    These questions count as regular press conference questions. You can answer 3 of them for 1 TPE or 6 for 2 TPE, but you can't gain more than 2 TPE a week from press conferences, meaning you can't answer these questions if you have already claimed 2 TPE for other press conferences. You could always come back earlier next week to answer these questions, however.

     

    1. This season's Themed Point Task had you write or make a graphic about the upcoming Sponsor's Shield Tournament and the brands that will compete in it. 
    (if you are associated with a brand) Which brand do you think has the best roster?
    (if you are not associated with a brand) Which brand would you like to represent?

     

    2. What would you like next season's theme to be?

     

    3. Who has your vote for the VHLM's MVP so far in this season?

     

    4. If you had the choice between every job possible in the league, which one would you do? (you can say none if you want to only be a player, it is fine)

     

    5. I am going to release a mock draft early next week. Let's put you up with the same task; who will be the first 4 picks of the draft?
    1st pick (DAV)
    2nd pick (NYA)

    3rd pick (HSK)
    4th pick (NYA from TOR)

     

    6. Do you read the weekly Newsletter? Is this stuff interesting for you?

    1) I am partial because I am part of this team but I really like Netflex's roster. I believe that they are the dark horse for the tournament not being super low in the power rankings but also not having any hype surrounding them.

    2)I'm not to sure. This is my first season being in the league and on the site so I'm still trying to get use to everything.

    3)This might be a boring pick because he is the point leader but Elias Dahlberg. Points matter in the league and whoever is able to produce the most has a really good shot at taking home the MVP.

    4)I really do enjoy being a player but possibly being a GM because I do enjoying trying to build the perfect team.

    5) 1st-Dahlberg

         2nd- Sullivan Jr.

         3rd- Zabby

         4th- Wahl

    6) I don't read it as much as I did when I first joined the league. The stuff is interesting and helps me stay connected with everything that's happening in the league.

    If you've already answered enough questions in other press conferences to reach 2 TPE for this week, then you do not need to answer these questions (These questions here do NOT grant an additional 2 TPE on top of the 2 TPE you've already earned from asking/answering questions in other conferences). 

     

    Also as an extra note for anyone who has submitted for this before, we are now a pinned thread within the press conferences forum, so if you are looking for this thread at a later date and don't see it where it usually is, look towards the top of the press conferences page!

     

    1) I posted up the first Mock Draft for the Season 64 Draft, of the players who were not predicted to be selected in the first two rounds, which player do you think has the most chance of moving up into being selected in the top two rounds when the next Mock Draft is done?

     

    2) The TPE milestone required to automatically be promoted to the VHL for the following season is 200 TPE. 

    i) (If you're below 200 TPE) How long do you think it will take you to reach that milestone?

    ii) (If you're already above 200 TPE) How much TPE do you think you will have by the end of this season? 

     

    3) The World Juniors rosters were announced last week, which team do you think will be the favourite to win the tournament?

     

    4) We're getting close to the week of the Mid-Season PT week, where if you submit a PT that fits the theme, you will earn substantially more TPE. Last season's theme was covering other members players, what theme would you like to see for this seasons PT?

     

    5) From your time in the league, if you could give any advice to a new member entering the league, what would it be?

     

    6) We have a one off VHL All-Star game every season that uses the NHL series as a sim engine and is live-streamed. Would you be interested in seeing a similar game done for the VHLM and what do you think your chances would be of making a VHLM All-Star roster? 

    1) The one player that I see trending up and having that possibility is Sven Hitz.

    2) I would say that it'll take between 6-7 weeks for my player to reach 200 TPE.

    3) Being a little partial I like Team USA's odds, but my second choice is team Canada with their strong goaltending duo!

    4) That would be a good theme to use again, or to discuss different teams and their chemistry.

    5) Ask for help early on when it comes to player build. This way you won't waste any TPE early on in the wrong skills.

    6) That would be an interesting thing to see, and I do believe that my player could be selected to the All-Star Team.

    If you've already answered enough questions in other press conferences to reach 2 TPE for this week, then you do not need to answer these questions (These questions here do NOT grant an additional 2 TPE on top of the 2 TPE you've already earned from asking/answering questions in other conferences). 

     

    1) I'll be doing my first Mock Draft for the Season 64 Draft this coming week. Based on the VHL season so far, which team do you think will hold the first overall pick in that draft?

     

    2) There's been a lot of VHLM trades happening recently, are you surprised by how many trades there have been this early in the season?

     

    3) About a third of the way through the season, who would you say has been the VHLM's MVP?

     

    4) Which other VHLM player would you consider to be your closest rival?

     

    5) Play the role of GM of your team, who is the one player on another VHLM franchise that you try to bring in?

     

    6) How do you feel about your current TPE levels? 

    1) I believe HC Davos will continue to slide and maintain a firm hold on last place.

    2) I'm fairly new to the league, but I did a media spot on it and my replies reflected that there has been unusually high trades this season.

    3) Nathan MacKinnon for sure.

    4) Evgeni Komarov but its a friendly rivalry.

    5) Rhett Stoffiday to add a better netminder to our team.

    6) I feel good about my player's growth and I hope that it starts reflect on the scoreboard and in our team's standing.

  4. Trade Talk (Oct. 31st)

                Happy Halloween! This article will review and discuss the recent trades that have taken place in the VHLM and the effects that they have on players, teams, and the league overall. I will begin with the most recent of trades and work backwards. I will be excluding trades that do not involve any players since the true weight of those trades won’t be known until seasons later.

     

    Oct 30th, 2018- Las Vegas Aces and Saskatoon Wild:

     

                This trade is a goalie switch with Las Vegas receiving Kevin Weekes and S64 Saskatoon 2nd round pick and Saskatoon receiving Brick Wahl. After 18 games Wahl has a record of 7-9-2, with a .893 save percentage, and 3.13 goals averaged against. After 18 games Weekes has a record of 10-8-0, a save percentage of .896, and 2.21 goals averaged against. On paper alone this looks like a steal for the Las Vegas Aces. Both goaltenders have basically the same stats with Weekes edging out Wahl in all the categories, but the key is the growth of Wahl. He is averaging the most growth out of any goaltender in the VHLM right now and will more than likely be a top pick in the VHL draft. The possibility of what Wahl can become for the Wild makes this a trade that needs to be revisited later in the season to see who the real winner of this trade is. Until Wahl blossoms into a star this trade seems like an immediate win for Las Vegas.

     

    Oct 29th, 2018- Halifax 21st and Las Vegas Aces:

     

                This trade, that focused on defensemen, has Halifax acquiring Evgeni Komarov and S64 Las Vegas 7th round pick, and Las Vegas acquiring Juri Rykonen, S64 Halifax 4th round pick, and S65 Halifax 2nd round pick. In 18 games Komarov had 1 goal and 9 assists for 10 points, a plus/minus of +10, and 53 hits. In 18 games Rykonen has 1 goal and 8 assists for 9 points, a plus/minus of +3, and 54 hits. Similar to the first trade discussed this trade also looks lopsided from the stats perspective. It seems that Las Vegas has again robbed a team of picks for basically the same players. Also, similar to the first play the key is in Komarov’s growth. While not as great as Brick Wahl’s growth Komarov’s is still noticeable. If he continues on this path he is a great shut down defensemen to be on the top pair for a team. This is reflected in his +10 stat showing that he is defensively minded and responsible while he is on the ice. Las Vegas seems to be giving away players with lots of potential to grab draft picks for the coming years. Unlike the first trade though, Las Vegas has the depth on defense for this trade. They still have a great top pair in Kachur and Parker while adding Rykonen to their second pair. In order to decide a clear winner this will take more time because we will have to see which players these picks become. If I had to pick a winner now I would chose Las Vegas because they were able to off-load extra depth in exchange for good draft picks.

     

    Oct. 28th, 2018- Halifax 21st and Oslo Storm:

     

                This trade and the next trade that will be talked about point to one thing, Oslo is going for the tank this year. In this trade Halifax acquires Jesse Wilson and Oslo acquires S64 Halifax 1st round pick. In 17 games Wilson has 5 goals and 20 assists for 25 points, a plus/minus of -3, and 47 hits. He leaves a struggling Oslo team and joins the most promising team in the VHLM. He was Oslo’s highest point scorer and is now Halifax’s third highest. There isn’t too much to say about this trade. Halifax was able to gain a top forward in the push for the playoffs and Oslo is able to gain another pick to aid them in their rebuild next draft. I think this is a win for both teams with an edge going to Halifax because I believe that Wilson was worth more than just a first round pick.

     

    Oct. 24th, 2018- Oslo Storm and Saskatoon Wild:

     

                As I mentioned with the previous trade this is again an indication that Oslo is embracing the tank. Oslo acquires S64 Saskatoon 1st round pick, S64 Halifax 2nd round pick, and S64 Saskatoon 3rd round pick and Saskatoon acquires Anthony Dabarno and S64 Oslo 6th round pick.  

    In 17 games Dabarno has 5 goals and 11 assists for 16 points, a plus/minus of +11, only 8 penalty minutes, and 25 hits. Dabarno is a decent scorer but really shines in the discipline he shows on the ice. With a plus/minus of +11 and only 8 penalty minutes he is the type of player you want on the ice during crucial moments. The Wild gave up a haul for this forward, but with the Wild needing a push to get them into the upper echelon of the VHLM Dabarno could be exactly the player they are looking for. Similar to the previous trade we will need to see the results of this season’s play and also what these picks become in order to fully grade this trade. On the surface, it seems both teams got things that they need, but in my personal opinion if the Wild fall short of the cup Oslo takes this trade.

     

    Oct. 23rd, 2018- Yukon Rush and Las Vegas Aces:

     

                The last of the trades involving players is the smallest trade. Yukon acquire Jack Lockwood and Las Vegas acquires S65 Yukon 5th round pick. This trade on the surface seems like a great move by Las Vegas. In 19 games Lockwood has 0 points, a plus/minus of -3, 8 penalty minutes, and 3 hits. Unless Lockwood starts producing anything this will be a lopsided trade because as long as Las Vegas selects a player with that pick that positively contributes to the team they will be better than Lockwood. There may be more to this trade that I do not see but from my limited perspective it leaves me scratching my head at Yukon.

  5. Early Season Report on Eric Parker

                The Las Vegas Aces blue liner has been adjusting to the VHLM. In thirteen games Parker has 3 goals and 3 assists for a total of 6 points. Parker was selected in the 4th round of the VHLM draft last month and is looking for every opportunity to prove himself. On the Las Vegas Aces defensive depth chart, he is ranked third making him the second pair D option for the Aces. There were obvious growing pains for Parker seeing that many of his points have come during the last 4 games, but this is showing the young blue liner’s ability to adapt to the game and his position on the ice. Parker has done a decent job of balancing his game while having 6 points he also has a plus/minus of +3. With that being said out of all the teams in the VHLM only two have a negative goal differential Las Vegas and Oslo. Las Vegas has to begin to create more shot opportunities if they are looking to climb the rankings again. This means that Parker is going to have to take more shots. After 13 games Parker has 24 shots putting at 1.82 shots per game. Averaging right under 2 shots per game is not going to help Las Vegas’ scoring drought. Parker’s problem is that he sometimes holds onto the puck too long looking for the perfect scoring chance. Part of playing in the VHLM is getting pucks towards the net. It will add pressure to the net minder while also adding to the opportunity for juicy rebounds for Parker’s line mates. Parker’s hockey IQ is great but the downside to it is that sometimes the right thing is very simple and often overlooked. There have been some great highlight reel goals and assists from the youngster, but in order to put more points on the board and help the team out overall Parker needs to throw the puck on net more.

                Parker’s defensive side of his game is good. As previously mentioned he has a +3 and has not allowed for more than a -1 stat in any of his games. He is responsible when he is on the ice and has been reliable as a defender when his team needs him to be. As a mid sized defensemen Parker needs to assert himself more physically on the ice. In 13 games, he has only 15 hits averaging just over 1 hit a game. Parker needs to be better about finishing his checks and wearing down the opponent physically with his presence. This will in turn lead to more offensive opportunities for his team and help Las Vegas in their struggles.

                Parker is obviously focused on the VHLM season right now but is excited about the possibility of representing his country at the VWJC. He is very passionate about asserting his presence as an American hockey player. He is very excited about joining a young and exciting team of Americans who will look to bring home the gold for their country.

    If you've already answered enough questions in other press conferences to reach 2 TPE for this week, then you do not need to answer these questions (These questions here do NOT grant an additional 2 TPE on top of the 2 TPE you've already earned from asking/answering questions in other conferences). 

     

    1) Out of the players brought in through free agency/waivers post-draft (John Madden, Bobby Power, Brick Wahl, Mark Gebauer, Evgeni Komarov, Divaani Sohva, Finn Davison, Jonathon Hill, Kyson Blake), who do you think will go on to have the best career?

    2) What are your thoughts on the player management section of the portal? Anything you'd like to see added to it?

    3) Who is the one member in the league who you would like to play on the same team as?

    4) If the VHL or VHLM were to ever expand, what cities would you like to see represented?

    5) Who do you think will be in the top four picks in the Season 64 Draft Class?

    6) What would you say is the best graphic that you've seen on the VHL?

    1) I believe Brick Wahl will have the best career. Mainly because he is consistent in his TPE earning every week and also because he will have every opportunity to prove himself since he is the starting Goalie on a competitive Las Vegas Team.

    2) I think it is a very well put together page. My only suggestion would be that maybe some of the more obscure player traits such as Strength and Leadership could have some descriptions on how they will affect your player during simulations.

    3) It would be fun to play with Ryan Peace. I feel that we could have good chemistry with my play making abilities and his ability to finish.

    4) It would be nice to try to expand to the southern market in America.

    5) I say that the first four picks will be in this order; Ryan Sullivan Jr., Ryan Zabby, Gucci Garrop, and Bo Axelsson.

    6) The Helsinki Titans for sure!

  9. Getting Drafted

                Eric Parker was hopefully paying attention to the VHLM S63 draft waiting to hear his name called out. He was an interesting pick to say the least. It was very obvious that he wasnt going to go in the first round or the second round. Even the third round was more than likely out of reach without a team really stretching because of a need on the blue line. He was starting to lose interest in the draft when all of a sudden, he was drafted in the 4th round by the Las Vegas Aces. He was very excited but also knew that now the real work would begin. He talked to his agent, representatives from the team, said goodbye to his family, and head out to Reno for the beginning of training camp. He was not super familiar with the big city lifestyle especially not a city as wild as Las Vegas but he assured his family and mentors that he wouldn’t lose focus on the prize, the VHL. He knew as a 4th round selection that he was going to have to work hard to make sure that he was given the ice time he wanted. Gone were the days where he was the only superb talent on the ice and knew that he was going to be guaranteed ice time just because of his natural skill. Every piece of ice time he was going to get only if he deserved it, but he wouldnt have it any other way.

    The Surprise of Free Agency

                While traveling and getting settled into Reno for soon the beginning of training camp to begin he was the news that the Las Vegas Aces had landed the very popular and coveted Brick Wahl for their top goaltender. This was great news! With such a solid goaltender backing him up he had a renewed surge of confidence. He was going to be able to play faster and looser knowing that there was solid backing behind him. He was obviously going to defensively responsible but not every little mistake would end up in the back of the net. The next big free agent signing by the team came with a more bittersweet feeling. The Las Vegas Aces had landed another great player in Evgeni Komarov. This was a great signing for the team providing another great player to be added to the roster, but it meant that there was even more stiff competition for ice time now. Parker knew he already had to work hard but with a player of Komarovs stature it would be even more difficult to gain top ice time minutes every night. This only fueled Parkers fire because he had even more to prove to the front office and coaches of the team. This week has been a whirlwind of events from the anticipation and relief of the draft to the bittersweetness of free agency. Either way Parker is loving the beginning of his VHLM and VHL adventure and nothing at all beats being able to professionally play hockey!
