  1. The Las Vegas Aces are boasting some serious talent who will be available for the S59 VHL Draft. Leading the way is Goalie Marcel St. Laurent @Frank. St. Laurent is in second place in the VHLM in both wins and save percentage with one less game played behind Ottawa Goalie O'Tarth. Even more impressively, St. Laurent leads the league in GAA. A true puck stopper, St. Laurent's numbers only look to get better as he improves, and as his teammates in front of him improve. Building from the net out, Defenseman Brandon Hood @philthethrill81, is the rock and soul of Las Vegas' blue line. He is top 10 in hits, shots blocked, and PIMS. More impressively, he has the most assists in the VHLM this season, and sits in second place in defenseman scoring in the entire league! Vegas is rumored to be shopping for a defensive partner for the star blue liner, so things tend to be looking up for Hood in the future. Evan R. Lawson @diamond_ace and Gary Goose @fruitcake play the wings on Vegas' Top line. Goose is in top 10 in goal scoring in the league this year, and Lawson is putting up solid numbers, good enough for 6th place among left wingers in the VHLM. A little more effort in practice and these two players have bright futures ahead of them! Keep an eye for some of these players to be plucked from the pile early in the draft this year.

    Is it too late to put a bid in? I was dying in bed for the last week. Also I would offer 2 mil and top pairing. But I also understand if this is too late

  7. We return now to A Draft In Review. This week, we focus on the Las Vegas Aces of the VHLM, and we review their most recent draft for the S58 Season. 1 (1) - With the first pick in the draft, the Aces took Goalie Marcel St. Laurent @Frank. Marcel has reflexes like a cat and is known for giving up next to no rebounds. Hockey experts say that great teams are built from the net out, and the Ace's have a foundation of steel with St.Laurent minding the twine this year. 1 (4) - The Aces second selection was the fourth pick of the draft, Defenseman Brandon Hood @philthethrill81. Hood is a great shut down defenseman. He plays angles like he's shooting pool, and he's quick on his skates for a player of his size. He makes a great first pass and will be the anchor on the Ace's blue line this year. 2 (6) - With the first pick of the second round, the Aces took Ebi Shpeen @.sniffuM. Ebi is a tough player who loves to bang the body and create space on the ice. Ebi throws his body the way shutdown defenseman do, and is immovable from in front of the net. He will center the Aces top line this year. 2 (9) - With the ninth overall pick in the draft, Vegas surprised a few people and took winger Evan R. Lawson @diamond_ace. A late comer to the draft, some expected the power forward to fall into the next round. The Aces however, saw a fit in their rough and tumble scheme for the winger. His size and fearlessness in the corner and in front of the net, mixed with some nice hands, has scouts harkening back to Corey Perry, though they also comment that Lawson's personality is much kinder than the aforementioned Duck. 2 (10) - This pick originally belonged to the Aces, but because of a rule in the VHLM they were forced to trade the pick, or risk losing it for nothing. The Aces GM Spade, turned this pick into Ottawa's 3rd round pick next year. 3 (11) - With the first pick in the the third round, the Aces took scoring winger Gary Goose @fruitcake. GM Spade was quoted as being "shocked and relieved" that the future sniper was still available at the beginning of the third round. Goose will be the offensive brunt of the Ace's playing on the top line opposite of Lawson. 3 (14) - The Aces last pick in the draft was spent on Finnish defenseman Joona Makela @JoonaIceman. A well rounded defenseman, Makela has the ability to chip in offensively, while also holding his own quite well in his own end. Makela has been absent from practice recently, but GM Spade still has high hopes for his defenseman and has paired him opposite of Hood on the top pairing.
  8. yea, there are some rosters that don't appear to be updated, but i work with what I can.
  9. VHLers FROM FAR AND WIDE. GATHER ROUND FOR THE THIRD ITERATION OF THIS MADE CIRCUS OF DEATH WE REFER TO AS THE VHLM WEEKLY TPE RANKINGS. GUARD YE LOINS AND WITNESS ME AS I break down the TPE dispersal among your VHLM teams. Gleam from it what you may, I hope at least one person gets some use out of it. Week 1: Team Total TPE (Increased TPE) Average TPE per player League Position Top TPE Earner 1. Ottawa Lynx 1067 (0) 88.91 (12 players) 1 RW - Lavar Ball, TPE: 165 (QUE) 2. Oslo Storm 948 (0) 63.2 (15 players) 5 LW - Ivan Morozov, TPE: 199 (24 Banked)(CGY) 3. Yukon Rush 765 (0) 47.81 (16 players) 2 C - The Charm, TPE: 84 & D - Luc-Pierre Lespineau-Lebrunette, TPE: 84 4. Saskatoon Wild 734 (0) 73.4 (10 players) 4 D - Dragon McDragon, TPE: 168 (DAV) 5. Las Vegas Aces 692 (0) 40.71 (17 players) 3 G - Marcel St-Laurent, TPE: 135 (QUE) League Total TPE 4206 (+0) 48.91 (86 players) The season is still early so there isnt too much to go off of yet. What we can see is that the standing are all over the board, with TPE ranking not having much to do with how teams have preformed in their first two or three games as these new players adjust to their surrounding. Ottawa is out to a strong lead, bringing back many of their high TPE players for their third and final season. It has launched them into a strong 1st place lead and they begin the season around the same TPE value they began last season with. Is there another finals run in this team? Will they finally win one? or be three times the bridesmaid? Hopefully GM @Beaviss can final make the leap and join the ranks of the Founders cup champion GMs. Oslo, our defending champions, Came in strong TPE wise with just under a thousand team wise. But it looks like a few graduates of their championship team took the chemistry with them and the team has stumbled out of the gate losing all three of their games in regulation. We can expect them to turn it around as the season progresses, but this is not a strong start for the kings of the hill. Yukon was one team which was LAIDEN with draft picks this year. I mean this draft was pretty much just them and Vegas. It seems to be working out well so far for the Rush as they have settled in nicely to second place in the standings and third place in the TPE ranking and growing. Two of their high picks, The Charm @Tyler and LPL2 @FacePuncher lead the charge together as Yukons Highest TPE earners, both tied at 84. The Saskatoon Wild are... wow, actually for the first time ever, exactly where I expected them to be. Usually this team is like in 4th for TPE ranking, 2nd in standings, and last in average TPE, and makes no sense, but they're 4th across the board. Tight ship Wild, thank you. And last we come to the Las Vegas Aces. Last year's bottom feeders start in the same spot TPE wise, but an abundance of high draft picks and a prime goalie in Marcel St. Laurent @Frank, The Aces will look to climb the TPE rankings this year, and are holding strong in 3rd place in the standings. We'll see how this exciting year will play out in the VHLM! As always, thanks for reading. Best, Spade
