We're into the playoffs so the seasonal Fredrik Elmebeck Memorial Trophy nominations are now open! @Members Every member can nominate one other member who they feel demonstrated great work ethic, passion for the VHL, and/or made some notable contribution which in your eyes made them stand out in S79. There are no restrictions on who you nominate, but we will not necessarily vote for someone in a position of power. This should whittle it down to a few candidates which the BOG will vote on prior to the off-season awards ceremony. To nominate a fellow member, simply fill out the short form linked here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSewh4cCQja5J2cKHPi0jgtua3wK_Q1yaWjZhfiMtI3KKr47ZQ/viewform?usp=sf_link

1. Out of these defunct VHLM teams, which organization lasted beyond S20? (Credit and 1 uncapped TPE to @KaleebtheMighty) So many teams went through the VHLM back in the day, with relocations, expansions, contractions and ultimately a permanent move to all North America. Gothenburg, later Oslo, now Minnesota, Toledo, later Bern, now Las Vegas, and Buffalo, now Saskatoon, did not make it to S20 and the great de-affiliation of the VHL and VHLM. Kolari, which started off as Jonkoping, then became the Panthers, then briefly the Wolves and then moved to Turku and got contracted, was around at the 20-season anniversary but probably regrets it now. Best source for this information is probably this handy thread: https://vhlforum.com/topic/97303-franchise-history-visualiser-vhl-vhlm/ 2. Calgary got their 69th franchise win in which season? Calgary famously went 69-3 in the inaugural VHL season, a record which remains untouched in the VHL and VHLM. It does therefore mean they got their 69th win in S1 although they didn't get their first cup - they lost more games in the finals to Vasteras than they did all season.

Week 4 results are coming imminently. In the meantime... https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf5-4FWyWioIgaaIbYJxCn2VLAzFxtaH-8QphaqrWSBQmUVrg/viewform?usp=sf_link Each correct answer is worth 1 capped TPE at the end of the week. Don't reveal the answer in public, but if you're not sure, ask around, here, or in the special trivia Discord channel.

DC loves the wildcard round.

HYPE

Just spreading the Telker love to the rest of the league

I'll accept this result.

All good things must come to an end. After a whirlwind four seasons with the Seattle Bears, goaltender Rara Rasputin came out of a discussion with GM Blake Campbell with the following statement: “The GM offered me a one-season extension and the promise of a competitive roster and let me be clear that I fully trust that he would deliver on that promise. Seattle when I joined and Seattle now is unrecognisable, but we have always been competitive, we've won the cup, we've made the finals, and I'm excited to see what we do again this postseason. But let's call this the last hurrah for this particular period in Bears history. “I have looked at the goalie positions around the league and have decided now is the time to test free agency. It looks like a lot of options are available and I am open to anything and everything. We have had a great run in Seattle and I have experienced individual success with back-to-back 40-win seasons and a Kanou Trophy. I'd like to challenge myself outside of Seattle or at least explore what's out there – maybe I'll come back, but I want to know what else is on offer first.” And with that, it appears Rara Rasputin will be on the market this coming off-season. First, however, another exciting couple weeks of playoffs await.

bold of you to assume I read past the OP

But Rara Rasputin would win every season

Fuck me it's Brannan. Jericho Kozmalov was your last player yeah? Or did you try again at some point in the following 12 years lmao? Welcome back anyway!

Right so just so I'm clear: Lahtinen - @Red Bernard - @Ledge and Dairy Downey - not sure who took this, if they still want it? @Zetterberg @Ricer13 @rory you've asked before so happy for 1 of you to claim and then there will be more coming this off-season with S79 induction.
