Id never blame anyone for my choice to ask for advice. But you did give me a good idea to prescout the projected top 10 for next year to give me a clearer picture on who i could land

For a team so deep in talent, the Philadelphia Reapers require some of their top end talent to swap time between their top six and top nine. Each member of their top nine is capable of producing over a point-per-game average. One of those players is Ben Hafkey @ItsMcLovin who has played his entire junior career with Philly. It is hard to imagine a player at 140+ TPE so early in the season could be considered a depth player; this speaks volumes to the high level of talent injected into the VHLM over the last few seasons of scouting (recruitment). The role of a depth player has its ups and downs. While being a favorite in the locker room for making physical sacrifices on the ice, players outside the top six will typically see a lack of production on the scoresheet. Depending on how well versed a fan of the game happens to be, this may result in a player being overlooked or undervalued. The Reapers organization believes in the value of each and every one of their roster players regardless of them being the top center or a sixth d-man. Ben has provided the Reapers with three goals and one assist through 10 games while riding a plus six rating. His 15 hits are sixth on the club. There is no doubt Hafkey will be an incredibly valuable asset on the Reapers for the remainder of the season and playoffs. He will continue to move up and down the lineup as the Reapers move towards perfecting their line chemistries. His career in the VHL will start as soon as season 67 with the Vancouver Wolves after being selected 53rd in the most recent VHL draft.

Okay so in a STHS Sim GM league i am the GM an own the first overall pick in the upcoming entry draft. I am in a serious rebuild tore down my entire roster this year moving veterans. I am for all intensive purposes the Ottawa Senators of my league. Though my prospects are not as highly touted im probably deeper than they are.
 
My top prospects/young NHLers are like this
 
Klim Kostin
Rasmus Andersson
Flilp Gustavsson
Jake Oeteinger
Joesph Veleno
Luke Kunin
Matt Grzleyk
Pierre Oliver Joseph
Sean Day
Ryan Mcleod
Yegor Rykov
Ben Gleason
Vincent Hinastroza
Jayce Hawerlyk
Jordan Martinook
Noah Gregor
 
As you can see some good assets, but no legit high end players. Veleno, Kostin only guys projecting to potentially be top end players at forward. I have 2 high end goalie prospects, plus Gillies who seems to have bust at this point.
 
I will once again be competing for the 1st overall pick next year, which projects to be franchise center, Alex Lafierrene(sorry for the bad spelling). But its a lottery so i could not win. However if i had Hughes and him would likely have to deal one. Versus if i nabbed Kekko now to get an elite tier winger to play with him.
 
What would you do in my position? Given my current prospect depth and knowing i will be once again in the race for 1st overall. 
 
 

Were all good!

Poor @Jables
 
Half of his defensive pair sucks. 

1-The VHL Draft has happened, were you surprised to see players go to certain teams? 
 
Honestly not surprised at all. I’m happy for everyone who was chosen, and I’m glad I was drafted to a team who has a history with me. They know what I’m capable of, and I appreciate them wanting me. 
 
2- We also voted for team captain, what do you think of the way the vote was blind? Would you change that for next season? 
 
No, I think the voting process was fine. The team should choose together who the captains are. 
 
4-Who is your new locker room buddy, who are you saving the locker next to you for?
 
I’m getting along with pretty much everyone. It’s a great locker room. Couldn’t tell you one specific person who I’d save the locker next to me for. Everyone is awesome. 
 
5- Why did you pick your jersey number?
 
I just have a thing with the number 7. Somewhat of a slight OCD with it.

6- Do you wish we had a monochromatic color scheme like some of the other teams do?
 
I think our color scheme is solid. It’s different from the rest of the league which is good.
 
7-Worst topping to put on a pizza?
 
Anchovies.
 
8- how would you describe your players
persona?
 
Laid back, quiet at first, but knows how to have a good time and can be really funny when he breaks out of his shell.
 
9-Team you want to beat the most this season and why?
 
No one team in particular. I want to beat everyone. Let’s win the cup!

Damn. Close right up to the end. Lots of opportunities for the Wild, but Bjoernsson was lights out. Can't wait for the next game!

@BOOM you’re up.

Reapers General Manager

 
Philadelphia has now been in the VHLM for two seasons, after being awarded a franchise before the start of the Season Sixty-Five season. Since the team entered the VHLM the team has been lead by @BladeMaiden, a member I didn’t have much contact with before being drafted by the Reapers this off-season. From my short time around the team in the team discord and locker-room, I fully believe the team is in great hands. Blade is consistently drumming up conversations in the discord and is very responsive to questions posed by the Reapers roster. I have been around the league a long time and have had many great General Managers, and many not so great General Managers, and while Blade may show her passion time to time on the forum and rub some the wrong way, I can’t say enough good things about her and her abilities as a General Manager. I’m excited for the year to continue and what lies ahead for the great roster that was assembled in Philadelphia. With the work that Blade inputs on a daily basis I am really hoping that we can reward her and bring a cup home for her.
 

Love it

Reapers Time
 
The Season Sixty-Six VHLM season is finally underway and the Philadelphia Reapers have been playing pretty well so far. The Reapers have played in a league high six games so far this season and have put together a 5-0-1 record in those six games. In a season with high expectations the Reapers are so far looking like the team everyone thought they would be at this point in the season. Today we’ll look at some of the key contributors in the first six games the Reapers have appeared in.
 
Walter Clements (Season Sixty-Six Draftee - New York Americans):
@cpetrella

 
Clements is a holdover from the Season Sixty-Five Reapers roster, a season where they won a lowly eleven games in that inaugural season. Clements went through the tough times last season, which makes his team leading ten points in six games even sweeter for the young center-man. Clements is playing as the top line center at the beginning of the season, a line that has been responsible for twenty-six points during the first six games. With a lot of season still ahead for the Reapers, fans of the Philadelphia based franchise hope that Clements will continue on his current scoring pace.
 
Kyle Sabertooth (Season Sixty-Six Draftee - Vancouver Wolves):
@uphillmoss

 
Sabertooth joined the Reapers before the beginning of the Season Sixty-Six season as a VHLM free agent, something that doesn’t happen much in the league anymore. Sabertooth wasn’t selected in the VHLM Dispersal Draft due to a technical error regarding his practice hour eligibility, but thankfully the Reapers General Manager made right on others mistakes around the league and grabbed Sabertooth. Sabertooth has been well worth the signing and taking up the only active free agent slot teams in the VHLM are allowed. So far in the six games Sabertooth has appeared in with the Reapers, he has put up four goals and five assists. The scouting report on Sabertooth is that he is billed as a very talented offensive player, something that is clear to those that watch him play his game on a nightly basis. Sabertooth finds himself currently on the top line for the Reapers along with Clements and Bjorn Scoringsonn, something that should help with his offensive production throughout the season as well. Sabertooth and the first line will be heavily relied upon as the season moves on.
 
Kolur Bjoernsson (Season Sixty-Six Draftee - Helsinki Titans):
@jblock3

 
What may be the steal of the Season Sixty-Six VHLM Dispersal Draft, Reapers starting goaltender Kolur Bjoernsson was mister irrelevant, selected with the last pick in the draft. Usually when you are selected in the Fifteenth Round in a professional sports draft, you don’t find yourself with a starting position right away. Bjoernsson has been stellar between the pipes for the Reapers in the five games he has started this season. Bjoernsson has won four of the five games he has started while also putting up a .928 save percentage, and a 1.38 goals against average. With two quality goaltenders on the roster Bjoernsson will need to be at his best night and night out to keep his starting spot throughout the season.
 

I've got a plan for that already

HahahhahahahahahhahahahahahHahaha
 
Oh you were serious? I think it's more likely STHS drank some Mexican drinking water.

Agreed! So hyped for it.

I'm getting really hyped the for the 1st game of Sask vs Philly. Let the rivalry start already!

That team will realize they have to get better at defense.

Oh damn didn't even notice that. It'll be a battle for sure
