Banackock

Fuck you, Vegas. Forsberg's the shit.

Mattias Forsberg entered the VHLM in a big surprise. With the announcement that fellow Swedish center would be retiring, Banackock's agency went on the prowl to find a new player to represent the agency who has seen some fairly good success with players. From Blake Campbell winning junior championships, the Shaw and a VHL championship, to Sven Wolf showing true loyalty to the Bears organizations and hopefully ending his career with a cup in Stockholm. Enter Mattias Forsberg and yes, there are relations to Peter Forsberg. Selected by the Oslo Storm in the previous draft, it may not be where he overly wants to be, but it's where he's playing. The buzz is all about Las Vegas an of course, everyone wants to do good. Though, he isn't overly unhappy to be in Oslo either. Through his first 2 games, he's netted one goal, 14 shots and is rocking a 67.57% in the face off dot. "Feels good to get the season underway. Good chance it's going to be a difficult year for us so it will be interesting to see what management does. In the meantime, I'm going to focus on the offensive side of my game.

Welcome back! Shouldn't need any help but if you do, ask @Frank

You were never up in the pros. I posted this simply to get rid of you off the salary cap. You were never on Seattle. @eaglesfan036 fuck off thanks

@Green eyyy

Was counting against my cap for some reason. Get rid of him tbh. @Street x Lite @BobertZ

Very understanding and I can promise you we'll take a look at a bunch of stuff this season. In the meantime, I'm unsure if there's one already but if not, we'll throw up a discussion in the VHLM GM forum for the time being to hear thoughts and suggestions. Just be the guy to blow Las Vegas and Robbie's ego out of the water.

I intend for my "tender" as VHLM commissioner to not be the length of a "bushito - VHL stay". Hopefully I can chug through this position as long as possible. Stability and a lack of turnover would be great for the league. Unfortunate that the right amount of planning had not taken place prior to retracting two teams - or they at least hadn't planned for this. I, among others, are simply attempting to smooth over the ride and will be look at ways to improve and better the VHLM for the future. Thank you for the suggestions and opinions.

Yep. didn't put the rule into place to begin with. I literally was hired right during retraction, remember? Frank and I will look at this all during this season. Thanks for your suggestions.

Im aware of the rules. Was not a decision made "just" by me. Others were involved - I made the post. For next season, something else may take the current rules place. Potentially 1 inactive and all actives placed in draft or waivers.

Why are you asking? Has it not been done this way forever? Frank and I didnt bring it in. An active FA helps and earns TPE. An inactive is usually 50-100 tpe. Im sure it's something Frank and I will look at with the retraction. In my opinion, it's saying 1 active, 1 inactive or 1 inactive and all actives will be place into the draft for future seasons.

Yeah. For RETRACTION, I don't think a huge amount of thought was put into it other than "hey, this will help the league". I'm sure they looked at possible outcomes, but maybe not all of them. A huge deal was made about Robbie relocating a team (which imo, was a good move) and they wanted to hold off until next season (Frank and I pushed it), but retention was made so quickly (and poor Bratislava). I think @Frank and I are always open to suggestions. IMO, the VHLM is important and vital to the league. We can't get rid of the VHL and have 80 TPE rookies playing against 700 tpe players. Everyone (new and vet) needs somewhere to start and grow. I want to make the VHLM as good as the VHL, or close to it. We should all care about it - enjoy our time etc. I get it's not as huge, but we shouldn't blow it off and focus simply on VHL. If you ever have suggestions (or anyone else), let us know. As for this situation, we'll touch up on it, but inactive FA signings I can promise you will stay at 1. As for active, even with the teams decreasing from 7 to 5, I'd say it'll remain the same moving forward.

Absolutely. My bad! Apologies. We made a top 10 list for "pests" so I always taken tone from those people in the tones they generally give off, lol.

Yes, thanks. (Social/Work situations you can listen for tone. Words you cannot).
