S81 Draft Coverage PART ONE :
he S81 Big Three arrived and made their appearance known with these 3 are all recreates from the stacked S72 Draft. These Three Users/Players have already climbed up the VHLM Draft Rankings and will without a doubt be at the top of the S81 Rankings when released. All three of these users also have the fact that they are all three rival GMs in the VHL as well. With their reputation and pedigree of content not to mention involvement in the league and amazing builders all around with incredible success with there previous players with HUGE trophy cases !
Starting us of is the top ranked player TPE wise Left Winger from Greece Nico Pearce @Spartan. The GM of the Moscow Menace and one of the league updaters and amazing Podcast series Nico is likely to max out on capped TPE for his entire career poising him to be one of the highest earning players in VHL history
Next up is our first players teammate and longtime friend Right Winger Zaza Colors @McWolf Top prospect and linemate of Nico Pearce is Zaza Colors whom is also a VHL GM and his work is legendary content wise and on the ice the Chemistry between Colors and Pearce has been nothing short of eye popping.
The top Center of this draft and high considerations to be the top pick in S81 Centreman Harkat Mulds @hylands. Harkat has had incredible success in his short time in the VHLM producing on both sides of the ice proving size is no issue for this up and coming Two way center who is proving to already playing like a proven veteran.
Look Forward to the S81 Draft Coverage Part Two: Featuring in depth dives into the players individual skills and attributes that separate them from the rest. As well as a touch on the Other BIG THREE @Bobo @tfong and @Spenceking

Player Profile
D.O.B –May 16th 2004
Nationality – Canada
Draft Eligibility – S81
Height –6’8
Weight –250 lbs
Position – Defense
Handedness – LeftCameron Elsby is a S81 VHL Draft eligible defenseman but most of all a S80 VHLM Draft eligible prospect, who hails from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. His older brother, Spencer Elsby, was drafted by the Philadelphia Reapers in the S72 VHLM Dispersal Draft and played briefly for the Missisauga Hounds prior to the draft in S71.
Prior to his time in the GNML and NOJHL, Elsby played youth hockey for Soo Greyhounds U14 AAA, Soo Thunder U15 AAA and the Soo Thunderbirds U16 AAA as an underager and Captained the team the following season Also representing team NOHA at the OHL Cup as well as being selected to Team White of the U-17 Team Canada Roster. Elsby was drafted 21st overall by the London Knights with the last pick in the first round in the 2021 OHL Priority Draft and was poised to make his OHL debut in 2021-2022
Due to COVID-19, Elsby didn’t play in the OHL this year. But, was named to Canada’s U18 roster at the 2021 IIHF U18 World Championships in Frisco, Texas and Plano, Texas. Elsby recorded one point in the tournament. He had recorded an assist when he fired a stretch pass at the blue-line in the neutral zone, his teammate collected the pass and scored a snap shot goal from the perimeter.
After an outstanding rookie season with the Thunderbirds', I was fully confident that Elsby would rise in people’s rankings when the OHL eventually got back on the ice for the 2020-21 season, but that didn’t end up happening. As a result, he is taking the best of his situation in making the transition to the VHLM for the end of the S79 Season creating a chance to prove to people he could be drafted in the first three rounds, even though the talent is there. Picking Elsby in the late rounds could be a real bang for your buck pick when we look back on it 10 years from now.
At this point, the next time that Elsby is scheduled to play again is when the today with the Mississauga Hounds as his season kicks off while the Hounds are continuing there playoff rush Elsby has now joined. Potentially, we could see Elsby play at the VHLM/VHLE Top Prospects tournament in Sault Ste Marie Michigan, but the rosters are not finalized yet. There is still much to learn about Cameron Elsby as he is such a RAW Talent with so many uncertainties and unknowns, the public is dying to know more and hopefully we will get to know more about this towering defenseman.

Big, Big, BIG. What else can you say about Cameron Elsby, he is an absolute giant, the first comparison that comes to mind is Zdeno Chara who only has one inch on Elsby as it is right now. Like most young players he needs to and will get a lot bigger, absolutely not afraid of contact and will drop the mitts. Is extremely mobile for somebody his size and his untapped potential and unique physical assets are what have him being such a hot topic and considered to be drafted so high. He is a great skater but does make some very questionable decisions with and without the puck. But again, his size and skating ability are just too good to pass up. Elsby has just recently signed with the Mississauga Hounds of the VHLM making the jump from his second year in Midget with a little Junior “A” Experience under his belt up to the big leagues with players a decade older than him. There is still very little known about Cameron as of right now while Elsby is in search of a Player Agent we know hes coming from the Sault Ste Marie Greyhounds U18 Program and is the younger brother Seattle Bears Defenseman Spencer Elsby
Elsby has excellent vision and playmaking ability, as well as the hockey sense to almost always make the right play. He seems to think the game and anticipate plays better than others out there on the ice. With his skating and stickhandling ability, Elsby is not afraid to skate the puck out of his zone or lead the rush. He can also make a long pass to start the transition game and start an odd-man rush. He has the passing ability and the hockey IQ to quarterback the play from the point. Elsby has the poise to make plays under pressure.
Elsby is an outstanding skater. He looks like he is floating above the ice. He has very good speed and acceleration in both directions. Cameron has a unorthodox stride, but still has the ability to change directions on a dime. He uses the outstanding speed to join the rush or to pinch in at the line. Elsby is rarely caught deep as he can still get back into position defensively thanks to that speed. His agility and footwork allow him to beat defenders one-on-one as well as to walk the line and make quick moves to open up passing and shooting lanes. Elsby has a unique center of gravity which helps his balance and makes him strong on the puck.
Elsby is also strong if not stronger in his own end of the ice. He is a smart player who reads the play well and is well positioned. His skating allows him to maintain good gap control when defending against the rush. Elsby’s size and aggressiveness in his play with a physical game in the corners and in front of the net. He is also not afraid to throw a hard hit if an attacker comes in with their head down. However, Elsby plays a disciplined game, he does not run around and get himself out of position looking for those big hits. Instead, he plays a cerebral game, looking to stop the opponent, get the puck back and start the transition game up the ice
Please Contact: VIA PM or Discord if you would like to represent Cameron Elsby as an Agent or know of someone who might

Guess whos back (long pause)....back (Even Longer Pause) ... back again....
ELSBY'S BACK !!!!!
The time in my life has finally begun starting to get back to anything close to somewhat normal. The VHL Community and being an active presence on the forums and discord are such a joy to my life and now having the time that I can commit to being as involved as possible with hopes of starting up the EAOE again and most of all ELSBY WANTS TO BE GM !!! VHL , VHLE, VHLM .... No matter which organization in any league decides to take Elsby on as AGM or if the VHLE BOG grants him a GM position we know this franchise is inheriting a hockey mind like no other. Elsby is most well known for his scouting reports most of all his coverage with VSN during S73 & S74 as well as his infamous Press conferences that each team that has had pleasure to be a part of Elsby's (AKA Spence King) Press Conferences can most definitely attest to that fact. Elsby/Kings Creativity with content related to his team have been consistently off the charts and always bringing new ideas and fresh images to the community and always making the most in attempt to make the experience as inclusive and realistic as possible , most of all FUN !!
