1. What are your plans for next season? Going up, or staying down? Just created a player. Excited to make an impact and hope to keep consistent activity this time around. 2. What are your goals for next season? How do you expect to perform? I plan to establish myself as a decent do-it-all defenseman. 3. Do you have any teams you like outside of your own? If so, why? My old player was on Philly, but I'd like to try out a new team and meet new people. 4. Would you rather win 3 cups in your career, or never win a cup but build a Hall of Fame player? Ideally I'd like to do both. I feel like they go hand-in-hand. Winning is important, but by building a Hall of Fame player, I'm being the best teammate I can be. 5. What's your favorite song that I don't know? While I listen to most genres of music, I don't have a favorite song. 6. Outside of hockey, sports, or sim leagues, what are your hobbies? How do you spend your free time? Doing schoolwork. I play college hockey so that sort of controls my way of life. I spend most of my free time watching YouTube, but most of the time it's just highlights from NHL games.

Left-winger Dylan Doyle has announced today that he will be returning to the VHL. He struggled to find his game throughout his rookie season in the VHL, but after taking some time to develop his skills he has decided it is once again time to prove that he can compete for a roster spot. Doyle is a former 52nd overall pick in the S66 VHL Draft. He scored the Founder's Cup clinching goal in the S66 playoffs for the Philadelphia Reapers. He also recorded 41 goals and 85 points in S67 before making the jump to the VHL. I had the time to ask Doyle a few questions about his return and he responded with this: "My first season in the VHL didn't feel right. I spoke to some of my friends, family, and coaches before making the decision to step away for a season. Now I feel that I am ready to compete and potentially make a difference for my team, if anyone is willing to take a chance on me. I'd like to return back to Calgary, but I'll play for any team that wants me at this point. I understand that opportunities aren't given, they're earned."

Dylan Doyle Forward Points: 85/10 = 8.5 +/-: 51/6 = 8.5 Total: 8.5 + 8.5 + 3 = 20

Disappointed I wasn't picked by my home country of the USA, but I am thrilled to have been selected at all. We must make them pay for this...

2-What is your on ice personality (are you a leader, calm, feisty, the penalty baiter?) I like to keep to myself. More apologetic than rude. 3-Do you show up to every practice, and are you on time? I show up early to every practice. 4-Best friend on the team? I don't think I have a best friend. They're all so great and I am grateful to be a part of this team. 5-How do you think the season is going now that we are a few games in? Just as expected. We're gonna win it all. 6-How do you feel about being in 2nd place? We'll be first in good time. I believe in our team. 7-The Reapers are known for being a team that works hard until they accomplish their goals, do you think you fit that persona? I do. I don't really like to make excuses. If there's something I'm doing wrong, I do what I must to fix it. Regardless of the difficulty.

My opinion is completely biased. Blade has made the greatest impact in keeping me on this site. When I was struggling to get online and was having a hard time doing the bare minimum, Blade didn’t just sit around and let it happen. Almost daily she would grab my attention in the chat to check on me to make sure I actually enjoyed my experience. She does this with all of the members in her VHLM organization. This is part of the reason why she has players begging to be not only a part of her team, but also active in her locker room. Not to mention multiple promising players have recreated just to stick around for another couple of months. Hell, I’ll probably recreate as well(sorry Calgary but my player got off to a very slow start and I want it to be worth while) because of her. On another note, people want to go to Philly because we’re winning. I thought in real life minor league GMs were rewarded positions in the big league when they win. If Philly wins back to back, you’d be silly not to select her. This is not meant to imply that other applicants aren’t suitable choices.

C - Moe Grumpy D - Chig Bungus G - Kids Bop Pick any team you’d like.

1-What did you think of the VHLM Draft? Were there any surprises for you? I thought it went tremendously well for us, and I think some other teams found some good players through the draft. Although, I did notice a lot of poor picks midway through the draft. 2- Did you listen to the draft stream? What makes a draft interesting for you? Personally, I like the draft because it’s an important building block to each franchise. It gives fans of each team a chance to get to know their future stars and gives them incentive to watch their development closer than before. 3- S67 is about to start with a Loaded Reaper Roster how do you feel about this? We’re going to win. 4-Guy with the best name on our team and why. I like Flashback because it is kinda different and a name you will 100% remember after a season like the one we’re about to have. I think Bud Knight is funny though. 5-How are you settling in to life in Philadelphia? It’s great, other than the fact that I let Bud stay at my place and he’s completely trashed it. There’s always glass on the floor because he throws his empty bottles at the trash can. 8-What are your personal goals for the season? I’d like to at least double the 39 points I got last season on the third line. Triple would be great, but I don’t think it’s all that easy to score 117 points. 9- What VHLM team do you think will struggle at this point? Everybody but us.

Red = pizza sauce. I will also post in the competition. I think it has a good chance to win.

7) If you could have created a player of any other position, which position would you have picked and why? Most likely defense. I don't have to worry about contributing points if I play defense. Plus, it's the second most important position in hockey. 8 ) Do you feel there are enough job opportunities on VHLForum? It would be nice for there to be more job openings, but the limited amount makes it pretty competitive, so I'm fine with that. 9) On a scale of 1-10 how important to you was having an active team Discord channel? It helped me get back online when I was losing interest, and it formed a great community within our locker room. 10) How does your player prefer to celebrate after a big win? Celebrate with my teammates, always. 11) If there was a real life brand or product your player would promote, what would it be? Probably a popular hockey brand like CCM since I normally use their gear. 12) What is your top ranked childhood cereal? Cap'N Crunch.

Great team, great community. Couldn’t have asked to do it with a better group.

1. Did you think there would be more or less trades before the trade deadline on Wed. June the 5th? I thought there were a fair amount of trades on the deadline. As many as one should expect. 2. What do you think of the trades? I believe the trades made sense for each team. 3. Something nice you did for one of the New Guys: Anthony Hawk, Matt Tacco, Scotty Big Shotty, Condor Adrienne and Boone Jenton (if you are one of the guys we traded for tell me how the Reapers are doing at making you feel in your new home?) I didn't get to play with Jenton all that much, but I scored off of a pass from him so I guess that counts. 4. Anthony Hawk, Matt Tacco, Scotty BigShotty, Condor Adrienne and Boone Jenton were brought on to help us in our cup goals. Do you think this will help us keep up with the competition? Who do you see being our biggest asset? I envision that they will help us greatly down the stretch, and make the biggest impact with depth scoring in a long playoff series. I don't think I could say one will contribute more than the others. 5. The Minnesota and Philadelphia trades caused a lot of controversy, do you feel like that was warranted? I think they helped us get to where we are now, and hopefully add the finishing touch as we go into the playoffs. I'm not opposed to giving away a couple top picks to get more players that have the opportunity to grow after the draft. 6. Are you excited to know that the Reapers clinched a playoff spot? I'm thrilled. We are where we should've been all season long, on top of the league.

Posting again because I didn't know you can't use a link more than once to update. 6. Who is the Philly GOAT (Greatest of all Time?) We’ll have to see how we fair in this postseason, as I haven’t done too much research into Reapers’ history. Someone is going to have to step up and deliver us a cup. There’s a chance it could be our GM as well. She’s done a brilliant job going from worst to building a powerhouse in this league. 7. Have you ever sent a text message to the wrong person? (what did you say? and who was it?) My brother got a new phone one time, and I also hadn’t saved my manager’s phone number. So, one day I get a rather unprofessional text thinking it was my brother. Unfortunately, I found out five minutes too late when she responded "why did you just call me an idiot?" 8. What is one thing you refuse to share? My Chick-fil-A. Get your own. 9. If you could make a rule for the Reapers and everyone had to follow it, what would it be? Eat Chick-fil-A before and after every game. 10.What movie completely changes its plot when you change one letter in its title? A Big Flea vs A Big Flee. 11. Using only images pick a teammate and describe how you feel about them. (Tag the teammate lol) An absolute beauty on ice. 12. What set of items could you buy that would make the cashier the most uncomfortable? Probably lingerie and say it's for me as I put it on over my clothes as I walk out.

@Dilly Dilly, Bud Knight. 50: IDK 100: IDK 200: 11/18/2019

#1-6: Ending 6/9/19 #7-12: Ending 6/16/19 1. Who would you ask to help you if your muscles froze up after a workout and you couldn't move? Someone I trust wouldn’t steal my belongings when I’m in pain. Most likely my brother. 2. Name something you gave a nickname to that is work related, what nickname did you give it? My friend and I worked valet at a college, but all we really did was drive guests around campus on golf carts. We decided one day that we’d take tennis balls and hurl them at people for fun when they weren’t looking. We called this the “Boomstick.” If you’re wondering, I have literally no idea how we came up with this name. 3. What’s the most beautiful place you’ve ever been as part of your hockey career? Florida because that’s the only place I’ve ever played hockey outside of the VHLM. Plus, it’s a great place and I’m grateful I got to grow up there. 4. When you’ve had a bad day, what is the best thing a teammate has done to help you feel better? Probably ordered me Chick-fil-A. That usually does the trick. 5. When you notice a teammate having a bad day what do you do to cheer them up? Get them Chick-fil-A, always works. 6. Who is the Philly GOAT (Greatest of all Time?) We’ll have to see how we fair in this postseason, as I haven’t done too much research into Reapers’ history. Someone is going to have to step up and deliver us a cup. There’s a chance it could be our GM as well. She’s done a brilliant job going from worst to building a powerhouse in this league. 7. Have you ever sent a text message to the wrong person?

I don’t see a reason why they shouldn’t sign Marner. He’s so young and perhaps hasn’t even reached his full potential. If Dubas lets him go, he’ll be losing ten times as much as he gets back in more ways than just his performance on the ice. Toronto should do whatever they can to get Marner locked in for their future.

1. How do you think the reapers are doing this season? As expected. We're not winning every game, but we're in the running for first place. 2. At this point and time who would you say our 2 biggest competitors are and why? Ottawa is our primary competitor, as they've given us the most difficulty and currently sit above us in the standings. On the other hand there is Saskatoon. They haven't been as much of a problem for us, but we can't sleep on them. 6. Your one piece of advice for a new member. Don't worry about ice time, it'll come if you earn it. 8. What is the once piece of equipment that would affect your game the most if you were forced to change it? Depending on the severity of the change, likely my skates. It would be like losing a part of my body. 10. Your personal best and goals for the future. So far I haven't really set any personal bests in this league. I'd like to win a few championships though. It would be fitting for us to do that this season in Philly. 11. What do you think of all the neck and neck teams in the VHL? Who will edge out who? It's awesome to see how close all of the teams are this season. I've gotta root for my team in Calgary though.
