A good run ......

Well its been awhile since I took over NHLDEPOT back in 2000 but I believe it is my time to step aside. I would do Depot a great injustice If i continue to just let it site here with neglect.
It all started back in 1999. My buddy K-DAWG and I took it over from a guy named Chef boy Ardee. We each had our own sites and decided to combine our efforts. K-Dawg had The Goalie Den and I had a Flyers Only site called flyersgames.com. Now 8 years later Im passing nhldepot on to someone else. Im not really sure what the future holds for nhldepot but I do hope it sticks around for awhile. As any webmaster will tell you , It is a major undertaking to keep a site up and running. And to keep a huge site like depot going over the years took alot of help from alot of good people.
I want to thank Everyone who has had a hand in helping out at depot over the years. Yammer has always been a huge help and One of my best friends I will keep in touch buddy. Congrats with the newborn bud! TNK helped out with custom php scripts and was also a great friend. Our bud Earl, who past away a few years ago, was always the voice of reason even through those stupid Thunderpuck wars. Wolfe Will also be a friend for Life and I will probably hang out at his site more often now hehe. Robert Was one of our 1st Roster makers here at depot and did a nice Job as mod in the Forums. DMG Did a awsome job keeping the peace here and reaching out to the dmd guys to unite the community. For all the many people that I have come in contact over the years and all the addon makers who basically made this site possible, I just want to say thanks for all the Input.

Ill continue to stop in once in awhile to all the remaining addon sites and will continue to look forward to checking out the new game year after year.

Thanks again and Ill see you all around.

Thanks for the great Years buddy!

We'll miss the site, because it won't be the same now.

You've done a lot for the community despite the preconceived notions many people have had.

Thanks for sticking with it for so long. Your site has been a pillar in the community, and you deserve credit for being the one of the last of the old guard remaining.

I'm sorry I wasn't able to help out in the way you envisioned. Good luck to you in the future, and hopefully we can still keep in touch.
