MESSAGE FROM
THE COMMISSIONER
Congratulations to Sean Savage and his Toronto Maple Leafs as they
pull off the three-peat breezing through the playoffs with just 3
losses in 4 series including a 4-1 steam rolling of the NY Islanders
in the Cup Finals.
Jean-Guy deserves a lot of credit as he fought through a ton of tough
opponents to get to the finals and his guys were just a bit
undermanned when they ran into the Leafs.
Thank you all
for another great season and I am sad to see that we are losing at
least one and as many as 3 good owners as Phil Goldring has decided
not to continue with Montreal for next season.
As well Harri Aalto has been super busy and out of touch for a
while now and Walter Giese has been MIA as well with neither team
casting their Ballot votes and while I am not replacing them just yet
I would like everyone to start thinking if you know someone who would
be interested in an RHL slot as we need an owner for sure and maybe 3
or 4 if I can’t get in touch with these guys soon.
If anyone is in touch with either of them, please have them get
with me asap as I would hate to replace someone to only find out they
were just out of touch for whatever reason.
Final RHL
files are on the website for anyone that is interested in keeping
track of the playoff results.

I will be
compiling the Awards results over the next week and will post them in
a separate newsletter of their own as they take a lot of work to put
together. So the few teams
who haven’t voted have time if they want to get them in.
Update
Coaching Records
Here are some of the highlights and changes with last seasons final
records added in:
Dean (723) joins me (767) with over 700 wins
John L, Jean-Guy, Grant, Mark S, Mike McIlmoyle and Harri all join
Craig and Curtis in the 600 win club
Jeff, Mike McMillan and Walter all get their 500th wins this year.
Jean and Michel go over 400 wins
Buffalo, New Jersey, Edmonton and Toronto as a franchise all have
over 700 wins over 16 seasons.
With his third straight championship, Sean (98) is right behind me
(99) for playoff wins in 6 less seasons and we should both go over 100
next year.
Mark S and Jean-Guy went over 80 playoff wins.
Harri got his 70th playoff win.
Buffalo is the only team to make the playoffs in all 16 RHL seasons.
Toronto leads in all time franchise playoff wins at 116, Buffalo is #2
with 99.
