Kendrick

I think it's cute that DT thinks his player matter, considering not even he believes they do. (Proof from past players) #Facts @Beketov

"I'm not really sure why people are still saying Riga and I won't be a thing because they think I hate Riga. I stated I'd go to Riga if they are committed to winning, much like every other team", said Markus King after a pre-draft workout for the VHL General Managers. King mentioned that Davos rose on his draft interests board because of their change in management and a new commitment to winning. Calgary also rose a bit just because of management changes, although the state of their prospects cupboard is a little bleak. Toronto remains a very possible destination as King has stated he wouldn't mind staying in Canada to build another dynasty in Toronto. King's agent Joey Kendrick also was the agent for former Toronto Legion winger Malcolm Kelly back in the 14th VHL Season. No one team was really crossed off his list for interested places however, Stockholm did mention they weren't taking a long look at the goaltender in the pre-draft workouts. King is committed to becoming a Hall-of-Fame goaltender and that sparked the interest of the Helsinki Titans who currently don't own a goaltender with that ceiling.

Kappa? DT? Which ones are those

Same here!

Knew it

Hello everyone who is still with us! This journey is nearing an end as by the time the VHLSC gets set to write another rankings article, this draft year will have past and the players will go from draft hopefuls to prospects. Don't fret though, we got this one last issue before we hit the big day. Obviously this past couple weeks we have been seeing a ton of VHL Entry Draft Mock Drafts done by various people throughout our community. If you haven't got one done it isn't too late now and you can go create one. However, because of this influx of mock drafts we feel it might be overkill for us at VHLSC to do one this time around. So what did we do instead you ask, well we built the perfect skater and goaltender using the qualities that the current crop of VHL draft hopefuls contain. If you look below we got two different shadows consisting of parts from various different draft eligible players. So enough talking and more graphics! HOCKEY SENSE: Verner Reinholdt @Devise We chose Verner here because his knowledge of the game seems to be the highest of any draft hopeful. Verner possesses a strong sense of intelligence on the ice and also is graced with exceptional know-how in regards to positioning. His passing is second to none and ability to play on special teams and even strength make him valuable. FRAME: Fook Yu @tfong Fook Yu is a solid piece of meat put on skates to wreck havoc. Yu has a large frame with some muscles behind him but also is the king of hitting and going after star players. We don't think Yu will have many friends on the opposing teams. HANDS: Shawn Gretzky @TheLastOlympian07 Gretzky isn't like his relative because he is going into the VHL and not the NHL. Shawn does have some pretty hands though and his ability to dish the puck and also be creative when handling the puck set him apart from his counterparts. SCORING: Takashi Fujimoto @HFD This one might boost his stock a bit more than other player. Fujimoto is being looked at as a player in the second half of the first round. We are here to tell you that he is the best scorer in this draft class and if you want offence, this is the guy you want to select. SKATING: Rudolph Schmeckeldorf @Corco Rudolph the red-nosed speed skater is what he is being hailed as. Schmeckeldorf is the fastest skater in this draft year and if you want a speedy winger with a ton of potential this is your guy. Not to mention Rudolph has been very consistent in the draft rankings and in any other year would be a Top 3 Selection. REACTION TIME: Torstein Ironside @DollarAndADream Torstein Ironside is the fastest goaltender in this draft when it comes to moving laterally in his crease. His ability to stretch across makes him a goaltender who is never truly out of a play regardless of the move put on him. POSITIONING: Vernon Von Axelberry @BobertZ Vernon Von Axelberry might be the third best option at the goaltender position but his positioning is tops in this draft year. His ability to square to the shooter and take away portions of the net that a shooter would normally find right away is superb. GLOVE REFLEXES: Markus King @Kendrick Torstein may have the sharpest head when it comes to stretching across, but Markus King has a glove hand that is just filthy. King will usually do the flashy glove save just to build some momentum for his club when they are hemmed into their own zone. REBOUND CONTROL: Markus King Markus King shows up again but this time it's for his recognition of where to steer the puck upon saving it. This is key so that rebounds aren't tucked home and the blue liners are left shaking their heads. PUCK HANDLING: Torstein Ironside Ironside shows up again and this time it's for his ability to move the puck. Often a forgotten goaltender skill is to be able to move the puck and provide a good outlet pass for your forwards. Ironside showed up on the scoresheet a few times this past seasons.

Ko Kain.

I will be away from the 2nd-9th in California Calgary, although I'd prefer the first one.

Player Name: Tyson Kohler VHL Team: Stockholm Vikings Cash you have: $9,000,000 Purchase Name: Jaromir Jagr Cost of Purchase: $6,000,000 Cash Left: $3,000,000

I feel 4 is somewhat ironic.

Oh I totally agree with you, he is robbing the west because thats not where his following is.

Im here to get weird

Um...he did schooling out in BC. Last time he came here it was a publicists nightmare

I demand a re-sim, no update on the Euro side haha

I was just shooting the shit

To add to that, if the league can't go back and review things to ensure proper punishment is served for all things (not just hits to the head) then really, what exactly are they doing? I get they want to be as proactive as possible, but if they cant even be reactive whats the point.

You know uncooked chicken

I heard Fong likes raw chicken.

I don't think anyone is denying his low TPE level Fong. You must have missed the part where Moon was trash talking to members who have actually kept a player past 2 seasons.

Its the reason he is a Trump supporter, facts/stats don't matter they just go off their largely uneducated opinions.

I always read Petenis as Penis. Not sure why he named him Penis.

But remember when you were talking about Holik's rookie year on a rebuilding team and your rookie year on a playoff team? Those statistics were fun when I brought out Mikaelson's stats. That was a fun thread.
