  1. I accept. Don't like having to give up Caprivi, but with losing Brookside after S43 the chances of me keeping a run without retooling is going to be tough. This trade ensures I get a high tier player for this season, and keeps my cap nice and free after the fact. I also get Klose who is a fantastic younger player who can compliment O'Malley for the top line. Also another deal where I get rid of picks? Device hates picks. Or as Kendrick calls me in the locker room, Denise hates picks.
  2. A few close games in this series, but it appears like Waldron couldn't keep up the stellar play he put in against Wahl. It has to be tough to battle two top goalies like that with Wahl and Brookside back to back. Great job though Quebec, and as Kesler has said you guys will be back. Feels great to have helped both expansion franchises win their first Cup. That was a big reason why I wanted to take Laich to Cologne, because with so much league history already established I wanted to try to help cement more history in this league. I'm glad I was able to help see Cologne win their first. Here is hoping to many more, but I'm happy with the one. It isn't as easy as your dynasty teams like Davos/NY make it seem. I swear. Anyway, great job Train. Munk your amazing!
  3. Holy cow. What an offensive explosion.
  4. Stuck is the wrong word. There is the gatling gun guy on the tower in Old Yarnham. I know you can keep going fight other bosses and come back and turn him into an NPC. I know you can try to knock him off the tower to kill him. I just want to kill him now, because he's pissing me off. But he's quite tough. I haven't really invested much in knocking him down, probably going to farm and buy a bunch of bullets for the pistol to do it.
  5. Ugh still trying to get through Bloodborne, keep getting stuck/and or frustrated. Not at the fault of the game, it was built that way. That damn gattling gun though, he's a pain in the ass. Also trying to deal with playing so much at once. Hearthstone new expansion, got NHL 15 for PS4 on sale at a very cheap price, Mortal Kombat X, dabbling in Pillars of Eternity as well. Also wanna finish Ori and the Blind Forest. TOO MUCH TOO MUCH TOO MUCH!
  6. Normally I'd say "get off the bandwagon" but when it comes to Munk we are all in this together. Munkz 4 LYFE!
  7. Wow look at those shot totals. Ironic how NY had the goaltending star power edge and it was Quebecs goalie that made the biggest difference in the clinching game. Two great teams here could of went either way. NY had a great run, and Chris is one of the better GM's in league history. I highly doubt it'll be long before we see the name Americans on a Continental Cup and many individual awards again. Kinda sad to see the end of #ConnerLow though. The time flies by way too fast. It feels like only yesterday that we would laugh and tease Braxton because Conner Low was so much better after only playing two seasons. Anyway, good job Quebec. Going to be an interesting finals.
  8. Very competitive series, a few overtime games. Was fun Helsinki. Glad we could prove we were better than our regular season record suggested thus far in the playoffs. Glad we made it to our first final appearance as an organization. But you had a great season Helsinki and while the disappointment may sting, you guys are hardly heading for a rebuild anytime that soon. And on the train goes.....weird some loud mouthed Heyena that can't stop laughing and talking about "scoping n00bz" is standing on the tracks....
  9. Watching it with my roommate and we are really digging it. Only on Episode 4 though. The tone helps things, but the focus on other characters does as well. To often super hero things such as the past Daredevil movie try too hard to focus simply on the hero and the villain. They forget that part of the thrill of seeing the crazy things happen is actually experiencing the world/other characters. There are some key scenes in this series, extended scenes in some cases with side characters that are getting well established, or just characters for an arc of an episode or so that really help give a sense of something believable to Hell's Kitchen. Also the camera work is fantastic. The hallway trick was an excellent shot, and while I have seen it done before a couple of times it was used very well here. Already seeing a minor tie in with Agents of Shield, and considering the price of the actor in this, I'm hoping down the road to see Daredevil/Agents of Shield crossover stuff. Would be really cool.
  10. Which run you talking about? I'm sure their fan base is alright with missing with two cups in the past 3 seasons to be honest. I wouldn't say they had a stacked team or anything either. It was just the intensity and capacity for which they played that propelled them to such great success imo. Honestly there is a bunch of sleepers in the West that are probably the most likely to make the finals. Minnesota is a good candidate for that. East is a bit of a different story, unless Price can carry the Habs a long way the Rangers look to be stacked enough to go the distance. Now I'm hoping Pittsburgh doesn't make it, just because I think that would be a hilarious thing to happen in the NHL.
  11. Hot damn. Who is going to LA it up this year then in the playoffs? I have zero confidence the Anahiems or Nashvilles of the West are actually good playoff teams. Going to be an interesting playoff year with so many fresh new teams.
  12. Sorry Stockholm, but our regular season record was not indicative of how good we actually were. Some close games here, but the extra star power and goaltending is a big difference maker. Good series and best of luck to Boubabi and you guys in the future. Boubabi is still set up to likely win this upcoming off season by a mile I predict. So many chips in his hands.
  13. It's crazy to think Ovie has accomplished so much goal scoring records before he's even turned 30. Only sixth player in NHL history to have 6 50 goal seasons. Broke Bondra's record for franchise lead in goals. He's also only 1 goal away from hitting the top 50 in all time goals scored. It's tough to say going forward how great he'll be, considering he could get injured or eventually taper off. But if he has the luck he's had with injuries and manages to be as consistent even till he's like 35, the possibility of him shattering even more records becomes more likely by the season. It isn't even that crazy to think he could tie Gretzky/Bossy for most 50 goal seasons ever with 9. While I highly doubt he passes or ties Gretzky for all time goals, him being in the top five or better is a distinct possibility.
  14. I normally do the text, unpaid. Also the "uncapped" TPE part of this is now being investigated. While it really is only 1 TPE per week, if I recall the original idea was for you guys to get this to help get this going. There are enough talented GFX people around here with no jobs.
  15. Yeah Nolan isn't perfect (still my favorite director) but that movie gets a lot of undeserved flack imo. There is of course issues with it (as with most things) but the strengths greatly outweigh the flaws. As a director he is really committed to making movies worthy of a theater experience, and that is certainly one of them. Seeing it in Imax was pretty great.
  16. UPF By Giant Bomb was playing Thriller now I'm in the mood for some old school Michael Jackson. Damn man before he decided to bleach his skin he was such a baller. YEAH THATS RIGHT I SAID IT! SUE ME!
  17. Update to this thread. I've drank a bottle of wine and ate a steak after a long hard shitty day at work. GO ME GO? No? Fine. The truth of the matter is that it's super terrible this thread hasn't been updated in nearly a month. You sober losers you.

    RIG/COL ; S42

    http://www.vhlforum.com/index.php?/forum/117-continental-cup-champions/ Go give some of those teams a look. Tons of full rosters there in the last several seasons eh? Weird I'm seeing a lot of teams with 6 fowards and 3 D. But keep believing two good players and a decent player on your second line will carry you past a New York team that scores 7 goals on you.

    This trade is not to be processed until the trade deadline (Game 250) due to cap reasons. COL Receives: C - Robin Gow RIG Receives: S44 COL 1st This is the Part of 2 of 2 for a deal.
