You used two different abbreviations for Latvia. Solid work as usual.

I can't remember who they are.

Nope. The 3 seasons of crossover before expansion was because everyone but Davos was terrible in Europe (4 of the top 5 teams in the league were in NA) but never quite like this. I believe I remember seeing S4 standings where Calgary missed the playoffs but would have finished first in Europe, but it could have been that they would have finished second and we don't have those links now.

With Nonsense and Quads as well as this post: http://www.vhlforum.com/index.php?/topic/30857-lw-theo-pavlik/&do=findComment&comment=344580 I'm feeling that doubles week imo.

Week 1 of Season 49 has come to an end. Week 2 will officially open tomorrow but you may start sending in your numbers now. Answers for Week 1: PART A 1. Which team has lost the most times in the Continental Cup finals? (Credit to Dangles13) ANSWER: The New York Americans. They racked up quite a few when they lost 6 finals in 9 seasons from S25 to S33 and remain "first" with 8, just ahead of Toronto and Riga with 7 apiece. 2. Name the only player to ever win three Bronze Medals without any other colour medal? (Credit to Kendrick) ANSWER: RJ Stafford - in fact the only player to win 3 bronze medals at all. At least he captained Vasteras to a cup. 3. Which player has won the most Continental Cups of all time? (Credit to solas) ANSWER: Thomas O'Malley tried so hard but fell just short of Leeroy Jenkins' record of 5 earned from S24 to S30. Apart from O'Malley and Jenkins, only 2 other players have more than 3 championships. 4. Who was the winner of the inaugural VFHL (Victory Fantasy Hockey League) Championship? (Credit to STZ) ANSWER: I don't know if STZ intended the question to be about the VHFL "Alpha" but that's what everyone else went for: It's our beloved Bushito/Mr. Grumpy Bear! PART B Which first name is the most common among players inducted into the VHL Hall of Fame? ANSWER: Strictly speaking it's Alexander with 5 (Beketov, Chershenko, Labatte, Valiq, Sauve). Matt/Matthew also come in at 5 but then you have to include the Alexs - McNeil and Gegeny. 1 capped TPE goes to: boom bukss_a CowboyinAmerica Dangles13 der meister DollarAndADream Draper fever95 gorlab hedgehog337 JardyB10 Kendrick Molholt Phil solas sterling Streetlight svb Tylar Velevra 1 uncapped TPE goes to: Dangles13 Kendrick solas STZ

5. Yukon Rush , Asher Donovan 15 (Izidors Balders, Luke Matthews) at 19:01 6. Yukon Rush , JJ Dynamite 9 (Asher Donovan) at 19:40 killer blow

A @Storm is brewing. Top line stepping up!

@Ventas on a roll Poor @enigmatic though

Klajums redeeming himself! @Dangles13 and @jjdynamite coming up clutch!

ello ello, potential TPE to be had here! we've got some dead retired numbers banners here: http://www.vhlforum.com/index.php?/topic/864-new-york-americans-retired-numbers/ here is the information for the missing guys: #39 Jonsson S10-S14 #17 Hakkinen S18-S25 #14 Night S1-S5 #10 Best S7-S10 #10 Azevedo S11-S15 now the trick is that these are old players so the current NYA logo doesn't apply for them. Night was a Hamilton Canuck so this is his logo: http://s118.photobucket.com/user/pombo22/media/Canucks.png.html The other 4 had the first NYA logo which was the Saginaw Spirit logo obviously with New York Americans text: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/90/Saginaw_Spirit_Logo.svg/1280px-Saginaw_Spirit_Logo.svg.png Now it's up to you if you want to change the text on that logo and stick to the old retired number template or go the way of Tordahl and Low and avoid using the logo altogether. It doesn't really matter as you can see New York's banners are all over the place. And Hakkinen used to be the current logo anyway even though it only existed for his last 2 seasons. @Advantage @Streetlight may also wish to weigh in. Please do help though, you will be rewarded.

Does anyone remember/know where the old NYA logo was ripped off from? Would love to find the full scale version cuz all the old ones are dead.

Can you not even spell your own player's name?

legend for sure. I'm sure Hodgson will be retired and it probably should have happened but it kind of works out if it's done only after you leave Helsinki.

that's a bannin;

says the defenceman jeez

the show's overtaken the books so no one knows any more.

I mean have you seen the other goalies?

woot Benjen thought maybe, just maybe Brienne going to Riverrun was a red herring. But now Jaime too. And return of Frey, and mention of Brotherhood Without Banners. Hype is real. Dany opts to use epic speech on dragon move this time. She will soon run out of combinations involving, dragons, fire, and foreign language speeches to deliver episode-ending scenes.

I take full credit for this win.

DONKEY!

everyone saw it coming we got you a point!

A mature attitude. I can only imagine the reaction if someone responded to your suggestion like that.

Hot fire.

But what would the reasons be? Why would anyone wait 3 seasons if that was an option?
