End of season 51 in PPM Hockey + New updates in "Saving the Vikings" project

 

After a championship in which we rebuilt and reshaped the team, we finally managed to finish in 4th place during the regular season, which propelled us into the playoffs.

 

There, we managed to reach the semifinals, delivering a surprising defeat in Game 2 against Sportklub. Unfortunately, in the decisive match, the difference in strength between our teams became evident, and we had to leave the ice defeated.

 

A major achievement for our team (and a significant financial bonus, as well) was in the player statistics, where we ranked first in almost all categories (we were leading in the goaltender category too, but unfortunately, a match against Sportklub ruined all the percentages).

 

In the end, we can say that the reconstruction process is going according to plan. The arena is starting to take shape, and in a few days, the first section of 1,000 seats will be open to spectators. Soon, the other two sections will follow in the next season. At that point, we will feel an initial financial boost. Speaking of finances, every week we are earning a surplus of €5,000,000, which, for now, we will invest in increasing the arena's capacity.

HockeyArena - new winter project

 

After more than 10 years, I'm returning to one of the most beloved hockey management games, HockeyArena. I've been away for a long time, so I'm taking it easy, using a strategy similar to the one I used in PPM, divided into several stages:

1. Infrastructure

   • Expanding the arena to generate more money.
   • With the money earned, we’ll invest in facilities.

2. Once the facilities are developed, I can focus on developing players, so I’ll move on to the next stage: investment in players.

   • Creating a U23 team.
   • Buying young players (preferably romanian guys to help the national team) to develop them and build a competitive team
     

 

I noticed that I’ve been placed in the second league. It seems there aren’t many Romanian managers left in the game:

I have a fairly decent squad, but with many players over 26 years old:

 

The best one is this guy:

 

First match, first victory! 🎉
