[Daradon]

I believe I deserve strong consideration for the Darryl Sutter award for a few reasons.

I took over the Canadiens almost exactly at the 25% mark of the season. I quickly released a state of the franchise thread and jumped right into the trade market. In a league that encourages trading and activity I turned over about 35% of my roster in less than one full year.

I did my best to encourage rivalries, and while Montreal's two historical rivals (Boston, Toronto) weren't really in a position to be rivals this year I heated up a rivalry with Ottawa and the SE champs Winnipeg.

Even though I wasn't able to keep the cup run going, I did finish with 104 points, a total I believe exceeded my predecessors previous year, and just missed snagging the NE crown.

Lastly, and most importantly, I tried my best to be a full member of the CPHL. While not posting as much as a lot of the regulars and heavy hitters, I did my best to comment on most game threads, even if I was not playing, jumped in many discussion threads, and even started a few of my own. I hope a few of the threads I wrote from character perspective brought a laugh or two, I know I had fun writing them. I was an active member of the CPHL in both running my team and adding to the community. Now that I know how the league runs, I hope to do a lot more of this next year.
