The one-year rebuild of the Ducks has been completed, and it is now time to hand over the reigns to (the luckiest GM in the league) a new manager. Although he has not officially taken over yet, he is registered, and itching to make a splash in NAFHL. So without further adieu, I bring to you....Hannu!

Funny part is that it is actually duck hunting season in Finland. Off to get my shotgun!  |

Hello everyone on NAFHL! My name is Hannu and I'm the new GM of the Anaheim Ducks. I really appreciate this opportunity to challenge you guys on upcoming fantasy seasons. I haven't had the chance to affect that much on my roster for this season, but I'm still quite confident with it. Here is a few things about me. I live in Oulu, a smallish town in northern Finland. I have a good understanding of the game, because I watch quite a lot hockey live here in Oulu and as much NHL as I can. And I'm also going to see the NHL Premiere in Helsinki. Buffalo - Anaheim. I love big plays. It really doesn't matter if it's a huge hit, a cool deke on a breakaway, a brilliant pass or a big save. The reason I love NHL is that it is so fast paced compared to other leagues. Finnish elite league is the most fast paced league in Finland, and it's not even close to NHL. I've been playing NHL fantasy for 3 seasons now, so I'm not a total newbie. And I'm confident that I will win the title within 3 years.  Some of you may have noticed, that I have landed two Finnish prospects on my farm teams. I'm confident that both of the guys are playing NHL in 2-3 years, and I would have had to kill myself if someone else would have taken them(since they're my favorite Finnish prospects). If someone wants to know more on these players I would love to tell you. I really like the concept of this league and appreciate the time that Derrick has to put to make this all possible. Thanks, Hannu edit: typos |

"Finnish elite league is the most fast paced league in Finland" <-- I was supposed to say in Europe. Sorry !
And thanks Robyn.

So exciting.
You better make that pick or trade it! I'm excited to see if we can use up all the draft picks this year.
