Please TRUST me when I say that I was not the only one.

Not arguing with you, lol. Simply put, him and I had a simple misunderstanding that looked like a really shitty move on his behalf (a few people had said it to me, not just me saying it. Wasn't just me thinking he picked the guy over me on purpose. ). You were just being a dick but I dont care.
-
How is "Lol I like D3vil" defending him? NOW you are but only because I called you out, lol.
-
Did I say I had? Commissioner is supposed to have, no? Pretty sure it's in the job description to be professional and classy, especially towards juniors and new members if your a junior GM? You'd think that would be important to a league (up bringing of new members properly). I'm not a GM here or anything here so what's your point? I'm a member that's been waiting from my point of view I was overlooked big time and he made a terrible move as GM. And you weren't defending him? LMAO In what way is "Lol I like D3vil" defending him?
-
CRAZY. VHL Commissioners actually made me respect SHL commissioner EVEN more.
-
You're move was stupid from my point of view. It looked like you weren't doing your job, overlooking a better player on quick picking. If that's your story and it's true, thanks for the consideration as I do want a starting role. I just put in a ton of work yesterday and to be overlooked like that pissed me off as I've been waiting quite awhile with no bites or nibbles and I knew goalies were plentiful! I don't know the league well enough to know who does and doesn't need a goalie so.
-
Such an amazing GM, yup. Every PT done possible Vs 1 PT ... Whatever, fuck off VHL. Lost a good, active member (almost 1,000 TPE on SHL, been there since S4, CoGM)
-
Why would I want to go to a team that clearly can't do his job right without having to be corrected by someone else? If you would have simply did your job you would have seen which was better. I've been sitting here for 2 days waiting and to be looked over like that pissed me off, so please understand.
-
Isn't Jim Moriaty also a goalie? You took a goalie who only had the Team training +10 over a guy who has every single PT done which includes Rookie Report and Bio ALL in less than one day..? Only way I recreate as a Dman is if I can carry EVERY single piece of TPE over with me, Rookie Report, Bio, and all others because I put a ton of work into my player yesterday and get overlooked by someone who did 1 minor pt so I'm gonna sit in here for a few more days and think to myself how SHL is so much better while I wait for a team. Hopefully a few more goalies come into the league and do less than me again so you can pick them first too. Whats VHL's system for becoming a GM? Seems easy.

I just donated $5 US so I guess I get a free week after I do my first 3 doubles

Blake Campbell's Scouting Report Blake Campbell makes a huge save during a CHL playoff game Blake Campbells Information Blake Campbell was born and raised in Denver, Colorado and is the cousin of the NHL's Brian Campbell and Brother to the AHL's Jack Campbell. When he was 4 years old he laced up his pair of skates and so began his journey. He instantly had hockey in his blood coming from a family who was extremely into hockey so he had no troubles finding passion for the game or support from his family or friends when he needed it. Although he started out as a Centermen when he was very young, he didn't enjoy the position all that much and had asked his parents for goalie equipment for his birthday. Money was no problem in the Campbell household and his birthday wish was granted with the top of the line Reebok goalie equipment. Due to the Campbell family being so huge into hockey, along with Blake's huge passion for the game, there wasn't a moment that either of the two boys didn't play hockey. During winter, or hockey season they called it, they'd spend their time playing, training and practicing with their teams with the odd practice season on their backyard rink. After hockey season ended, the boys always went to hockey school during the Summer as they and their parents believed that keeping them on top of their game and as sharp as possible is key to them becoming great goalies. "We started going to hockey camps, like real ones, probably when I was about 12. Jack had already been going for a few years but it was my first taste at it and I really loved it. We had Eddie Belfour come teach us one year at our Camp in Denver and it was an amazing experience with so much taken out of it. Being able to go to hockey camps when we couldn't play with our teams because the season was over was a huge reason we were able to make such gains in our progress. We were always playing, always training and always sharpening our skills. If you keep shining and rubbing a diamond long enough, it'd become so shiny and bright it'd probably blind you. That's exactly what we wanted to happen in all areas of our game" CHL: the Denver Stars Blake's hard work, determination and skill level got him noticed quickly by a local team in Denver, the Denver Stars. The Stars were apart of the Colorado Hockey League (CHL) and was the most elite league in the State. It didn't take too long for the leagues scouts to notice the local product and he was soon picked up 17th overall in the entry draft. During his rookie season with the Stars, he became a strong voice in the locker room and out, a role model for local fans and one of their best players. As of result of his hard work at a young age and consistent work at becoming better, Campbell earned himself rookie of the year nominations only to come up short for votes and placed 2nd. During his sophomore season with the team, you could see how strongly he continued to progress night after night. It was evident that Campbell knew no limits to how much he could improve on during a season and that his focus is always on bettering himself as a player. Campbell put the scouts doubts to rest as they were unsure on his consistency, however, he came into the season with a mission and it's safe to say mission complete. His numbers were stronger, he was better and the interest level just shot through the roof for him. Player Evaluation - The Pros and Cons The Pros 1. Effort/Determination - Although he is a new player to the league, he is already off to an extremely strong start. His effort and determination to bettering himself have been stellar thus far in his short and early career but if he finds consistency along with his effort, look out. 2. Hand Speed - Let's put this as simple as possible. DO NOT try to fool this kid on his glove side because chances are you're going to get robbed. His glove is like gold and has been his main focus so far. 3. Overall Potential - He has the potential to become a crazy good, active goalie as he's started out strong and his agent has fairly good reputation with developing young players into top end talent. He could bust or he could boom. Which ever one he does, expect him to do it hard. The Cons 1. Late start to league training - Blake Campbell supposedly got a little but of a later start compared to those he is competing against in the league for the label as top goalie. However, this shouldn't scare you away as this makes it all the more important for Campbell to work harder, which he should. 2. Rebound Control - Currently one of his biggest flaws in his game is his control for letting out those big, nasty rebounds and it could really hurt how teams look at him right now. Obviously an area of his game that he will focus largely on as time progresses. 3. Overall Potential - No, it's not a mistake and you are for sure reading it twice for a reason. Sometimes your best friend can also be your greatest enemy and that's pretty much the case here. Campbell doesn't really have a ceiling on what his skill can become. His potential is so great that the sky's the limit but he's also a slight risk. The real question is what will happen? Bust or boom? What to expect for Blake Campbell/Final Grades? It's a toss up on whether or not he booms or busts but if he booms you'll sure be happy you took him when you did. Currently he's on pace for being a very strong addition for a few teams throughout the league and wouldn't be a bad bet to gamble on if you can keep him interested. Future Potential Rating: 9.0 A

Blake Campbell Biography Blake Campbell's Childhood Blake Campbell was born and raised in Denver, Colorado and led the life that most people would around there. His family and him lived in the suburbs in a nice, towering brick house with large windows. The neighbourhood was safe and quiet and you could often find the streets filled with children playing street hockey on a Saturday night. Everywhere you looked there was snow, ice and more snow so pretty much everything you did in Denver had to do with ice and snow. The one large perk to this is that hockey season is longer and for the Campbell family that's amazing to know. Why is that you ask? Because the Campbell family is one big hockey family! We're talking never miss a Colorado Avalanche game since 1998 big. They live, breathe and sleep hockey. Although his entire family absolutely loves hockey, there's three people who have impacted him the most. Firstly, Blake's cousin Brian Campbell plays in the NHL and is fairly well known for being a consistent, strong offensive dman for his organization. He was also the cool uncle who sent the cool hockey presents at Christmas time. Next comes his father, who he has said was one of his best friends growing up and somebody he could always count on. The last person to have a large impact on Blake's role and progression in hockey is the person who has also had the biggest impact on young Blake's career and life. They call it eachother their brother because that's exactly what they are. Blakes brother Jack was born 4 years earlier than Blake and had actually moved with his family from Michigan to Denver before having Blake as a baby. Being 4 years older than him, Blake obviously looked up to his older brother a lot. When they both started playing hockey, their parents thought it would best best that they didn't play the same position so Jack got the goalie equipment for Christmas and Blake got the player equipment. It worked for a while as both gained a lot of skill in both their positions, but Blake wasn't having as much fun as his older brother Jack. He continued to play though because that's what his older brother would do and everything he learned was from his brother. However, after the season was done, Jack had a talk with Blake and encouraged him to do what he would like most. That year, Blake asked for goalie equipment for his birthday because he knew Christmas would be too late if he wanted to be a goalie now. His parents, grandparents and uncle Brian surprised him on his birthday with brand new, red and white, matching Reebok pads, glove, blocker and even a sweet new stick. Immediately, the boys went down stairs, Blake laced up his new pads and all the kids at the party made up two teams to play a couple games. Blake in goal at one end of the cement floored basement, his brother Jack on the other. Blake continued to work hard at learning how to make himself stronger, consistent and better. He'd stay up late on game nights studying video footage of some of the best VHL goalies to ever play the game. He knew he was a long ways a way but if he could learn to play like them he'd have no worries. The moment that hockey season ended and most kids were hanging up their skates, Blake and Jack were still lacing their up and Summer Hockey Schools. There wasn't a moment that these two weren't playing on hockey and focusing on getting better. From the moment they were born, they knew hockey. Their determination, effort and skill hadn't gone unnoticed and it didn't take long for professional league scouts to catch on to this goaltending duo. Just as they always did during their childhood, the boys once again had something in common. They we're both playing for the stars! Except Jack Campbell was picked up by the NHL's Dallas Stars and is now playing for Texas in the AHL. Blake on the other hand played for the Denver Stars and is now awaiting his future in hopes to one day make it big the VHL. The Denver Stars He was selected 17th Overall in the Colorado Hockey League (CHL) by the Denver Stars and had automatically begun to start making a name for himself for how hard he worked in practice and for how strong he was with the media. He became a leader in the locker room, a voice on and off the ice and a strong figure for the Denver Stars organization. Not only that, but he became one of the best goalies to ever play for them and he was doing it all as a rookie player. By the end of his first season in the CHL, he managed to post a record of 25-13-3 with 2.89 GAA and a save percentage of .902 which had him nominated for rookie of the year only to come up short in votes for 2nd place. His second season with the Denver Stars was now an important one for him, whether he knew it or not. Due to his stellar performance during his rookie season, eyes were on him to see if he could repeat his strong play and show consistency. If he were able to do that, it would be safe to say that his skill level and potential are slightly or greater than the average goalies. Campbell didn't not fail his crowd of fans and spectators wishing him on as he made his last season look bad. He went on to win the Patrick Roy Trophy for best goalie during the regular season and was a nominee for MVP of the season. He also led his team to the championship finals only to lose in 2nd overtime of game 7. Where is he now? Blake Campbell is currently training at his Cabin on the mountain in Denver and is awaiting to see which team will choose him as their starter for the upcoming season. He continues to work hard and hasn't taken his focus off the main prize of becoming an elite goalie in the VHL

Earlier today, the leagues latest goalie prospect to have joined the league sat down with us for a brief interview. The results were golden just like the player we interviewed! We hope you enjoy. What should the we expect from you? You should expect some great things from me hopefully. I mean anything can happen at any given moment that could prevent me from reaching my goals. That's just life, but I have a plan in mind to come in here, make some noise and become a very successful goalie for whoever takes me. Who do you want to go to? Whoever can give me the best opportunity to further myself in my career. Of course I want to post strong numbers, I'm a goalie - it's a little more important than if a player does or not. A player can still play good but not score goals or assist any and still have a huge impact on the game. If a goalie plays bad, look the fuck out. With that said, ideally I'd like a team that can offer a starting position. I'm here to lead a team between the pipes, not share it with some guy being 1A and 1B. Are you at all a risk? Potentially, yes but so is everybody. Real life comes first and sometimes that sucks and my other league comes first and sometimes that might suck but I'm super excited right now to begin my goalie adventure and hopefully make a name for myself as a goalie here in the VHL.

Blake Campbell playing for the Denver Stars Everyone could potentially become a great player but there are fewer goalies in professional leagues than players and to be honest, a goalie is a while other create compared to a player. It takes a huge amount of focus, vision, determination and many other things on top of a high skill level. Most goalies train from an extremely young age and it still takes them many years to master with very few coming close to perfecting the position. With people all over the world trying to attempt to make the big leagues in the VHL, your chances are very low to make it. The lower the chances, the harder you will have to work. Many I'm sure are deserving, but there's few more deserving than young goalie prospect Blake Campbell, who absolutely knows a thing or two about putting in the hours to become great. He's the younger brother of the NHL's Dallas Stars goalie prospect Jack Campbell and he has followed in his foot steps from a very young age. He looked up to his brother for being a great goalie and always wanted to become one, however, he started out as a center. He became good at the position but eventually grew old of it as it wasn't challenging at all for him. It wasn't too long after that he'd eventual find his new challenge. On his 9th birthday, Blake's parents both him a set of Reebok pads with a matching glove, blocker and stick. His helmet dawned a wolf biting his white, big teeth as the face part of the mark. He had never been so excited for hockey season to begin. It didn't take long for Blake to get the hang of the position and eventually had competitive amateur teams calling his phone consistently at the start of every season. His strong player, determination and effort earned him high reputation among scouts .Professional scouts have labelled the younger Campbell brother as the one with the most potential saying that he's really passionate about making himself better and that in a lot of ways he's become stronger at the position saying he's become the better "Jack Campbell". The brother rivalry is there but it's all fun and games for them. The real rivalry right now for Blake is himself. He wants to make himself the best possible option for any team to take. He wants to be the guy that wins you the game, even if there was a teammate who got a hatty. Jack Campbell's Agent BANACKOCK released a brief statement earlier this morning from the Pepsi Center in Denver, Colorado. Within it, he announces Blake Campbell's draft eligibility for the upcoming draft plus more. "Firstly I would like to say that I am officially announcing that I am eligible in the upcoming draft. Secondly, thank you for the warm welcome to your league and all the help I've received thus far. I'm not going to lie, this is way more overwhelming than the SHL. It has always been an interest of mine to become a goalie and master it. I currently have a very strong offensive winger in the SHL, am helping my roommate with his Dman (and have great results for him) and now have the urge to see if I can figure being a goalie out. My focus is on SHL as I am a CoGM with a good player and have put tons of work into him (been in the SHL since S4). I'm always going away up North to work in a Camp." His Agent ended it up with a hopeful statement though, With that said, my full intentions are to turn Blake Campbell into one of the leagues current elite goalies. Who ever picks me, there's a risk but there always is. Help me learn this site and in return I will help you by working my ass to ensure I'm the best I can be in net for you." Thank You, Banackock (Goalie - Blake Campbell)
