    1) What VHL team is your favorite? Who are you hoping to get drafter by? (if you're already drafted: What do you wish to accomplish your first year in the VHL?)

    2) With the VHL draft coming up, what do you have to say to the VHL scouts? (if you're already drafted: Is there anything you wish you did differently before your draft?)

    3) What does your ideal Halifax alternate jersey look like?

    4) We've been able to maintain a spot at the middle of the pack, what do you think it would take for us to take a leap to towards the top?

    5) What is your player usually doing during their day off?

    6) Who do you model your player after?

     

    1) Don’t have a favourite team. Would just like to be drafted and hopefully whoever drafts me has a team with good chemistry and tons of fun.

     

    2) I’m a dedicated, max TPE earner type player who will give you plenty of offence.

     

    3) probably something simple, white based, big Hali logo

     

    4) maintain our current good run of play and have a few hot streaks. We aren’t that far out of a top 3 position.

     

    5) likes to relax outside of hockey. Enjoys good relationships and team building.

     

    6) Auston Matthews

    This is correct. I had 2 top players sitting at the cap who were looking ineligible. Apologies for cutting you but I have to do whats best for the team.

     

    No one switched into Canada that I know of. The reason for the messy roster change was poor communication and the sheet needing updated.

     

    Haha it’s all good.. I was mostly just complaining for something to write about ? I didn’t expect to make the team in the first place so all is good ??

    Should the Lottery be Changed?

    Back in my day, every VHL member selected a 3-digit number, and a weekly draw (every mag edition drop) had someone do a randomizer of 0-1000, and award a prize if it hit someone's 3-digit number.

     

     

    Basically there was pretty much only like 1-2 wins per season, but that system IMO was better than the current one.

     

    I like this.

    Should just enforce League penalties for spammers (aka money/TPE lost or player suspensions) 

     

    In major sports (NHL included) players get suspended by teams/league for off ice shenanigans.

     

    The real problem is there are people who spam this making the lottery a problem (aka #FIXTHELOTTERY). 

     

    Now you don’t have to go approve all posts... just watch for anyone obviously spamming. Much easier to enforce.

    Imagine the excitement and pure joy of being selected to represent your country on the greatest stage of your sport.  Imagine the heartbreak when your country stabs you in the back by reneging on their commitment to you just because some other jokes decided they were from a different country after all... as if their parents had screwed up their birth certificates or something.  

     

    That’s where Trevor Van Lagen stands after being one of two cuts to the team Canada roster after the team had made its selection. Blame the GM? No. Blame the game? Yeah. Not only was it allowed for everyone to switch their country but it was encouraged and promoted. Do we want all equal teams or do we want to simulate a real world hockey tournament?

     

    What would I have done if I was GM of a country and others were trying to get in to steal roster spots from my fellow countrymen?

     

    “I would build a wall—and nobody builds walls better than me, believe me—and I build them very inexpensively. I would build a great, great wall on all our borders and I would make all the other wanna be hockey countries pay for that wall. Mark my words.”

     

    End rant. 

     

    RJ Lloris Biography [2/2]

    in Archived Career Tasks

    Posted

    Review: Great backstory for this bio! Definitely get a good feel for his life growing up and how he transitioned into hockey and eventually the VHL.  

    A few sentences should have had periods where there were commas as they were multiple sentences merged into one but the bio has good flow to it so still an easy read.

    Good job!

    1. 20 games into the season, who do you think our biggest rival is this season?

    2. The leader in points for the team is tied between Gaudette and Axelson, do you think it's going to be a tie until the end of the season or someone is going to run away from the other?

    3. What is your personal goal for the rest of the season?

    4. How do you think the team chemistry is this season?

    5. What attribute(s) do you plan to focus on improving?

    6. What's your favorite part of the VHLM?

     

    1. There seems to be an obvious dislike for Mexico but that may be true game wide. No real rivals yet I’d say.

     

    2. I would say Axelson will lead our team by the end of the year.

     

    3. Top 3 in scoring on the team. Point per game rookie season.

     

    4. Chemistry is alright. Been a bit of line juggling trying to get it better.

     

    5. Mostly my scoring.

     

    6. Favourite part is how much there is to do throughout each week. Keeps everyone involved.
