For the week ending 2/28:

 

1. We're out of the playoffs--but who's winning the cup?

2. What are your thoughts on the live sim drama that took over the league earlier this week?

3. With Davos finishing in last, we're guaranteed either the first or second overall pick. Who do we draft--Atreides, Idaho, or Reinhart? Do we go for a defender in the other Reinhart? What's our best option?

4. Should I ever say anything other than "David" on Davos Twitter?

5. You have the opportunity to fire any commissioner and replace them with whoever you want. Which one do you fire, and who's the new one?

6. The player store now allows you to take away your future player's starting TPE and use it on your current one (it doesn't; this is hypothetical). Would you ever use this system?

 

@Jer_Lefebvre @Big Dee @Lefty_S @Ahma @Advantage @Grape @PadStack @Berocka

1) idk not focused on that focused on next season

2)What was the drama ? Didn’t notice don’t pay attention to that side of things 

3)I think we just need to take the best player available regardless of position

4)Nope 

5)Not really my decision to make I don’t wanna comment on anything like that 

6)Depending on the situation ya I think I might to give my current player a boost

For the week ending 2/21:

 

1. The trade deadline just came around! Which members who have recreated would you like to see at some point in your career?

2. With that, all recreates will be S78 players. What are your first impressions of the S77 draft class, now that it's complete?

3. With 11 games left in the season, what's your realistic estimate of how many of those we'll win?

4. What keeps you coming back to the VHL?

5. With Davos likely finishing near the bottom of the league next season as well as this one, what are you most excited about next season?

6. What's your favorite color?

 

@Jer_Lefebvre @Big Dee @Lefty_S @Ahma @Advantage @Grape @PadStack @Berocka

1) Not really sure tbh

2)Been pretty solid so far !

3)I could see is getting 4 of 11 maybe 5 

4) It’s just a fun time in your own little world of sorts it’s a nice get away 

5)Just excited to see what the future holds, whether it is here with Davos or somewhere else. I’ve really enjoyed it here it’s a great team to play with

For the week ending 2/14:

 

1. The trades are done! Winter to Chicago for a 1st, Jensen to Seattle for a 2nd and 4th, Dawson to DC for a 3rd and 4th, and Hornet to Vancouver for...well, let's just say "a lot". What do you think about these trades? Did I manage to get a decent return on them?

2. Over the past couple days, we saw Malmo sell off their top players for arguably considerably less than what we got for ours. Did the timing of our selling (making things happen before another team got to it) help our case at all?

3. Speaking of Malmo, their GM (Frostbeard) just announced on Monday that he is planning to step down at the end of the season. What's one member you'd like to see take his spot?

4. Out of everyone we've traded, who do you think you'll miss the most?

5. What's your favorite little-known fact?

6. Valentine's Day is coming up on Sunday! Do you have a special someone in your life? Why not?

 

@Jer_Lefebvre @Big Dee @Lefty_S @Ahma @Advantage @Grape @PadStack @Berocka

1) I think you got a great return those were some great players you moved 

2)It did for sure because those teams you traded with were out of the picture for them to trade with as teams looking for top end talent

3)Honestly no idea I don’t get to caught up in that aspect 

4) Hornet

5)Ummmmmmmm idk

6)I do! Don’t wanna tlak about it tho

For the week ending 2/7:

 

1. Today I announced that I'm planning on selling off some of our high-end players, with the intent of falling back on paper for a season or two and hopefully being more set up for success in the future. Do you agree with this decision? Why or why not?

2. With that being said, who off our current roster do you see being traded?

3. How long do you think it will realistically take for us to have a competitive roster after this season?

4. What's something you value highly in a GM? What about a teammate?

5. What's your dream car?

6. What's been your contribution to the VHL community up to this point? What do you hope to accomplish here in the future?

 

@Jer_Lefebvre @Sonnet @Velevra @McWolf @Big Dee @Lefty_S @Ahma @Advantage @Grape @PadStack @Berocka @Kendrick

1) if this is the direction we need to go to find success then it’s what needs to happen 

2)Winter and Hornet possibly if we are tlaking high end 

3)minimum two years 

4)honesty and openness if you have those two things you can work through everything else

5)1967 Ford GT500 Shelby mustang 

6)I’ve only really contributed being a player maybe in the future I will get involved in other ways

1. The season just started! What do you think our chances at success are?

2. Predict your statline for this season! 

3. We had a lot of high-scoring games today, in both the VHL and VHLM. Do you think something has changed with either the sim engine or the league, or should we expect things to level off to normal?

4. Where do you see yourself in the VHL in three seasons?

5. How has your NHL team done to start the season? What's been good and what needs work?

For the week ending 10/25:

 

1. Now that the regular season is winding down, how do you feel about your individual performance this season as a whole?

2. We're right on the edge of making the playoffs as I'm writing this. If you're answering this before the regular season ends, will we make it? Does Davos, Prague, or Helsinki get knocked out? If you're answering this after it ends, are you surprised by how the last couple sims went?

3. Not including yourself, which member of the league who is not currently a VHL GM would you like to see as one?

4. What's the best place you've ever traveled to?

5. Do you have a favorite time of the year? How does October stack up to it?

6. Have you played, or do you currently play, any sports in real life? Which ones?

 

@BlueMaple @Jer_Lefebvre @Sonnet @McWolf @Velevra @turkey2349 @David O'Quinn @Ahma @Josh @PadStack @Rayzor_7@studentized

1) I feel like my first season in the big leagues was a success overall it was a great learning curve as well as pretty up and ok amount of points 

2) We fought until the end tied things up but the tiebreaker just didn’t go our way 

3) I think Spence king would make a great gm

4) Sweden 

5) Summer no doubt can’t beat camp SZN

6) Played all sports really and still play hockey now

For the week ending 10/18:

 

1. Gorlab keeps reading our press conferences for some reason. Give him a shout-out or a personal message here.

2. Things are looking a little bit more stable sims-wise, as we've managed to win a few here and there after a bit of a change in the lines. Is this something we should be excited about now, or are we at the point where we should just hope for some good playoff luck?

3. What did you think about the VHL when you first joined? Is your outlook on the league any different now?

4. This past week saw a huge wave of new recruits. Is the league now full enough that we'll have to think about expanding again, or is it best to wait a while and see how these players affect the VHL when they move up?

5. Last week was theme week, where we talked about dream teams! If you could play with any one other player in the league, current or former, who would it be?

6. Do you have any particular style? What sort of clothes do you usually wear?

 

@BlueMaple @Jer_Lefebvre @Sonnet @McWolf @Velevra @turkey2349 @David O'Quinn @Ahma @Josh @PadStack @Rayzor_7@studentized

1) you mind or?

2) Seems like the change helped a hit hopefully we can get on the right track 

3) I thought it was aweomse nothing like I’ve experienced before still feel that way 

4) should wait and see if these players stick with it 

5) Would be Spence Elsby he showed me the VHL

6) just a casual guy however Jer Lefebvre got some drip going lol

2. Who's your favorite NHL team and what's the worst thing about them?

3. Last week, I asked who your favorite sports figure of all time was. Who's your least favorite, in any sport?

4. We've been...inconsistent lately, beating first-place Riga one day and losing to expansion Warsaw the next. What's your general outlook on our chances this season?

5. Which GM, apart from myself, do you know the best? Are there any GMs who you haven't talked to much or at all?

6. Is there anything you wish the league did or offered that it currently doesn't?

2) The penguins and at this moment our GM lol

3) It’s gotta be Travis Konecny right now I cannot stand him

WE GO HARD ON THE EARLY UPDATING THIS WEEK FOLKS

 

1. Apparently we decided to suck, for no readily explainable reason. Sims as of late have gone horribly, we're currently out of a playoff spot, and even returning to the lines which put us on top of the EU has done nothing to help that. Do you have any idea what happened? What's your best guess?

2. Someone has placed a curse on Davos, of course! Who's the first person we investigate?

3. All roads point to nowhere and nobody finds out who cast the magic spell. What's your favorite supernatural remedy?

4. The VHL Players' Association starts up again, after having failed the last few times it was attempted. You've been elected the representative for Davos--what's the first issue you bring up?

5. Who's the best VHL player from your home country (either yours or your player's)? Go here and sort by birthplace; feel free to include retired players if you'd like to.

6. While you're on the portal, what was the last VHLM team you played for, and what are their chances at a cup right now?

 

@Sonnet @McWolf @Ferda @David O'Quinn @Ahma @Josh @PadStack @gorlab @Velevra @DMaximus

1) Sometimes teams just go through spans where bounces just don’t go their way

2) I heard through the grape vine that a couple guys on Davos were hanging out with someone into voodoo??

3) You gotta burn stuff! Anything and everything lol

4) These dam VOODOO dolls being left around to use on Davos

5) In my opinion. SS Hornet is that player rising star

6) Currently playing there in Minnesota we have a good shot just won round 1

Answer 6 questions to claim 2 TPE

 

1. Do you think the hockey media is biased towards or against specific teams?

2. With only a few games left in the season, where do you think we will end in the standings?

3. Are there any teams you are worried about come playoffs?

4. What do you think will be your biggest take away from this season?

5. How have you been beating the heat this summer?

6. What is your favorite season and why?

7. Best team mascot and why?

1) I think to a certain point yes just depends most are biased to their market 

2) I’m not worried about that I know wherever we end up we have the guys in this room to win a championship 

3) again I’m not worried about that stuff if we stick to what we do best as a team and come together we can beat anyone 

4) I think for me it’s my own confidence this season has really allowed me to show what I do best 

5) camp life for sure 

6) summer because I spend most of my weekends either golfing or at camp

Disclaimer: I'm an idiot. I have edited the tag list a few times thinking I've gotten it correct and...let's just say that hasn't happened. I finally went through and made sure I had it accurate, so here it is with apologies to anyone who I've been missing or who I've been tagging without reason.

 

Anyway, for the week ending 8/16:

 

1. Towards the beginning of this madness, I checked in a few times on your life with respect to all things COVID and quarantine. I'm checking in again--any updates? Has anything changed for you recently? How are the numbers looking in your area?

2. This week is theme week, where we talk about future players! I assume most people will talk about a future player of their own--but if you had naming rights to any other member's next player, who would it be and what would you name them?

3. You can bring anyone you know from elsewhere, be it online or in real life, into the VHL. Who is it?

4. The team hits the gym--what exercise can you do better than everyone else?

5. You see the same "pregame ritual" question all the time. What do you do after games?

6. What were you doing an hour before you answered this question?

 

@Sonnet @McWolf @Ferda @David O'Quinn @Ahma @Josh @PadStack @gorlab @Velevra @DMaximus

1) Honestly my life has not been affected to greatly there have been a total of 20 cases in my entire region, since this started and there are 0 right now.

2) If I got to name another members player it would be @Spence King and I would name him Happy Gilmore haha

3) I would love to bring Paul Bissonette aka BizNasty into the VHL world he would be hilarious

4)Definetly rocking that leg press machine no doubt 

5) Crack a cold bud light and get the hot tub going at home 

6) Watching hockey lol

 Seeing it is theme week and this seasons theme focuses on the future I have decided to put sole thought into what direction I would want to go next once Jer Lefebvre has run his course! Now don’t get me wrong Jer is only in his 3rd and final season in the VHLM, next year he will make the jump to the pros but still has a long career ahead of him before I can get going on my next create. However, with that being so, I took the week and did some thinking, and it was some tough thinking but I think I am going to take the plunge and develop myself a goaltender ! 
 

   When I first created Jer Lefebvre it was a very very easy decision! I have been a forward my whole life, always played center and am the same size as Jer. So when it came time to create my first player I just created myself. Even with the in depth we are able to get with developing our skills it allowed me to be myself even more, and good skating, shoot first, but still a great playmaker kind of player. I have really enjoyed having Lefebvre as my player so far and With lots more career to go i am very excited to see the path it takes, but when I think about having a goalie it makes me just a little more exciting as it will be a change of pace that I have never been used to!
 

     I find that not many want to go that route but in my life being a forward throughout actual hockey career I have always been intrigued by playing goalie, I would even play it sometimes in pick up or exhibition games. So what better place to be able to be a goaltender than the VHL! It gives you the ability to be anything you could imagine any type of forward,defence, and yes even a goalie! 
 

    I think that I’m terms of nationality I will stick with a good old homegrown Canadian boy, in my opinion Canada produces goalies like no other country, so I think I will stick with that. Looking at his personal attributes I will definetly be making him taller in stature as many goalies now a days are at least 6 foot, and will be somewhere in the are of 200 pounds, always nice having a little lighter of a goalie, allowing him to be more flexible and Mobile.

 

     In terms of ability, I plan on developing his skills after the model of Carey Price. With his always calm, cool, and collected demeanour it is idea to have in those clutch situations. Price is widely considered one of, if not the best goaltender in the world, so if my goalies skills can be developed to even half of his he will have a very successful career.

 

     Now this decision is not completely set in stone as there is a vast amount of time from the end of Jer Lefebvre’s career and now, my mind could change multiple times, but as of right now I am for sure leaning towards starting a career with a goaltender... the most important position in hockey!

For the week ending 8/2:

 

1. Davos is off to a decent start! Right now, we're fourth in the league, and the top isn't too far away. How do you feel about our chances this season, compared to the last?

2. The team lands in LA for (I think) its longest away-game flight and just wants to go to the hotel. What's the best cheap, quick takeout you can think to order?

3. What does your ideal Davos jersey look like?
4. If we had an alternate or secondary logo, what would it be?

5. NHL hockey is back! Will everything go as planned? What are your predictions for the rest of the season?

6. Yesterday, it was announced that the affiliation the VHL previously had with the SBA has been reinstated! What are your thoughts on the situation as a whole?

 

 

@Sonnet @McWolf @David O'Quinn @Ahma @Josh @Brrbisbrr @PadStack @gorlab @Velevra @DMaximus

1) I think Davos a Greta chance this season got good depth on the roster this year 

2) Gotta love the cheap quick subway lol

3) My ideal Davos jersey with be a nice dark purple with silver and white

4) Not the most creative of a guy but I think a cool font of “DD” in some form would look good 

5) I’m the happiest person in the world right now that nhl is back gonna be constantly glued to my couch

6) I think it’s Great for the organization as a whole no doubt 

+4

      This season has been a good one so far for Jer Lefebvre and the Minnesota Storm! Acquired by the storm near the end of the offseason, Jer has settled in nicely to his new home! In his 3rd season it is expected of him to be a leader on his team and that is what he is doing, being very productive and just recently being named an assistant captain! 
 

    As of the now the Storm sit 4th in the VHLM with a 17-5-1 record, though they are only sitting 4th the top of the league standing are very tight. They are only 1 point back of the 3rd and 2nd place Houston and Ottawa, as well as only 3 points back of Miami who they have had lots of success against this season. 
 

As for personal success, Lefebvre has again stepped up his game from season to season. So far this year he is 9th in league scoring with 38 points in only 23 games! His game has developed much more as a scorer too, with 18 goals that is good for 5th in the VHLM. Choosing to return for one more season Lefebvre was expected to be a driving force for his team and now that we are a part of the way through the year that’s exactly what he is been.

 

    It is exciting to see what is in store for the rest of the season, but no matter what the end goal will never change, and that is a championship for Minnesota.

1) my personal goals for this season are to be top 5 in scoring in the VHLM and be a constant leader in the room.

2) I think expecting anything less than a championship with this special group I believe we have would be selling ourselves short,

3) In all honesty I think our biggest struggle throguh the regular season will be to stay consistent and engaged. We know we are a good team and we are going to be in the playoffs we just need to stay on track to prepare for it.

4) I think our biggest strength is our offensive ability, we have some high powered scorers on this team and we showed it in those first two games.

5) gotta love me some happy Gilmore can never go wrong with a classic haha

7) Hoping to get the call to play for Canada at some point would be an amazing honour 

My favourite memory of when I was 13 is travelling for hockey and spending all that time with my friends on the road!

Answer 6 questions to claim 2 TPE

 

1. Do you like having a break in the offseason, or would you prefer to get right back into the games?

2. Who are you rooting for in the World Cup of Hockey going on right now? 

3. What do you like most about the game of hockey?

4. What are you most looking forward to for this upcoming season?

5. What holes, if any, do you think our team has?

6. Would you rather finish second 4 seasons in a row, or win the league once and finish bottom of the table every other season? 

7. Do you think there should be a Hall of Fame for the VHLM? Why or why not?

8. How have you been?

1. I like the break, a little bit of a recharge before getting back into the grind

2. Gotta be rooting for my roots the good old Canadian boys!!

3. I love the intensity and the passion it brings and of course winning I hate to lose more than anything

4. Looking forward to being a leader, and helping the newer players as we take a run at the championship, this will be my third year now and I need to lead by example 

5. I think the team is looking very strong and we have one of the best shots to take a deep run

6. Definetly get the one win! Championships are everything that’s all that matter no one remembers who came second place 

7. No not really, it is a league meant mostly for development, every team should have their own alumni area as most do but hall of fame I don’t think is necessary 

8. So good lol

Philadelphia Reapers S72 Press Conference #8

For week ending July 12

Answer ALL 6 for 2 TPE!

 

1)     This Series with Saskatoon has been an all-out war every night for 60+ minutes. This series could have easily been the finals with debatable the two top teams. Tonight June 6^th 2020 its do or die for the legendary S72 Reapers, How are you personally going to ensure victory in game 7?
