We'll give the Calgary GM another hour or so just to be fair but yeah it seems unlikely he'll be back on the board given his number of posts and last board appearance.

After another disappointing finish in the standings, GM Jay Feaster has been disposed of and the whole coaching staff removed from their post. GM Soli has but up for sale signs around all of his players necks. Notably, Jerome Iginla, Miika Kiprusoff, Jay Bouwmeester, Mark Giordano, and Mike Cammallari are on the block for the best offer of prospects and picks.
"Looking mostly at prospects, picks are a secondary concern"

Washington, DC - March 5, 2012 - Hockey fans in The Capital city are reeling. After news broke that the cities most recognizable face has been traded away to Edmonton Canada, fans of Alexander Ovechkin have asked the same question over and over again... "why"?
In a press conference held earlier today, GM Mowzie admitted that the reason he moved Ovechkin was because everyone already had an Ovechkin jersey, and merchandise sales were falling rapidly. "We needed a new face, a new name... a new cash cow." Mowzie feels Jordan Eberle will provide that, at a fraction of the cost nonetheless.
In order to ensure merchandise sales go up, Mowzie has asked all Ovechkin fans to throw their Ovechkin memorabilia in to a local river, in exchange for a $10 discount on a Jordan Eberle jersey.
When asked why he has traded every notable Russian player and prospect on the roster, Mowzie simply replied, "they're names are too hard to pronounce."
Another good question I was asked, will I be readjusting ratings for players on NHL 12? Yes I will be. I don't forsee me posting EVERY single players new rating on here but I think what I'll do is post the players whose rating increases or decreases by more than 4. Would that be fair?
Would anyone be interested in acquiring the rights to Stuart? A team has reportedly offered a 3rd round pick but the Red Wings are willing to ship his rights to the highest bidder.
