			Congrats Pat. One of the most dominant CPHL playoffs I think we've seen. 
 
 
 Instructions for the off-season will be posted today or tomorrow, and then trading can resume and what not. Do not submit trades until that post goes up.

			Another close game but came up short in overtime .  Congrats Pat!  I agree with Grant this may have been the most dominant playoffs I’ve seen.  Even when I got to Gibson the players would step up.  Looking forward to making some changes in the off-season and trying to get back here next year.

			Yeah I can't recall ever seeing someone sweep the finals? And the Devils swept the finals AND semi-finals. That's dominance.

			Wow, after how many years in this league I finally win.
 Congrats Ravi on a great season.
 
 Gibson finishes 15-1-1 in the playoffs. I was able to tweak the sliders to try to ensure I had under 30 shots in order to keep Gibson rolling. Luckily I was able to stay completely healthy throughout the entire playoffs as well.

			Congrats Pat!! Happy to see you win. I think you finally unlocked something after years of trying. Great stuff. Happy to see a long time GM seal the deal. Inspiring stuff for GMs still searching for their first cup.

			I wasn't surprised when the Devils beat me, cause the first round always kills us.Caps gave them the biggest fight but McDavid flopped SIM post season mimics that of the real life.
 Goffie was having a helluva run, especially when he got rid of McDufus so I thought he was gonna upset Pat.
 I thought Ravi would have been a much harder test for Pat though.
 Gibson was great but Pat did an amazing job re-tooling that entire team.
 
 The cool thing about these finals is that both GMs took less than great teams and turned them around quickly. Hard to bet against Matthew, MacKinnon and Makar but the Devils are absolutely stacked.
 
 The bad news for the rest of the league is both teams have 11 x 1st round picks between them for the next 2 years and a solid prospect base too, so their futures are still bright.
 
 Congrats to Pat on the win and congrats to Ravi for a hellua run as well.
