Icon35 An announcement (update: may 23 2020)

2020-21 will be my final season as NYI general manager and I will resign as Islanders GM immediately following the conclusion of the 2021 playoffs

I was originally intending to resign this summer but my malignant cap situation has necessitated that I remain onboard for one more year.

Here's to one more kick at the can. I thought I was finding direction as this team's GM, but I had it all backwards. Now that I've figured all that out, I have a new path to follow towards making this team better and hopefully returning to the finals.

-scorp

an update:

Upon a few weeks of careful consideration I have decided that I will no longer be leaving the league at the conclusion of the 2020-21 season. I posted the previous announcement at a lower point in my own personal life and after seeing the renewed excitement abound in the league with fantastic new GMs in the last few weeks I have decided to reconsider. This league is too fun and i know I would miss it too much.

Cheers
-scorp

I think its great that you're staying on Scorp


It would have been rough seeing the league needing to fold the Islanders franchise
