  1. Do you even sleep?

    I think all the updaters are damn awesome, and some of them are kind of "big names" around here too, but how often do we throw around @rjfryman or Julius Freeman?

    I'd wager not too often.
     

    So this is a small tribute to the good work - and over time - you and the other updaters are and have been providing us with (good) service.


    I feel like I also have to mention Velevra, McWolf, OrbitingDeath, Tagger, .sniffum, esso, tacticalhammer, Advantage and enorama (during my time here, I am sure I have missed some other actives and plenty from the past).


    The point I guess is to herald the unsung heroes a little bit, and how the whole league really is team work. But this to me is what VHL is also about, those steadfast guys behind the scenes that makes all this work. Like basically all of the VHLM GM's, Josh and the IT team, GustavMattias who seems to permeate the place (we're not moving away from "unknowns" to those who flaunt a bit more), Bana and all the other personalities that are too many to mention (that would be a cheap article to post though). @DMaximus who shares his on the side creations. That's all just so nice.


    Let me restart again with that "point" thing, maybe the point I am reaching for is that despite tired 4chan trolling by people who still live in 2005,  the "slurs" recently, and all that - this is a pretty decent community and I am happy I found it.

  3. @Corco, AGM for Saskatoon Wild here, EDIT: I missed your accept post, but the offer below still stands.

    Whichever team you choose don't hesitate to contact us with questions about strategizing your player, how the league and TPE earning works, etc. Hope you'll have fun here!

  4. The snow you describe is just like where I live in Sweden, it's only early January everything settles down a bit and you kind of can count on the weather to be stable (cold) for about 2-3 months. Half-melting snow is the worst.

    I spent a week that included Remembrance Day in Manchester a few years ago, it was quite the thing, poppies and all. Especially going to the pubs later in the evening, it's not only USA that has forgotten war veterans anymore.

  5. @InciteHysteria if you do stay for more than two weeks :) we'd love to have you in Saskatoon Wild, we're probably the favorites this season and if nothing else we'll have a grand ol' playoff run. We're somewhat stacked so can't promise max ice time from the start, but you know how it goes, it's pretty easy to work your way up in the lines on most teams.

  6. @Radcow, if you check the teams I think you will find that Saskatoon Wild is perfectly placed for an amazing season this year. So please consider us, and no matter which team you choose you're welcome to contact us via PM or through Discord with any questions that you may have.

    Have a chat with Peace as to minutes, 69 seems excessive as we will try to avoid overtime. :)

  7. It's obvious what you have to talk about, same questions (more or less) that I offered to Tate.

    1. The draft, initial impressions? It kind of broke expectations at pick 3 and 253 TPE Okada slid down to 9th.
    2. Some trades are probably still going on, but looking at the teams what are your predictions for the season?
    3. Most improved team?
    4. Most weakened team compared to last season?
    5. Malmö isn't really looking anemic in any way, but perhaps could use a few more players? Where's the weaknesses and strengths, what need to be improved for this or next season?

  8. 1. We just completed our draft - what advice or tips do you have for our incoming rookies?  

    I guess a few of them are kind of veterans. But generally, make sure to have fun, and ask questions - we have a lof of experience and knowledgeable people on the team.
     

    2. Aleksander Rodriguez left our team for Malmo this offseason - what parting words or wishes do you have for him?
    Good luck, sad that he can't be a part of our cup runs that I am certain will happen with in a season or two.

     

    3. Our co-captain Guy LaGrande won Most Improved Player last season - what leap do you expect from him next season?
    I believe he has a good chance to top all defenders in points this season.

     

    4. What does New York have to work on this offseason to push into the playoffs?
    Even more depth perhaps. The lines and players we have are looking good, but to extend depth a bit more can only be helpful.

     

    5. Our young star Lance Flowers won both Rookie of the Year and Top Defensive Defenseman last season - were you surprised?

    Perhaps at the second title, which is very impressive. Rookie of the Year is as impressive but not as surprising.

     

    6. What are your personal goals for next season?
    Get my baseline attributes in order so that I can be truly effective on the blueline both offensively and defensively. I am hoping most of that will be in place by mid-season and also have a plan for end of season and the playoffs.

  9. So I was planning on making a podcast but with video... as it stands I haven't made a podcast at all. But I thought it would be a waste to not at least share this.

    Maybe in the future this will become a video podcast with some cheesy 80's graphics in neon.

    Behold Elmebeck (Lidström) to the Americans' (Vancouver Canucks) goal horn!
