Funny, we can't score, so instead of goals for donations we will change it to assists, might get lucky and get a 50 dollars.

Yes

And make sure to note that Lt. Colonel Larry has enjoyed success on the western front in Arizona with 2 goals in 2 games

We don't know yet if he's a c, let alone a 1C. They should try it now that the season is over but of course they wont
- jcragcrumple


Yup, time to put him at C...normally I'd suggest 3C, but he should just play 2C with Hall, and maybe Reinhart? Put Olo on L1 with Skinner and Jack.

I wouldn’t trade Eichel to Boston (or Toronto or Montreal)
But i would let those teams think they have a chance & bid on him to drive up the price

- jdfitz77

The last thing we want to do is face Eichel on a regular basis. LA probably our key trading partner.

I’d find a way to move Eichel, Skinner, Okposo, Miller and extend Hall if he’d agree to a 6.5x3,4

Day 946

We are.. still here. This island of hopelessness. Despair. Animosity. Greif. Our God has long abandoned us, choosing to shine his light upon the golden arch of St. Louis. Ah, the main land, how I dream of it. I'm brought back to this agonizing reality that every time a new commander is put in charge to get us off this god forsaken place, he makes false promises and let's us down time and time again. Like the leaders that have come before him, we've called for his head and will continue doing so until we have it on a pike. We will joyously call out into the night that we're finally saved, and will have renewed optimism of escaping the Devil's Anus upon the arrival of our new commander.

Life has become difficult here. A band of trolls come to our camp nightly, often throwing their feces at us and themselves. We try to sleep, but their constant babbling about root beer and shine boxes has left us equally confused and terrified. I heard one of them rambling on about the One True God, who has left us long ago. The denizens of this island are no longer interested in the worship of this being, and it has become clear that only these extremist trolls keep him close to their cold, dead hearts.

A plague has been making it's way around the island this past year, and has made life insufferable. The good doctor has been mindlessly wandering for days, asking people to properly dispose of their straws and rather conveniently handing out his herbal hallucinogenics. I recall witnessing him have a two hour conversation with a sandcastle the other day. I was left bumfuzzled.

Elsewhere, the team responsible for getting us off of this island has been shuffled since my last entry. The Church of Larry has closed its doors and moved to Phoenix. A wonderful area this time of year. Legend has it that this Demigod is one of the most power men in the universe. Many doubt these legends. A boy named Kahun was sent to Siberia as punishment for his demand of more rations. A few more men were sent out to sea and we wish them well.

Sadly for the men who were air dropped into this sad existence, they've managed to be even less useful than the men we removed from our ranks! A man named Hall was supposed to assist our fearless leader, Captain Eichel, get us out of here. Instead, they've been bumbling about, as our commander has restricted their movements and are requiring they turn sand to gold. Mr. Reinhart and his boy, Dylan, has seemingly had the most success among the group, at least managing to put together some remnants of an escape vehicle. Some say the team needs more men to show passion. Others say they demand some donnybrook. We continue to be firebombed daily into submission. We yell out to the skies that we have no fight left, yet the bombing continues. Our commander let's us know everything is fine and to be patient. He tells taradiddles to us to keep us in line. Malarkey! We see through the lies. Bloviate fool. Half of us have lost extremities. Surely, this is not fine.

I sit here today not really wondering what we need, what we should have, and how it should be approached. My companions and I simply seek a way of escape, no matter the cost. Heaven save us.

Keep Hall, trade Eichel.

Jim Halpert reaction.

- TheSabresTaco

The reality is we are not getting what we need to fix this team for anyone but Eichel. We can stay near the bottom of the league for the next 3 years and continue to talk about how you don’t trade away a “franchises” or “generational” player, or we can entertain offers now while interest is high. It’s not a trade Eichel, keep Hall mentality. I’m just stating the obvious on Eichel and saying if Hall is willing to resign for cheap, why not sign him?

I would think even if they thought of moving Eichel it wouldn't come until the offseason, lot more teams could get involved.

How audacious of us to assume our best players need to be removed to make this a winning franchise.

I would assume that is the logical path. Take some offers at the deadline to measure interest and return.

Okposo, Skinner and Miller?
Eichel is our most talented player but a horrible, immature leader who has had 6 seasons to mature into one. The culture is massively broken here. Are we doing Eichel or ourselves any favors by forcing him into a role he clearly does not want? Are we doing ourselves or Eichel any favors by seeing if the next 2,3 years will get any better?
If we wait until he demands a trade, which he will because that’s what will happen, his value drops substantially.
