Your 2018-2019 GHL Champions - The Cleveland Barons

[Glenn-Philadelphia]

Congratulation Brian on a fantastic season. You were the class of the league right out of the gate, although Jerseys fast start caused quite a stir as well.

You dominated from beginning to end and were rewarded with the championship once again. I will note you next years (20-21) dues as having been paid as well.

I will look to get the new banner and jewels updated over the next few days.

I know in the past you have done some fine work in creating some top quality podcasts. I am sure I can speak for many in the league that would urge you to consider creating one to cover your strategy to create and maintain a successful franchise.

This bookend for last years championship in conjunction with your earlier championship gives you 3 out of 9 championships in the contemporary era and can leave no doubt in anyone's mind that the Baron's are a dynasty.

Well done good sir, well done.

[Brian-Cleveland]

Thanks, Glenn. As is tradition, I will pay next year's dues (19-20). Take your time with the spoils of victory. I'd rather you spend that time on the cards.

The podcast might not be a bad idea. Haven't had time to do that in a while. I don't think it's much of a secret though. I've tried to have good offensive and defensive players up front. This year was probably the best I've had. All 4 lines had at least a 50 on defense. I think my top 2 lines were 90+ on offense and my 3rd was 80+. A lot of teams have good offensive forwards and strong defensemen/goalies, but I think the offense and defense of my forwards is what set my team apart.

Congratulations again Brian. You didn't have the strongest goalie tandem this year, heck you may have not even had the 3rd or 4th best, but it is a testament to your overall team building that every single other aspect - off, def, special teams, depth ect was steller. F'ing steller and unbeatable. Excellent job!
