  6. Beat Smirnov by a point rather.
  7. Lol, Idk why you'd take Thompson second. Smirnov was a rookie last year and Thompson only won by a point. I could see him winning the scoring race this year. So that will be my pick.Vyacheslav Smirnov. @Romaris
  8. Lol I don't know man. You seem like one tough customer. ?
  9. Thank you so much for this opportunity. Looking forward to starting a new era with you @Trifecta. I will not let you down.
  10. Hello. I'd love to have the GM job. I would be super committed to the team and I always try to inspire. I may need a bit of training but my own GM @ShawnGlade who, if you don't already know him, is a super nice person has offered to help as you can see. I have done many Franchise Mode Games in EA's NHL series so I know what being a GM is about and it is my favourite thing about hockey. I am even thinking of maybe becoming a hockey GM in real life. I would be super keen to get the job and I am super active and commited and I will do whatever necessary to become a GM. If you don't choose me, I would love to be assistant GM for Oslo or any other team that wants to hire me. I hope you take me into consideration, but if not, that's OK, i'll just keep trying until I get a job.
  11. Username: DucksFan64 Player Name: John Madden Brand Preference #1: VIKING (I'd be willing to take any available brand) Brand Preference #2: True North Gear Why should we choose you?: I am a new member to the sight but I really want to get some practice doing GMing type jobs. I am super keen to help out with the brands and I will do what is required of me. I am also super team-oriented and I will try to be an inspiration to my players. I am usually active after I am done with school. I will try really hard to get a good team together to compete if you choose me. If not that's ok but if you could tell me another way to get involved in the GM situation, that would be awesome.
  12. @Mcwolf yeah man, I'm truly sorry that I didn't sign with you. I hope I didn't let you down too much. It just seemed to me like Halifax needed my help more. EDIT: I was good at tagging people eh @McWolf? Funny to see how things were before we were crammed together in an office every day lmao.
  13. Hi @Banackock. I have signed with Halifax now. Is there a way for you or someone to add me to the team?

      I can sure get you there later on today and for the time being if he hasn’t, @ShawnGlade can get you in their LR on the forum! 

  14. John Madden | #11 RW/LW | 6' 2" | 207 lb | Age: 17 | Halifax 21st SUMMARY John Madden Born: May 19, 2001 Birthplace: Heddesheim, DEU Shoots: Right Draft: Season 63, Undrafted PLAYING CAREER 2010-11 | Prince George Atom Cats | 36 GP | 19 G | 18 A | 37 P 2011-12 | Prince George Atom Cats | 35 GP | 26 G | 22 A | 48 P 2012-13 | Prince George Peewee Cats | 36 GP | 28 G | 15 A | 43 P 2013-14 | Calgary Springbank 1 Peewee | 20 GP | 19 G | 13 A | 32 P 2014-15 | Calgary Springbank 1 Bantam | 18 GP | 12 G | 15 A | 27 P 2015-16 | Calgary Springbank 1 Bantam | 20 GP | 19 G | 24 A | 43 P 2016-17 | NWCAA Stamps Midget | 42 GP | 14 G | 14 A | 28 P 2017-18 | NWCAA Stamps Midget | 27 GP | 14 G | 19 A | 33 P STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES Strengths 1. Speed John Madden is very good at getting up the ice quickly. He is especially good at end-to-end rushes where the puck quickly leaves the defensive zone. He can speed past most opponents with or without the puck. John has very quick acceleration for his age and lead his midget AA team in breakaways last year with 18 as well as breakaway goals with 5. His explosive speed in action is a sight to behold. 2. Shooting Throughout his entire playing career, John Madden has been fine-tuning his snapshot, which makes it one of his most lethal weapons on the ice. His signature play is to start in his own end and when there is a turnover and his team gets the puck, he tears down the left section of the rink at full blast, leaving all opposing attackers and often defenders in the dust. As he crosses the red-line, his centerman passes him the puck and he streaks in to the opponent's zone. When he gets to the hash-marks, he rips the puck using his deadly snapper and often nails the top-right corner. It was a play he used over and over again in midget. Simple, but unstoppable when executed correctly. 3. Passing Madden isn't exactly known for his passing and defenders tend to focus way more on his scoring ability, when he is in the slot. However, though Madden shoots way more than he passes, his play-making ability is the most underrated part of his game. When he does make a pass, it's almost always right on the tape and some experts say that if Madden started passing more, he could be known as one of the elite play-makers in minor hockey. He isn't often involved in the play in his own end so he gets less passing opportunities then some. When he has the puck, he is normally way ahead of his teammates and there is not much chance of a pass there either. But in the rare scenario where he does get a chance to pass, he almost always cashes in the assist. Weaknesses 1. Defense Madden's defensive ability is definitely his biggest deficit. He is almost non-existent in his own end. He rarely touches the puck, never poke checks, blocks shots or clears the puck. He just sits there until there is a turnover. He has said in a recent interview that he has tried in the past to bring up his defensive game but his coaches have always said to just stick to offense. He is at the point where he has given up on trying to play defense but his work ethic on offense just about makes up for it completely. 2. Checking Checking is something that, unlike many other aspects of the game, never quite clicked for Madden. When ever he tries to poke-check, he mistimes it and takes a tripping penalty. When he tries to stay with his check, they always out-muscle him by pushing and when he pushes back, he takes interference penalties. Checking is another thing that Madden is about ready to give up on but not all hope is lost because the odd time he does strip a defensemen of the puck as he is leaving his own zone. 3.Strength While Madden isn't exactly a small player, he struggles with some of the more physical aspects of the game. He is learning how to be tougher on the puck as to not give it up so easily. Madden also believes that getting stronger will improve his game all-around. His strength is not so much a weakness, but more a focus for him while trying to improve. Madden in 2016-17 season. On October 9th, 2018, John Madden was signed to the VHLM team, Halifax 21st.
  15. Contract bidding is now closed. I have decided to sign with Halifax. I would like to thank everyone for their time and wish them all luck going into the season. All of you provided excellent cases and it came right down to the wire. There were times where I leaned towards each of you but in the end it came down to ice-time and Halifax offered the most. I hope you all have excellent seasons and I shall see you at the rink. -John
  16. @McWolf Hello, my name is John Madden, Season 63 VHML rookie free agent. First of all, I'd like to congratulate you and the Ottawa Lynx on your recent championship win. And secondly, I want to thank you for offering me my first ever VHLM contract. I certainly appreciate that you took the time to do so. I am currently taking some time to decide which organization is offering me the most opportunity and what would be best for my career. The fact that you were my first ever offer puts you in a special place in my heart and whether I sign with the Lynx or not I will forever hold you and the team in high regards. I believe you have a distinct edge in the running and I will most likely choose to sign with you unless another team offers me better minutes and a great shot at the championship. As I have said, I am taking the time to mull all of my offers over before I make any decisions but I will get back to you when I have decided. If I so chose, I would be truly honoured to be a part of such a prestigious organization under your excellent management. I hope you have an outstanding season, whether or not I'm a part of it, and I wish you all the best of luck.
  17. Sorry, I'm not sure who I should be asking these questions to, but you seemed nice last time I talked to you and also you are the only person I've talked to. I just want to know how I get on a team. The draft passed and I am now considered a free agent but I don't know how I should negotiate contract talks or get signed or such.

      @diamond_ace if he's still on or @Banackock or really any of the VHLM GMs will make a thread where VHLM GMs will make contract offers to you. You likely just joined, which is why you didn't get picked in the draft, but you'll get the chance to join a team in no time, I'm sure.

      Don't worry sir your not missing any games. We just entered the off-season, so you'll get signed onto a VHLM team before the start of Season 63. 

  18. My first time ever attempting to create any kind of graphic. I put lots of effort into it but I know it isn't the best image you have ever seen.
  19. Hello, I was just wondering if you know what the process is for deciding how many points certain players get and what influences their effectiveness.

      Welcome to the site!

      You actually earn your points via point tasks or special event and weekly tasks. You can find most of them under the point task section. The influence of each stat work with each other and against the other team and the engine figures out who wins.

       

      Let me know if you have any other questions!
