    It's official, Tuomas Tukio will retire from the VHL at the end of S38.
     
    Time flies, but a constant through the past eight seasons in the VHL was Tukio for me. It's been a time playing with some cool cats through those seasons and being GM as a goalie. Tukio won some games, earned way too much TPE (1400), won a Continental Cup with Helsinki and won some other things last season which was awesome! Hopefully the final chapter in Tukios career can be just as fun as the rest. Good bye.

    I'll apply 
     
    Ever since the last one I applied for (Saskatoon I think?), eaglesfan has shown me a lot. He has taught me how the free agency and waiver wire works, and has let me place some claims on his behalf. I also already know STHS, as I have done lines for Yukon, Team Merc, and a snub tourny team. 

    I also realize that one of the main jobs of a vhlm gm is to promote activity, and this is something that I believe I can do and have done a good job at thus far in Yukon. Whether it ends up being temporary or permanent, I would be happy either way.

    Content: 3/3 - Yukon 2 gud! I agree with you that Yukon and Brampton will be very close this season, with Yukon having a few VHLM superstars while Brampton will be more balanced and with more depth. I found it interesting that you put Ottawa in the final playoff spot, they could ceratinly make it if their players continue to develop. It will be interesting to see what Minot does this season, as they are in a position where they could probably make the final playoff spot or trade off their resources for the future.

    VHLM Standing Predictions - North America
     
    Season 38 has just begun here in the VHLM, and so begins another exciting couple of months. This year could be a very exciting one, as we have several heavily competitive teams spread across the entire league. With the season just getting underway, what better time to throw out some wild and crazy predictions? This week, I am going to be going over my predictions for how the standings will play out in the North American Conference. In coming weeks, expect to see predictions for the European Conference, and maybe even some predictions for individual leaders. Anyways, let's get started.
     
    1. Yukon Rush
     

     
    I believe that the race for the number one spot in North America will be a very, very close on between Yukon and Brampton. If it weren't for Yukon acquiring up and coming goaltender Brock Waldron with the first overall pick of the Season 38 VHLM Dispersal Draft, I would have went with Brampton here. Additionally, Yukon has other young developers such as Kayle Kuzie, as well as more experienced players like Don Draper and Bennet Wahl. Brampton is an extremely strong team, however, if Waldron and the rest of the Yukon squad keep developing at the rate they have been, I think Yukon will be able to squeak by them and take first in the conference.
     
    2. Brampton Blades
     

     
    This one is really given. If Brampton isn't here at second overall, they will first overall. Brampton's incredible strength ultimately comes from a very successful Season 38 Dispersal Draft. At the second overall pick, they were able to pick up Tyson Stokes; a player represented by the famed fever95 agency. With the rest of their picks, they were able to pick up other fantastic players such as Tyrone Williams, Hunter and Hudson Backenbauer, and Daniel Acker. To put the icing on the cake, Brampton was able to claim tough-guy and intimidation factor Sam Keeler on the waiver wire. Brampton has an extremely young roster, for the most part, and that is the reason I placed them second instead of first. I simply think that the more experienced Yukon roster with edge the Blades out of first.
     
    3. Ottawa Lynx
     

     
    Season 37 was, without question, quite a disappointment for the Lynx. Fortunately, things are looking a lot more promising for them this season. Although they traded their first round pick, which would have been first overall, to the Yukon Rush during the off-season, the Lynx still managed to pick up some extremely promising players in this seasons Dispersal Draft. First, a winger who has shown incredible drive and determination, Andrew Erikson. Following that, they picked up the equally driven Andrej Hasek, Mike McGratten, and Daniel Raseri. I am placing the Lynx above the Wild and the Gladiators largely due to the quick rate at which their roster is developing. 
     
    4. Saskatoon Wild
     

     
    Season 38 will be Saskatoon's first full season under the leadership of General Manager Brett Slobodzian, who was appointed near the end of last season following the stepping down of previous General Manager James. Unfortunately, Slobodzian seems to have been left with a mess worthy of a mop, yet only a broom to clean it up with. The Wild did pick up some quality players such as Lights Bokan, Mikkel Boomgarden, and Devin Sundberg. Despite their drafting success, I don't think they will have what it takes to surpass the quickly developing Lynx roster.
     
    5. Minot Gladiators
     

     
    Minot is another organization that is still transitioning after a leadership change. Just a day before the Dispersal Draft, Davey Jones announced his intentions to step down as General Manager. At the request of Jones, veteran General Manager InstantRockstar was selected to take over the helm of Minot. Sadly, he was left with a slowly developing roster and not a whole lot to work with. The Gladiators do have a few notable players, such as Chris Raymond, but certainly not enough to compete. I expect Minot to sell off assets this season, which is why I am predicting them for last place in the North American Conference.

    Will got a reaction from eaglesfan036 in Draper learning a lot as AGM   
    Donald Draper has been the Assistant GM of the Yukon Rush, under GM Austin Gow, since around the middle of last season. Draper was being considered as a candidate to take over the Saskatoon Wild position, but was ultimately passed over in favor of veteran GM Slobo. 

    "You know, to be honest, I am actually glad I didn't get that job. After it was given to Slobo, Mr. Gow really noticed the interest that I have in becoming a GM and he has really taught me a lot," Draper said. 
     
    In recent weeks we have seen Draper acting on Mr. Gow's behalf on several occasions; making free agency claims, waiver claims, and it is even rumored that he has been playing a part in setting the lines for the Rush. 
     
    With such a fantabulous GM showing him the ropes, there is no doubt that Draper will make a great GM someday.

    Id be really interested in this job.

    I can be counted on to get the job done reliably, every week. I believe I'm one of the most active guys on this site currently and would love to get even more involved with the league. Also, I have a PC.

    I think thus far, with my grading job, I have proved I can be reliable to do the job I sign up for. I have worked with STHS a bit under the guidance of eaglesfan, so I do have some of the knowledge required for this.
     
    PS I know I currently have two jobs, but I am looking to pass on the surveying job to a newer member. And this something I am extremely interested in taking on.
