Congrats Quick and a thanks to Will for the bang up commish job. Change is good.

PLAYING BY EXAMPLE
  Now I'm gonna give you members the low down on whom I think are some of the non top players making their mark on each club. Feel free to leave a comment on what you think of my write up. 
BTW, I'm trying out a new writing app called Pure Writer. I've replaced it with Writer Plus, which I thoroughly enjoyed but the bitch who made the app wanted access to all phone records, SD card, files etc. My written files would disappear when I denied access, so fuck the coder and fuck his app right up the shitter man.
OK, here we go.....
 
                                                           CALGARY WRANGLERS

    OK, lots of talent on a club that I dislike. Now if my ass had to pick an all around depth player to have on my team from Calgary it would probably be Evan Lawson @diamond_ace
 This guy by today's standards isnt big by all means but he plays larger than his size of 5' 10" 196. Ya gotta love a player who's willing go give it his all game in and game out. Players like this are the ones who are willing to go into the dirty areas of the ice and do battle for the puck and take one for the team. Every club needs a spark plug type of player like Lawson to fire up their team mates.
He's steadily improved his offensive numbers since he's joined the Wranglers. Last season he put up a respectable 30g and 40a in 72gp and Lawson is on pace for another point per game as well.
His hit totals could get close to 250 which has almost tripled from last years play and he should surpass last seasons shot block totals as well. What has dropped however is his GW, PPG and SHG due to getting less time on specialty team play but that's no fault of his own.
Skill wise nothing particularly stands out in his attributes but Lawson has an all around solid game. If you were to pick positives in the guys' play I'd say his skating and scoring would be his strong suits.
Its the little things these players do that make them valuable to a club. Where you get the high profile players who get all points and accolades, these guys' are the front line soldiers that do all the dirty shit and really don't get noticed. All hail Evan Lawson!
 
                                                                                                               HC DAVOS

    OK, pickins are slim on a club that's seen a number of changes this past season. Its like at the end of the night at a bar and all that's left are the women that no one wants to go home with. Ya just wanna  tap some ass but there's not much to choose from so you look for the one that seems to have the most potential.
So here goes.... This guy is Jacob Smith @jacobaa19. Yes, him. In only his second year with Davos he is on pace to almost double the offensive output from his inaugural season.
For Smiths 6' 180 lb size he enjoys laying the hits on opposing players. He is also adept at shot blocking which helps his goalie out when the netminder is down and out of the play. Jacob is a solid if unspectacular defence man on the blue line and he can be counted upon  at even strength and on special teams play. The only shit stain on his resume is his +/- but its indicative of the whole team in this department. I think Smith can only get better as he gains more experience and maturity. 
This would be the girl that you would leave with at the end of the night and luck out with as she'd surprise you by shaggin your your hammer and beans raw and you'd be surprised how adept she was in the sack.
The defence man that you don't notice on the ice but does all the little things right = Jacob Smith.
 
                                                                                          HELSINKI TITANS
   For my choice on the Titans I have to pick  Sidney Crosby @SidTheKid87I like this kid more than that other Crosby in the NHL.  Anyways this kid has good size and a set of good wheels for the weight he carries. He's also strong carrying and dishing the puck off to teammates.
 Crosby is very mature defensively for a first year pro and I love the fact that he keeps opposing players on their toes as he plays an aggressive style of game. Sid's also a man amongst men when it comes to shot blocking. In this area he's on pace for about 300 which is a crazy amount if you ask me. I like this rough and tumble young player and I believe the sky's the limit for this bugger. At the pace he is on he could reach 50 - 55 points this year. Expect more from this scrappy bastard. 
As far as potential goes Sid The Kid's ceiling is high as a kite. Smoke that ganja.
 
                                                          NEW YORK AMERICANS

    Actually for a team that's lacking any depth what so ever, I think the players on this club all have potential to be to be first line talent if they so apply themselves. We'll see how they turn out in the future.
Right now I'm reviewing this guy... defence man Joseph McWolf @McWolf. The first year player has made a good impression on NY with 5g and 31pts in 38 games this season.
The bonus to this guy's game is that he hits opponents as much as Floyd Mayweather hits his women around. The only difference is McWolf doesn't get domestic assault charges against him.
And this kid is also pretty good at blocking shot in from of his own net. He also has a bit of a mean streak to him as well.
McWolf plays the game unlike a lot of the VHL's sissy Euro style players. Watching him is like seeing a flashback of a  70 - 80's player. Ya gotta dig that throwback old school type of game.
All he needs to do is take his protein and creatine powder and juice up on the PEDS to add bulk to that 6' 2" lanky frame to be more effective. The skies the limit for McWolf. Reach for it.
 
                                                                                QUEBEC CITY MEUTE

    Next up on my non top dog player who's stock is rising on his perspective club is  Mr. Samuel Gate @streetThis third year player for the Meute is a defensive juggernaut who can pretty much do it all on the blue line.
Gate is strong like an adolescent bull and he charges like one on the ice, striking fear in opposing players. The only knock on him is he isn't one to use his fists even though he has all the abilities to be a pugilist.
The guy can also skate fast for his size and has elite puck handling and defensive skills. He should make a few voting ballots down the road for future all star games.
I think Gate can be put in all situations on his team and any club would be lucky to have such a strong talent in their perspective organization.
IMO, if Gate were to work on his scoring touch and fisticuffs he would be an all star defence man.
 
                                                                                        TORONTO LEGION
    I'm picking my former teammate Adam Warlock @Green from Toronto. I think with the amount of defensive talent this club has he's worthy and deserves some of the accolades. Plus, I'll pick whomever I want cuz its my article. Now I can't recall if he's been a defence man his whole career or he switched. Then again why am I bringing this up? I don't fuckin know. Whatever.
What I do think is that he doesn't get the recognition he so deserves serving the back end. Wait, that came out wrong but I'm gonna leave it.
Anyhooz, Warlock definitely has solid attritubes but nothing outstanding. Yet he plays like he's an over achiever and there nothing wrong with that shit.
Also what I like about Adam is that he's pretty steady offensively averaging around 35 - 40pts a season. The guys is also steady in the hits and shot blocking departments. He's not very noticeable out there but that's not a bad thing. He reminds me of the NHL's defence man Rob Ramage of the 80's.
Going into midway through the schedule Warlock's at almost a point per game pace so he could beat his previous high points of 65. Personally I hope he does. He's a great guy on and off the ice and it was a pleasure to be his former teammate.
Doesn't get the cred he so deserves...he's a solid MoFo.
 
                                                                                                      RIGA REIGN                                                                  
    This organization is stacked with offensive talent so it was hard ( That's what she said ) to pick a player from the group. With that though my choice will be Leph Twinger @DollarAndADream 
Its back to reality for the guy this year, considering what he achieved in his first VHL season. Then again most of his teammates that played above and beyond have also dropped off. The reason I chose Twinger is due to he's still young and can only see improvement if he keeps training. And I think he'll bounce back eventually. He has too many skilled guys' to play with and that'll help his game.
As for his skill level he  already has elite scoring and defensive abilities. He kinda reminds me of a poor mans McAllister right now. If I was to say the areas he needs to improve on they would be getting stronger and definitely  Leph needs some work on his passing skill.
I also  like that he lays out the big hits on any and everyone. I can see Twinger hovering around the 90 point mark for the rest of his career.  
I have to say that his parents were probably fuct up on crack or some other shit to name their kid Leph Twinger. Definitely a talented shit.
 
                                                                                       SEATTLE BEARS
    First off even though I'm on this club the logo fuckin smokes the pipe till she comes home. Let's get that Atari styled gfx changed man.
Lastly the guy I'm gonna write up about here is my teammate and sometimes line mate with another fuct up name in Mountain Thunderfist(fcuk) @AdamEss
Now  why would I pick this behemoth of a guy to comment on? Well he's big as they come and still raw with a lot of potential.

As it is now Fist is strong in his checking skills and he treats others like they're his little bitches. This player is the anti - cuck alpha male that has nothing to prove. Thunder likes to fight like his smaller teammate Kiaskov and together they both add grit and intensity to the team. The only difference is most don't wanna drop the glove with Mountain, unlike Kiaskov.
Thunderfist leads the team in PM and is third in hits on the club, so you know he's not a soft player. Opposing forwards are fully aware of Thunder so they'd better keep their heads up or be open to a 1990's  Scott Stevens  hit on Eric Lindros scenario.
Leading the bottom of the pack with 5 points he'll only improve upon that if he keeps working on his all around game. At this point Thunderfist plays like his name and is an integral part of the Seattle Bears with the shittiest logo in the VHL.
Every team in the VHL and VHLM all have their stars and depth players. I could have chosen other members of  each team that are deserving but(sex) I felt these guys' were deserving of some accolades. 
Its always the high profile popular players that tend to get all the attention. Sometimes the quiet fly on the wall players need the acknowledgment.
You need to have a mix of skill to find that measure of success.  And the depth players are just as important as the star players. 
So that's it for this short filled media spot on VHL members deserving of recognition in their value to their perspective clubs. Its a wrap.

What I do think is that he doesn't get the recognition he so deserves serving the back end. Wait, that came out wrong but I'm gonna leave it.
Anyhooz, Warlock definitely has solid attritubes but nothing outstanding. Yet he plays like he's an over achiever and there nothing wrong with that shit.
Also what I like about Adam is that he's pretty steady offensively averaging around 35 - 40pts a season. The guys is also steady in the hits and shot blocking departments. He's not very noticeable out there but that's not a bad thing. He reminds me of the NHL's defence man Rob Ramage of the 80's.
Going into midway through the schedule Warlock's at almost a point per game pace so he could beat his previous high points of 65. Personally I hope he does. He's a great guy on and off the ice and it was a pleasure to be his former teammate.
Doesn't get the cred he so deserves...he's a solid MoFo.

    This organization is stacked with offensive talent so it was hard ( That's what she said ) to pick a player from the group. With that though my choice will be Leph Twinger @DollarAndADream 
Its back to reality for the guy this year, considering what he achieved in his first VHL season. Then again most of his teammates that played above and beyond have also dropped off. The reason I chose Twinger is due to he's still young and can only see improvement if he keeps training. And I think he'll bounce back eventually. He has too many skilled guys' to play with and that'll help his game.
As for his skill level he  already has elite scoring and defensive abilities. He kinda reminds me of a poor mans McAllister right now. If I was to say the areas he needs to improve on they would be getting stronger and definitely  Leph needs some work on his passing skill.
I also  like that he lays out the big hits on any and everyone. I can see Twinger hovering around the 90 point mark for the rest of his career.  
I have to say that his parents were probably fuct up on crack or some other shit to name their kid Leph Twinger. Definitely a talented shit.
 
                                                                                       SEATTLE BEARS
    First off even though I'm on this club the logo fuckin smokes the pipe till she comes home. Let's get that Atari styled gfx changed man.
Lastly the guy I'm gonna write up about here is my teammate and sometimes line mate with another fuct up name in Mountain Thunderfist(fcuk) @AdamEss
Now  why would I pick this behemoth of a guy to comment on? Well he's big as they come and still raw with a lot of potential.

As it is now Fist is strong in his checking skills and he treats others like they're his little bitches. This player is the anti - cuck alpha male that has nothing to prove. Thunder likes to fight like his smaller teammate Kiaskov and together they both add grit and intensity to the team. The only difference is most don't wanna drop the glove with Mountain, unlike Kiaskov.
Thunderfist leads the team in PM and is third in hits on the club, so you know he's not a soft player. Opposing forwards are fully aware of Thunder so they'd better keep their heads up or be open to a 1990's  Scott Stevens  hit on Eric Lindros scenario.
Leading the bottom of the pack with 5 points he'll only improve upon that if he keeps working on his all around game. At this point Thunderfist plays like his name and is an integral part of the Seattle Bears with the shittiest logo in the VHL.
Every team in the VHL and VHLM all have their stars and depth players. I could have chosen other members of  each team that are deserving but(sex) I felt these guys' were deserving of some accolades. 
Its always the high profile popular players that tend to get all the attention. Sometimes the quiet fly on the wall players need the acknowledgment.
You need to have a mix of skill to find that measure of success.  And the depth players are just as important as the star players. 
So that's it for this short filled media spot on VHL members deserving of recognition in their value to their perspective clubs. Its a wrap.

PLAYING BY EXAMPLE
  Now I'm gonna give you members the low down on whom I think are some of the non top players making their mark on each club. Feel free to leave a comment on what you think of my write up. 
BTW, I'm trying out a new writing app called Pure Writer. I've replaced it with Writer Plus, which I thoroughly enjoyed but the bitch who made the app wanted access to all phone records, SD card, files etc. My written files would disappear when I denied access, so fuck the coder and fuck his app right up the shitter man.
OK, here we go.....
 
                                                           CALGARY WRANGLERS

    OK, lots of talent on a club that I dislike. Now if my ass had to pick an all around depth player to have on my team from Calgary it would probably be Evan Lawson @diamond_ace
 This guy by today's standards isnt big by all means but he plays larger than his size of 5' 10" 196. Ya gotta love a player who's willing go give it his all game in and game out. Players like this are the ones who are willing to go into the dirty areas of the ice and do battle for the puck and take one for the team. Every club needs a spark plug type of player like Lawson to fire up their team mates.
He's steadily improved his offensive numbers since he's joined the Wranglers. Last season he put up a respectable 30g and 40a in 72gp and Lawson is on pace for another point per game as well.
His hit totals could get close to 250 which has almost tripled from last years play and he should surpass last seasons shot block totals as well. What has dropped however is his GW, PPG and SHG due to getting less time on specialty team play but that's no fault of his own.
Skill wise nothing particularly stands out in his attributes but Lawson has an all around solid game. If you were to pick positives in the guys' play I'd say his skating and scoring would be his strong suits.
Its the little things these players do that make them valuable to a club. Where you get the high profile players who get all points and accolades, these guys' are the front line soldiers that do all the dirty shit and really don't get noticed. All hail Evan Lawson!
 
                                                                                                               HC DAVOS

    OK, pickins are slim on a club that's seen a number of changes this past season. Its like at the end of the night at a bar and all that's left are the women that no one wants to go home with. Ya just wanna  tap some ass but there's not much to choose from so you look for the one that seems to have the most potential.
So here goes.... This guy is Jacob Smith @jacobaa19. Yes, him. In only his second year with Davos he is on pace to almost double the offensive output from his inaugural season.
For Smiths 6' 180 lb size he enjoys laying the hits on opposing players. He is also adept at shot blocking which helps his goalie out when the netminder is down and out of the play. Jacob is a solid if unspectacular defence man on the blue line and he can be counted upon  at even strength and on special teams play. The only shit stain on his resume is his +/- but its indicative of the whole team in this department. I think Smith can only get better as he gains more experience and maturity. 
This would be the girl that you would leave with at the end of the night and luck out with as she'd surprise you by shaggin your your hammer and beans raw and you'd be surprised how adept she was in the sack.
The defence man that you don't notice on the ice but does all the little things right = Jacob Smith.
 
                                                                                          HELSINKI TITANS
   For my choice on the Titans I have to pick  Sidney Crosby @SidTheKid87I like this kid more than that other Crosby in the NHL.  Anyways this kid has good size and a set of good wheels for the weight he carries. He's also strong carrying and dishing the puck off to teammates.
 Crosby is very mature defensively for a first year pro and I love the fact that he keeps opposing players on their toes as he plays an aggressive style of game. Sid's also a man amongst men when it comes to shot blocking. In this area he's on pace for about 300 which is a crazy amount if you ask me. I like this rough and tumble young player and I believe the sky's the limit for this bugger. At the pace he is on he could reach 50 - 55 points this year. Expect more from this scrappy bastard. 
As far as potential goes Sid The Kid's ceiling is high as a kite. Smoke that ganja.
 
                                                          NEW YORK AMERICANS

    Actually for a team that's lacking any depth what so ever, I think the players on this club all have potential to be to be first line talent if they so apply themselves. We'll see how they turn out in the future.
Right now I'm reviewing this guy... defence man Joseph McWolf @McWolf. The first year player has made a good impression on NY with 5g and 31pts in 38 games this season.
The bonus to this guy's game is that he hits opponents as much as Floyd Mayweather hits his women around. The only difference is McWolf doesn't get domestic assault charges against him.
And this kid is also pretty good at blocking shot in from of his own net. He also has a bit of a mean streak to him as well.
McWolf plays the game unlike a lot of the VHL's sissy Euro style players. Watching him is like seeing a flashback of a  70 - 80's player. Ya gotta dig that throwback old school type of game.
All he needs to do is take his protein and creatine powder and juice up on the PEDS to add bulk to that 6' 2" lanky frame to be more effective. The skies the limit for McWolf. Reach for it.
 
                                                                                QUEBEC CITY MEUTE

    Next up on my non top dog player who's stock is rising on his perspective club is  Mr. Samuel Gate @streetThis third year player for the Meute is a defensive juggernaut who can pretty much do it all on the blue line.
Gate is strong like an adolescent bull and he charges like one on the ice, striking fear in opposing players. The only knock on him is he isn't one to use his fists even though he has all the abilities to be a pugilist.
The guy can also skate fast for his size and has elite puck handling and defensive skills. He should make a few voting ballots down the road for future all star games.
I think Gate can be put in all situations on his team and any club would be lucky to have such a strong talent in their perspective organization.
IMO, if Gate were to work on his scoring touch and fisticuffs he would be an all star defence man.

Ya just wanna  tap some ass but there's not much to choose from so you look for the one that seems to have the most potential.
So here goes.... This guy is Jacob Smith @jacobaa19. Yes, him. In only his second year with Davos he is on pace to almost double the offensive output from his inaugural season.
For Smiths 6' 180 lb size he enjoys laying the hits on opposing players. He is also adept at shot blocking which helps his goalie out when the netminder is down and out of the play. Jacob is a solid if unspectacular defence man on the blue line and he can be counted upon  at even strength and on special teams play. The only shit stain on his resume is his +/- but its indicative of the whole team in this department. I think Smith can only get better as he gains more experience and maturity. 
This would be the girl that you would leave with at the end of the night and luck out with as she'd surprise you by shaggin your your hammer and beans raw and you'd be surprised how adept she was in the sack.
The defence man that you don't notice on the ice but does all the little things right = Jacob Smith.
 
                                                                                          HELSINKI TITANS
   For my choice on the Titans I have to pick  Sidney Crosby @SidTheKid87I like this kid more than that other Crosby in the NHL.  Anyways this kid has good size and a set of good wheels for the weight he carries. He's also strong carrying and dishing the puck off to teammates.
 Crosby is very mature defensively for a first year pro and I love the fact that he keeps opposing players on their toes as he plays an aggressive style of game. Sid's also a man amongst men when it comes to shot blocking. In this area he's on pace for about 300 which is a crazy amount if you ask me. I like this rough and tumble young player and I believe the sky's the limit for this bugger. At the pace he is on he could reach 50 - 55 points this year. Expect more from this scrappy bastard. 
As far as potential goes Sid The Kid's ceiling is high as a kite. Smoke that ganja.
 
                                                          NEW YORK AMERICANS

    Actually for a team that's lacking any depth what so ever, I think the players on this club all have potential to be to be first line talent if they so apply themselves. We'll see how they turn out in the future.
Right now I'm reviewing this guy... defence man Joseph McWolf @McWolf. The first year player has made a good impression on NY with 5g and 31pts in 38 games this season.
The bonus to this guy's game is that he hits opponents as much as Floyd Mayweather hits his women around. The only difference is McWolf doesn't get domestic assault charges against him.
And this kid is also pretty good at blocking shot in from of his own net. He also has a bit of a mean streak to him as well.
McWolf plays the game unlike a lot of the VHL's sissy Euro style players. Watching him is like seeing a flashback of a  70 - 80's player. Ya gotta dig that throwback old school type of game.
All he needs to do is take his protein and creatine powder and juice up on the PEDS to add bulk to that 6' 2" lanky frame to be more effective. The skies the limit for McWolf. Reach for it.
 
                                                                                QUEBEC CITY MEUTE

    Next up on my non top dog player who's stock is rising on his perspective club is  Mr. Samuel Gate @streetThis third year player for the Meute is a defensive juggernaut who can pretty much do it all on the blue line.
Gate is strong like an adolescent bull and he charges like one on the ice, striking fear in opposing players. The only knock on him is he isn't one to use his fists even though he has all the abilities to be a pugilist.
The guy can also skate fast for his size and has elite puck handling and defensive skills. He should make a few voting ballots down the road for future all star games.
I think Gate can be put in all situations on his team and any club would be lucky to have such a strong talent in their perspective organization.
IMO, if Gate were to work on his scoring touch and fisticuffs he would be an all star defence man.
 
                                                                                        TORONTO LEGION
    I'm picking my former teammate Adam Warlock @Green from Toronto. I think with the amount of defensive talent this club has he's worthy and deserves some of the accolades. Plus, I'll pick whomever I want cuz its my article. Now I can't recall if he's been a defence man his whole career or he switched. Then again why am I bringing this up? I don't fuckin know. Whatever.
What I do think is that he doesn't get the recognition he so deserves serving the back end. Wait, that came out wrong but I'm gonna leave it.
Anyhooz, Warlock definitely has solid attritubes but nothing outstanding. Yet he plays like he's an over achiever and there nothing wrong with that shit.
Also what I like about Adam is that he's pretty steady offensively averaging around 35 - 40pts a season. The guys is also steady in the hits and shot blocking departments. He's not very noticeable out there but that's not a bad thing. He reminds me of the NHL's defence man Rob Ramage of the 80's.
Going into midway through the schedule Warlock's at almost a point per game pace so he could beat his previous high points of 65. Personally I hope he does. He's a great guy on and off the ice and it was a pleasure to be his former teammate.
Doesn't get the cred he so deserves...he's a solid MoFo.
 
                                                                                                      RIGA REIGN                                                                  
    This organization is stacked with offensive talent so it was hard ( That's what she said ) to pick a player from the group. With that though my choice will be Leph Twinger @DollarAndADream 
Its back to reality for the guy this year, considering what he achieved in his first VHL season. Then again most of his teammates that played above and beyond have also dropped off. The reason I chose Twinger is due to he's still young and can only see improvement if he keeps training. And I think he'll bounce back eventually. He has too many skilled guys' to play with and that'll help his game.
As for his skill level he  already has elite scoring and defensive abilities. He kinda reminds me of a poor mans McAllister right now. If I was to say the areas he needs to improve on they would be getting stronger and definitely  Leph needs some work on his passing skill.
I also  like that he lays out the big hits on any and everyone. I can see Twinger hovering around the 90 point mark for the rest of his career.  
I have to say that his parents were probably fuct up on crack or some other shit to name their kid Leph Twinger. Definitely a talented shit.
 
                                                                                       SEATTLE BEARS
    First off even though I'm on this club the logo fuckin smokes the pipe till she comes home. Let's get that Atari styled gfx changed man.
Lastly the guy I'm gonna write up about here is my teammate and sometimes line mate with another fuct up name in Mountain Thunderfist(fcuk) @AdamEss
Now  why would I pick this behemoth of a guy to comment on? Well he's big as they come and still raw with a lot of potential.

As it is now Fist is strong in his checking skills and he treats others like they're his little bitches. This player is the anti - cuck alpha male that has nothing to prove. Thunder likes to fight like his smaller teammate Kiaskov and together they both add grit and intensity to the team. The only difference is most don't wanna drop the glove with Mountain, unlike Kiaskov.
Thunderfist leads the team in PM and is third in hits on the club, so you know he's not a soft player. Opposing forwards are fully aware of Thunder so they'd better keep their heads up or be open to a 1990's  Scott Stevens  hit on Eric Lindros scenario.
Leading the bottom of the pack with 5 points he'll only improve upon that if he keeps working on his all around game. At this point Thunderfist plays like his name and is an integral part of the Seattle Bears with the shittiest logo in the VHL.
Every team in the VHL and VHLM all have their stars and depth players. I could have chosen other members of  each team that are deserving but(sex) I felt these guys' were deserving of some accolades. 
Its always the high profile popular players that tend to get all the attention. Sometimes the quiet fly on the wall players need the acknowledgment.
You need to have a mix of skill to find that measure of success.  And the depth players are just as important as the star players. 
So that's it for this short filled media spot on VHL members deserving of recognition in their value to their perspective clubs. Its a wrap.
Word count minus these ones: 2043
Claiming for the weeks of Nov 11, 18, 25 and Dec 2.
    

    
    
    

 

You guys got lucky!

Wow that was a shit kicker!

I totally agree with Spade, this is a winner DnD!
Awesome use of blue, black and white colors and patterns in the back drop.
You have a combo of sharpness/ softness blended into the players uniform and helmet/face.
Same with the two fonts. Just didn't like the fonts overlapping each other.
And logo change? Rangers suck.
Worth at least a 6(pack)/6
 

The Helsinki Titans will move from "retired jerseys" to a ring of honour in the rafters of Hartwall Arena. With that switch, it was time to add some long overdue names to that list, six to be exact, a veritable who's who of VHL leadership throughout the years:
 
Theo Axelsson S53-57 @solas
Greg Clegane S45-48 @Victor
Franchise Cornerstone S53-60 @boubabi
Phil Hamilton S45-48 @Phil
Aleksi Koponen S45-48 @Will
Astrid Moon S53-58 @Trifecta
Tomas Tukio S31-36 @Higgins
Jake Wylde S38-42 @STZ
 

we need this for the VHLM, that would be so cool to watch
 

Seattle -- As it stands, the Seattle Bears are locked in. They currently sit with 46 points in 30 games, just two points behind the first place Reign and one point behind the second place Wranglers, while also having played one fewer game than either of those teams. The Bears could very well be a contender for the top record in the league just one year after playing in the play-in game.
 
But of course, there’s one issue that could keep the Bears at bay, and no, it has nothing to do with their players or front office: it’s the schedule. Out of those 30 games, the Bears have played 10 against the Americans, 7 against the Titans and 4 against the Davos – 70 percent of their games against the bottom three teams in the league. Throw in 2 games against the Legion, and the Bears have only played their competitors for the top spot in the league 7 times this season.
 
That means the schedule’s going to get much harder, very quickly, particularly with a season-ending stretch that sees Seattle play Riga in 4 of its final 6 games. But forward Gabriel McAllister believes that the tough schedule will do the team some good.
 
“We’ve mostly beaten the teams we’re supposed to beat, but even losing a few against good teams can be good for growth,” McAllister said. “It’s all about the playoffs in our sport, and I’ve gone from finishing third or below to the championship twice. If we can take something from this tough upcoming stretch and learn from it, it’ll be a good thing.”

This has been a long fucking week for me and I'm burnt out. I'm not even going to try and earn my cap so I'll finish up after this 590.
Anyways, what with work, school, Reno's, my kid and wife it feels like I go non stop all day everyday. I'm not gonna get into detail but my day starts anywhere from 5am until 11pm with no sleep in between. And by the time I get home from work ,eat, shit n shower its time for bed at around 12:30 am.
 
Its becoming hard to stay motivated  and keep up with playing the game and getting my TPE in. I keep trying but my energy is low. I'll do my best to keep up with what I can. I'm not going to bs but I think I'll be happy when Kiaskov retires.
 
Well, this year I think is the season Kiaskov actually may break 80 points, all the while playing defence. It helps that Seattle has a pretty stacked team and that I'm getting ample ice time. I had thought about switching to D last year and was waiting for the chance. Too bad it was so late in my virtual career.
In reality, I've based my player on my skills and Kiaskov's play so far has been pretty accurate in simulation. The only thing that's not close in attribute would be the skating. I'm not fleet of foot but am strong and hard knock off my skates. So its interesting to see how Kiaskov has played out in the VHL. The team is a contender, so is Kiaskov, and I think there's a really good chance for Seattle to be contending for cup.
 
Gotta be 200 + words.
 
 

 
 

you want it you got it (old school but still cool)

So, I don't have my laptop with me, but wanted to claim at least one 590 today since I'm once again procrastinating at work. For anyone who actually reads this, it's basically a rip-off of Elt Frdmn's 31 Thts, where I post some random musings about the league.
 
This season has seen a bit of a contrast from last season, in terms of offense. It's still there, but we're averaging about 5.75 GPG throughout the league's first 75 games. Compare it to last season, where the league averaged 6.27 GPG, and we're down more than half a goal per game. A large part of that is goaltending, where a lot of the league's goaltenders were still fairly raw last season, and have taken a step forward this season. But could it also be due to deeper rosters? The dip in scoring can also be noticed in the league's scoring leaders. Last season's phenom, Podrick Cast, who lead the league with 174 points, is currently having his worst season to date, with just 20 points through his first 19 games, sitting outside the top 10 in all offensive categories. Riga is a much deeper team, this season, and that may very well be the cause of this Podrick-Power-Outage, as the Reign have still managed 57 goals, good for 3 GPG. Leading the league in the early going is resurgent Gabriel McAllister. After falling 1-point short of the century mark, in a season where many players had their best offensive seasons, Gabe has scored 15 goals and 22 assists, to average over 2-points-per-game thus far. McAllister seems poised to break both the 400-goal and 800-point benchmarks for his career, in this, his final season, as he vies to end his career with a bang. If he continues this pace, it would be hard to bet against him winning his third each of the Scotty Campbell and Scott Boulet trophies, as the leagues MVP and best 2-way player, respectively. If the Bears can pull out a Continental Cup, that'd give him a third one of those as well (and he already has 2 Kanou trophies to his name). Look for him to be a sure-fire S64 HOF Inductee, as one of the best to ever lace them up in the VHL!  
Yeah, that's definitely more than 200 words...

We really owe this dude a lot. Doing all of that for 3.5 years himself, taking the time to do it despite the fact he could do something else, you got to respect that. Despite people continuously complaining about how the VHLM seasons take so long to start (myself guilty), he never backed down.
 
Thank you @Higgins!

Thats a long time Higs! Congrats man ???

Hey, it’s ya boy. I play in the VHLM for the Las Vegas Aces. I’m gonna talk about my first impressions about the league...
 
So far it’s honestly been great. At first I was confused on how to make my player better but with the help of my teammates and the Inter-Galactic Starlord (Jubo07) I have gotten the hang of it. Mostly.
 
Other than the mechanics I’m impressed with the community (and lack of Canucks fans). Not many good hockey communities like this out there and I really appreciate this being there for me to spam my memes and be the weird kid I am.
 
I think I should also address my goals. I think my main focus is to establish myself as a reliable goal producer in the league. I would like to also be helpful in the d-zone and be defensively responsible and not just pounding pucks at the net.
 
Thats about it, ya boi Dil tuning out.

New York Americans winger Dan Wilinsky was arrested in a Seattle nightclub late last week after an altercation with a hipster claiming to be a Bears fan.
 
According to police reports and statements from witnesses, the hipster was celebrating the latest Bears victory over the Americans and started singing the Bears fight song in front of Wilinsky, who reportedly started twitching and slammed a table down on the hipsters head, breaking his glasses and spilling his Starbucks on his plaid shirt.
 
After he was booked in at the station, Wilinsky was released after being diagnosed with mild PTSD from facing the Seattle Bears a ridiculous 11 times in New York's first 13 games. Chief Poleese of the Seatlle Police Department said it was understandable that Wilinsky felt that way after that many games against one team.
 
Wilinsky rejoined his team for their flight back to New York, and while the hipster is still in hospital, the VHL said he wouldn't suffer any further punishment, as Dan had already been through enough.
 
The Americans had a porous 2-9 record against the Bears. They won't face each other again this season, giving Wilinsky plenty of time to recover and attempt to salvage the Americans season.

I prefer it this way now. It's less work/time to get things done. I found all the manual input just to earn TPE a chore when I first started. At least now members have more time for gfx, articles etc.
It takes too long to get shit done here the other way. Knowing what I do now I wouldn't have played this game if I was new here and had to get tasks done the previous method.

You wont find his name on the score sheet, probably wont even see him much on the ice due to his 5 foot 6 frame. Where you will find him though is in your face, blocking a shot, throwing a punch, or in the penalty box. The enforcer has done what he was advertised as, hes hitting played like a truck, getting under the opponenets skin in the box, and saving a few goals with his legs, body, and head. 
 
Hes not Sergei who stepped onto the VHL scene with a bang racking up 500points well crushing bodies. Hes not Pavel who moved the puck to his forwards with elegant grace, with his slick play making skills. Hes not even Vlad who was a revered defensive juggernaught of the Dynamo. Like the 3 Komarovs before him hes a different beast all together. 
 
Even Vlad whose known for his physical play, says he wouldnt be shocked to see his name compete with Edwin Encarnation for the toughest son of a ***** on the ice in VHL history. His tenacity is unmatched for his size, always standing up for teammates waiting to drop the gloves. 
 
In a league full of players wanting to be the next Franchise Cornerstone, Gabriel Mcallister, or Mason Richardson. Komarov continues to be a family name that wants to build away from status quo. The toughest family to ever grace the VHL ice surface with over 3000hits in their careers, thousands of PIMS its clear the family wants to be unique even if it means the agent will never grace the VHL HOF.
