversations with GMs at both the SHL and the SMJHL levels. And the ones who I missed the notifications for have been very gracious in accepting my apologies.

@RAmenAmen Thank you for your input on attributes and player creation and saving me from putting a ton of points into bravery for no reason as a non-physical forward. @Evok Thank you for offering to buy me that pizza that time, sorry I spent three years pretending like you'd tricked me.

Big shoutout to southpaw who drafted me and has helped me a lot coming back to the league. Also so happy to be part of a cup contender.

One of the first interactions I had, and I have mentioned this before, was being Scouted by RamenAmen.  It was a great scouting interaction and made me feel like this would be a good league experience.
