  1. Hey, welcome to the league! Just judging from the username, are you a hurricanes fan?
  2. First goal! Disappointing it was in a loss, but still nice to get.
  3. Ive dropped my role as scoring forward and declare myself the toughest enforcer the VHL has ever seen
  4. Alexander pepper @Kekzkrieg
  5. First 2 points! Only took me 8 games lol

  8. 1. I think it’ll probably be Encarnacion or Lahtinen because I’d assume they’ll be getting a lot of ice time for Calgary, and therefore have more chance to make an impact. 2. Gonna say Ike Bennett or Aleelee Kiak 3. I’m guessing some people will have to be shipped out for future assets, as they can’t add more with their cap situation. 6. It has to be Sasakamoose. He didn’t have a bad season last time around, but there’s a ton more potential there. 7. Gustav was a great choice. He helped me a lot in Mississauga and I’m really happy to see him get the promotion. 8. It would be interesting if the rule of a GM being able to claim their own player with a first round pick could be traded. For example, if one GM has a good upcoming player, they could trade a first round pick with the ability to claim their player to another team.
  9. And we're off! The season has began and it is time the S71 draftees prove their worth to all the VHL GMs. I'm personally excited to kick off my VHL career, and to see others kick off their VHLM careers. As always, here are my rankings: Kyl Oferson 1 Roque Davis 1 Erik Killinger - Ola Vikingstad 3 Thomas Landry II 1 Stone Wolski - Jim Bob 2 Hugh Jass - Joakim Bruden - Uhtred - Quite a bit of movement this week, as I'm still getting a feel for this draft. Oferson takes over the number one spot, and Vikingstad moves up three spots. Jim Bob was moved down two spots, but to no fault of his own, earning 30 TPE this past week. I feel like I may have just had him a bit too high last week. Despite this, with how close the top 7 or so picks have been so far in earning rates, he could find himself back up to the top 5 as soon as next week. Stats Once again, there are no stats this week. News - Kyl Oferson and Roque Davis reached the VHLM TPA limit of 250. - Ola Vikingstad and Jim Bob hit 200 TPE this past week. - 33 players were created this week. - Ola Vikingstad earned the most TPE this past week, with a total of 34. Profiles Richard Penisson - C - 86 TPE A player with surprisingly no connections to last season's Dick Cheezy, Penisson has earned pretty nicely since joining the league. With 17 this past week, he has been getting even better as of late. The 16 year old has impressive scoring talent, along with puck skills that make it hard for defenders to predict his next move. He hasn't played his first VHLM game yet, but I am really excited to see how his skills translate onto the ice once his season kicks off. Jeff Blaze - RW - 95 TPE A first-gen player, Blaze has been off to a blazing start. But besides my underwhelming humour, this statement is very much true, due to him earning a minimum of 9 TPE in all of his four full weeks, even reaching 25 one week. The American winger has a heavy shot, and a dangerous top speed. His build is noticeably well-balanced, showing his versatility and his ability to be effective wherever he is played up and down the lineup. If these first few weeks are an indication of things to come, I'm looking forward to seeing them. Xavier leFlamant - RW - 109 TPE A true playmaker, leFlamant possesses vision that not many others do. He is smart with the puck, and has a top tier mind for the game. In terms of his TPE production I would compare him to someone like Leon Gutzwiler, who I covered last season. He doesn't put up a ton of TPE each week, but he is always consistent, and his reliability may cause teams to take interest. Gutzwiler ended up a second round pick, so not too bad a position to be in. He'll definitely be one I'll keep my eye on as the season progresses.

  11. Catching up on my pick - Jet Jaguar
  12. 1. I’d say Davison to Riga, he’s a big name arriving at the same time I am, so hopefully we can both contribute for the team this year. 5. You can’t doubt Seattle getting back to the finals. 6. Pics or it didn’t happen. Must’ve been someone else. 7. Never thought of this before, but it would be fun to see hand passes being allowed but only in the air. You’d just have people jumping up to bat the puck to their teammates and some weird assists. I mean it would be fun for about 2 weeks but it would get old quick. 9. I will become the best crochet player the world has ever seen during this offseason. 10. Larry the lobster

  14. Welcome, everyone! With the draft now past us, and my first S71 Draft Profiles already done, it's time that I reflect on this past season, and most importantly, the draft. I will be looking at who I think could be steals at their positions, and some of the more interesting moments of the draft. After discussing the draft, I'll move on to talk about how great this experience has been, with the draft profiles series and its progression. Anyways, let's move on to my steals; these aren't the players who I think will become the best of the bunch, but who I think were most valuable relative to the slot they were selected. 23 D. Cheezy , TPE: 128 After earning steadily for 12 weeks, one poorly timed week of inactivity may have scared some GMs away from Cheezy, but he has already proven said week was a fluke with an impressive 23 TPE so far this week. Although he is a welfare player, he has proven to be extremely reliable in earning TPE, and while he doesn't have superstar potential, I see his chances of making the VHL as high. To me, this was a good value pick from Toronto that gives them more organizational depth and a player they can count on to eventually find a role on their team. 17 I. Bennett , TPE: 91 Since being drafted, Bennett has already earned 32 TPE. He has consistently put up around 10 to 12 TPE per week prior to the draft, falling behind in total TPE solely because of his late entry into the league. When looking back on this draft, we may be praising Helsinki for making this pick at 17, since his earning rate is up there with some of the first round talent. I think he has a lot of potential, and can't wait to see if he can become one of the best players to come out of this draft. 35 N. Kulikovich , TPE: 69 This one was very interesting to me. In my opinion, Kulikovich was just flat out better than some of the names ahead of him. While he did go inactive for two weeks, he did update with 6 TPE prior to the draft. There were entirely inactive players with less TPE that went above him, and that is what makes it puzzling to me why he wasn't an early or even mid third round pick. This week, he has 4 TPE so far as well. I don't necessarily see star potential, but I do think this was a high quality pick for 35th overall. Interesting Moments of The Draft 1. Encarnacion picked #1 A well-deserved title, Edwin THE Encarnacion was crowned the first overall pick of the draft. Shoutout goes to Lahtinen as well for being close behind. 2. Risteneen picked #6 The first first-gen player to be picked, Risteneen was chosen sixth overall to New York 3. Davos BPA's After acquiring Magnum, Hextall and Wolfe through BPA, all three were dealt to Toronto yesterday. 4. Gutzwiler twins united Selected 16th and 18th overall, Gabriel and Leon Gutzwiler are sure to be happy with landing on the same team. It will be interesting to see each of their progression for New York. My Thoughts Overall, I'm extremely happy with the way this whole season turned out, covering the draft. I started this series as something I thought would be cool for a quick 2 TPE every week, and it has turned into somewhat of my identity in the league. It's been fun making the articles, keeping everything updated, and making improvements to the series along the way. The reception of the draft profiles series has been great, and I've gotten so much support from plenty of members with and without draft eligible players. I'd like to thank everyone who's supported it, because it's helped turn point tasks into point activities for me, and now I'm always excited to work on my next article. Now, it's time I fully shift my focus onto S71 prospects. I wish all of the S70 draftees luck, and I'll have an article around the trade deadline next season with an update on all of their progress to that point. Stay active, and have fun!
  15. Well, this is new! The day has finally come that I move on from covering the S70 draft, and start anew with S71. I'd like to thank all the people who tuned in for my draft profiles for all of last season, and for those who were drafted, congratulations. If any of the S71 prospects are new here and would like to know how this series works, it is divided into four parts: - Rankings: I give my current top 10 prospects, and note any movement within it from week to week. - Stats: I provide a table of the top 10 in points, goals, assists, and save percentage among the draft class (not included in this edition as the season has not started) - News: I look at important events that happened concerning S71 draftees. - Profiles: I profile 3 draftees, looking at their strengths, weaknesses, TPE earning, and stats. I'd say that pretty much sums it up. Before I reveal my first rankings of the season, you can check out the full rankings and TPE earning rates so far among S71 draftees on my spreadsheet. Here's the link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Z3UmjHIkmoBNTRdw8dgQdp4kOVhVLVRgPADZOndKJUY/edit?usp=sharing Here are my first rankings of S71! Roque Davis Kyl Oferson Erik Killinger Thomas Landry II Jim Bob Stone Wolski Ola Vikingstad Hugh Jass Joakim Bruden Uhtred Davis sits atop the mountain in week one, and a first-gen, Joakim Bruden, also makes the top 10. News - Roque Davis, Kyl Oferson, Erik Killinger and Stone Wolski each hit 200 TPE this past week. - Alex Burrows hit 100 TPE this past week. - Doomsday was hired as a VSN Writer this past week! Congrats to him! - There were 48 players created this past week. - Roque Davis earned the most TPE this past week with 34. - Erik Killinger was selected 1st overall in the VHLM Dispersal Draft! Profiles Kyl Oferson - C - 232 TPE An elite goal scorer, Oferson has produced goals upon goals in his short time in the VHLM so far. With 9 goals in 14 playoff games to end off last season, the center has just started to unlock his potential, and we are all sure to witness it this season with San Diego. On top of his nose for the net, he possesses effortless control with the puck and a strong sense of defensive awareness, which is crucial in being a true number one center. Oferson has earned an impressive 156 TPE over his first 5 full weeks, averaging out at about 31 per week. I expect great things to come for the newly drafted Marlin, and think he is definitely one to watch as the season progresses. Alex Burrows - RW - 134 TPE Alex Burrows is not your typical hockey player. Standing at an unusual 5'5", the Canadian winger more than makes up for his size with hockey IQ and some untapped offensive potential. He is a responsible two way winger who shows an aptitude for scoring as well. With his well balanced build, he can contribute wherever it is needed. Last season, his offensive production was lacking though, to say the least. He did not record a single point in 22 regular season games, and followed it up with just 1 in the playoffs. However, I think those numbers will be a distant memory for Burrows after this season, because he definitely has all the tools to be successful, on top of a nice work ethic to begin his career. He has earned 76 TPE in his first 5 full weeks, averaging out as 15 per week. Uhtred - RW - 168 TPE A Founders Cup winner with Saskatoon last season, Uhtred was placed in a smaller role that didn't allow him to maximize his abilities. Now, he will be one of San Diego's better players and assumably get more ice time. With this opportunity, I think the 18 year old will see his already solid stats boost nicely. With 11 points in 14 playoff games, he provided us with a hint of what he could do in a bigger role this year. Uhtred has dynamic skating ability as well as puck skills that combine nicely with each other. He can also shoot the puck. Aside from one week in which he earned 6 TPE, he has earned nicely as well, with a total of 101 through his first 5 full weeks, 20 on average every week. I hope you all enjoyed, and that you come back next week for an update!
  16. Congrats man! Can’t wait to see how great your VHL career will be!
  17. You were actually in part 4 as well! It’s pretty outdated now but here’s the link:
  18. Well, here we are. After following the S70 VHL draft this entire season, it feels weird to say it's actually here. Nevertheless, it's time I reveal my final rankings. I'll be showing my top 24 prospects, which would make up the first two rounds. It's important that I clarify that this is not a mock draft, it is who I believe are the best picks at each spot without any connection to the teams making the selection. Hopefully you all enjoy. #1 - Edwin THE Encarnacion - 366 TPE: No trend, Low risk, High potential Edwin THE Encarnacion has been a player who has spent most of his time at number one in my rankings, and never falling out of the top two. He has consistently earned high amounts of TPE, never really slowing down much. With 75 TPE in his last 3 full weeks, it is clear that he is not taking his foot off the gas at all. It is also notable that he is the only player in this draft to earn every possible capped TPE. Encarnacion is a star player at both ends of the rink, being the two way defenseman that so many teams covet. He put up a mind boggling 122 points in the regular season, and had a +91 rating. I know he was on Saskatoon, but that is incredible. In the playoffs, he led all S70 draftees with 24 points in 14 games, ultimately winning the Founders Cup. I expect Encarnacion to become a star. #2 - Mikko Lahtinen - 342 TPE: No trend, Low risk, High potential Lahtinen is the other half of the top two that has never once been broken in my rankings, and for good reason. He is a speedy centerman with top tier goal scoring ability, and he showcased that with his 44 goals this season. He, like Encarnacion, has consistently earned high amounts of TPE, never once letting up. The Finn earns a minimum of 10 capped TPE per week for his jobs as a commissioner and simmer, so that further lowers the risk of taking him. Another key piece in the cup winning Wild, he put up 18 points in 14 games to help his team win it all. I could see a team opting to choose Lahtinen first overall because of his potential as a number one centerman, and I think they would be very happy with what they got. There is no right or wrong pick concerning the top two. #3 - Odin Omdahl - 302 TPE: No trend, Low risk, High potential Here's a fun fact: Since joining the league, Odin Omdahl has earned the most TPE out of anyone in this draft (excluding this week, as it is incomplete). Not Encarnacion, not Lahtinen. Although I think they have the advantage right now, my bold prediction for this draft is that Omdahl becomes the best player to come out of it. He is the perfect powerplay defenseman, with a cannon of a shot from the point which scored him 48 goals this season. This is not to take away from his defensive game which is by no means lagging behind. The 21 year old blocked 102 shots this season alone, and posted a +48 rating with Mexico City. Omdahl is sure to become a great player for the team that drafts him. #4 - Jacques Lafontaine - 258 TPE: No trend, Low risk, High potential The top goalie in the draft, Lafontaine led Saskatoon to their dominating Founders Cup victory. He posted a near impossible 68 wins in 72 games on the season, and a .900 save percentage. Characterized by great reaction time and rebound control, the Canadian netminder has a calming presence in the net that instills confidence in his teammates shift after shift. His TPE earning has been steady, and he has earned most of it in the form of capped TPE. This means that he takes care of his weekly tasks extremely well, but doesn't necessarily make the most of TPE opportunities on the forum, like theme week for example. Despite this, Lafontaine is still an elite goalie with a bright future ahead of him. #5 - Chad Magnum - 229 TPE: Trending up, Low risk, High potential Magnum has been earning TPE at magnificent rates since joining the league, being our first first-gen player on the rankings. This means he started with just 30 TPE in mid November, and is already catching up to the top prospects. He led the draft class in TPE earned in a single week on three separate occasions, and has definitely earned his spot on the list. The big center put up a fair 25 points in 67 games, though preferably those numbers would be higher. He did show his ability to hit like a truck, with 149 total this season. His build is based on a high energy, hard hitting style of play with some added scoring prowess. He is sure to be one to watch once this draft is all said and done. #6 - Iangenere Risteneen - 212 TPE: No trend, Low risk, High potential Risteneen has shown a lot of potential over the course of this season, earning TPE steadily, and even getting a job as the VHL News Manager. Averaging 24 TPE in his last 5 full weeks, he has proven his dedication to building a top tier player. He scored 39 goals in the regular season, helping the Lynx to a 7th place finish, and demonstrated his ability in all zones, with a +30 rating on top of his remarkable 91 points. The teenager is the top ranked winger on the list, and deservedly so. #7 - Shawn Glade Jr - 245 TPE: Trending down, Moderate risk, High potential These last few weeks before the draft have not worked to Glade Jr's advantage, but he is still 5th in TPE and has shown glimpses of immense potential. After earning 120 TPE across the span of 6 weeks, he fell down to a concerning 16 TPE in his last 3 full weeks. His stats in the regular season were the best among S70 draftees, with 129 points as a defenseman in Ottawa. His defensive stats were also dominant, recording a +22 rating, 145 shot blocks and 112 hits. There is a lot of potential here, and I really hope the American defenseman can make the most of it. #8 - Jaxx Hextall - 186 TPE: Trending up, Moderate risk, High potential Hextall has burst onto the scene lately, earning massive amounts of TPE for the past 3 weeks, 4 if you include this week in which he has already earned 20. He has lightning quick reflexes, and they will only get better with time. He had an .879 save percentage in the playoffs, helping Halifax advance to the second round. The only real concern with Hextall is that hopefully he can keep earning at an elite level, and not fall back into the 8 TPE per week he began with in his career. I believe he will keep up his fantastic work as of late, and become a really good goalie in the VHL in a few seasons. Expect him to be a force next season in the VHLM. #9 - Lewis Dawson - 207 TPE: No trend, Low risk, Moderate potential Lewis Dawson is a player who I think will break out next season if he stays in the VHLM. His offensive stats were acceptable, but this season his offensive tools are sure to shine, and I expect him to be among the league's best. Although his defensive game could use work, only blocking 2 shots all season, his offensive game is more than enough to make up for it. He is a quick skater with brilliant vision and a sneaky good shot. I put moderate potential for him, but he could very well prove me wrong and become a star in the VHL. #10 - Jared Spaz - 165 TPE: No trend, Low risk, High potential Spaz came into the league rather late, and as a first-gen, had a steep hill ahead of him to climb in order to catch up to the top prospects. He has climbed with ease, landing at number ten in my rankings. I think he has a ton of potential, but his TPE suggests that he still needs another season to prepare for the VHL. During this extra season, expect him to showcase his elite scoring talent and improve upon his 24 points in 54 games from this season. #11 - Kyle Andersen - 173 TPE: No trend, Moderate risk, Moderate potential Andersen is a player which I would have called low risk, but his 5 TPE earned this week raises some concern. He performed well for Philly this season, with 65 points in 72 games. Even more impressive was his 12 points in 6 playoff games. The defender is very well rounded, with his only real weakness being his passing. I could see him becoming a real nice piece for a team that drafts him come draft day. #12 - Justin Graves - 143 TPE: Trending up, Moderate risk, High potential Graves joined in the last week of S70 draft eligibility, and like Spaz, had a steep hill to climb. He still has a ways to go, but he is catching up extremely quick. Earning over well over 100 TPE in his first 6 weeks, he is on a path to much success. His offensive numbers were not great, but joining that late in the season in a limited role with Mississauga didn't give him much opportunity. Next season he is sure to be great wherever he ends up, where he can use his nearly unmatched vision. #13 - Derek Eriksson - 150 TPE: No trend, Low risk, Moderate potential Eriksson has shown glimpses of higher potential, but it seems as though his baseline for TPE per week is 8. I think he could end up being better than expected, but as of right now his potential doesn't seem to be as high as those above him. This being said, he has been very consistent in earning TPE, and he posted some really nice numbers in the VHLM last season, with 55 points in 62 games with the Reapers. He is an offensive threat with notable defensive awareness as well. #14 - Gabriel Gutzwiler - 150 TPE: No trend, Low risk, Moderate potential Along with his brother, Leon, Gabriel Gutzwiler has been a force to be reckoned with in Halifax. With 73 points in 72 games and 35 goals, Gabriel is dangerous in the offensive zone, and uses his elite shot to his advantage. He also had a fantastic +54 rating, so his defensive game is also polished and effective. His TPE earning has been unwavering and steady, although not extremely high. While some players have consistency issues, that is the last of his worries. I see it as a very high possibility that he makes the VHL and is a valuable player, but I don't think at this point that he has shown star potential. #15 - Damien Wolfe - 161 TPE: Trending down, High risk, High potential Not too long ago Wolfe was a staple in the top 5 for this draft. His TPE production dipped for two weeks before going completely inactive for two more weeks, and he has just come back this week. I still see a lot of potential, but he needs to get back to where he was a month ago before I can consider him a top prospect again. Despite his lack of activity, Wolfe really came alive in the playoffs for Saskatoon, with 8 goals and 9 assists in 14 games. I hope he gets back to being the exciting prospect he was a month ago, because he could be a steal if he falls this far in the actual draft. From here, I'm just going to be listing my picks rather than profiling them. Hope you enjoyed, and good luck to everyone in the draft tonight! #16 - Aleelee Kiak - 125 TPE: No trend, Moderate risk, Moderate potential #17 - Leon Gutzwiler - 141 TPE: No trend, Low risk, Low potential #18 - Dick Cheezy - 128 TPE: No trend, Moderate risk, Low potential #19 - Ike Bennett - 89 TPE: Trending up, Moderate risk, Moderate potential #20 - Alex Bridges - 97 TPE: Trending up, Moderate risk, Moderate potential #21 - Jimothy Frost - 130 TPE: Trending down, High risk, Moderate potential #22 - Vladimir Shaposhnikov - 77 TPE: No trend, Low risk, Low potential #23 - JaredN - 74 TPE: No trend, High risk, Moderate potential #24 - Aleksandra Olsen - 96 TPE: No trend, Moderate risk, Low potential
  19. I’ll likely do my last 3 S70 profiles next week, and then I’ll be keeping my rankings and spreadsheet updated. I don’t think I’ll keep the stats page updated just because it would have to be split between VHL and VHLM. Im thinking of making a huge media spot that covers all of the top 24 prospects (first 2 rounds) the day before the draft, and I like your idea of making one after about the surprising picks and all that. Then I’ll probably move on to S71, keeping my rankings and spreadsheet updated for S70 to make an article talking about who came out as the best players and stuff later on next season. Thanks again for your ideas, they’ve definitely made this series more interesting.
  20. New logo! What's the move, do I keep it, or go back to the old one? Anyways, the season is completely over, with both the team I play for, and the team I will be playing for losing in their respective finals. Not ideal, but it is what it is. Now, it's the time that draft discussions start to pick up, and I'm here for it. Here's my current top 10 as always: Edwin THE Encarnacion - Mikko Lahtinen - Odin Omdahl - Jacques Lafontaine - Shawn Glade Jr - Chad Magnum - Iangenere Risteneen - Kyle Andersen 1 Lewis Dawson 1 Jaxx Hextall New Jaxx Hextall makes his first appearance in the top 10 after absolutely surging in the TPE race, earning a total of 85 in his last 3 weeks alone. Magnum and Risteneen are also starting to make serious cases for a top 5 spot, though I don't have them there just yet. Another week goes by, another plug for my spreadsheet. A reminder that it has my full rankings, so you can see where you are if you're not in the top 10. Unranked means hasn't updated in 2 weeks or more. It also includes all TPE earning for the S70 and S71 drafts. Here it is, now updated with jobs: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Z3UmjHIkmoBNTRdw8dgQdp4kOVhVLVRgPADZOndKJUY/edit?usp=sharing Stats Name Goals Name Assists Name Points Odin Omdahl 48 Edwin THE Encarnacion 94 Shawn Glade Jr 129 Mikko Lahtinen 44 Shawn Glade Jr 91 Edwin THE Encarnacion 122 Iangenere Risteneen 39 Odin Omdahl 68 Odin Omdahl 116 Shawn Glade Jr 38 Iangenere Risteneen 52 Mikko Lahtnen 93 Gabriel Gutzwiler 35 Mikko Lahtinen 49 Iangenere Risteneen 91 Leon Gutzwiler 34 Leon Gutzwiler 47 Leon Gutzwiler 81 Edwin THE Encarnacion 28 Teddy Smith 45 Gabriel Gutzwiler 73 Owen Kaitanaq 24 Kyle Andersen 44 Kyle Andersen 65 Kyle Andersen 21 Gabriel Gutzwiler 38 Jimothy Frost 56 Jimothy Frost 20 Jimothy Frost 36 Derek Eriksson 55 Name Save % Jacques Lafontaine .900 Jaxx Hextall .871 Aleksandr Aleksandrov .863 Jacob buchholz .858 Jack Goff .852 News - Alex Bridge became the AGM of the San Diego Marlins! Congrats to him! - Chad Magnum and Iangenere Risteneen hit 200 TPE this week. - Aleelee Kiak hit 100 TPE this week. - Edwin THE Encarnacion, Mikko Lahtinen, Jacques Lafontaine, Damien Wolfe, and Mikeal Cuddy won the Founders Cup! - Edwin THE Encarnacion led the S70 class, and the whole VHLM, with 24 playoff points. - Damien Wolfe led the S70 class with 8 playoff goals. - Edwin THE Encarnacion led the S70 class, and the whole VHLM, with 18 assists. - Jaxx Hextall earned the most TPE this week, with 30. Profiles Aleksandra Olsen - D - 96 TPE My fellow Hound, Olsen has been a key contributor for the team. She put up a baffling +47, which is the highest in a single season for a Hound, ever. However, Olsen isn't a one-dimensional player by any means, posting 40 points on the season as well, very good numbers for a defense(wo)man in her first full year. Although the TPE earning has been a little inconsistent, she has proved that she is here to stay because of how long she's stayed active, and never missing out on updating more than one week at a time. I can see her as a really good depth piece in the VHL down the line, maybe more. Alex Bridges - C - 97 TPE The newly appointed Marlins AGM, Bridges has been an interesting prospect to watch. Ranked number 19 on my list, he has steadily earned TPE, except for one week in which he didn't earn any. Now that he has the responsibility of being an AGM, I don't see how he could fall inactive any time soon, so I expect his potential to be considerably high. The American center is an exciting offensive threat with plenty of scoring talent. Bridges' defensive game needs work, similar to his teammate Ike Bennett, who I covered last week. Nevertheless, I see a lot of potential here and I hope Bridges does well in his new job. Jaxx Hextall - G - 170 TPE Hextall has been earning TPE like a maniac lately, and he is sure to see it pay off as soon as next season begins. As mentioned above, he has earned 85 TPE in the past 3 weeks, as well as earning a spot in my top 10. He became a key piece for Halifax, as they pulled off the series win against Philly before ultimately falling to Saskatoon who won it all. A goalie defined by quickness, the Canadian is able to react just in time to make the tough saves needed to keep his team in games. There's lots of potential with Hextall, and I hope he can keep earning TPE at a good rate, though I don't expect 30 a week, as he's been doing lately.
  21. 1. Has to be Rice or Spyro. Which one? Absolutely no clue. They were both so consistent through the season and allowed us to stay so high in the standings. 2. Just congrats, and that their team was amazing this year. 3. Well, hopefully I can play for Riga, and have a good rookie season with them. 4. Not stressing about it. Saskatoon was a great team, and I’m glad we at least put up a fight. 5. Keep earning TPE, and covering the draft as it approaches. 6. I think I would pick Graves. He’s been really great in terms of earning TPE since he joined.
