Re: AltHL Legacy

Take a lesson to anyone with experience here. Clearly, I have not taken losses lightly and failed to participate in a satisfactory way.

Until expansion draft came along, I will step down indefinately. Thank you for all the journey I've been through.

I'm sorry to hear this, Macbeth. I'm not sure exactly why you feel the need to step down. The legacy project was simply a way to generate backstory for the teams created. The real business starts when the new NHL starts. I hope you'll still participate in the community as we've all very much appreciated your contributions.

I think he just lost interest in owning a team in Quebec. I think he might be more enthusiastic if we expand to Asia.

We'll definitely find a way to get him involved moving forward.

Re: AltHL Legacy

Yeah, it'd be a shame to lose anyone permanently. Now is certainly the time to get involved if you don't care much about where your team is and only want to compete. In the long run, it truly doesn't matter but I, of all people, certainly understand abut forming a connection when it's somewhere close to home. I hope whoever steps up is willing to really build the best hockey team they can!

That's what I'm hoping for. An Asian-based ice hockey team.
Also, let me remind you that I'm not Asian-American, but Asian-Asian. As in, I'm actually an Asian living in Asia.

If the expansion happens in the future, I'll be very happy to step in immediately.

As for the league itself, I'll try to be involved with the league in terms of the jersey design department.
I'm not going anywhere, though. I'll be here until I'll retire.

Re: AltHL Legacy

As nice as it would be to expand into Asia, I'm sure there are other markets in North America that could welcome the Owls with open arms should the new owner choose to move the team.

I agree with you, Tokyo would be fantastic, but the Owls are staying in Quebec City, as FC Macbeth said earlier.

The Owls aren't moving. Period.

Any owner who inherits the Owls is locked into Quebec City.

Re: AltHL Legacy

One thing I think a couple people aren't quite understanding is that everything about this league is chosen by the owners as a collective, not by the individual owners. This isn't like a normal fantasy league where you can pick and chose your team's name, location, logo, etc, but instead is a collective effort. Every location, name, logo, and jersey was decided by the group as a whole, from Boston to Vancouver. So yes, the Owls are staying in Quebec and if we expand those teams will go through the same process. We'll select locations, names, logos, and jerseys, just as we did for the original 18. However, that is a long time coming, as we're going to go through at least one real-life fantasy season (this is just a fantasy league with fancy window dressing) then we'll see what happens from there. Please be patient and understanding, Gritty is figuring out how to best handle this.
