  1. Could this be the future rivalry when it comes to the North American conference? For quite sometime now, Quebec and Toronoto have safely ruled over the conference, but with multiple aging players, limited assets and two young teams looking to push through the playoff/contending barrier, could this all change? If things swapped and we seen Calgary and Seattle begin to go neck and neck with it, what could we expect? When GM Campbell of the Bears was asked this question, this was his response.. I expect a blood bath. Both teams have good GM's. I can't overly evaluate myself, but I like to think I do an okay job. Wranglers GM has a plan and is executing is efficiently right now and that just means if both teams can stay on track, they're gonna be some crazy games and hopefully series. Both teams have great assets and the right pieces to make the swap in the conference and I think it's only a matter of time to see what's going to happen. Either way, I hope the swap happens and we create a few fun seasons for both squads.
  2. Anyone got a link? reddit fuckin sucks

      it's the worst draft of all time

  6. I'd like to apply. Previously before, I had come forward with numerous sites which had large member amounts on them. I think I'd have a lot of unique, alternative ideas to offer which could potentially bring in some new members. We (myself, Draper and possibly Eagles?) had spoken about this before, however, guarantee pay, position or job responsibility was not put in place. With now more structure, I think it will be successful. I'd like to brainstorm and bring my ideas to the table and bring a bigger, brighter future towards the VHL.
  7. Sven Wolf- SEA +3
  8. Hey bud, that's your ship to steer now.
  9. BUT, his scoring his 99 PA 90 +. I'm sure it's just an odd slump. Maybe tougher teams the last 10+ or so? Dunno.
  10. This is about correct. Partially why last time I looked I had like 2 goals, 18 assist in 40 some odd games. I was always told to have a nice little gap between the 2 if you wanted to be either or. If your passing is higher than scoring, dont expect to score as much imo. Your player will have the tendency in the sim to pass rather than say, shoot
  11. #DAVS I guess. @Draper

  13. The Wolf. When one hears the word Wolf, they think about the animal that roams the shadows of the forest alone. You also think about one of the biggest, meanest and dominant predators in his habitat. For Sven Wolf, you would expect the same, except his habitat isn't the forest - it's the ice. Scouting reports held him high in the rankings and fans throughout Sweden claimed he had traits similar to Forsberg and numerous other Swedish greats who have once laced them up representing their nation. However, despite the hard and incredible amount of dedication he has put into training and his rapid progression when it comes to developing as a player, he has yet to find his stride in the VHL. Being a play maker this is maybe slightly understandable, especially for a rookie, but for a player with his type of potential we can't help but feel a bit disappointed. While most rookies take a bit to take off and generally have an additional year in juniors, Wolf took it upon himself to skip the stepping stone and hop right into the big leagues to attempt to fill some large voids with a potential minor presence. Wolf has notched only 2 goals in 41 games, but remember, he is a play maker and currently is focusing on his passing game. While his goals are slightly dull, his assist total is double digits and amounts to 18 for 20 points on the season. While this is nothing to overly kick a fuss up about being a first year player and losing out on an additional junior season, as stated prior it's simply not what we expected from him. Wolf sets up a Podarok goal early in the 2nd period. Prior to the start of Season 50, it was fairly well known where Wolf was going, what the plan was for him and what his role on the Seattle Bears would be. When it came to expectation, it could honestly be thrown up in the air as predictions from media outlets were all over the place. Essentially, the range for this point of the season was from 34 points and 48 points. Obviously, coming up fairly short. When GM Campbell of the Seattle Bears was approached about his young stars performance, this is what he had to say. We're not overly concerned currently with how Wolf has been playing. He's on the first line, among others, and is competing against some really elite players and teams. Secondly, he missed out on an extra junior season where most rookies likely had went through two and had more TPE prior to sporting a VHL teams jersey over their shoulders. He's done an okay job. Sure, maybe he hasn't been a huge presence on the point chart and sure, if he had maybe we'd be winning more games. Everyone of our fans and the Bears team knows the process we're going through. His time will come, just like the teams time will come. When it does, it's going to be fucking huge. And when the young player was interviewed after a team practice, his words were rather confident than disappointed. It's a learning curve for me, for sure. I know they're saying I have a ton of potential and they're not wrong. It's just a lot about learning, gaining experience and developing your skills and those 3 things are something I've been very focused and dedicated to progressing with. With my play, sure I am disappointed. It's nice to put up big points and obviously it's even nicer to help your team and the boys get those wins, but I just have to focus on training and becoming a stronger player and the rest will come. In the near future, you're going to see much stronger strides from me.
  14. The Seattle Bears have in recent years been a fairly consistent hot spot when it comes to free agents looking for a new home. From some minor talent to elite talent, the Bears have picked up quite a few names. For the upcoming off season, the Bears hope for the pattern to continue. As most are aware, during their elite FA frenzy, the Bears decided to change routes mid journey and go a different direction. Unlike then, the team is in better condition, have great young assets and are coming along nicely while also being in a weaker conference than last year surely helps. For starters, it all starts in our net. Holik is a great young goalie and he's going to be the cornerstone from what we're doing here. It's a delicate process as we dont want to waste his prime. Then we got Bogdan Podarok. I mean, guys been an offensive force for us this season. We hope a lot of players around the league would be excited to play with a player like that. With those 2, we have numerous other significant youth pieces - as well as a few trade talks in the mix. We really want to attract those FA's, speed up the process and hoist a cup.
  15. Id love for you to elaborate on this as I cant seem to find 5 franchise players at this moment. Let's hear reasonings on each prospects. Im not doubting any prospect and this isn't Seattle slamming spects or being unintetested. Simply, a conversation opener and Im intrigued to see your answer. Again, franchise is a proven player imo. Streetlight, Kendrick, Draper etc. Previous history of inactivity, leaving or current semi-acitivity imo disqualifies them. Skye is #1 likely, yes. Deservingly so. Also, as always, good write up @Kendrick
  16. Lucky W. Got our asses handed to us. GG Riga.
  17. Points are over rated.
  18. Your team would still suck (even more) if we hadn't dealt our entire team to you. Let me finish this shit, then kiss my ass.
  19. Congrats for beating a team you should beat. Go on now. Run upstairs and tell your mom you won!
