Thank you Krifl :)

I guess Houdeng is mad now :P

For me CSL is still the favorite for the red side, I will need to win against them on the road in order to clinch a possible HCA in the playoffs, this will be though.
In all I think the blue side are again favorites to win it all due the fact that they have easier opponents and can prepare ideally for the playoffs. I will face LV Clips on the road and Angie at home so it is an ok schedule.

And my increase in salary comes from my 3 trainees, Vesovold went from 50k to 88k salary and last season I bought a PG with a 70k salary ;)

I agree with statements made by BigT : CSL is still the favourite on our side but again the blue side is going to win the division title : less adversity on the path to the finals.

Didn't really consider that, but yes, the best teams on the blue side have an advantage. Being able to save/build enthousiasm, combined with (likely) HCA in the league finals greatly increases their odds.

I have never had more fear for a season than this one. The red side has gotten too strong for my liking :)

Thanks for your preview. It brings much more motivation to start topics like this ! I see y'all telling blue side should own the champion because of the lower rivalry within their conference. Well, it is more likely to be crowned in this case, I admit. But looking at past seasons, it was all the contrary. I don't wanna appear pretentious but I was (with only BouffAssist as a good opponent) a bit alone on the red side and never promoted. However, I was always weaker than almost all blue side PO teams ! But the hardest conference has still made it until the end !

Several explanations. Either I managed my seasons as a stupid boy (always trying to go as far as possible in the cup, forgetting the important meetings of the league), either I was really much much weaker than my final opponent, either the rivalry helps out to be better prepared for the PO (slight comparison with our Red Devils between their run in Euro 2016 and in WC 2018... easy draw => poor 1/4 ; tough draw => 3rd).

I really think the best explanation in my case is the second but I don't think in the same time than both the other are to throw away and the third one could help us thinking about this season issue... :)

May all of you enjoy the season !

My sincerest apologies, I tried to avoid any gendered pronouns, but a quick check shows I've broken my rule 3 times. Of which twice in the example you've given. I edited it and is noted for next season! :)

A big night...the game for the first place of the division (trophy)..both teams seem well prepared

Seems that LV Clips doesn't need to worry about TheRainmakers anymore, Which was to be expected.
TRM has lost against ... me, had an away game against LV and still has to play @CSLB.

Only a victory could have saved him today, but alas. The game of LV @CSLB will now be the most deciding game.
But then again, LV still has a better PD ...

And he even lost Lambinet during the game. Adding it to a lower enthusiasm shows the domination of LV ! Except an unexpected loss of LV, winning against him won't change anything for me as I won't overtake his PD and I still have several tough games to keep the 1st place of the red side.

@Krifl I have yet to win a game against you :P

To be honest I was a bit surprised about the difference of both teams, I don't know if my defensive approach was maybe the wrong one but we will never find out. Losing Lambinet and still dominating me is kind of surprising, it just shows how strong his other players are. I already managed to promote from this exact league while only having the 3rd best record, so don't count me out yet :)
