1. One second, let me just check the sim results as I've been on holiday most of this week. Right so with the benefit of hindsight, no. I know for some reason Oslo played like 4-5 games more than everyone else a while back because the VHLM schedule is weird apparently so I suspected we'd be caught up. Surprised it was Saskatoon though, I saw Ottawa as the larger threat as you know. On the bright side, Cast seems to have been lighting it up. 2. I think there's a very clear top 3 this draft, so unless that hypothetical team needs a goalie, I would obviously want it to be yourself (Thompson) and Gate seeing as I'd want the team to be as competitive as possible. As for which team I would want it to be, off the top of my head the likeliest options are Seattle (via Toronto), Riga, and I think Davos? I'd like to play for Riga or Seattle having never done it before but also want to help resurrect Davos... gun to my head I'd have to say Riga though. They're a nice additional touch, pretty easy TPE to be honest. Would be great if there was more involvement though, as I can never really know whether I should expect any questions on any given week, but I suppose greater involvement is something of a league-wide issue at the moment.

Great start for our actual active goaltender @Daniel

The other day I updated the World Cup medals spreadsheet which had been untouched since S50: http://vhlforum.com/topic/22461-world-cup-medals/E Eventually I'll get around to doing the tournament-by-tournament threads (also untouched since S50) although perhaps @Will has aspirations to move that to the portal as well - in which case I might hold off to not waste my time. Anyway, a quick summary of what I found out in the process: - in my absence, Canada won. A lot. In particular Lee King Snatch - @Smarch and both goaltenders Rhett DeGrath @STZ and Markus King @Kendrick won 3 gold medals, the first players to do so since the very successful Scandinavians of S20 to S26. - King's medals in particular helped Kendrick propel himself to the the top of the members' medal table, 2 clear of myself, @Bushito, and Smarch who also benefited from Canada's historic run. - Apollo Skye @Velevra might only have 1 gold to show for his career, but he did get 5 overall - the only other 2 players ever to win that many are Kristian Carlsson and Lars Berger in the 20s. - @Phil - sadly no longer with us by the looks of it - cemented his title as the unluckiest member in the World Cups - his silver medal count went up to a whopping 9 all-time, compared to just 2 golds - that's a lot of nearly but not quite there finals. Apart from that, I couldn't decide how to treat second players. I've gone for a weird half measure where if a member had 2 players on the same team I only awarded the member 1 medal, but if they won 2 different medals in the same World Cup, I gave them both. I'm still unsure on that and if I want to change it.

Boo. Although I did have a good game.

Shootout winner, huge.

I talk about how teams have fared in the last 10ish seasons, with a focus on GMs and this thread: http://vhlforum.com/topic/1060-vhl-all-time-gms/ https://www112.zippyshare.com/v/FIjtisxU/file.html

4? What are the chances someone got swept in their only playoff appearance and yet had goaltending stats which would skew the records?
