  1. I see what you did there
  2. Absolutely beautiful as always, @BladeMaiden!
  3. Helsinki, Finland - The Titans this season have defied every expectation thrown upon them. The team, after losing 3 key players from their Cup Finals appearance is sitting 3rd in the European Conference, 3 points behind 2nd placed London. The Titans have been getting points from everywhere, but a key superstar has gone quiet lately. Superstar Winger Patrik Laine, who has scored at a point/game for each of his last 2 seasons, has only 12 goals and 27 points in 36 games. His defensive play hasn't been good either, as he has been a liability in his own zone. He only has 1 point in his last 6 games. "I'm usually pretty confident even in slumps, but this has been a whole new thing for me. It's frustrating when your team drops games and you know you're playing like sh*t. I want to do everything to help Helsinki win, but I just don't know what has been up lately. I just haven't felt like myself." The now 22 year old Finn is 2 seasons removed from a 42 goal, 97 point season that saw him finish 9th in the league in scoring. He has one year left on his contract with the Titans, which raises some questions about his future with the organization. "I'm not worried about my contract situation or anything like that. I know what I'm capable of and I just need to play it one game at a time and hopefully find my rhythm again. In terms of my future in Helsinki, I'd love to stay in Helsinki. We're in a weird spot right now, but my future will be between me and management for the time being. I'm hopeful I can stick around though." (287 words)

  8. Sorry for your loss @MexicanCow123. If you need anything, my DMs are open.
  9. 1 year in the VHL complete!

  10. First of all, I want to say thank you to all of those who applied. It was a very hard decision to narrow this list down to just one person. After going through every application and considering all the options, the member I chose is....drum roll please.......................................................................................................................................
  11. Review: Wow, you've come a long way. The colour scheme and spread is great. The logo swap is clean, and the font does a good job to go with the colour scheme for the background. I think it being a purple colour would've looked better considering you play for Prague, but I digress. Well done Domg! 10/10!
  12. Review: This is a really well done sig. The colour swap is excellent, the logo swap is perfect, and the background is well done. If I were to make a suggestion, maybe next time go with a background that compliments Helsinki's blue better? All around, well done. 9.5/10
  13. I would apply but I don't want to lose my GMing rights @JigglyGumballs
  14. 1) Game 7 against Warsaw was amazing. The third period comeback and the OT winner was just an awesome time. 2) I've got Vaakanainen on my left @Jubo and rookie Nasherov on my right @Vat. Both are very good locker room guys and good players. 3) It's important. Guys who have been there can bring so much to a team. 4) So recently I got a General Manager spot in Minnesota. During my first time at the arena, I tried their popcorn. Best popcorn I've ever had. 5) Sometimes I just vibe to my playlist, but other times I like to play Poker. I'm pretty good at it, just ask Moreau @Frank. 6) VALORANT and NHL 21 are personal favourites of mine.

    Thanks for the talks @Zetterberg. @Rjdixon01 it was a pleasure having you in Minnesota, hoping you kill it with the Hounds. Welcome to Minnesota, @Anomalijs, excited to have you joining the squad!
  17. Hello VHL! I am looking to bring someone in as my AGM in Minnesota! There are a few things I'll be looking for in an AGM: 1. The ability to upload weekly press conferences, and post TPE opportunities. 2. The ability to promote locker room activity both on the forums and in the discord. 3. Access to STHS if I am unable to upload lines that day and to give me input on lines. 4. Help me with scouting for the draft. Even if you do not meet one of these requirements, it isn't the end of the world. Feel free to apply regardless, as I will be taking a look at all applicants. Reply to the thread and I will be sending out an interview to applicants within the next few days. I don't have the most management experience, but I hope to be a teacher for an AGM so they too can take on a GM role one day. I encourage everyone to apply!

    Definitely came as a shock to me. There were a lot of candidates who deserved the job too, but its so hard to choose just one. With that being said, excited for the opportunity to work with the Storm!
