Just finished it. It is a 10/10 from me as well. The realistic point of view from both sides of the spectrum. Jake Gyllenhall does it again and I'm surprised its not directed by David Fincher considering Jake plays a cop out to find a missing person much like Zodiac. I recommend watching in one sitting despite it's length. Jackman plays his role perfectly and I feel as though Terrance Howard could be any other actor and his role would stay the same (he barely does much). If you like Cold Case or Criminal Minds this is right up your alley.

If it's MVP, it's Slaughter by far. Because essentially those three cancel each other out.

XXX. I understand the voting for O'Malley but XXX was 7 points behind but led every other category.

Jamie, that's who!

If anyone is looking to replace their VHL Fan article, something like this works. Just post it on here and we'll get it up on the page to create buzz. It could be a player card style, rumour picture or just a cool design.

A bit mixed up when posted I think. Koenig was traded and so was I to a wasteland haha

As if I was on Stockholm.

Yes instead of rewarding the top goaltender the voters decided on the second best option.

No they get him for free because he recreated. GM's don't spend a pick on their own player unless you are in S31.

Getting a GM that you have to spend a pick on is much different than getting him for free.

But they trade off Stropko and get a pick. I think the discussion/argument lies in the fact that Seattle technically gives away a 3rd but gains a franchise pick that could be a lottery level player. In addition to that they can trade an asset away for a pick as well. That asset they are trading could be a 2-3 year rental with a good amount of TPE. That's where the issue lies. Seattle gains basically a free asset (because they had no picks) and also gets to gain another asset in the future. So realistically they would be at +2. Seattle gets this done however if you think about it Cologne had to select the GM when they first started. Or Quebec had to give up a first round pick to get their impending FA GM in Koradek. Fong, just quit it. That discussion isn't worth it because it's a terrible idea.

No I was clear after reading eaglesfans post.

I'm still confused. What's going on?

He's not really assuming them of anything, if you consider it to be it's not negative. It seems he is strictly asking who on the VHLM Mag is not on Stockholm. Maybe I'm missing something.

After realizing that Seattle has no picks and thus are giving up nothing to acquire a free player who could be a draft selection yes. I will revert you back to S31 with Cologne.

But now they trade him off and get a pick. Thus they gave up nothing to get their GM with a 3rd because they had shit. That is a poor transition now that I see what is going on.

Against one of the best goalies still in the sim. This is why you don't talk up a team.

Low scoring games

That doesn't matter, he is still one of your players and counts when you bring up members tenures and titles.

Hello everyone! Welcome back to another edition of the Victory Hockey League Draft Rankings and Analysis. This week we inch closer to the VHL Entry Draft as the Seattle Bears pulled off an upside of the Cologne Express in the VHL Finals. The draft is nearing a week away which allows us the time to do the highly anticipated mock draft that we do each year. The mock draft is a way to somewhat see where each prospect fits with which team could be drafting there. Now this year we decided to do a different approach and not really tell you what team is at each position. We went ahead and told you where each drafting should go based on their projections from this past season and overall production. However, before we get down to that we have to give you your weekly "scoop". First and foremost, we have another prospect joining our rankings. Lenny Face is a late edition to the rankings because of a VHL rights situation that now free's up his draft eligibility. Face is a goaltender but he has done little so far and during the season to see him pass Corey Marino for top goaltender in this draft. This week saw some of usual suspects show up and use their training time effectively. Edwin Reencarnacion continued his torrid pace on the top of the charts. Marcel Faux climbed to the second position of the draft rankings and Simon Valmount enters top three territory. Kekko Hyvarinen continued to be quiet, which may hurt his draft stock as its been several weeks since we've seen improvement. Le'Sean Coutzen was our biggest gainer this week but he didn't pass anyone in front of him on the charts. Giovanni Reuel moved into a solid seventh position where he looks to overtake some of the lottery hopefuls. Archie Wagner continues to impress from the back and now finds himself as a first round possibility. Now without any more delays, here is the 44th VHL Entry Draft Rankings mock draft. *As part of the VHL's "City Showcase" program, the draft will be taken place in Kansas City, Missouri. Well we know for sure New York won't be passing on Edwin Reencarnacion now. Edwin has been the first overall pick ever since he declared so it's not going to be a surprise when he is selected here. A big bruising forward with tons of potential on top of what he has shown us so far. His soft hands and big frame make him hard to stop when he explodes towards the net. Scouts NHL Comparions: Rick Nash Marcel Faux doesn't look as sexy of a pick as Edwin, but let's not underrate that too much. Marcel Faux will be a first line winger in this league and at the number two spot he is hard to pass up. His quick skating ability and hockey knowledge allow for him to create open passing lanes to teammates. Scouts like his quick reactions and ability to adapt to the situations that present themselves in game. Scouts NHL Comparison: Jonathan Huberdeau Kekko's recent weeks have somewhat worried scouts because of the inconsistencies that he brings. He is the highest rated defensemen in this draft but his progression has taken a hit. If he can remain positive and show up to practice each week and apply that in game, he will be a can't miss player at number three. We could see him drafted at the second position but it all depends on his will to show up. Scouts NHL Comparison: Sami Vatanen Simon Valmount is this year's version of Don Draper and Ethan Osborne. The young forward has improved every week since he started and the scouts and General Managers have taken note. He will be the highest selected first generation player in this draft and for good reason. His slick skating and great scoring touch allows him to find angles on goaltenders that would not be there normally. Scouts NHL Comparison: Bryan Little Le'Sean Coutzen is not the best of the rest, he is still pretty good. This young centreman has as much skill as the three previous draftees but his position is not one terribly of need by a ton of clubs. That being said his great two-way game and nose for the corners is what sets him apart from some of his peers. It's not uncommon to see a scar on his face or a few dentistry bills on his kitchen counter. Scouts NHL Comparison: Sean Couturier Maxime Perron is the second punch to the Brampton center position behind the aforementioned Le'Sean Coutzen. He does slip in talent just a bit and for that it slides him out of the top five. His recent weeks have shown us a bit of something we didn't want to see, inconsistency. Perron does know how to forecheck though and that allows him the ability to get in and have better scoring chances. Perron could slip down the list but it is unlikely by anymore than a couple selections. Scouts NHL Comparison: Nick Bonino Giovanni Reuel is the second first-generation talent on this list and he also excites the scouts more than the news of Pepsi bringing back their 70's products. Reuel is second highest right winger in this draft and if a team is looking for position, they will find Reuel as a highly touted prospect. His great awareness and ability to get in the right scoring positions allow him to shine through the competition. Scouts NHL Comparison: Matt Read Davidson is a bright player at the end of the first round, which is perfect for those teams who made strong playoff runs. Davidson has size and skill but the week to week progression needs to be at a higher pace for him to be a serious threat in next years professional level. He has shown to be a great leader on his team in Bratislava and that could help him gain a roster spot in the future. Scouts NHL Comparison: Martin Hanzal The first real surprise or shocker may come to people as bit of reach if you base the selections on practice hours alone. However, Archie Wagner has been one of the bright spots that climbed from the very bottom on the draft rankings. He is a mobile defenseman for a big guy with a long reach and one that could scare forwards if he reaches his potential. Scouts NHL Comparison: Kurt Sauer R Truth has some potential but it's whether or not a team can influence him enough to get away from the enforcer role. In the VHL, the enforcer role is essentially useless and fighting numbers have gone down in comparison to the NHL or even the VHLM. R Truth could turn into a good depth player with some work in other areas of his game. Scouts NHL Comparison: John Scott

Well considering you have to count Jones, Mikaelsson and Fenzing, yes he has won more.

Brovy, intelligent GM'ing since....never.

You get a used 2006 Kia Sonata from Darrell's Used Car Emporium down on 6th and Hartley.

Oh great another Nilstrom.

That's a huge cop out. You can't try and chirp guys and then say "Who cares?" when they answer your chirps. Just looks bad on your team now.
