Admittedly I would've preferred not to have to do this, but we had a good applicant with plenty of EHM experience and I felt it was important to give the Bolts a good chance to add to their storied history, so:

Please welcome Guillaume Jalbert as the new GM of the Tampa Bay Lightning. He comes via referral from Marty (OTT), so he ought to be a good one.

Hello !

As MrShark writes, my name is Guillaume Jalbert, you can call me Jalt.

I have been on the EHM league for a long (too) long haha. I'm glad to be able to join this league that my friend has been talking to me for a while.
I am aware that tampa has quite a significant history, so I will do my best to continue this history;)

ps1: I speak french so it's a little like my english is a bit archaic.

ps2: nobody touches Seguin

Hope giving you another defeat during the season!!

Welcome!

Guess my brief time as the league newbie is over. My, uh, reign was good while it lasted?

This feels all kinds of weird but welcome. Did Dan tell you the salary cap is considerably lower for you than it is for the rest of us until about February?

Big shoes to fill.

What do you mean by saying "hoping to give you another defeat next season"?
Anyway.

Welcome to the league Jalt.

That's coming in the next newsletter, along with the selection of new simmers based on prior regular season point totals.

I like the sound of that. Whoever finishes last gets rewarded with lottery odds and punished with simming duty.

Justin (previous GM) always tried to bank as much cap space as he could during the season so he could load up at the deadline.
