    REBUILD, NATION.

     

    **All Legion members and others if you choose, if you need questions for Press Conferences for more TPE, then you can answer the ones I post in here.**

     

    • What is your take on the new expansion Halifax team in the VHLM? Do you like the location?
    • If not Halifax, where would you have located them?
    • McKnight to TOR, what was DollarAndADream thinking?
    • Will Bo Horvat be the next captain of the Vancouver Canucks?
    • What kind of season do you expect superstar prospect Elias Pettersson to have with the Canucks in the NHL?
    • Back to the VHL, who is your unsung hero depth player? Someone underappreciated that doesn't put up a ton of points.

     

     

    1. I am not the biggest fan of Halifax, nor the name. But, I think they'll be able to handle okay as a franchise for at least a few seasons before people get tired of the 21sts.

    2. I would've thrown them somewhere that doesn't have a team yet but deserves one. Give my boys in Atlanta a team, they deserve it for sure.

    3. What were you thinking? Unless we are winning a cup this season, you crazy for this one. Old aging son of a gun for a 1st. Crazy.

    4. BoOOooOoOo Horvat will probably be the next captain, assuming Pettersson doesn't wild out in the next season or two. That void won't be filled for that time though since the Sedin's retirement.

    5. Guy's going to be money, no doubt. He'll pot a good portion of points up, and excel on what will be a mediocre bottom feeding team next year.

    6. Still gotta go with The Charm. He isn't the best player on Davos - but he is still putting incredibly good points. Sure, maybe the question says "doesn't put up a ton of points" but the guy is still lower on the TPE bracket than the rest of the team, so I would definitely have to say him.

    Welfare / Pension (August 13th - August 19th)

    in Welfare & Pension

    Posted

    Post in this thread to claim welfare/pension for this week.

    If you are claiming welfare/pension, you cannot claim any 6 TPE Point Tasks for this week (Media Spot/Graphic/Podcast) or League jobs paying 6+ TPE.

     

    VHL Welfare Plan - Members with fewer than two 400+ TPE players may claim 4 TPE

    VHL Pension Plan - Members who have created two or more 400+ TPE players may claim 5 TPE

    VHL Affiliate Plan - Members who post a Point Task this week, in either the EFL or SBA, may link to that Point Task to claim 6 TPE


    Once you reach 400 TPE with your current player, if that is your second player to reach 400 TPE, you are allowed to claim the pension plan. So instead of only taking in account previous players it also accounts for your current one.

     

    Example: 

    Green has had Remy LeBeau (TPE: 1301) in the past. Thomas O'Malley, his second player, is now past 400 TPE, he is eligible for the VHL Pension Plan.

    Toronto Man Yells At Camera

    in VHL.com Articles

    Hey boys, it’s me. Your local Toronto news caster here to tell you WHY Toronto is going to be the best bottomfeeder in the league next year.

     

                We got players. Boy we got players. We got that Ironside/Malenko lineup, two captain materials right here. Absolute legends. With a pairing like this, with Ironside’s defensive prowess, and Malenko’s deadly offensive ability. There is no doubt that they will be carrying that team to the fourth last place in the VHL, only to win the 1st overall pick to select an even better player for their future cup wins.

     

                We might be destined to lose, but we are still destined to be one of the best teams in the league. Once Calgary falls down into a rebuild, and New York already falling into one – there’s only one or two more teams we need to fall into one of those rebuilding stages. All I can say is that once Carison becomes a bonafide starter, and the Ironside/Malenko duo build up to become even better – Toronto will soon be one of the best teams in the league. Hell, maybe we’ll win some awards along the way.

    Make the VHLM Awards Great Again [1/2]

                When it comes down to it, in the VHLM – it isn’t extravagant or amazing in any sense of the word. I mean, Victory Hockey League…MINORS? This is where all the kids go, where the garbage below 200 TPE personas go, and above all – this is where people go to develop their game to extreme heights. I know me, Robert Malenko went back on the idea that I was going to dominate the league, and honestly – I did. Me and Jesper Stromberg were one of the most dynamic defensive duos to ever christen the VHLM in recent history.

     

                But we were robbed as a duo. Thrown to the pits on a team that could not perform for itself. With my boy Tim gone, the updater no longer updating, and me – the only saving grace on a team with one other good player in Revchenko – it looked grim. But, I still managed to pot 81 points for the season on a team that scored 183 goals. I was 44% of my team’s production, an incredible amount in the grand scheme of it all – and that brings me to the point of the first paragraph. This is the minors, right? But we could still have a legitimate award committee for the VHLM. As it stands, the way voting is handled in this minor league, is that GMs vote on who should win the awards. The bias behind that is absolutely ridiculous, as you have GM/players voting for themselves to win, despite not being any better as a player.

     

                Let’s look at the HIGHWAY ROBBERY of Malenko’s Top Defenseman Award that should be retrospectively added to his collection.

     

                Jacob Smith, a player on the Oslo Storm, a team that by the end of the season had 9 100+ TPE players, Jacob scored 89 points. The Oslo Storm had 271 goals by the end of the season, meaning he accounted for 32% of his team’s production. He had less blocked shots than Malenko by 16, as well as a tremendously high amount of PIM in comparison, 106 to Malenko’s 60. The only thing Jacob Smith had going for himself that could have been considered better than Malenko is that he threw 190 hits compared to Malenko’s 149. Jacob Smith is also the GM of the Las Vegas Aces, a team that I had to suffer on for a full season – and as a GM of that team, he was able to vote for his own player to win the award.

     

                Jacob Smith had 3 votes, while Alvaro Jokinen had 2. Jokinen was on a team that had a whopping 12 100+ TPE players (that still lost in the finals (blame higgins)) and he had scored 95 points on a team that finished with 325 goals for, meaning he was involved in only 30% of the team’s production. Just off of the points alone, it’s evident that Malenko should have already been considered higher than both players for the reason that he had 44% of the goals for his team. But not only that, it is also the fact that he was on a team so poor and so treacherous that they only had 3 100+ TPE players the entire season. The GM was never around, and the players never developed, leaving Malenko and Stromberg with the sole duty of scoring all of the goals.

     

                With all this hand in hand, there needs to be a development in the VHLM to legitimize itself a bit better. It’s the entry-level position for these newcomers visiting the website for the first time. These people develop players for certain purposes. To win, to enjoy a hobby, or to have something to do that passes the time. I wanted to win an award this year for Top Defenseman in the VHLM, and because I wasn’t inflated on a ridiculous team for more points, I don’t get that award despite being hands down the best backbone of any team. There is an award committee for the VHL already, and I believe there needs to be one instated for the VHLM immediately.

     

                I am willing to be part of that committee, because believe me. There needs to be a certain degree of spelunking involved in picking the best players in these seasons. Even in the VHL this year there were a lot of discrepancies in the selection of the award winners. Best Two Way and Most Improved should have absolutely went to Beaviss, the classic Quebec Terrorist ring leader team owner. But I just think there needs to be a level of inside thinking to these selections. Having rookie GMs that just started out in the league voting their own player to win is not in any way fair or reasonable. It breaks the balance of what the simulation really is, and sure – sometimes there are different situations, or different circumstances for these players to win or lose in. But this needs to be balanced out a bit better than it currently is.

     

                Legitimize the VHLM, make it an important development tool. I know that there are a lot of players on this site that absolutely dread it, and believe it is a worthless part of the site. But at the same time, new players like me stay in it for the reason to win, or to acquire the achievement tracker to benefit from more TPE. I lose out on TPE because of this poor voting mechanism, and I don’t think that’s fair at all.

     

                So, from the bottom of my heart, please accept my rant as a form of introducing this committee into the VHLM. No longer do the GMs vote and cause collusion in the bottom league. Let’s create a better world. A world where we all can have the BEST player win the award, and a world where Robert Malenko WINS the best defenseman award in the VHLM for the 61st season of the VHLM.

     

                Also, season 62. Yall better watch out for that ironside/malenko pairing. We gonna turn some heads lemme tell ya right now.

    • Yukon was by far the best team in the VHLM. Wtf was Oslo on when they beat them in 5 games?
    • What player do you expect to have a breakout season in S62?
    • What rookie do you expect to have the biggest impact in S62?
    • Who won the S62 VHL Entry Draft?
    • Who do you think will have an amazing season in the VHLM in S62?
    • What player drafted in the S62 VHL Entry Draft were you surprised to get picked where they did?

     

    @Reives@Donno100@MrMaxx44@cheidebrecht@evrydayimbyfuglien

    @bukss_a@Shaka@Jepox@Molholt@124715@iRockstar@troy@pennypenny@Barracuda@Broalie34@10293lolo 2nd

    1. Oslo was on some bad ass bathsalts, and Higgins rigged it all. If only Yukon had Malenko they would've won.

    2. Let's be real. Ironside will have a goodie this year since he will be beside a better team this year.

    3. LETS BE REAL. THIS MALENKO GUY, CRAZY MAN, NO DOUBT HE'S GONNA CREATE A BIG IMPACT FOR THAT D BOIS.

    4. Quebec did with their mass selection of forwards, but they also will have to be tradin quite a few of those fellas come contract years. Beaviss fucked up :(

    5. Tfong's player should dominate down there since he'll be at 175 by the time he rolls into the VHLM, so I will say him.

    6. Carison was picked pretty early I must admit, but it filled a positional need so I guess it wasn't too big of a surprise. Otherwise, I think everybody else went at a reasonably fair spot.
