Just want to give credit to Hunter where credit's due. You took over a pretty broken down roster without much to brag about. I felt bad, and lobbied you for Pitt's roster. You didn't complain or fluster, and just quietly began rebuilding the Wings. Looking over your team now just several months later, I am very impressed with what you've done. RNH, Couture, Shaw, Burakovsky, Rattie, Myers, Murphy, Mason, Cousins, Bigras, Sprong, Honka, Theodore. These are all great pieces to build around. And this is just from the top of my head, I am probably missing a bunch.
Our league has an amazing core group of guys that have stuck through thick and thin and devoted a lot of time to building, rebuilding, competing, and repeating. Unfortunately we've also seen people leave, good ones and bad ones. It's not often we see someone come in, and do all the right things in the face of uncertainty. So I tip my hat to you, Hunter. I'd like to think we have added a new member to that core - one who understands the game, and shares our passion. The Wings are in good hands, great job man.

Thanks a lot man! I've loved being a part of this awesome league and I cant wait for the years ahead. I've done my best to turn around this team without sacrificing my future players, and I feel I've done pretty good! I gotta thank all of you guys too! you welcomed me into the league and everyone has helped me in some way since day one, I've been part of other leagues where there's always one guy to to stir the pot and i'm glad I can be apart of such a tight knit group of hockey fans like me! so thank you guys!

Here here! I too have been impressed with Hunter as a GM, too often we get new guys who just go through the motions and fade away over time, but Hunter is involved and helps make it all more fun for the rest of us, definitely a good egg

Echo Eug's thoughts - Red Wings are in very good hands going forward.

The majority of all of our trades are with Philly.....lol. I already told Hunter in a PM that I thought he was doing a great job, so I'll add my public acknowledgement to the rest of the guys. It's great to see a new GM be so dedicated.
