  3. dw @omgitshim i was gonna wait my full 12 hours for u fam
  4. 1. How has the offseason gone for you so far? Long and boring. I'm used to contending until the conference finals or cup finals, but it wasn't to be for Jet Jaguar's last season in Moscow. 2a. ( for drafted players) Before the draft, what were your expectations for the draft? Honestly I was expecting to go in the top 3 picks because, I mean, I'm a legendary VHLer coming off of a great career. I guess VHLM GMs aren't that smart though. 3. How satisfied are you with your team so far? which player looks like a promising star for the hounds this season? I think we're looking like a contending unit. I'm not sure about the existing players from last year, but I think JORDAN TATE can become a breakout star for the Hounds. 4. What areas should the hounds focus on more post draft? Not a clue honestly. Seems like STHS success is really dependent on a good starting goalie, so I'd say goalie unless our current goalie is a stud. 5. What areas did you think the draft have improved for the hounds? Definitely an improvement on the D-corps with the draft additions of L and R, the new premier defensive partnership in the VHLM. 6. Fall is coming up, favorite season of mine is ending . . . what is your favorite season? It's actually Fall. Not too hot, but not too cold. Pumpkin pies and Halloween. I'm ready for Fall.
  5. bump cuz i'm not impressed with the low view count
  6. D - Condor Adrienne @Crstats23 your pick
  7. L and R, two brothers from rural Ukraine, are highly-touted prospects in professional ice hockey. Prior to being discovered and drafted to the VHLM, the brothers played their junior hockey in the American southeast after their father, a Ukrainian mobster, relocated his family there to setup a cocaine distribution channel to other Eastern European gangsters along the east coast. His eventual drug empire was beneficial to the brother's ice hockey career, as it afforded them the ability to go to the most prestigious and rare hockey camps and schools. L and R have spent their lives playing together as a defence pairing throughout junior hockey. Their strengths benefit each other's weaknesses and if they fulfill their potential, they have a chance to change the ideology of defence in the current scene of pro hockey. Scouts have said it's almost like they share a telepathic link and know exactly where each other are on the ice. They play defence through creative lane-disruption techniques allowed for easy zone exits and transitions to fast break offence. Their play caused them to rise to prominence in the North American sim hockey scene, and both look destined to be VHL first round draft picks. L being sent to the penalty box. L has traditionally played as the left defenceman while R plays on the right-side. Both players put their lives on the line every time they step onto the sim. They are both physical yet elegant in their approach to defending and use a combination of accurate puck prediction along with the ability to use their body to separate puck and player. The only evident discriminating feature between the brothers is a lust for violence. L is known to be a hot-head and ready to drop the gloves at any opportunity, while R is much more reserved and calculated, rarely spending time in the penalty box. When interviewed, the brothers have stated they aim to spend their professional careers as a defense partnership and believe that VHL franchises will also see the benefit of keeping them together, and make the appropriate transactions to ensure it happens. For S74, the brothers will be suiting up for the Mississauga Hounds, who had to make a trade to ensure both brothers came to Ontario for their VHLM season. The future is bright for the Ukrainian drug-empire heirs and the pair will be looking to chase the ultimate prize in the VHL, the Continental Cup, over the course of their upcoming career. All interested GM's should definitely assure they have two first-round selections if they want to secure the services of the next premier defensive partnership in the VHL.

  8. Salutations VHLiens, Some of you might have been under the impression that S73 BUST or LICK was the last entry into the Bust or Lick franchise, but I assure you that was purely a troll. I don't care about anyone's feelings or VHL career besides my own. DUH. However, I will once again preface this seasonal BUST or LICK vhl.com article with a warning that it is purely for comedic value, there's really no actual scouting or research that goes into this article, and I obviously can't give out more than a few LICK statuses every year. If you find yourself as a BUST in my rankings, I implore you to use it as motivation to have a Hall-of-Fame VHL career and throw it in my face down the road. Now, without further adieu, I present the S74 BUST or LICK rankings: 1. Aloe Dear - @Renomitsu - 1st oa has always been a lick. While I do subscribe to the theory that there is a red flag for instant inactivity due to career/life, which not many others subscribe to, I think Renomitsu is a smart and good-hearted guy and great VHL member. Easiest LICK of the season. 2. Christian Mingle - @Quik - We all know I love old gen recreates, so you'd think this is a safe lick, but no. How am I gonna be out here giving a blue boy lick status? If somebody wants to run a sim league properly, they shouldn't have a player and just move as the commish. Name me as sole commish and I'll do this with no questions asked. BUST cuz he'll want to play for every team or some gimmick like that. 3. Venus Thightrap - @BladeMaiden - I find Blade to be very enjoyable to speak with. She is pretty funny and quick-witted. However, she prophetically asked for the old gorlab back in discord a day or two ago and is seeing him here. Inactivity risks are other league participation and character trait of questioning/challenging authority. Has had activity-ending beef with VHL(ers) in the past. Probably has a lovely BUST IRL. 4. Emi Rune - @Emi - Interesting pick here from beav. Is this the VAN Co-GM? I've seen their art on VHL and respect their work, I think they have an eye for style/design and could go a long way with graphic design. This is a beaviss top-5 pick though. Through no fault of this new gen player's, besides maybe a fairly high attraction to anime renders, this pick obviously has to BUST up because it's beav. Sorry there, Emi. Keep up your graphics skill and always look to improve!! 5. Doug Dimmadome - @Esso2264 - I'm an esso2264 subscriber on twitch, so obviously I am a fan of his. I like Josh and think he cracked the code and entered the matrix as a GM. The recipe of a lick is bubbling up here. Last player was mid though and I also don't agree with GM players just fucking off and getting drafted to other teams. Seems like a conflict of interest to me. I want to give a bust here, but I think DOUG DIMMADOME will be a LICK. Meme render selection puts him over the lick line. 6. Onde Sandstrom - @fonziGG - Beavis' coup de grâce of this draft. His last frontier on securing a lick. fonzi is nice enough and I like chatting w/ him on discord. Michael Johnson to me was an absolute bust, so let's hope his first player failure is out of the way and he'll be successful here. Beavis, congratulations bud, you have used this 1st round pick to secure a BUST. Fuck outta here. 7. Markus Schauer - @Plate - Made him a sig when he was in juniors, and he is still around and I'm pretty sure wearing the sig. I think his last player was in my draft class, and busted up. I wish him luck on his new player and will make him an updated NYA sig. Just barely not a lick for me. BUST. 8. John LeClair II - @flyersfan1453 - Legendary VHLer. Cups on cups. A member of probably the most iconic VHL family. Obviously a LICK for me. Not much else to be said. I chat with his brother a lot more, so you know flyers is slightly smarter than eagles, and thus more dangerous in cranking out HoFers. LICK all day long. Should not have slipped this far. GM's are ___________ . 9. Julian Nousiainen - @okochastar - Love this guy since meeting him on SBA. Glad to see he's still sort of active, I assume he'll be a consistent tpe earner now that SBA affiliation is back, but his heart and passion seems to be there and not on VHL. Great guy, but fuck you guys think, this is sweet? Player name too hard to pronounce. BUST. 10. Ryan Schwarz - @Enorama - BUST OF THE ROUND. Not sure what McWolf is thinking here. At the end-of-the-day, Eno is going to use his player to benefit DCD. I think GM players should be locked on their teams, unless traded away to retool/rebuild. Enorama is a wild know-it-all. I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him. He's now 3 or 4 players deep into his VHL career with early retirements and shit. Most tpe earned ever and career was worse than Jaguar. BUST OF THE ROUND. 11. Luke Thornton - @Jtv123 - Twitch chat was screaming that this guy dropped super far. JTV123 has been around and I don't see any activity risks. He has the same psyduck avatar as ofer, which I like. If I didn't care about ensuring I didn't give away too many licks, this guy could definitely get a lick. Was in Jaguar's draft class with last player and was somewhat of a non-factor. Hope he does better here, but it's a BUST for me. 12. Kasper Kankkunen - Z16 - apparently he already changed his username? - I remember his last player, Ryan Busser (BUSTer) so I hope he has a better go if it this time around. Hate the player name. Sorry about calling you a BUST, it's just part of the gimmick of the article. Good luck with your career. 13. Lester Green - @Smarch - Wow an old school VHLer and a fellow Sasky. You'd think I'd be decent enough to throw a lick out here to an old friend, but no. Smarch hasn't had a successful player since before I was banned on SBA, which is now years ago. BUST but I hope he stays active in the sim/community and builds a great player. 14. Jeffrenomitsu The 3rd - @Jeffie43 - hedgehog caught a body with this one. Youngster who can do graphics and seems to have no life cuz he playing league all the fucking time. Typically successful recipe for a sim leaguer. This is another pick where it could POSSIBLY be a lick, if I didn't care about maintaining good ratios, but he's like 15 or some shit, so who knows what kind of dumb shit he may do and go inactive/retire early/etc. Good luck Jeffie, keep working on your graphics man, you've got talent. BUST. 15. Gabriel Akerstrom - @Mason - Don't know him. Wish him luck. Jubo07 picked him, so could definitely be a success story. There's too many teams in the VHL now, I can't do 15 fucking picks every off-season. This guy also got drafted above me in the VHLM dispersal draft, so you know I'm salty about that. BUST. 16. Isabella Campbell - @Banackock - 16 picks? Fuck me. Here's a GM drafting their player to their team. Ya love to see it. Banackock is a controversial, but successful, VHLer. Gets more hate than credit he deserves. I'll honor him with LICK status, as I think his player will probably turn out good and will be an asset for SEA at 16th overall. There you have it, another VHL draft and another surplus of BUSTS (12) with a sprinkle of LICKS (4). Thanks for reading, see you all next season when L and R should feature in BUST or LICK S75 Edition. Good luck to all the draftees in their VHL careers!!!!
  9. Anyone else hate gimmick player names?
  10. 1. What do you think of the new forum. Already seeing a lot of broken things. Sharing a post URL in particular pissed me off. The text box does seem more responsive and not as glitchy though, so if that's actually the case, it's a fair trade-off for me. 2. What do you do in the offseason Usually compete for a cup, but with Davos I problem drink and abuse drugs.... Oh, the question is off-ssn not playoff time. I usually do a touch of research for my seasonal BUST OR LICK article. 3. Who do you think will go first in the draft Aloe Dear aka Renomitsu. Seems like a lock to me. Good luck to him, swell guy. 4. Give a criticism of Gustavs management Doesn't consult his players, and in particular, senior-sim-league players, on potential moves or plans 5. I was going to put, give a complement to Gustav but who wants that... So if you were to trade yourself where would you go and what would you want in return. I'd trade Jaguar to Vancouver because he can't actually play for them and Beaviss would probably give up the most in return for a retired player. 6. Why does Gustav not do press conferences I think he's busy with work or school or some other bullshit. IDK probably actually just lazy.
  11. Jolly good show @OrbitingDeath
  12. Sign the GOAT of VHFL up automatically imo. I shouldn't have to post.
