This league isn't going to be very good next season A lot of good teams even in AAA are gutting.

IMO they need to cut into 4 tiers, but go down to A (and combine it with uncapped minors). Then WL promotes top 4 instead of 2. Leagues just aren't deep enough anymore!

good. i can take a breather and focus on my own team a bit

I've decided to help Kodiak Bears OC, who should be moving up here given the number of guts

Yellowknife will be going from the oldest team in CPL to the youngest. Unfortunately, most of next season will be the same as this year: staving off relegation with mis-aged dots. Get ready to face Season 10 dots!

It will be brutal but at least we'll be watching them improve rather than watching the reverse.

Alright, the original posts for each conference have been updated...and we're looking at twelve (12!!!) vacancies that will be filled between teams demoting from the World League and teams being promoted from Canada AAA 1 & 2...here's a look at the likely Candidates:

I'm not sure if Iqaluit is going to accept it, either.

Hope Kodiak comes up

Cobden is re-loading for next season with 30+ new players coming up from the farm teams to replace our aging vets

It seems like so many teams are having issues as the older guys start to retire I'm hoping that they come up with something to help improve stability among teams as we love to have rivalries

I asked Bort about that specifically during the Q&A. He said that he prefers all teams and players to have a chance at Pro/WL. So no, nothing will change. Reload or die.

Ontario will be rebuilding, and moving down to the minors. 90% of the roster will be retiring, and our next generation of players have already been created.

I will be requesting a move back into the Canadian region when we get back to AA, and hope to see some of the same team names once again.

Ummm, we aren't moving down...unless you just meant we will be worse, which is possible.

Strom meant reloading in a good way, and the new team we are starting is a farm (which upon re-reading wasn't mentioned in this thread, must have been another.

We start recruiting day 1 of the previous season, so we are usually pretty set for each season.

The Nebraska Maniac Gorillas is set with a full roster ready to sign up! So we should be ready to compete right away....... losing is not a option anymore !

Of course that just promotes gutting and starting over.....I'm hoping at least they figure out something for a farm team set-up as I read he was in favor of that.
