ahhl awards nite 2011 a huge success!

It was a night of laughter and tears as AHHL GMs gathered--some coming from as far away as Dartmouth--to celebrate another season in the books.

This beauty caused many a longing stare. And many a lonely thought...

When will I ever lift you to my lips?

What, the house red?

No.

The trophy.

Trash Talk of the Year went to Super City Bike Lanes, who proceeded to leave the trophy at the bar.

It is a rather trashy trophy, granted.

In other news, 3D's category-redefining efforts netted him the Tank Hard award (photo to follow) but not, alas, the first overall pick.

Your lottery draft winners:

1. West Coast Express

2. Timbit Hockey

3. 3D House of Pancakes

As always, after the first round we revert to normal draft order (reverse standings).

In addition to the hardware we paid out our much-loved 10% / 70% 30% 15% 8% 5% 2% winnings structure.

This net a very nice return for The Regulators.

I think that's it.

Oh yes: there was a lot of buzz about Filatov, understandably.

It is true that Dirty Blades will probably make him available.

But it is also true that we'll have to wait until August...sigh.
