Congratulations!

Legion for life!

I am grateful for this opportunity to continue working in Toronto! Thank you to @Moon for allowing me the chance to prove myself in the VHL, as well as @animal74 and @v.2 for helping get to this point. All of you have been in this league far longer than I have, and it's great to have your knowledge to learn from. I also want to thank @Dadam30 for the training in Saskatoon last season, that experience was invaluable. Now, let's all go win another Cup together!

Welcome to the league!

Welcome back to the VHL!

Halfway There A look back and forward at the midway point of Harry Callahan's VHL career It's been a fun and enjoyable journey in the VHL so far as I begin my fourth season in the big league, and my seventh overall. I've now been a part of the VHL for more than a year (started in March of 2023), and I only feel my joy for the league growing. Harry Callahan joined the Toronto Legion in S91, and had both the blessing and the curse of winning a Continental Cup in his first season. It was such a blessing to win right off the hop because there are players who aren't lucky or fortunate enough to win a Cup over their entire career, and Callahan got to experience that as a rookie pitching in on an established contender. Winning that Cup was a dream, but it also came with the curse of trying to chase that dream without realization over the following two seasons. It was a mixed bag of success in S92 and S93, with S92 seeing a weaker regular season and stronger postseason, and S93 seeing a fairly dominant regular season followed by a colossal disappointment of a postseason. Callahan has grown from a smaller support contributor in his rookie season to a solid member of the core, one who held a slight edge to lead the team in scoring in S93. Entering this upcoming season, the Legion are still in position to be a team that can compete for a title. Callahan has had the good fortune of becoming a leader in the Legion locker room, having worn an 'A' for the past two seasons. The hope over the final four seasons of his career is to continue to be a leader in the room that is looked at to set an example for the team, as well as attempt to reach the summit of the VHL again and be a multi-Cup winning Champion before retirement. Continuing to grow in the statistics department is a priority for Callahan as well, having made the jump to the top 10 in the VHL in points last season. Entering what will be a prime season for Callahan, he has designs on challenging for the league lead in points this season. Off the ice, Callahan has entered the management side of the game. Following a Founder's Cup title as an Assistant GM for the Saskatoon Wild last season, Callahan will make the move to become a player and Assistant General Manager for the Toronto Legion this season in hopes of helping in all ways possible to continue to improve the Legion organization.

1. Probably Seattle, just a hunch. 2. I think that we should be trying to stay competitive every season. We have the luxury of having a lot of very high TPE players, and it would be a waste to not push to win with them. 3. I had the unique spot of not really being able to earn TPE at the end of the season with the salary bracket, so I dialled it back for a week or two. Back in the saddle again, and it's go time for the off-season grind! 4. That's the million dollar question, isn't it? How to fit all the puzzle pieces together in a way that works for everybody and keeps us competitive this season. 5. Yep! Draft interviews have gone out, the responses so far have been fun to read. Looking forward to adding new members to the Legion family. 6. Ugh, how long do you have? Knew that Keefe was going to be the fall guy for the Shanascam, although he somehow escapes any consequence for his decade of relative failure. I think that it's beyond time to move on from Marner this off-season, but getting him to waive his NMC will be difficult and probably results in a lesser return in a trade. At this point just trade him to get his money off the cap and get him to a market that he can handle. Otherwise, I'm sure there will be tinkering, but not much large change.

Definitely a good job to apply for, go help defend a title in Saskatoon!

I have a 2015 Equinox.

Wow, it's pretty cool to even receive a vote for this!!

Saskatoon Wild Press Conference - Week Ending May 5 A new week, and new questions from the media to answer! Here are your questions for this week: 1. After a tough start to our series against Mississauga, we're now up 2-0 on Halifax in the Semi-Finals. What has gone right for us so far, and what do we have to continue to do to win this series? 2. Have you been as disappointed in the first round of the NHL playoffs as I have? 1 sweep, 6 series at 3-1, and 1 series at 2-1 so far doesn't scream the type of drama that I love in the playoffs. 3. How do you get out of a scoring slump when you're in one? 4. You're trapped in a locked room for a week, and can bring one movie in with you to watch. What movie are you picking? 5. This is likely the last or second last Press Conference of the season with the playoffs winding down. I always try and split my questions between team/VHL content and random personal questions, and I'd like to know which your preference is. What types of questions over this season have been your favourite? 6. As the season winds to a close, and most of you will take the next step in your careers to the VHLE or VHL next season, what has been your favourite part of playing for the Saskatoon Wild this season?

How did we not even get a day to fill these out?

Saskatoon Wild Press Conference - Week Ending April 28 A new week, and new questions from the media to answer! Here are your questions for this week: 1. The end of the regular season is here! How do you feel about your performance this season? 2. Which team do we have to keep our eye on in the playoffs? 3. Which series has been the best in the NHL playoffs so far? 4. Describe your perfect date. 5. What is the most important thing that a team needs to have success on a deep playoff run? 6. Why is it that the second movie in a trilogy usually ends up being the best one?

It's been a phenomenally successful breakout season for Diego Machado this year with the Toronto Legion, one that has helped propel the Legion to the top of the Conference and League with just 6 games to go. Machado had been a solid contributor for Toronto in his first two seasons, the first of which was the Continental Cup year. In that season, Machado had 18 goals and 32 assists for 50 points, a solid contribution for a rookie in the VHL (he finished 7th in rookie scoring that season). Into his sophomore year, he sought to be a bigger contributor to the offense in Toronto, and achieved just that. He finished his second season with 25 goals and 37 assists for 62 points, establishing a new career high in all three categories. Year over year, Machado saw a 39% increase in goal scoring, a 16% increase in assists, and a 24% increase in points. Those were all solid gains, but paled in comparison to the huge jump that followed. Diego Machado seeked to take on a larger role in the offense this season in Toronto, and has managed to do so successfully in all areas. With 6 games left to play, he has already eclipsed those career highs wildly, sitting at 42 goals and 53 assists for 95 points. With the season incomplete, he stands to continue to add to those massive numbers before it ends. From last season's career bests, he has already seen a 68% increase in goal scoring, 43% increase in assists, and a 53% increase in points. All of those statistical jumps should have him well in consideration for the Dustin Funk Trophy for Most Improved Player in the VHL this season, and it would be an honour well earned.

Welcome to the league, Samsayz I-Smell!

Welcome back to the beginning!

Kobe Johnson was drafted 22nd overall by the Toronto Legion in S86 following a successful S85 in Las Vegas with the Aces. Johnson returned to Vegas the following season, and exploded offensively, making the jump from 23 to 94 points as a sophomore in the VHLM, and earning a promotion the following season to the VHLE's Geneva Rush. Johnson maintained steady offensive numbers in Geneva for three seasons from S87-89, posting point totals of 71, 86, and 86. For S90, Johnson was caught in the VHLE's roster shuffling after the contraction of 2 teams. That led to Johnson playing in Vasteras down the lineup, only amassing 16 points in the S90 season. In the following season, the opportunity presented itself to play up the lineup again, and Kobe responded with a 67 point season, coming close to averaging a point per game. The S91 season would prove to be Johnson's last in the VHLE, as he got the call to come up to the VHL's Toronto Legion, where he spent the S92 posting 22 points (9 G, 13 A) in 72 games. That brings us to this season, where Johnson has already set new career highs in multiple statistical categories. In 55 games this season, Kobe has already tied last seasons goal total with 9, and has surpassed last seasons assist and point totals with 16 and 25 respectively. Johnson is also more involved offensively through shooting, having increased his shot total from 96 last season to 127 and counting this season. So far, new career bests have been set in assists, points, plus/minus, shots, and shot blocks. He is a goal away from a career best in the VHL, as well as being 2 game winning goals, 2 powerplay goals, and 8 hits away from besting those categories as well. These last 17 games being productive will go a long way to helping set highs in those categories as well.

Welcome to the VHL!

The greater good.
