Hey VHLMers (and anyone else who reads this!) Last season I started an article which each week analyzed TPE factors for each team. These factors include each teams total TPE, the weekly increases, the average TPE per player on the team, the teams relative position in the league, and which player was the current highers TPE earner. Sally forth and let me show off my greatest life skill which is over analyzing everything and not really gaining insight from it! Pre-season: Team Total TPE (Increased TPE) Average TPE per player League Position Top TPE Earner 1. Oslo Storm 1073 (0) 59.61 (18 players) D - Nicodemus Raven, TPE: 107 (SEA). 2.

Las Vegas Aces 816 (+8) 54.4 (15 players) 4 D - Colton Rayne, TPE: 192 (22 Banked) League Total TPE 4963 (+92) 65.30 (76 players) A significant dip in updating this week. After the initial rush of the season, we seem to have settled into a bit of a doldrum. The Storm have the best increase again, but that is more from them adding a new player than anything. They take first place over from the Lynx. The Lynx also have a little bump up, but it seems to be only one player updated. they drop down to second. The Wild, also have a one player update and hold steady in third across the board. The Rush actually have the second highest increase! But unfortunately it is only 14 TPE, and they're still in last place. The Aces have the lowest increase, yet still sit in 4th in the league. A generally unassuming week as far as TPE progression goes. HOWEVER. An insider tells me (it's me) that there are some SERIOUS trade talks being thrown around the VHLM right now, with earth shattering moves coming left and right. This time next week, the landscape of the VHLM could be unrecognizable. Very exciting! Thanks for reading as always. Best, Spade

Our order stays the same, but now we get to see where everyone lands standings wise after a few games simmed. The Storm are still number 1 with an impressive team gain of 147 TPE. Despite impressive numbers, The Storm sit in second place. Upon further investigation, I found that they and the Lynx are even across the board as far as record goes. The Lynx get the leg up in first place as they have won the only tilt between the two teams this year. Also, just want to give huge props to Jasper Canmore @Bushito who made absolutely insane gains since last week. Speaking of the Lynx, Ottawa had the 2nd best gain this week. This gain vaulter the team into the quadruple digits TPE wise, making them the second team to hit 4 numbers! Their Team average is staggeringly high compared to the rest of the league, but that may be because they have the 2nd fewest players. They hold onto the first because of their previously mentioned tie breaker with the Strom. The Wild had the weakest increase this week, seeing their players only increase a grand total of 26 points. They have a strong average, but have the fewest players in the league. As a team with so much "this but that" it makes sense that they hold strong at third place in both TPE ranking, and in the league. Next come the Yukon Rush they made some decent gains, but all it's good for is last place. They do have 2 wins, which is more than the Aces, but have no overtime loses, and less goals, which hurts them in the standing and leaves them in last place. Last is the Las Vegas Aces. The Ace's have the lowest TPE, yet had the third highest gains this week. They sit in 4th place with 4 points, tied with the Rush. Even though they have 1 win, The Aces have been better than their record shows. 1 loss came in over time and 1 in the shoot out. The Aces have also put up the most goals in 1 game this season with 10! It should be an interesting ride from here. Olso and Ottawa seem to be the most active, but with a few players on the docket to join the league, we could see some serious shake up in the next few days. Thanks for reading as always. Best, Spade

Vegas Offers $1Million. I would be happy to play you top line opposite Lavar Ball. That would be a powerful scoring line.

Team "officials" will be "escorting" Ber D2 "out to a hole in the desert" so that these distractions can be a thing of the past.

even worse poser

ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED!?!? Great game out of Ball @Mr.Baller and Toivonen @James
