  4. Since my VHLM career will be coming to an end this week, I decided I will use my VHL.com article to send an open thank you to the guys in charge of Miami while I was there, both GM @Ricer13 and AGM @bigAL - this goes out to you. The VHLM is the place everyone starts - whether it is your first, second, or eighteenth player. It is especially important for VHLM management to be helpful, teaching new members everything they need to know. Starting out, I wasn't exactly sure what to do. I had no team, joining after the season and before the draft. I knew you could earn by doing some things like making graphics, but I didn't even know how to claim welfare my first week. Despite knowing I was going to be a late draft pick, I was very excited to see myself in the draft. Along with my friend @osens, we both watched the entire draft stream, and surprisingly enough, we both were drafted to the newest VHLM franchise - the Miami Marauders. I'm not even sure how Miami knew we wanted to play together, maybe it was just dumb luck. But me and osens (and eventually dart who signed as a free agent) were more than happy to be playing together. Maybe I'm getting a little off track here. This is supposed to be just a long thank you to both BigAl and Krice. I loved my time in Miami. As a new member, krice was the perfect GM for me, teaching me the ways to earn TPE, the ins and outs of VHL, and giving every person on the team an opportunity to succeed both in Miami and beyond. Due to both Al and Ricer, I am now an active member of the community, and I don't see myself going anywhere anytime soon. Maybe it would've been different going somewhere else, with not as much support. Nonetheless, in my opinion, even after just 2 seasons as a GM in the VHLM, krice is ready to make the jump to VHL GM. As for Al, I am sad to see him step down as Miami AGM, but life always comes first. I wish him the best with Groovy Dood. More than happy to have had these guys as my first management team, and well, friends.

  12. Lamb answers questions at his introductory Press Conference New York, NY - New York Americans General Manager Esso Drunkmann announced that effective immediately, Hurricane "Cane" Lamb will take over the vacant Assistant General Manager role. The role was left open by Hylands departing for the GM role of the Mexico City Kings in the VHLM. Lamb does not have much previous experience in a GM role, however he was the GM of Team Canada at the S73 WJC, Placing 4th after a heartbreaking loss to Team World. He brings his outgoing, engaging personality who is willing to learn all he can from Esso in order to grow and progress in the VHL management scene. He comes into a NYA team that will look much different next season, however for now, he is focused on helping the team this season in their "win-now" mentality. Lamb is a graduate of both Brock University and Niagara University, acquiring a Sport Management and Business degree respectively. He lived on the same floor as Toronto Maple Leafs GM Kyle Dubas, who also took Sport Management at Brock. Hopefully there is something in the water there. He has never held a management role in professional hockey before, however has been at the helm of many junior clubs, such as the Niagara IceDogs (OHL), Welland Jr. Canadiens (GOJHL), and Brock University Badgers (USports).
