  1. Racking up these leadership points, playoff MVP here I come.
  2. this might seem like it was made for the poor pun but in fact I enjoyed this a lot. RIP Minot.
  3. Why is VHL censored damn we're not anal.
  4. Hope you return eventually and do your best Conner Low impression.
  5. Wait, did you just call Thomassen a power forward?
  6. Welp. 200 hits though. Get ready Toronto.
  7. DAV G can be your hero, baby.
  8. That's right folks, more New York history making! Low and XXX went to town here. Boom bitch get out the way.
  9. he doesn't play for Quebec also lol, you're both like half the player without the other. gays.
  10. This makes me giddy with excitement.
  11. he's not, you just wait til Slaughter curbstomps him. Even fucking Tom Slaughter.
  12. No Cattrall, Jakobssen, Boychuk, or Matthews. And just 250k more cap space (i.e. just 250k cap space). So Wolf, Thomassen, Young, and Denis or maybe KJA. Then a mighty Bentley, Yamazaki, and Stark or some other scrub. And a goaltender who's not elite enough to steal a series. Yeah I don't think Quebec beats NY. Low doesn't more to forward and NY get some other forward. Or Low does move to forward and NY get Fjorsstrom or Yuma or some scrub.
  13. Maybe three. Davos is bound to sneak one in.
  14. But then you wouldn't be able to make Stockholm four-time champions from S45 onwards!
  15. Remember when I said last week was Bentley's last 590? Yeah, I lied. I have decided to get another point in leadership just so I could write about this topic before I forget about it by the time I'm back to writing regularly. Anyway, Quebec. Did you know Matt Bentley spent a season in Quebec? So did Young, Zamora, Moher, almost Jarkko Olsen, basically all that was left of that Davos team which made four straight finals. Granted, we did lose to our former captain Thomas Landry and Calgary (and Martin fuckin' Brookside) but the fact was that the Meute really announced their return to contention in Season 40. Yeah, just two seasons ago. It seems weird that a team would trade so much for a bunch of veterans (and Bruno Wolf) ahead of one season would then look completely different going into Season 41. Part of it had to do with the fact I did push to the exit a bit after Frank stepped down and if Bentley was gone, keeping Young made little sense, but it made sense on other levels too. And it worked! Who knows if S41 Quebec, with a similar roster to the one which ended S40, would have won the cup. Probably not. But this season would definitely be their last shot before a necessary retool. Instead, with little cap space and few assets (Frank always faced an uphill battle with few resources to rebuild so then trading a bunch of them to Davos didn't help matters), Brovy's Quebec has turned it around by trading Young and Bentley. Young fetched Ryan Cattrall and Jarome Iginla with Iginla later part of the deal for Travis Boychuk. Bentley was traded for two firsts which were packaged off with two other firsts to get Rami Jakobssen and Wesley Matthews. Did Quebec get franchise players? It's hard to tell yet but the performances of Wolf and Thomassen have helped turn attention away from that. But now, without really decreasing their chances to win in S42, the Meute still have a chance to compete in season 43, 44, 45, which they didn't before last off-season. It's one of those weird situations where removing a good GM (and Frank proved his worth both in Davos and Quebec) has allowed a team to benefit in ways they wouldn't have been able to without the GM change. And this turnaround means I won't feel bad about beating Quebec again this season.
  16. Stay tuned for all-time shootout stats update and you'll find out!
  17. NYA G mails it in with 3 minutes left, good thing we scored enough.
  18. Don't wake us up!
  19. let's swap Bentley and Low
  20. they were on webs, account wasn't used/expired, they dead. S18-S19 were uploaded to some shit called freeoda and then we got vhlsim.net so everything from S20 is safe. It's a pain. Fortunately HOF articles and career stats cover most of everything which matters in the slightest.
  21. yeah, Gow III has about 112 career points
  22. yeah indexes are dead up to and including S17. Darn.
  23. Shit, how are you getting S2 and S3 stats. I need that.
  24. Stockholm confirmed best team in Europe.
