Elias Dahlberg has picked up the pace in the VHLM. Him and Matthews are both in the running for the leading point scorer in the VHLM with Dahlberg 1 point behind MacKinnon and Matthews 4 behind. Dahlberg is also leading the VHLM goals race with 38 goals in his 48 games. Dahlberg isn't only limited to the VHLM, he was an obvious choice for Team Europe's GM Esso, who's team has had a great start in the tournament. Dahlberg is still getting used to the tougher competition though, limited to only 2 points in the 4 games he's played he hasn't followed up on his VHLM success. No one is doubting his ability to play though. He hasn't been filling the scoresheet but he has contributed on defense, helping Europe to their 3-1 start. Elias is ahead of fellow European Ylonen, and ahead of the leading VHLM scorer Nathan MacKinnon who has 1 point. Elias will hopefully help Europe on the road to gold and pot more goals as the next days of the round robin come.

Well that game wasn't the result of Esso, instead of gming and playing he was warming the bench for his star Dahlberg

@Sonnet stole us that game

Dream Team, great scoring from our defense

*Notice that Ylonen isn't in the picture as he is tending to the bench's needs.

Good ol' Alberta life

Ill do the VHL @Will

Team Asia is one of the few regions of the world sending players to represent them in the S63 WJC. When the General Managers were announced for each team excitement rose. Later that day and through the next each team announced their roster one by one. As the fans looked at the roster's it was clear to see who were the favourites of the competition, and who weren't. GM's had a lot of choice in their players, and with some hard decisions during training camps on who to cut and who to keep we decided to interview the General Manager of team Asia on how his selection process worked, and why he picked who's on his team. Who was the first immediate person you knew you were going to pick? What were you looking for in the offense that you selected You guys have a strong defensive core for the options available. What do you think of the defenseman you selected? What do you think of your chances with this team? 548 words for use Nov 11

huge 4 point night for me

With the S63 WJC starting soon the 5 team's have annouced their competing rosters. Along with the roster annouces was Team Europe's who named many players including Karl von Moltke, Mikka Pajari and Lando Baxter to name a few. Dahlberg, who has been dominating the VHLM so far with 3rd in points will be closely watched by scouts attending the rookie showcase. Fellow friend and VHLM rival Joe Ylonen is also representing Team Europe. The WJC is the premier tournament for all rookies, and a good performance here is always important to climbing up the draft rankings. Dahlberg on the WJC @Esso2264

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? Probably Davos 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? Definitley, teams have been shaking up their roster after some games 3) About a third of the way through the season, who would you say has been the VHLM's MVP? MacKinnon, guys been scoring left and right. 4) Which other VHLM player would you consider to be your closest rival? Professional Bust and Bench Door Opener Joel Ylonen @Esso2264 5) Play the role of GM of your team, who is the one player on another VHLM franchise that you try to bring in? Jorgon Weyed, we need some scoring and could definitley use him. 6) How do you feel about your current TPE levels? Feel like their pretty good, I'll be over 130 by the end of the week, and hopefully over 160 by the end of the season

1. Feel Like I've had a great season, I'm leading (real) rookies in points, and I'm doing quite good on points. 2. Really enjoy the sense of community thats been created here. I've been able to talk to lots of people about common interests like D&D and the Canucks. 3. I'd like to see the VHL add more people! I feel like were playing the same teams over and over again, and with more teams and people it feels like the VHLM and VHL would be closer and more interesting. 4. Well, two parts to this. I was selected to GM the eventual winners Team Asia, and also selected for Team Europe, so double the chance at winning. Otherwise the WJC seems like a great and well organized tournament. 5. I'd like to play in Calgary as that's my hometown.

I only have 8 to work with, so I think it needs to be 6.

Welp we lose. Bust Ylonen is on the team. GG all fun playing.

Saving the best for 2nd first, I present you the roster of team Asia Forwards: Kissan Shan @Kisshan Nikita Flipachyev @Arayvenn Zhang Shou Tian @ZST Lars Tommernes @Flare Evegeni Golovoy @None Newton Paul @NewtonianBoots Hyuk-Ku Kim @Deft Requis The Demi God @Require The Demi God Defenseman: Dylan Nguyen @Dtayl Evgeni Komarov @Gooningitup Gregor Rasputinov @Joobles Ilya Samorukov @YourInferiorx Bernard Bernardov @Rad Russian Goalies: Alexander Pepper @Sonnet Jimmy Chang @TimNig Excited to GM you all. *Special Thanks to Bana, McWolf, and professional backup goalie BladeMaiden

7-1 Halifax

Looks awesome, better than those graphics of bust Ylonen

Applying for team Europe so no one picks that bust Ylonen @Esso2264 And to win of course

After a series of blowout wins the Lynx haven't been able to keep it up. Ottawa is now on the receiving end of the blowouts. Last year's champs are looking to still push for the cup and break the usual compete-rebuild-compete cycle. General Manager Diamond_Ace is going to look to change up some of the lines after the poor performance on offense, but also on defense. Rookie phenom Elias Dahlberg was tearing up the VHLM but has also had a slow down in offense, along with veteran linemate Chance Matthews and defenseman Gregor Raspuntinov. We asked Dahlberg on what he plans to do to help break his and his team's slump.

Decided to do a graphic this week as I had writers block
