So I have been in SHL for about a season now, and though there is definitely a rift/rivalry between the two player sims, i believe both leagues can learn from one another and each have some unique, interesting ideas.
One of these ideas that I would like to bring to light is how they run the Olympics.
I personally like this idea of having a 3 man-management. The two heads determining who makes the roster and who doesn't, and then you have the coach who works in conjunction with the federation heads to make the lines.
Rosters are pretty self-explanatory.
I am unsure of how Dual Nationalities work in VHL, but I think this might be an interesting way of doing things. I remember that we have had a ton of players in USA and Canada, and therefore had to slump other countries into basically Team Europe and Team Asia, which i personally did not like. Having a dual nationalities type thing could be fun and mean that we could actually have a Russian team and Swedish team as players would transfer from the overcrowded USA and Canada team.
Now I understand SHL has a ton of players so they can have a lot more teams, but I still think we, VHL, could have an adaption of this if we wanted to. Its an idea/suggestion. Would love to hear feedback
