  2. great to see you returning!
  3. as we head in to the final stretch of the regular season, jebediah big ol doinks in amish can't help but be a little disappointed in his individual performance. on one hand, it's been a great season so far for the malmo nighthawks, who are in a fierce battle at the top of the european conference standings. but for jebediah, he wishes he could have been a bigger contributor to the offensive success that has led the team so far. he has managed only 20 points, with four of those being goals of which three came on the power play. there are of course positives to take from jeb's encouraging rookie season. he has not been a defensive liability, coming in at plus 18 on the season so far. as well as only taking six minor penalties throughout the 50 games, adding up to a grand total of just 12 penalty minutes. on top of that he is average nearly two blocked shots a game, with 99 in total at this point and hopefully many more to come.

  8. i love being a minors gm, and i think it is one of the most rewarding jobs you can have in the league. but having a grand total of three active players on my team is a huge bummer. before the post complaining about recruitment was made there were five players on the team, but seeing the writing on the wall, i made a trade in order to build for next season and beyond. i really didn't want to because i was already operating at the bare minimum with one full line. on top of that, a less than stellar draft before i joined the team and we are in pretty rough shape. now mexico sits second to last in the standings, with three players and an inactive goalie. it is nearly impossible to attract the small amount of waivers that do come through, and the users that are on the team don't enjoy getting shelled constantly. i'm not sure if the solution is more aggressive recruiting, or a league contraction, or something else completely. but i really want the vhlm to thrive again, and i hope we can find a way to breathe back some life in to the league in the very near future.
  9. week 4
  10. personally i would love to have more players on my team
  11. jebediah big ol doinks in amish has had a tough introduction to the vhl so far. but joining an up and coming malmo squad that under performed last season has left him eager to impress. the start of the season was a very big wake up call and it took quite a few games for jebediah to adjust to the pace of the top league. along with that came some lackluster results for the nighthawks, which saw them slightly frustrated with the way things were going. but a small tweak to the line combinations and things have turned around massively for malmo. a massive eight game win streak brought the nighthawks right into contention to the extremely close european conference playoff race. and they are now getting good production from their veteran stars like skor mcfleury, yaroslav bogatyrev and henry eagles. players like viktor jensen and jacob stone are also coming into their own and showing that they can be the players to carry the team going forward. for jebediah, the points have been harder to come by, but he is happy to chip in wherever he can.
  12. welcome to the vhl!

  19. Jeb: An Amish Rookie Experience The journey from the small island nation of St. Lucia to Malmo, the 3rd largest city in Sweden has been nothing short of amazing for Jebediah Big Ol Doinks in Amish. That journey consisted of a one year stint in the VHLM playing for Houston, as well as another year spent in the VHLE playing for Bratislava. Jebediah himself doubted if he would ever make it to the VHL, but here he is, he made it. Jeb started his career on a very good Houston team where he soaked up as much knowledge from the better players around him in order to progress his career as fast as possible. They welcomed him with open arms and the team performed amazingly in the regular season, but lost their momentum in the playoffs. This first introduction to the rookies that he would eventually be playing against for seasons to come really motivated Jeb to train as hard as possible and try to stand out from the pack as much as he could. This hard work did not go unnoticed, and when the VHL draft rolled around the Malmo Nighthawks took a chance on Jeb by drafting him in the 1st round. The Nighthawks calling his name took him by surprise, but it also motivated Jebediah more than anything had in his career so far. Another development year was spent in the VHLE, where the same steady progression was made and Jeb continued to hone his craft. Ultimately, no huge amount of success was found by either team Jeb played for, but that did not bother him in the slightest. Every single thing that he did, was working towards that ultimate goal of playing in the VHL. And finally, he's made it. That familiar feeling of being a rookie remains. He has been the new guy for three seasons running on three separate teams. But he's finally at a place he can call home. There will be no one season and done for Jebediah in Malmo. He joins the team with a burning drive to be a player that his coaches, his teammates, and his fans can be proud of. For now, the focus remains the same as ever. Improve as much as possible, as quickly as possible. The jump from the development leagues to the VHL is a big one, and it will be a bit of a baptism by fire as Jeb has never shared the ice with skaters so talented. In his mind, just keeping up with the pace of play and not being a burden for his teammates to cover is the bare minimum. The main goal is to be as defensively sound as possible. There will be mistakes made along the way, but the hope is that the positive impact outweighs the negative. Any amount of points he manages to pick up will be a bonus. The team will always come first in Jebediah's mind and he intends to show them that he can hang with the best of the best.
