2 hockey league can co-exist if they bring their own dynamic to the table. The SHL has one dynamic, the VHL has another. Now, it's a matter to see which one works best and what changes we can do, learning fro meither SHL or any other league, to become leaders/ pioneers with creative ideas to reinvent the VHL
What the SHL does good is recruiting and retaining members because they built beforemost a community that people (some) enjoy a lot and that makes them stay
This whole talk is about bringing members to fill lineups ? What the hell, that's the least of my concern. You all think of solutions to fix a problem in short term, but we have the same and same problem over and over again because we don' t address the real problem, which is a lacking community that doesn't make people want to stay. If people want to stay here, they will work with our PT system for sure and they will collaborate. Now, what we only do is, how to please people that doesn't really give a shit about the VHL.
It's just shooting yourself in the foot
