Its more so because the 1-2 TPE per week from the start haha

Have you done your RP and Auto?

I edited some logo I found somewhere haha

Hello everyone! Welcome back to the latest edition of the VHLSC Rankings and prospect showcase. We got ourselves a new swanky logo at the top for presentation, which means hopefully we hit big time soon. Anyways this past two weeks gave us a huge indication of who wants to compete for the number one selection and who has forgotten about hockey altogether. A lot of movement and a ton of progression happened in the past 14 days. This weeks showcase is all about graphs. After high school you thought you may never seen graphs again but because of Nickelback memes, graphs are back in a big way! More on that later, first we bring you the bi-weekly overview. Bobby Digital had the biggest experience in the gym the past two week, including his muscle size and his stock in the upcoming draft. Digital was our top earner but many others were right on his heels. Titan Kronos, AK47 and Mario Lee all jumped the most in the standings, however Lee is somewhat of a lost cause right now considering he was jumping guys in the early twenty positions. With Lee we think he is one of those players who will always be stuck on the front nine and won't be able to finish the course. Shoutout to Asher Donovan who joined the draft and is contending for a position in the first round really fast. Now time for some Chad Kroeger!

Thats what was said last time haha.

I know, I didn't make enough promises I can't complete. Then it would be a true Robbie Article.

Not a half bad season thus far with the upstart Express. Has struggled a little bit to find the scoresheet but that happens when you have passing at 40. Then again I've had a few players of mine have great rookie and sophomore seasons and then simply coast the rest of the way at an above average rate. I'd much prefer to either spread that out over an entire career than to be basically one/two and done. Regarding Cologne, it's actually a cool environment with Greg and the boys. The Lockerroom is responsive and everyone seems to want to improve when they have the time to do so. Looking to do some damage in the playoffs and maybe take down the shitty Stockholm team that they currently have with overaged bums and shitty players. That last sentence was mean, I hope no one got hurt by it. Maybe I do, maybe I don't. #RobbieTypeArticle

Yup.

Figured I'd try something different and bring the idea over from the real thing

The above comment was a joke. Although I still think a 2nd should be given up considering it is what we set aside for GM's having to claim their player. The point in which Kraken reaches the Vikings roster is actually less of an issue than anything, its the fact they haven't sacrificed anything which Davos, Toronto and Seattle all did. Hell even I had to spend a 1st round pick on my player.

Thats about right.

Meh, not convinced. Just a lot of ducking around.

Europe is a nice place to travel, but is it a nice place to work? "I never truly knew what I was in for, I just knew it was far from home." My knowledge of the entire continent was thin, I'll be the first to admit that. However, I'm almost glad it was think because I relate that lack of knowledge to a painters canvas. It allowed me to be opened up to things I've never experienced or even had prior thoughts about. My lack of understanding because a lack of patience for sitting around without sight seeing. On the flight over to Cologne I really had no clue what I was in for. I soon found out this booming city was a secondary heaven to my home in Alberta. I also quickly found out my knowledge of any language that wasn't English, was poor; so very poor. Medicine Hat didn't really relate to Cologne on many fronts. There are no rivers to use for your daily commute or huge industrial buildings full of suit and tie executives. Cologne doesn't lack any of those two things and it really was the first thing I noticed. My first day in the Express lockerroom was an eye-opener because it had just been built two months earlier and the new franchise didn't even have it's feet wet. Being named the first official draftee on entry draft day was an honour but also a huge responsibility. I was basically standing at a gate and told I was the only one in...for awhile until we can fill the courtyard. That draft came and went and I was on board from the start to the finish; I even shook future teammates hands on their way to the podium. Reggie Dunlop and I clicked like white and rice because of his connections to friends of mine back home. The experience was nothing like I've had before and to this day I still have never seen that much excitement on one draft room table. Cologne gave me a lifeline that I may never have had the chance to latch onto if I wasn't given the chance to shine on a brand new professional franchise. Cologne gave me my wife, my two kids and six and half years of a rollercoaster ride from the most brand new theme park you can think of. "Cologne also gave me a lot of heartache as well." Every off-season I would travel the continent with my family and attempt to cross things off my bucket list as well as theirs. When it was just April and I in our semi-rundown flat in Cologne, we learned that we'd have the ultimate honour that two individuals could have; we were going to be parents. A lot of emotions come towards you when you learn something like that. The first of which is how you will be able to fit another living being into your life. Loving that new addition would be no issue, but the burden of responsibility has crashed so many successful live sin the path; I didn't want that to be a thing with me. Six months after the big news we got even bigger news. This time the news hit home in more ways than one, somewhere I had yet to truly be ever since being drafted. Our doctor told us that our baby wasn't going to make it. I was crushed, but more so for my wife as no mother wants that to ever be a result, much less even an option. Our mindsets were that this family was going to grow to three and we needed to be ready for that. Just like that, that realization was gone. It crushed us both, it affected my mood, my play on the ice and as well as my entire family back in Alberta. I quickly had a turnaround through a kind thought. When I got into Cologne my mind was ready for every experience thrown my way and every single one had grown me to be a better person. This incident was just another bump in the road of experiencing what is thrown at me. Adoption papers on my desk within two months, something we had been open to even before we found out the horrible news. Shortly after I found out I would be on the move to Riga though. Another one of life's mysteries that gets thrown at me to complicate my special plan. I would finish my career in Riga two seasons later and announce my retirement. One of the best feelings in the world is coming back to Cologne to see my #19 being hung from the rafters; the first jersey placed up there. I like to think my unborn child's floating up there next to it. Travelling to two cities my entire career wasn't the plan nether did my plan include a stillbirth, adoption or no countryside farmers waving as I drove down the road to work; but sometimes you learn your plan takes a different spin.

I think to make this fair across the board Stockholm give sup their first round pick right now, because in a sense they could've named him GM many weeks ago.

You'd think, but for some reason that mindset got thrown out the window.

Oh I understand the rule. My point was that until he is listed as the Full GM, his player remains as a draftee. If that point of him becoming GM is at the end of this season than Stockholm should then have to use their pick to draft him because it happened closer to the draft. So in a sense it does make a huge difference. Not sure why he isn't named full GM now, but because he isn't they should have to forfeit a pick to acquire him.

Well until he is named full-time GM, his player should still be listed a draftee. If not, than there is no "Co" title to his name. Only one player can be attached the franchise as a GM player at a given time (regardless of VHL or VHLM rights)

Wouldn't make sense then, tis the exact same situation here because Jack's player would go to Stockholm and they should have to forfeit a 7th overall area pick. Blue team made up that thing last time, so should be in effect.

I was beginning to think I wasn't even on the roster. GG Legion!

HEL SEA CAL STK

4-2 STK

Yes but as I mentioned that rarely, rarely happens here. You've seen that yes, not here. As people who have been here a long time, were telling you it would just be a wasted thread.
