1. Lowkey excited to see how my player performs and trying to build up some draft stock for my player. 2. 4-2 W lock 3. I sit in my locker, turtling inside my jersey 4. Playing on an empty stomach and one C4 energy drink gives me peak performance. 5. Believe or it not, Full Player Name wants to legally change his name to literally anything else. 6. Yes but it falls under a different category compared to a traditional sandwich since it's long.

1. I'm pretty excited to play for the Marlins, I feel like we have a pretty decent team. 2. Like I said before, I'm excited. I've pretty much exclusively played for Las Vegas with my previous players so it's cool to get a fresh team. 3. Definitely planning on pumping up on my poke checking abilities as well as my skating 4. I can't really answer either since I'm returning but wasn't around last season lol. But I will say I really like the new TPE system compared to the old one. 5. Niklas Kronwall. Big hits, solid D, and can put up a decent amount of points. 6. I like pepperoni but I also like myself a buffalo slice every once in a while.

I wish I could change my players name because this is just so dumb. What was I thinking? I thought I would be smart enough to not do something dumb like this by now. Anyways, I was just drafted by the Marlins, and I'm hoping I can be a solid defenseman for them. My goal with this player is to be similar to my last player, which was a hard hitting defenseman that can also get points. Just from looking at the Marlins, we look like we have a solid team. We aren't going to blow anyone away but we are put together well, and we will only improve as the season goes on. I'm hoping my consistent TPE earning will be enough to solidify me as the third dman on the team. As of now I'm fourth in terms of TPE, but the grind starts now. I hate writing articles like this because I feel like such an NPC but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do for the TPE.

1. I think I have in the past with one of my previous players, but I'm not entirely sure to be honest. I was in the WJC and World Cup but I think those may have been in season tournaments. (I know WJC was midseason) 2. I was signed as an FA and not drafted, but the decision to join the pickles was an easy one. The name is beautiful, and I felt like I could earn the most minutes here compared to other teams. 3. I want to be a big body defenseman, so hopefully I throw some hits in the showcase. 4. Cbat by Hudson Mohawke 5. I do like pickles, but for whatever reason the pickles that come with cole slaw at diners is not it. 6. The Philadelphia Cheesesteaks

#SlicedToWin Thanks for the offers, but playing on a team called the Pickles is too hard to pass up

So apparently today is my 1000th day on the VHL. I only knew this because I must have put it in my phones calendar back in 2019 because I got a calendar notification that said 1000 and was confused for a while until I eventually figured it out. Even though I don't really come on here anymore I still think of this place very fondly and it was really great when I was very active. I have a few really great memories from this site, one of them really sticks out but I don't know if I'm allowed to say it. If you know you know. Anyways, it makes me feel old that it's been 1000 days since my cousin first told me about this site, and I stumbled onto Saskatoon and had no idea what was going on. I relied on the discord to tell me the scores because I didn't know where to find them on the site. I also had the how to earn TPE guide from Will bookmarked and I would check it a lot to make sure I was doing everything I could. I just started my freshman year of high school when I joined this site and now I start my senior year in just a couple weeks. Being a part of VSN for nearly all of 2019 is what I am most proud of, and it's transformation into what it is today is awesome to see. Being a part of it again in 2020 was pretty great too. It even got me to start liking sports writing even more than I already did and now I just started writing for the New Era Hockey Network, which you probably have never heard of but it's pretty cool. I just wrote my first article where I basically just shat on the Canucks for being horrible with their cap space. That's a bit of an exaggeration but I did write about the Canucks and how Benning is weird. This site also made me not like the Canucks because everyone here was a Canucks fan and I liked to see everyone get sad when they lost. The day they lost to Vegas in 7 was a joyous day for me to just watch the discord, but the day they beat Minnesota was horrible. It was flooded with messages and everyone was acting like they just won the cup, even though they just beat a team who's best player was a 100 year old Eric Staal. Lots of great memories from this place. Being on Malmo in their early years was an incredible experience with the team and the locker room we had, and our cup run in S68 was awesome even though it ended quite disappointingly. The amount of times I would write that the Bears only were good because they were in a weak eastern conference and that in Europe they would barely be in 4th (which by points I think was true) and then they came in and swept us, that was pretty sad for me. Being in Calgary was great too, but again losing to the Bears sucked. I believe it was the conference finals of S73 when we blew a 3-1 lead. When I got drafted to Calgary I was pissed and was set on leaving after three seasons but it ended up being great there, the team was great and Jubis turned that team around. Thanks to the VHL for all the good times, I hope I will be back eventually.

750 elo, lets goooo

4 TPE, uncapped package 1/5

The General is on his fourth team in just a couple months. He was on Calgary last off-season before signing in Riga, which went south quickly. He was then traded to Seattle, won a cup, and then was promptly shipped off to London. Zod has two goals for his final season of his VHL career: win the cup, and don't pick up a British accent while he's in London. It's tough to get traded from a contender, but London is looking pretty good this upcoming season with stud goalie Jacob Tonn, as well as a solid group of forwards and defense. General Zod and Micah Adrienne will headline the London defense, forming a pretty formidable one two punch. Zod is coming off a career season with 69 points (nice), while Adrienne had 78 points last season which was also a career high for him. As long as the offense can stay strong, I don't see any reason why London can't make a nice run in the playoffs. 167 words

1. I've been a bit inconsistent with my TPE earning and keeping up, but I'm doing enough to keep my place and know what's going on. I see no reason why we can't go on a deep run. 2. It sucks, but you got the General to replace him. We will be just fine. 3. I already spent it on a TPE package, this will be my last season so I figured I might as well spend the rest of my money on whatever I can. 4. I've only been on the team for a few hours so I don't think I can really make an educated comment on this. But I'm sure whoever is picked will be worthy of the C. 5. Probably some kind of big cat, like a jaguar or a cheetah. 6. I don't know who would be exciting but my dog would be the most boring. She just sits around all day and if she was a human I imagine she would be a basic white girl obsessed with tiktok and starbucks.
