Guys we have a new Montreal Owner - ISLTwins has requested and retained temporary ownership rights over the team.
Canadians /bwyant3255/ISLTwins (Assuming MTL)
Please coordinate Montreal's games prospectively with ISLTwins/bwyant3255.
MTL will retain flex rights for the next couple of weeks to catch up on any games outstanding - thank for your help ISL!
Thanks,
CAD2K7

I have the up most respect for cad and the N.J owner, but I do not agree with this decision. If New Jersy takes over Montreal it would be fine for season play but what about the playoffs. I have no doubts that Montreal would make the playoffs as an 7th or 8th seed. This would give him 2 spots in the playoffs. The problem with this is what if New Jersey and Montral met in the playoffs, we would have to sim a great round of hockey. Furthermore, Carolina,St.Louis and Pittsburgh, two of these teams would miss the playoffs. I say eliminate Montreal all together and let's not waste a playoff sopt give it to a player so we dont we have to sim a round in the playoffs. Just a thought let me know what you guys think

I understand your point here Sports - we will work to find another owner but in the meantime we need to get the games played... We will ensure that no owner has two teams into playoffs - if that mean that if we cant find a replacement prior to playoffs then I will discuss with ISL about giving one of the teams to another owner. In the meantime I am very appreciative that ISL is willing to help us out by keeping things moving in case we cant find a suitable owner in time - I know you feel the same way as we have all been eager to get these ownership positions filled to keep the schedule moving. I do not think we can simply remove the team - it doesnt appear as if that is possible once the season has started. PS - I can't believe you said I am going to miss the playoffs LOL!

lol cad i think you will get in.... but two of those three teams will not. Just as long as N.J doesn't get two teams in the playoffs, i would hate to see a round simmed.
