Title: TOP 10 FNHL OWNERS
Post by: PsychoticPondGoons on May 02, 2015, 03:19:39 PM
This is clearly a subjective list and like a-holes, we all have an opinion so let's hear it.

My list goes like this:

1. :FLO: Pigsrule
The league is where it is because he invested the cash and the time to pull it from the gutter! And he even brought me out of retirement and back into fantasy sports (you're a bastard PR LOL).

2. :CHI-NHL: :CLS: PsychoticPondGoons
The co-commish gets love from himself! OF COURSE! This role takes a crap load of GD good drinking time out of my days so you know I love this league and you guys to to do all this free labor!!!

3. :NAS: :NYR: :ANA: :MON-NHL: e40
The man deserves a lot of credit for lifting the entire league to where it is today by investing in four franchises last season as we went through a major transition from free to paid money league. Here's to a great owner, sports fan and Profsl AND FNHL investor. :toast:

4. :OTT: :LAK: DickieDunn
Looking at the league history and draft positions, I'm reminded DD took over Ottawa as a last place team and turned them into the Presidents' Trophy winner the next season. Then followed that up by leading newly purchased Kings franchise to a perfect season, the Presidents' Trophy and the FNHL Championship!

5. :PHI-NHL: Papps
Papps gets props for his sheer staying power as a founding owner of FNHL, his ability to Bobby Clarke it up around here from time to time and go hard into the corners year after year.

6. :TOR-NHL: Thunderblade
He gets the same love from me for being a founding owner, the only other one left in FNHL since 2010. Unfortunately his FNHL Buds are in serious need of some TLC if they want to compete otherwise they might as well follow the lead of the NHL Leafs and do a major rebuild.

7. :WIN: :NYI: JohnnyWeissFlog
Ranks slightly higher than Izaman on my list because he's invested in a second franchise. He competes hard and makes things happen. Also those Jets of his have been a major pain for my Hawks since he joined. Bring it on in 2015-16. :thumbsup:

8. :DET-NHL: Izaman3
Initially helped with the rebuilding effort in :PIT-NHL: then moved onto :DET-NHL: when the Wings were looking for new ownership. He's been keeping the Wings near or at the top of one of the toughest divisions in FNHL, Atlantic Division ever since! He can build a winner!

9. :WAS-NHL3: :EDM: Jonathan
Another guy who's been around for some time. Initially lead the :STL-NHL: Blues then took over :WAS-NHL3: when they were searching for new ownership. Then he reupped and invested in another FNHL franchise to support the league. He also knows when to stir it up. Got my respect in a lot of ways. :toast:

10. :COL-NHL: SlackJack (also recent owner of :CAR-NHL:)
Slack introduced FNHL to a second great owner in Fav_zomg (who just missed the Top 10 cut) when he bought a second franchise in his first year. We love the guys who have invested time and money into the league. Doesn't stop there. Slack was likely the busiest owners at the Trade Deadline in February completing what must be a record 12 trades. Has any other owner made more deals at the deadline? Doubt it. He looks to come from on the DD School of Franchise Rebuilding. :rofl: :thumbsup:

Thx PPG.
But I owe you a ton of the credit for keeping the machine well oiled. :toast:
In a 30 team league we need to keep things running smoothly.

I like the setup in FNHL so I made the ultimate buy-in! Of course I originally only signed on to commish for 1yr. Oh well!!!

Yes, PR gets the credit. The league was a dumpster fire when I got here, he came in a made it what it is today. We used to have 2 fantrax's, and no organization. It would take hours to find a fa. I honestly don't even know who was Commish when I got here, it was that bad.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I've been here since the start of the 2011-12 season and remember what Jonathan is talking about with the 2 Fantrax sites. That was screwed up.

PR paid for the league to all be on 1 Fantrax site his first yr as commish out of his own pocket. I was thinking of bailing but he's turned things around. Then there was that clown who said he would commish then disappeared. SIZZ something with the Geno avatar. Brutal.

I think Snugerud deserves an honourable mention and same for JackDaniels.
Both those guys have lifted the level of play up since they joined. Both are busy guys. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Slack of course. He's only been he 1yr.
Sure he stirs it but what has he won.

JackDaniels :bump:  Slackjack  :thumbsup:

Oh, let me answer that! SlackJack has won um....the greater esteem of PPG as evidenced by a Top 10 FNHL Owner write-up! Or something like that. Anyways, these ones go to eleven.  :rofl:

I'd move JD up to #1 without question. He netted the Devils a legitimate G (Valaromov) before moving on to Boston. All he has done in Boston was finish # 1 and #2 in the last 2 years. He has Calgary headed in the same direction.  :toast: 

DD comes in at #2, Ripper #3,  then everyone else.  :P

More seriously, I think it would be a positive not to have a list like this and to replace it with a something like the Ted Lindsay Award. An award for the "Most Outstanding  GM" in the FNHL, as voted by fellow GM's would be a prestigious accomplishment.

LOL

You can have that in the other leagues. :rofl:

We like ranking you guys.
That's our entertainment.

Democracy is flawed in award voting.
Not to mention is gets drawn out and someone has to do the math.
Then we have to name them after old hockey players that I might've seen but guys under 50 can't begin to understand how good they really were in their time. LOL

YEH! There's definitely a call out factor. AND WE LIKE THAT IN FNHL.

But if your gents all want awards someone can definitely organize it. We are all volunteers around here.

With Thunderblade announcing his retirement from FNHL earlier this wk, I'll slot JackDaniels into the #10 spot.
