I do agree on the quality of GMs we have here now, I remember my first year in FNHL there was some drama. That’s all been cleaned up, this is hands down the best league around.
Ideally we bring in new blood either as owner of Seattle or an existing owner sells their team before being allowed to buy expansion Seattle Kraken. Endgame gave a good example of letting go of Anaheim before taking over Seattle if he's chosen to run the Kraken.I think the goal is to invite the best hockey people around. Don't get me wrong, I think we have a great group of owners in FNHL (I'm actually shocked I haven't sniffed a trace of drama in FNHL. Definitely rare and welcome in fantasy sports). But we want new playmates in this sandbox don't we?
* Note: Given there are currently multiple offers to buy this franchise, PigsRule & myself will be conducting interviews via PM to determine the new owner of this Franchise.

For sure. We want motivated people in this sandbox. We're soon going to be 32 teams deep and we don't want anyone letting a franchise slide to the point of no return in FNHL. We want gents to step up and fight for the pot of gold at the end of the FNHL rainbow. PR and I have a good sense of whats needed and will be talking to the 5-6 interested parties who want to pay to play in this big o'sandbox.
Currently, there are 5 firm offers to purchase the Seattle Kraken expansion franchise for $185.00USD.PM interviews with interested buyers beginning Tues Oct 27th. New owner of will be announced Oct 31st (on Fantrax and Profsl).
