Spence King

Well with Theme Week around a Vacation during this Pandemic… Well Spencer Elsby had the Vacation of a lifetime this past fall, during the pandemic! My Fiancée and I were in a situation where she had banked time off work and shortly coming after the news my classes for the fall had been confirmed they would not be in class and all done through online. We decided were going to drive across the country for a month straight and go out to British Columbia and sight see everywhere along the way. The drive from Sault Ste Marie Ontario to Chilliwack , British Columbia where we would be staying for a week was estimated by the experts at “Google” to be 36 hours on the road, which evens out to about 6 full days of driving with 8 hours each day on the road on average not factoring in any stops….

So within two weeks after the plan we sporadically packed up into our home on wheels for the next 32 days in my Ford Escape with not an inch of room to spare. This trip was nothing short of the trip of a lifetime and it was clearly meant to be from the moment we left the city limits out of the corner of my eye I could see a animal like shadow running. As we got closer I realized what Im looking at is a Wolf and its running along the shoulder of the highway … alone ? and just running in pure joy the by far largest species of dog I have ever laid eyes on. The smile on that wolf was breathtaking, Jocelynn and I were both in such awe we literally were speechless for 30 seconds before both asking eachother “Did you just see that?!”. This trip has so many amazing stories and memories , the amount of places we travelled to and different parts of the country we saw was incredible and an experience like no other. Going from the forestry and inland lake of Ontario with all the colors in the fall, through the plains and prairies in Saskatchewan… you really could see you dog for days if he ran away it is that flat, WOW….. To the mountains in Alberta and the glaciers and Ocean fronts of British Columbia, Canada is such a diverse country and having the opportunity to travel and see each of these amazing cities and activities we did along the way was nothing short of incredible and impossible to forget. The wildlife in Alberta that fate had destined upon our eyes is hard to believe let alone the Wolf sighting. When turning into the small tourist city of Banff, Alberta there were two cars that pulled over immediately and a man jumped out stealthy with his giant camera as there Is a MASSIVE bull elk cross the street, its antlers couldn’t have been any shorter than 8 feet ! Later that night on our way to our cabin in Jasper we came to a traffic halt only to see further ahead it was a group off Ram or Billy Goats crossing the highway At first glance we saw 3 “Ram”, once the traffic began to move I saw 4 more goats coming up from across the highway out of the river and up the ditch in attempt to cross as well. Ahead of us was THIRTY THREE goats ! 33 ! There were babies , mamas , papas , grandpapas , grandmamas the whole clan was together it was incredible. There were ram on the side of the highway, on the highway , in the river on both sides, they were everywhere !

The best story ive been saving for last and that our incredible , you wouldn’t believe if I didn’t have video story of the herd of I don’t even know what breed of fucking giant elk and there two male leaders and the entire run down of what happened it was real life national geographic Infront of my eyes ! But your’e going to have to stay tuned to my upcoming content if you want to read that one , I need something to leave you on a cliff hanger to have some suspense coming back to read more from Spence Dad Joke

My first waiver signing, also your first D partner in the M  Grachev and Elsby go WAAY WAAY back

As you all know by now the FULL STORY here is the REAL DEAL  BREAKING NEWS ... `VHLs 1st Place Eastern Conference Vancouver Wolves Assistant GM Spence King has out of nowhere transtioned positions south on the west coast but to the VHLM ! in San Diego ! 

In Summary , After the VHL draft and going through a season  in the VHL and the MAJOR differences in the role an AGM plays in the VHLM compared to the VHL. I think its safe to say you can ask anyone that knows me and my work cant argue that my biggest asset i can provide to a team is my General Managerial Knowledge. This is a "SIM" League yes , but the real life aspects are all there , and IRL my Life goal is the same as here to be a GM.

@Spence King this isn't really a league announcement, so I moved it to VHL.com articles

Thank you sir  @gorlabSummary: I LOVE working front office in the VHL/VHLM , being a GM is my destiny and what I was born/placed on this earth to do. Beaviss and Dmax were the most AMAZING teachers and mentors I could have ever dreamed of, I have enjoyed my time with Vancouver so much and the family the Wolves Organization Beaviss has created taught me so much invaluable and intagible knowledge that there is no other access to other than Beavss Brain and I was lucky enough that he approached me and recognized my drive and passion for front office work so much from what my work in developing the Reapers Organization/rosters/users with my main goal to create what Beav has in Vancouver a tight knit family. The team aspect of the LR is so important to making the VHL experience everything it is and more.

Sorry for rambling @gorlab @Juice, Im a very emotional person and Ive struggled with many different hardships in my life, i never EVER want anyone to be feeling negatively impacted or misunderstanding offended from my text as its very easy to misinterpret the intent in some texts. The Focus on this Article was to address the situation of me moving from the VHL to the VHLM as i know Thad had mentioned to me the community wanted to know more and the whole story. 

@QuikMy most sincere apologies ! I understand 100% this isnt really a league announcement at this point and this should have been split into two articles it would have maybe been a  league announcement being more like the summary i wrote above and then to have used this article as a Media spot. ( I am Going to post the summary in the VHL.com articles, can you move this to the media spot forum please just to help with claiming and for updaters?) Thanks for your insight and clairification 

Im sorry and wanted again to apologize to @Beaviss& @thadthrasher again for not having this published sooner after the craziness.

-I am glad that I have finally been able to address this topic in full detail as there is alot more to the story as that's obvious than what was only at eyes view to the community, and now get ready for SAN DIEGO 

Goodbye , Fairwell and Until Next Time BC  

Well here we go again, Spence King and a shocking AGM change mid-season… Moving from the power house Vancouver Wolves organization in his time spent with @Beaviss. King is now on his way to joining the up and coming superstar GM and Legend in the making , the 2^nd GM in Marlins history @thadthrasher.This surprise transition came after the Marlins AGM spot opened up. GM Beav and I thought that this was the perfect opportunity to help forward my front office career and build my reputation towards being the #1 candidate for the next VHLM GM position. Beav and my previous boss @DMaximus support me in my goals and have done everything they can to help me work towards earning that reputation community wide and making myself the sure-fire number 1 candidate for the next open VHLM GM position. Moving from the VHL to the VHLM as an AGM was seen by a lot as extremely confusing as it looks to be a demotion from the pros to the M; however, this isn’t the case at all.

My greatest strengths come as a front office position in the M rather than the VHLM. With my people skills and drive, I aim to build the most prestigious organization and make the most realistic and inclusive experience for members possible. I know this will help with retention and make sure that these VHLM stars don’t lose interest when going into the VHL. The future plans that Thad and I have, coupled with our ambition is a endlessly burning flame that is about to set the community on fire.

During my tenure in the VHL as AGM, it was a MAJOR learning curve just like it was in my first season in the VHLM. I had only been a member for maybe 4 months and already working with Dmax as AGM in Philly. The story is the same in Vancouver and I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with such amazing people. Beav held my hand basically and helped me every step of the way, always quick to answer any questions or clarify anything with me. He was always sharing his invaluable knowledge on building and maintaining a successful franchise each season. Just look at the Wolves, Beav’s accolades and draft history speak for themselves. I could not have asked for a better opportunity than what I was given by Beav. I learned about trade value and VHL Cap rules as well as scouting for the VHL draft and the MAJOR differences in the role of AGM in the VHL compared to VHLM.

Dmax was the one who offered me my first AGM and front office position where I spent 4 seasons before Beaviss actually approached Dmax about acquiring me as an AGM for him in Vancouver. Fun fact: I never had any

intentions of ever being an AGM in the VHL nor did I think it was even in the realm of possibility for me to be on any VHL GM’s radar for something like this to occur. It went a little something like this.

Beav was in search of a new AGM, however rather than following the norm and posting the job listing and taking applications, Beav, the living legend, gave a call to THE Dmax inquiring about the permission to approach me with a job offer. Before I even had time to read the message from Dmax I saw a message from THE Beaviss, which had me in a little bit of a shock and awe to be honest. I had recently asked Beav previously in an interview in a discord chat for a different media spot in the works however its much more fitting here.

“So Beav, not everyone may know this but I was hired by you in S75 past the mid-season mark to takeover the reigns as AGM, what most people may not know is that I actually never applied for this position, the role of being an AGM in the pros was something I had never even thought of as a possibility, I LOVE and LOVED every moment as AGM in Phill with Dmax however Dmax has been pushing me to keep applying and encouraging me and reassuring me I will be an amazing VHLM GM and this is where you come into my VHL story. I received a message on discord from you only moments later to see that Dmax was making me aware of the situation and that you had asked his permission to speak with me about the possibility of a "promotion." Dmax, my partner in crime and BFF in the VHL community, the reason I am still here is Dmax lets be real, the idea or thought of leaving my position as AGM in Philly was never something I ever considered and truly was certain I would be the AGM in Philly for... ever maybe , or just follow Dmax wherever and ultimately earn that VHLM job. I could do what I’m best at. engaging and creating the most positive realistic and inclusive discord server and team atmosphere ever seen. Now enough of me ranting about myself which like you said on draft night to Josh "Selsby likes to talk ALOT"- Beaviss in voice chat. Squirrel.... Sorry my ADHD is obvious.

Now FINALLY, Beav, I still wonder to this day what is it that lead you to reach out to Dmax about me rather than taking applicants like all other GMs seem to be doing as of late. You went out of your way to personally reach out to me and eventually “poach” me from the Reapers. I 100% knew who you were and one million percent, honestly, I didn’t think you even had a clue who I was ?......” – Spence King Assistant General Manager of the Vancouver Wolves* (Now AGM with SDM of the VHLM).

 So tell me what did I do to earn the respect and honor of you requesting me to be your AGM ?

“I had been looking for a new AGM that could help me with scouting and to bounce ideas off of. I saw the good job you were doing with Dmax in Philly and thought you would be one of my two choices. I asked around and got some feedback from some other members and you were talked about in a high regard. Your drive and passion for the draft just pushed you over the other candidate I had picked. All in all, I think it has been a good fit.”- Beaviss General Manager of the Vancouver Wolves of the VHL

How do you think the Wolves rosters has accepted Mr King into the organization being virtually unknown? Was his ability to adapt to such a big change, quick and easy or still working his way into the group?

King has been able to learn and transition seemignlessly and is a regular with everyone, he earned his respect with hard work and dedication proving through his locker room presence and team Media Spots as well as some big help on draft night. -Beaviss General Manager of the Vancouver Wolves of the VHL

In conclusion, thank you so much Beaviss and each member of the Vancouver Wolves Organization for everything while I was in VAN. I’m sorry things didn’t work out and the VHL AGM just wasn’t the best fit for me and with my ambitious towards VHLM GM. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate and respect you for allowing me to accept this opportunity climbing the ladder towards being the #1 candidate when the right time comes. I am working on a formal thank you to the entire Wolves organization and each of its members :heart:. I seriously can’t thank you enough for the opportunity you gave me with working in the VHL and learning so much from you and now I have learned honestly SO much about the VHL and how it’s run. I feel comfortable knowing the trade values and what to look for and the MAJOR differences between being a GM in the VHL and the VHLM and the major differences in what should be focused on the most. I can’t thank you enough for the invaluable knowledge you have given me regarding trading mentalities and how the market in the VHL works, as well as how to run a successful organization continuously every season, just like the real life Red Wings during there legacy run in the 2010 era. Thank you so much for always spending the time to teach me as much as humanly possible and this was without a doubt an experience I will never regret or forget. I am so honored and proud to have been a part of the Wolves Organization. I have no plans on leaving the VHL, ever. Who knows, I might be back someday  you Beavv and I can’t thank you enough. Seriously , like seriously, I’m doing what i know you love talking a storm. The Wolves are looking to have such a bright future and are serious contenders for the Continental Cup this year! I wish you and the Wolves all the best and don’t expect me to stop covering the wolves Thanks again Beav, I am so grateful for everything you have done for me and my reputation

o all the Vancouver Wolves roster, players, and prospects, it’s truly been the biggest honor to have had a part in your careers. The sky is the limit for each and every one of you. Saying goodbye is extremely hard and I would love to give each of you a personal fairwell and thank you for being such great users in the LR and so accepting of me when I came out of nowhere with a small resume. You all welcomed me with open arms, and unfortunately the draft Playoffs didn’t go our way buy hockey’s a game of inches and seconds. Look at the Wolves now, you’ve got the best offense in the league that Beav has assembled. @IamMOOSE Kevin, I’m so sorry for all the issues and problems you had and feelings you had. I am so happy you decided to stay with the Wolves as your presence in the LR is like no other and truly a user GMs Dream on having! To all of my Wolf Pups, I spent so much time watching you grow throughout the season scouting you in the VHLM and having the honor to call your names on draft night and be part of such a special experience in your career that you will never forget. Please know each and every play picked by the Wolves in the recent draft were on Beavs Draft Board we came up with and the cards fell right in our lap and were able to run away from the draft laughing with the success in draft picks. @RomanesEuntDomus & @Sixersfan594 Having the opportunity to draft you both in the 1^st round after being a part of drafting you only a season ago to start your legendary careers in Philly where you were both relatively very low picks and have risen to unanimous 1^st round picks. I couldn’t be more honored than to have had the opportunity to work with Beaviss and participate in the VHL draft as I am an IRL scout and the draft is without question my favorite day of the year. Nothing gets me more excited than draft hype, especially when the draft goes your way like this previous one did.

I apologize to each and every member of the community and most of all the players in the Wolves Organization that this announcement was not made public sooner. I had some very unfortunate technically difficulties where I had completed a 3000+ word with half my thank you and farewell letters written in the Forum Dialogue box only to lose it all. Now expect a fleury of content coming your way as I have a handful of projects I have been working on for quite sometime know and just need some organizing and making sure it’s ok and perfect before it hits the media.

TO THE VHL COMMUNITY: I hope you can understand the issue and with me having so much I wanted to say to the Wolves Organization , ESPECIALLY our Roster , @DarkSpyro , @Poptart @BladeMaiden, @Garsh @fonziGG @jpsd @SweatyBeaverit has been such a great experience and amazing learning opportunity that will stick with me for the rest of my front office career! I wish you all the best of luck moving forward and keep up the :fire work that you have all been putting in! Much love to the pups that weren’t mentioned, @Parriyah9374  Kamkar I am so glad you trusted me as well as you too @Kmatt , look your are both VHLM SUPERSTARS, and are going to be career VHL stars, as you will both obviously be on the opening night roster. @CptSquall& @NotSoGood88, you both are truly something AMAZING prospects, and players we wanted 100% and like I said you are also the type of user every GM dreams of, the ambition and quality of work and research as well as pride you put into your work does not go unnoticed.

In an Outro here is a Quote from the San Diego Marlins General Managaer @thadthrasher-""I'm really excited to have you coming to San Diego as my AGM. I had nearly 25 great applicants for this position, but you stuck out the most. You're a passionate guy who wants to make sure people do well, learn, and grow. Everything you had to offer is exactly what I was looking for in an AGM. I know that the future that we will have together as GM and AGM will be one that is unmatched by anyone else. My dream is to make San Diego the team that everyone wants to play for, and I think between the two of us we can easily make that happen."

Answer 3 for 1 TPE or 6 for 2 TPE!

 

It's  everyone's fav time, press conference time!! So Lets get things kicked off with some easy TPE and laughs. Just going to tell you all again how much I enjoy seeing your creative and wacky answers. Thanks for being the best team and AGM could ask for Without any further fluff, here are your questions:

 

1.) What is your Fav Helsinki Titans Jersey?

 

 

The middle jerseys WITHOUT A DOUBT !!!!   are those are main Jerseyz ? and is there a sub thread that shows each teams "Official Jerseys" like Sonnets official Logo thread ?? if not there should be :fire

2.) You discover a beautiful island upon which you may build your own society. You make the rules. What is the first rule you put into place?

BAN ALL ALCOHOL, MAKE ALCOHOL ILLEGAL

3.) You have been given the opportunity to create the half-hour TV show of your own design. What is it called and what’s the premise?

@BladeMaidenidk how you do it , coming up with the BEST PC questions (Coming from my experience writing PCS) this answer is  I love being asked this question because the answer is so easy, The design would be a a show that just follows me around all day recording my life and everything i do , and i dont mean Spence King the GM , or Spence Elsby the player , or Selsby on discord, but me Spencer Elsby your unique northern canadian 25 year old man living the life and ... just ... The Awards the show would win .... just wow .......

4.) Name the top five hockey related things to take with you during a zombie outbreak. (Think of things that you would have in your hockey bag, locker or at home)

EASY ! 

1.SKATES

2.HOCKEY STICKS

3.SKATE SHARPENING TOOL AKA  A "STONE"

4. MY PRACTICE BUCKY ...because you know im not getting my game swag with zombie guts on it , only on ice battle scares

5.I CANT THINK OF A GOOD 5TH HOCKEY RELATED THING now i feel stumped , well played blade well played.... after rereading, it technically says hockey related things "at home" well My Trophies would be deadly as fuck if i were to try and impale you or smack you upside the head with them. My European Conference Playoff Champion Rings would be a pretty deadly brass knuckle...  but were talking zombies so those were out of the questions. FINAL ANSWER MY U16 WHC MVP Trophy and U16 WHC CHAMPIONSHIP WINNERS CUP 

5.) What are things that management can do that makes you feel supported as a player? (what is important to you?)

The discord tags!!! post games , PC , and consistent presence are nothing short of the best by miles when it comes to hyping up users , making us feel valued and incentivizing success through unconditional praise  

 

 

7.) When fans see hockey players they often freak out, who is one of the people you would fan boy/ fan girl / fan person over? ( For example Venus Thightrap, is a huge comic book nerd so meeting someone like Robert Kanigher and Sheldon Moldoff who created Poision Ivy would mean a lot to her. Venus’ name is meant to be a nod to Ivy.)

Any NHL player .....

13.) Give this Gif a hashtag : # @Joshothegreat

This might however be a tough one for 1st gen users (most specifically BRAND SPANKIN new users to write about assuming 1st gen users have never been exposed to STHS, writing a media spot about something you dont even know anything about is never good content lol ...

We are now one week into the season, time for some serious hard hitting questions that will use your power of analytics to devise witty and thoughtful answers, jk this is me we are talking about so lets just have some fun

2.) Referring back to question one, What is your sense of humor like? What type of humor, makes you buts a gut or or crack a wry smile?

ANYTHING , im an easy going gy

3.) We are now well into the season and it is time for me to ask the age old staple question of how do you think your player is doing?

I know i have alot more to offer , the team has been playing great but i know i can do better conisstently 

4.) What do you think your player is doing best so far this season?

6.) Would you drop your gloves if you saw someone harassing @Tape-to-Tape, Our main tendie Zamboni Driver, on the ice? How would you deal with that situation. @Jubo07 says I'm not allowed to beat up other teams players on the ice because it is unprofessional but i think we all know if i had gloves i would drop them for any member of this team!

It's hard for Spence Elsby to believe he's entering just his FOURTH VHL season.

"We technically have had 5 [training] camps, one at the start of last year, the following year where I surprised a lot of people and cracked the opening night roster, and this now being my FIFTH its really hard too believe ," said the Vancouver Canuck defenceman. "It does kind of feel like my fourth year as a Pro… a bit."

The 20-year-old Hughes joins forwards Superstar VHL forwards in Ola Vikingstad, 25, Valtteri Vaakanainen , 23, and Patrik Laine, 18, plus goaltender and fellow S72 Draft Class mate Zamboni Driver, 42, as the core of a Canuck team that opened the S76 season this week hoping to build off a successful offseason and training camp run last summer.

"We took a step last season," said Elsby, who was picked seventeenth overall by Helsinki in the S72 VHL draft. "For us, there's an excitement that we just have to keep going."

Elsby experienced an unusual rookie season. He had played 72 games and established himself as a Rookie of the year candidate by scoring 14 goals, 31 assists and 45 points, some pretty incredible numbers from a rookie defenceman in a league like the VHL. He followed the regular season up with a homecoming party going all the way  to the continental cup finals against Seattle. Elsby lead the playoffs for the entire VHL for Shots blocked for the majority of the playoffs and finished with an outstanding 5 goals, 7 assists and 15 points in just 17 Playoff games as a rookie.

'He shows a lot of maturity'

Veteran Helsinki defenceman Erik Summers had a front-row seat watching Elsby grow and adapt to the VHL.

"He was such a good player to even start out the year last year," his teammates said. "The things you see with with him, he developed a consistency you don't see too often in young guys, especially for his age.

Elsby has continued throughout his VHL tenure showing no signs of rust keeping strong when the VHL resumed this most recent week. Elsby  collected 11 assists and 12 points in 11 games, along with one goal to date. Elsby starts the season atop the Helsinki defensive depth chart full of promising youngsters and a solid mixture of veteran and experience to mix in with Rune and Summers.
