It's no secret that the MSHL rosters page has looked bleak for a while. So, I will speak on this issue.

Unfortunately, the interest in forming teams for MSHL has been half-hearted at best. It shouldn't really be surprising, yet it is still disheartening that at this point in time people are more interested in playing in the RSHL. I feel that the minor league has become a victim of a self-fulfilling prophecy where everyone kind of expected it to go away--even in the middle of the offseason ("Is there going to be a MSHL next season?" "When are we merging the leagues?" "I would form a team but no one else is..")

I have always maintained that it was up to the players whether or not we will hold another season, and I would do whatever it took to make sure we had the necessary staff to make it happen.
It is with a heavy heart though that I must plainly admit to myself: There are not enough interested in playing MSHL anymore.

As of this moment, MSHL is officially suspended indefinitely. As for the teams that did want to play, they are invited to play in the RSHL. Judge and King will fill you in on the details.

Last season, MSHL was fun and intense for those involved, and I'd like to extend my most sincere thanks for participating and helping to make it one of the best seasons to date. Would that it will happen again, some day.

Good joke eh

Waffles had a really off day (apparently he was ill) and HMM took full advantage to mercy HV in under 2 periods. Judge69 possibly set a preseason record scoring 2 goals in the first 15 seconds.

1st Noodles- (4g,5a)
2nd Judge69 (3g,1a)
3rd Dege (2g,1a)

Here is the preseason schedule. There are still three teams that have no updated their availabilities. If you don't not have them selected before the season starts, I am just going to go in and select them all for you. I have scheduled our two remaining MSHL teams for a preseason game against RSHL teams as there is a strong possibility that they will be invited to join the RSHL once Arnk makes a final decision on the MSHL.

Preseason schedule will be out soon. Update your availabilities if you haven't already.

The only team I have team art for that isn't already on the site is High Voltage. The deadline for getting your art in will be whenever the regular season starts, sometime in September. Forum PM me a link or something.

	1st	2nd	3rd	Final
Rich Kids Win Again	2	0	0	2
Interference	2	0	3	5

Total game time: 36:00

This game was a lot closer than the final score indicates. Going into the third period, this game was tied at two. Perhaps if some of the Rich Kids bought new modems, this game could have gone differently. There were a lot of lagouts by the Rich Kids. This isn't to downplay how good Interference was, as they proved to be the better team.



Congratulations Interference, w0 Memorial Cup champions!!

Congratulations to Rich Kids Win Again and Interference for advancing to the finals. Here are the finals matchups:

Rich Kids Win Again @ Interference -> Wed Aug 25 2010 10:00 PM
Interference @ Rich Kids Win Again -> Thu Aug 26 2010 10:00 PM

Game three, if necessary, would be on Monday, August 31st at 10:00 PM.

Hello and congratulations to the four teams that advanced to the playoffs (in order of seed): Underdogs, Interference, Mazer, and Rich Kids Win Again. There will be a single elimination semifinals round followed by a best of three finals this week. Here are the semifinals matchups:

Mazer (5-3-0) @ Interference (6-2-0) -> Mon Aug 23 2010 9:00 PM
Rich Kids Win Again (4-3-1) @ Underdogs (8-0-0) -> Mon Aug 23 2010 10:00 PM

Please note, the Underdogs @ Breakaway game previously scheduled for Thursday, August 19 at 10pm has been moved up an hour, so the new gametime will be Thursday, August 19 at 9pm. The game was moved due to the RSFL finals requiring another game. Thanks and sorry for the relatively short notice!

Hello Hockey Friends,

I would like to make an announcement. Arnk has always requested that I try and find an assistant league coordinator that can potentially take over as LC in the future. Today I have decided to finally do that. Starting today King- will be the Assistant League Coordinator. I am allowing King- to make all the decisions of a league coordinator to make sure the RSHL runs smoothly. However, I will still be here to make sure that any decision that is made isn't completely off the wall as will Arnk. I will also be scheduling the games.

So lets all welcome King and wish him the best of luck!

These are all the remaining games left to play for the cup. The next week will have a best of three finals between the two highest point-getters in the tournament.

Hello Hockey Friends,

I created the preseason for RSHL and MSHL, so captains can start adding players. I am not 100% sure how things will be going down this season. I want to see how rosters shape up and if any teams don't make it, but there is a strong possibility that MSHL teams and RSHL teams will be playing each other this season and these games will affect overall records when it comes to playoffs.

PLEASE NOTE:
If you didn't give me a team name yet, please give me one before you start adding players. I have to kill your current team and create a team under your new name.

Also if I put the wrong captain on your team, let me know.

Thanks!

Hello Hockey Friends,

I wanted to give everyone an update on how next season is coming along.

So far the RSHL is looking like the following teams:
1. Mazer
2. hmm
3. Creasers
4. Dirtybirds
5. Baby Seal Killers
6. Breakaway
7. Money Corp
8. High Voltage (Trick)
9. Interference
10. Slasher Park Blades

Recently two additional teams have expressed interest in joining the RSHL:
11. Underdogs
12. Scorgasms/Legends (Goldeye)

As far as the MSHL comes, I only have three teams that have expressed interest:
1. Admirals
2. Metropolis Hockey Organization (Gufando & Reppo)
3. Team to be name later (Eatons)
4. Team formed by King-

There might be an additional Euro team in the works, but nothing conclusive yet.

I am going to give it another week (Aug 8th) to see if there are more teams with interest out there for the MSHL. If not, we will begin thinking about the best way to conduct next season, so that everyone can play.

Hi. I scheduled the next batch of games:

Hmm @ Allow Us Winnir -> Tue Jul 27 2010 9:00 PM

Hello RSHL & MSHL coaches, players, & fans. We are looking at a late august to an early september start of the RSHL season depending on when the white_0men memorial cup ends. With that being said we need to figure out how many teams the RSHL will have this season. Also, I would like to get an idea on how many potential MSHL teams we will have. Depending on the number of overall teams we have, the idea of possibly combining into one league has been discussed (only on the surface, so don't get your boxers in a bunch just yet).

As of right now the returning RSHL teams are:
Mazer
hmm
Creasers
Dirtybirds
Baby Seal Killers
Breakaway
Money Corp

Not Returning:
Twolves

Still waiting on response:
Reppowarriors
Scorgasms

MSHL captains, please post on the MSHL captains board if your team is planning on returning.

If you are interested in either starting a RSHL team or MSHL team, please send me a forum message giving me your league name, team name, and which league you would like to play in just RSHL, just MSHL, or either. I do not need a potential roster.

Thanks!
