  1. SAMSUNG S9 just a regular smart phone. I even did my 1200 word biography on my phone lol
  2. Who is Jubis ? Intro Not the player but the man behind the mask. I'd say the man behind the computer but I dont have one. Yes every article, career task and graphic I have done has been 100% by mobile phone. So who is Jubis the VHL member ? I'll put together some questions and hopefully they shed some light on who I am. I know people keep themselves pretty private online but will do my best to open up a bit. No credit card information or social insurance numbers will be revealed. Where are you from? Well I've lived all over Canada it seems. I'm from a small french acadian community in south western Nova-Scotia. I honestly loved growing up in Nova-Scotia and it will always be home. I visit every year. In my early 20s there was just a lack of work in my area other than the fishing industry. I was a plumber by trade. So at age 21 I packed up my car and left for Alberta with my brother and two best friends. We were in search of better jobs that were just lacking in Nova-Scotia. I ended working in Alberta for 5 years. For the Albertans in the forum that know the oil sands. I worked at Imperial Oil's site Kearl with an operations type job for those 5 years. Lived in Calgary for year at one point during that span too. I eventually met my wife both of us on vacation trips down south in the Caribbean. I eventually moved to Toronto with her. Got married have two kids now. I've kind of lived all over the GTA but live in Etobicoke now. How did you join the VHL? Some people have speculated that I have friends in the VHL, that I know in real life but this is not the case. I actually wasnt even officially recruited by anyone. I didn't even search for the league on google or anything. I had no idea these types of leagues even existed. I had been playing a Hockey Agent app based game on my phone and saw the creators of the game recommended the VHL. If someone on this site created the hockey agent game or have affiliation you technically recruited me. (Potential TPE for someone?). Once I checked out the VHL site I was more than intrigued I was hooked. I have loved statistics even as young as 10 years old. Let's just say at one point you wouldn't have wanted to play NHL trivia against me. Are you experienced in online sim leagues? Like I said above I didn't even know they existed. I have zero experience when it comes to sim leagues. I joined like the first week of September just over two months ago. I am a 1st generation player at its finest. Everyone has got to start somewhere tho right ? What sets me apart is how competitive I am. It took me until about the first week of October to learn how to be a top earner. I sucked at doing graphics and definitely didn't dare do any writing. Once I started I was addicted to earning TPE. I did my career tasks and even started writing. I think there is a very good chance I out earned everyone in my s69 draft class during that span. Say start of October till last week. I went from bottom of the draft to a 1st round pick. It's not cause I'm good I just put in the work. Do you love hockey? Yes I do! Played ice hockey from age 5 to 21 but stopped playing after junior. I started playing ball hockey here in Ontario. On my 3rd season of that and just love it. I've also bought the EA sports Nhl games 20 years straight. Since living in Ontario I've attended a bunch of NHL games at the Air Canada centre/Scotiabank Arena. Including two playoff games. Fun facts Age: 28 Favourite color: Blue Nhl team: Die hard Boston Bruins fan Coffee or tea: Coffee 2 milk no sugar Ps4 or xbox: PS4 user: jubinator22 CHEERS,
  3. @gorlab this was just good for a laugh. Dont think anyone is actually mad lol
  4. F-Kronos Bailey F- Mikko Aaltonen @KC15
  5. Come on @gorlab you literally showed zero love for 1st gen players. Most new players will use a name similar to their username for their first player. You licked established members and busted on all the new guys/girls. Oooh that sounds dirty
  6. Kind words thank you. Honestly was scared to do writing tasks
  7. Love the article. I saved the graphic because it's too nice
  8. 11 points 37 pim in 3 games. I'll take it
  9. 2. What was your favorite toy growing up? Easy. Super Nintendo i received for 5th birthday. DK country 1 3. If you could time travel, when would you go? I would travel to Saturday, November 9th 2019. To save Don Cherry's career. 4. What personality trait has gotten you in the most trouble? My temper. I'll bottle up then eventually snap. 5. What was the best piece of advice you've received? "You miss 100% of the shots you dont take" Wayne Gretzky. Can be applied to all aspects of life. 6. If you could pick a new name for yourself, what name would you pick? Kidney Sauceby 10. Would you rather be uncontrollably laughing for the rest of your life, or uncontrollably crying? Ok both sound horrible to be honest. No one wants to be sad so let's go with laughing!
  10. I'm taking this 1st gen to the HOF !

  12. RJ Jubis Biography EARLY LIFE RJ Jubis was born in Yarmouth, Nova-Scotia, Canada. A small town with a population of just over 6,000 people. He was first pushed into the sport of hockey by his father. They skated on their shallow pond behind their house every winter. Even at a very early age he dreamed of playing hockey for a living. Like many kids RJ would imitate hockey stars he had seen on tv. He stepped onto the ice at the young age of 5. The location was University Sainte Anne's hockey arena in Church point, Nova-Scotia. Mixed with the 19 other skaters RJ Jubis did not stand out. Considered a late bloomer, things stayed this way for a long time. As he got older he failed to make the Atom and Peewee Rep teams for four straight years. This did not stop Jubis from practicing his shot for hours a day in the garage of his family home. He would shoot with a shooter tutor covering the net. RJ would not stop practicing until he scored 10 in a row. TEENAGE YEARS Fast forward through many road trips, old icy cold arenas and Tim Horton's pit stops. Tournaments where you may play 5 games in 2 days. On road trips the team would gather in hotel hallways to play mini stick hockey. These were Jubis's greatest memories at the time. Now in his final Bantam year at age 14. RJ Jubis will begin to have his breakout year. He was playing in SEDMHA, an international minor hockey tournament played in Halifax, Nova-Scotia. He scored an outstanding 23 goals and had 6 assists in 6 games played. Leading his team to an Odyssey Championship with a 6-0-0 record. After winning the championship he was then contacted shortly after by the South shore Mustangs. The Mustangs had high hopes of him joining their team. They play in the Nova Scotia Major Midget Hockey League or NSMMHL. The same league that has rostered the likes of NHL superstars Sidney Crosby and Brad Marchand. RJ Jubis played two outstanding years for the Mustangs. He was able to play in 141 games and scored 186 goals ,112 assists for 298 points. JUNIORS He was then drafted by the Halifax Mooseheads of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League or QMJHL. His first season with the mooseheads was in 2017-2018. He struggled to find his speed and seemed to be a step slower then his opponents. He dressed for 56 games in his rookie season mostly on the 2nd line and scored 27 goals and had 14 assists for 41 points. With his hockey future in the balance he knew he needed a change. The following summer he immediately changed up his off season routine. He stopped attending summer Bbq's and parties with his friends. RJ began training daily. He wanted to lean out and add a lot of muscle to his frame. Once out of shape at 205 Lbs RJ Jubis was determined to put in the work. By the end of summer 2018 he was now walking around at a much stronger faster weight of 215 Lbs. He entered the Mooseheads training camp a man on a mission. He earned a spot on the top line out of training camp and never looked back. The 2018-2019 season was his best yet. He played in 65 games and scored 69 goals. This was just 2 goals shy of the Mooseheads record of 71 goals held by Ladislav Nagy back in 1998. The Mooseheads were lucky enough to host the Memorial cup that year. RJ Jubis was not able to finish the season on a high note tho as Halifax lost in the final to Rouyn-Noranda. THE INJURY RJ Jubis was 40 games into what looked like his career year with the Mooseheads. He had scored 46 goals and was gunning for the all time goals in a single season record. Then the injury happened. The Mooseheads were on the road against the Charlottetown Islanders. Down 3-2 in the 3rd period with 12 mins left. The Mooseheads were on the powerplay. Jubis the big body was playing the front net position. They cycled the puck around for the 1st minute. Then Jake Ryczek has an open lane and takes a bomb of a slapshot. The shot hits Jubis directly in the face and he collapses to the ice. The medical staff rushes to the ice. Immediately it is evident that the puck hit Jubis in the eye. The crowd was standing and the arena was silent. RJ Jubis just was not moving with a pool of blood next to him. It took a few minutes for RJ to gain the strength to get up and on to his feet. He was then rushed to the nearby hospital in Charlottetown. Emergency surgery was required to repair a damaged retina. Jubis had a lengthy recovery ahead of him. He missed the remainder of the season. This injury had Pro Scouts beginning to look the other way. It took 5 long months but RJ Jubis fully recovered. He gained his vision back in his injured eye. Even though he was fully recovered no pro team wanted to touch him. Jubis once a projected top 10 1st round pick became an undrafted one. THE VHLM Jubis knew after going undrafted that his only way to the pros was through the minor leagues. He started reaching out to teams in the VHLM. The Saskatoon Wild were immediately interested. They signed the 6'4" free agent to a one year deal sight unseen. Jubis was ecstatic because the Wild were willing to take a chance on him. He started the season with something to prove. He was willing to do whatever it took to get potentially drafted by a VHL team. The hockey gods had other plans in mind as nothing seemed to go Jubis's way. Halfway into the season Jubis had scored only 6 goals in 44 games played. The possibility of a VHL team wanting to draft him was growing thin. He was a late round pick at best. That is if he even got drafted at all. Saskatoon coaching staff decided to get Jubis to centre the first line. Playing alongside star forward Ondrej Ohdraka jump started Jubis's season. Jubis scored 23 goals through the final 28 games. This propelled him up the draft rankings and essentially took him from zero to hero. VHL DRAFT As the VHL draft approached it was easily visible that no player in this seasons draft had climbed the rankings as fast as Jubis. Jubis was now projected to be drafted anywhere from 7th-15th pick in the 1st round. Out of nowhere Jubis was off the board early. The Calgary Wranglers selected him with their 5th overall pick. RJ Jubis was beyond excited. Getting to start the season for a wonderful organization like Calgary. The Wranglers showed Jubis that they truly had faith in him by selecting him so early. Jubis has realized his dream and has become a true professional hockey player. RJ Jubis is expected to have a long a prosperous career for Calgary. Some hockey insiders think he might just be a few seasons away from cracking the Wranglers 1st line. Only time will tell where this story goes.
  13. Jubis Drafted by Calgary RJ Jubis , LW Saskatoon Wild 72GP 29G 33A 62PTS +4 RJ Jubis was just selected 5th overall by the Calgary Wranglers in the 1st round of the VHL Draft. Jubis was projected to go anywhere from 7th to 15th overall in the draft. The Calgary Wranglers were one busy team in the 1st round also selecting Okada 9th overall and Rice 11th overall. Q: What was going through your head when you found out you were selected 5th overall ? A: I was shocked and in disbelief. I still feel like I'm dreaming. I'm so happy to be drafted by Calgary.The Wranglers Gm had contacted me shortly before the draft took place. Explained their intentions were to reach for me with an early pick. Q: Do you think you will enjoy playing in the City of Calgary? A: Short answer is yes 100%. Any organization that has this much belief in me makes it so welcoming to play here. The Wranglers truly believe I'm going to be a great player. I just have to work hard and prove them right. My dream is to win here. , RJ Jubis

    The amount of layers and attention to detail that has been put into this is out of this world! Great work! This on another level vs other player cards.
  15. Far from that. You were always extremely helpful as a GM. I could have always asked if I was unsure if I was able to do the tasks. In the end it all worked out ?
  16. I guess you're right. 1st gen s69 players are the only ones who would really struggle with this. We are too new to know what the normal career tasks are and what new ones would look like. I'm not actually still upset. Just thought the guidelines should be clearer. Plus I needed a topic to earn my 2 TPE. Like I said above I'm addicted to earning TPE.
  17. ISSUE WITH CAREER POINT TASKS Ok so my issue is with the "Junior review" and "Prospect Scouting Report" career tasks. A month ago I read through the guidelines for the junior review. Completed it and tried to claim the task but it was rejected. I was told it was for s70 players and newer. I am a 1st gen s69 player. I was frustrated but figured I could save some of my work for my biography someday. Fastforward to this week and I am now fully addicted to earning TPE. I am always trying to find more ways to gain. So I decided to do the Prospect Scouting Report career task. I read the guidelines which stated: " to be completed during your VHL draft season or the season following that". I think great this fits my players timeline perfectly. Nowhere does it say the task is only for s70 players or newer. So of course again my claim is rejected. I put a lot of effort into it with each and every Pro and Con had a relatable picture attached. Luckily this time I was persuaded to use it for my media spot this week. I would like to do the Rookie Experience task when the time comes but I am afraid the guidelines are unclear. It would somehow end up being for s70 and newer players once again. I recommend as a solution just simply update the guidelines. Any career tasks that are just for S70 players or newer just say so in the guidelines. This would save the next schmuck like me from doing tasks they can not claim.
  18. #1. At first I was very unsure on just how to earn TPE. I slowly learned how. I've gained confidence creating graphics and now am writing a bit. One frustrating thing is the Career point tasks nowhere does it say in the fine print certain tasks are for s70 players or newer. I've done two career tasks that were time frame accurate for by player but were rejected due to my player being s69. So work completed but no tpe. This needs to be fixed. Say you open " Prospect scouting report" it should say in the guidelines s70 or newer. So guys like me dont waste our time completing these career tasks. Beyond frustrated when it comes to this. #2. I am just a member of this league. No intentions of trying out another league. Im content here. #3. I was released by the Saskatoon Wild so I'm guess I can mention ex teammates or ex management. 100% @Elmebeck he has answered more of my questions than I could even keep track of. @Tagger joined the Wild late in the season but he has been very helpful sharing his vast knowledge. #4. I'm sitting below 200 TPE. I'm going to make the jump after next season and should be in the 300 tpe range or higher. #5. Scoring my first hatrick was pretty special. #6. The Hectanooga Hooligans from middle of nowhere Nova-Scotia , Canada or the Etobicoke Eclipse in Ontario canada. Logo for hooligans would be a mischievous hooded character. Logo for the Eclipse would be an angry sun.
