1. NHL offseason has begun!!!! What moves you liking so far if you pay attention to it at all. If you don't know much about the NHL what do you hope your team in any sport accomplishes this year in general? Just hope Boston can retain Swayman and Fredric for cheap so that we don't have a lose a roster player 2. Do we miss the Key Tracker? I've been busy and would love to retroactively go back and hand them out if people want it but I'll gauge interest here. The what? 3. What team if any are we dreading meeting in the postseason? Halifax, because they're the best VHLM team to exist 4. Do we want more emojis of my cat in the discord? Nah we good 5. We are doing well with the roster we have, but should we be considering trading for assets to bolster for the playoffs? Well seeing as playoffs have started, I think we did a good job adding key players and recreates to help for a deep run 6. Former cup winner and 2x Reaper Jeffery Blake is OTB, do we trade for the franchise legend and let him ride the pine to his second ship, or is that a waste of time? Nope, one might say that riding the pine as a backup tendy is a waste of time

No shot I'll go that low

Another STHS classic

David Slezak Brno, Czechia Once upon a time in the small town of Brno, Czechia, there lived a young boy named David. David had a passion for ice hockey that burned fiercely within him. Every day after school, he would rush to the local ice rink to practice his skills. He idolized the legendary Czech goaltender, Dominik Hasek, and dreamt of following in his footsteps. David wanted to be a goalie from a very young age, as he's always been up for a challenge and loves being the one to save his team from trouble. Teammates often described him as "extra goalie" because of how crazy he was. He models his game after Devon Levi, who stays upright for most shots and loves high danger chances. When asked early on in his career what his favorite part of goalie was, he said "the shootout." As David grew older, his talent as a goalie became undeniable. His lightning-fast reflexes and unwavering determination caught the attention of scouts from across Europe. One fateful day, an unexpected opportunity came knocking at his door. A scout from North America, representing a junior ice hockey team, had heard about David and traveled all the way to Brno to watch him play. Impressed by David's performance, the scout approached him after the game. "You have immense potential," the scout said. "I believe you have what it takes to play in North America, to compete against the best in the world. Are you willing to take on the challenge?" David's heart swelled with excitement and nerves. He knew this was the opportunity he had been waiting for his entire life. Without hesitation, he nodded and accepted the scout's offer. He was going to pursue his dreams on the other side of the world. With the support of his family and the local hockey community, David embarked on a new chapter of his life. He bid farewell to his beloved Brno and flew across the Atlantic to a small town in Nebraska where his new team, the Lancers, awaited. Upon his arrival, David was greeted by a group of enthusiastic teammates and a passionate coach who saw great potential in him. They knew David would need time to adjust to the faster-paced North American game and the different style of play. The coach assigned him a mentor, an experienced Canadian goalie named Ryan, who would help him navigate the challenges of the new environment. Days turned into weeks, and weeks into months as David worked tirelessly to improve his skills. He faced numerous obstacles, battled homesickness, and struggled with the language barrier. But he never lost sight of his ultimate goal—to become a standout goalie and represent his homeland on the world stage. With each passing game, David grew more confident, earning the respect and admiration of his teammates. His acrobatic saves and unwavering determination inspired everyone around him. Slowly but surely, his name began to circulate among college scouts and professional teams. One fateful night, a scout from a VHLM scout team attended a Lancers game, drawn by rumors of a remarkable Czech goalie. David put on a show, displaying dominance and ability to give his team a chance to win. The scout was captivated by David's performance and knew he had discovered a hidden gem. Shortly after the game, the scout approached David with an offer—a chance to attend a VHLM development camp, where he would have an opportunity to prove himself against the best young players in North America. David couldn't believe his ears. It was the moment he had dreamed of all his life. With renewed determination, David continued to push himself to the limit. He trained rigorously, honing his skills, and perfecting his craft. The day of the development camp arrived, and David stood tall, ready to seize his moment. Against all odds, David impressed the Philadelphia coaches and scouts with his incredible athleticism, mental toughness, and unwavering dedication. They saw in him the potential to become a star in the world's most prestigious junior leagues. And so, a few months later, David signed his first professional contract with a VHLM team. News of the young Czech goalie's success spread like wildfire back in Brno, where his family and friends celebrated his remarkable journey. Over the next few days, David received hundreds of calls and texts congratulating him on his accomplishment, but everyone knew he had his sights set on something bigger: The VHL. David had come a long way—from the small town of Brno, Czechia, to the grand arenas of North America. He proved that with passion, hard work, and the willingness to take risks, dreams can become a reality. And as he prepares to take the ice for his VHLM debut, David can't help but feel an immense sense of pride, knowing that he has become an inspiration to countless aspiring young hockey players back home and around the world.

hell yes.

I vote we move Philly

I love reading these, however the Halifax disrespect is real. We won 8 of 9 last week, climbed into 2nd place, and we still don't end up on the hot list and we are projected to slip back to 4th place

I think with a strict set of rules, sure it could work. But with the community we have now, no way

Lived in Boston as a kid, live in Colorado now as an adult. You have my immediate vote

I hate this idea. Removes the need for a VHLM GM because sooner or later, the VHL GMs are going to micromanage the farm team. Let's say Halifax is the farm team for Seattle. Seattle's GM wants a certain player's development to to be exceptional, so he demands the Halifax GM gives him top minutes and influences the player's build. Or how about when Seattle's GM decides they're in win now mode, and sells the farm for an elite player. What is the Halifax GM supposed to do now? Just sit on zero draft picks and a barren team for seasons? Don't even get me started on this shit if VHL GMs can fire/hire VHLM GMs. The boys clubs that will be made.......

"Get the fuck over it" How bout now

id get rid of the E. do i get my tpe now?

......did we just beat philly?

Welcome aboard @AColdCanadian! I'll be DMing you shortly with our discord link once the trade is approved!

Still can't believe the unofficial offers

I am living, breathing proof that reddit ads work. I joined the site when I saw a post on r/bostonbruins by @Spade18 back in 2018

Like @Gustav said, the Gen Z range could probably be broken down a step further, there's a giant difference between 15 and 25. I'm 22 myself, but I didn't have the same childhood some who is say 17 had, just because of the amount of booming industries like tech over the last 20 years. I didn't get my first phone till I was probably 12, and even then I had a little flip phone with and old style texting layout. Compare that to someone who's had internet access from the age of 7 and you have two very different upbringings. Probably why I consume most of my media in print, usually in blogs like reddit or journals, as opposed to A&V channels like I'm assuming a majority of Gen Z put (I'd also be interested to see what the breakdown is, if the teen demographic is one of the highest on the site)
