Its because I don't pay attention to shit. Thanks for lovin me !

Riga Seattle Quebec Helstinki

Another S57'r gets sent out into the pasture.

Like the use of the smoke effect on the black background. You've also layered it over him as well, nice job! Great job of centering his face in the SIG, it makes him the focal point visually. And like the add of color to his mug and Vegas logo. Nice to see a logo swap on the jersey, not too bad positioning and blending of hues and clarity to match the jersey. Good job of lighting on a whole and although the font style is plain, its nice n big with decent fade in the right areas so it pops enough. 6/6

Your not incompetent, you just need more practice. Anyways its a good start. A nice border around the SIG might add more aesthetics to it as a whole. Nice use of the round sponsor shield in the center. Swap True North with Haterade and those two would stand out more. As you know your missing a logo but shit happens. Right idea with the sun like light source but maybe a lens flare would look more realistic and aesthetically pleasing. Keep making these as your on the right track. Good effort.

Quite a nice job on this Quick! Clean good looking background with JJ logo situated behind Crosby. Nice amount of lighting on the logo as well..subtle, soft and just enough to read the logo. Pattern and color choice on left side was good and font style/color as well. Always like that style of filter on the player, it gives a comic book visual to it. You've made his name and him pretty much the focal point which is great. Only thing that bothered me a touch was the lenses flare on his shoulder.. It was a bit too harsh for me. Gorgeous SIG!

All close games!

Too close games so far.

Nice, I scored the winner.

I see we have a few sadists here huh! Ok, I'll accept alcohol water boarding....??

I once tried to get K Louth to Seattle but was told tampering only applies to GM's.

Close one tho.

That's real pretty.

Dont forget the amount of TPE racked up for a first gen, which is pretty amazing. Farewell KL and may the hockey gods be kind to you.

No prob sweetie

Well this writer was bluntly questioned on his choice of player that he thought would step up and take a leadership role with Team Europe. Well this writer stands corrected. I've equated Dahlberg being on Helsinki for some reason so my bad and apologies go out to @Nykonax and thanks to my fellow Manitoban @Enoramafor pointing out this old fuckers mistake. Ya gotta man up and take responsibility when you fuck up. Anyways, I needed a VHL article for the TPE so I'll be writing a short piece on a certain player since they feel slighted justifiably so by not being considered or even being chosen as one of the leaders for Team Europe. We have a solid first year pro in LW Elias Dahlberg. He started off last year and had a terrific inaugural season with my former VHLM club the Ottawa Lynx scoring 57 goals and 61 assists. His parent club felt he was ready for the big time and was brought up to Davis for S64. Suiting up for HC this year Dahlberg has put up respectable numbers. In 45 games so far he's potted 16 goal and 10 assists. That projects over a full season to 25 goals and 15 assists, which is pretty good considering he is on a struggling club. Elias seems to have a nose for the net but is also defensively responsible as well. He has one of the higher +/- on a team where most are in the minus category. Dahlberg is one of the better checkers on his club as well. All of his skill should definitely bolster Team Euro and help them be competitive during the up and coming junior games. Look for Elias to be close to a point a game clip in the tournament. Word Count: Just over 200 + 1 uncapped S64 WJC TPE and 2 TPE for the article.

I stand corrected! I for some reason kept thinking Dahlberg was on Helsinki. Now don't ask me how that happened, but since I'm in my fifties I'm going to attribute it to a senior moment. My apologies @Nykonax

Love the defensive play on our part.

Ive never liked OT shoot outs.

Solid.

You were both fairly close in stats/attributes but I gave him the nod because he plays on a shittier VHL team then you do, has more points on defence than you do on forward and has more VHL experience.

1. Have you played hockey out in Waco in real life? 2. What do you like most and least about this game? 3. Is there any personal goals you hope to accomplish with your player? 4. The color of hockey tape you use is? 5. Gretzky or Lemieux and why?

S 64 WJC IMPACT PLAYERS ========================================== The World Juniors are getting set to start soon and we all have our favorites to come out on top. I'm gonna focus on some players that I think may be major contributors to their perspective teams, regardless of the clubs outcome. Its all subjective, and I'm mainly writing this shit for the TPE so if you wanna leave comments + or - it's all good. TEAM WORLD ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I've decided to only write about hockey players that have spent time in the big league so with that said Team World's defence man and my line mate Mountain Thunderfist comes to mind. His name is fitting as he's big as a mountain and hits hard checking wise and fist wise. MT is a larger poor man's version of Kiaskov but still has a lot if time to improve as he's young. Unfortunately he's not as good looking and loaded with charm and charisma like his diminutive line mate but we'll forgive him on that. Whatever the outcome for Team World you can expect MT to anchor the blue line defensively and play the physical game he has established himself for throughout the VHL. TEAM USA ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well the player that I think may have an impact on Team USA is none other than Ryan Sullivan Jr. He's a big fucker with good size and he can move his ass pretty well on the ice. JR. also has some good offensive and defensive skills to go along with his well rounded game. You can also expect a solid two way game from this guy along with this physical play. Thus far he's tallied 2 goals and 31 points in 41 games with NYA. Pretty decent numbers so I imagine he'll be on the scoreboard during the tournament. Expect him to be one of the leaders on Team USA. TEAM ASIA ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Not a lot going on with this club as they'll be hard pressed to go far in the tournament but who knows anything can happen. Anyhooz my pick for the player to take the reigns and lead the team nowhere fast is Dylan Nguyen. Honorable mention goes to the player with a fuct up first name in Kisshan Shan. Dylan will be lining up on the first defensive pairing with a player named Bald Guy ( Guess he's bald ). Nguyen had two point per game seasons in the minors before he was called up. VHL wise he projects to be a solid SAHD with about a 40 points per season. I see him anchoring the blue line with some help from his Reign teammate Shan. In their defence they have a pretty stacked Riga team offensively and defensively so they really haven't been able to showcase what they're capable of. Look for Shan to compliment Nguyen offensively. I think Dylan steps up with Shan right behind and these two will receive a lot of ice time on an already anaemic club. TEAM EUROPE ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I think team Euro and USA will be chasing Canada's tails this tourney and one of the players from Europe who will be leading the charge is 6'4" Lando Baxter who plays with shitty ( Still hatin ) Calgary of the VHL. On a club that's not doin so well this year, aw who are we kiddin... they fuckin suck right now. Lando is actually playing fairly well. The guy's got a set of wheels for a bigger man and he's pretty solid both on offence and defence as attested by his 31 points in 42 games. He's also at -17 +/- but that also reflects how shitty his team is at the moment. He just needs to be more physical to make his game more affective. I expect Baxter to step it up in the wjc as he has pro level experience and will bring that to the up n coming games. He should come out as one of the leaders on this Euro club. TEAM CANADA ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Without a doubt one of the most talented players in this wjc tournament is center Scott Shawinganen. I believe he will be one of the most dominant players in these junior games. Scott has been at a point per game clip since his inaugural season last year, and he's in line for another 70 + point season this year. Don't be surprised if he leads the tourney in points. And with the support and talent this team has behind him, Canada are the favorites to repeat as this years wjc once again. Word Count: 768 + 1 uncapped s64 wjc TPE

Ill tell ya what we need...free TPE (1-2) uncapped per week if members send pics of their alcohol in hand on either Beerday, Zambukaday or Rumday! ?????
