Honestly we used to do a top prospects game (so no one in their later seasons, just draftees) for the VHLM so if the @VHLM Commissioners want to select some teams (I don’t think it’s worth the full voting process) for it and you wanted to do one you could.

Git Gud?

Bassolino retired.

To be fair that filter hasn’t been “relevant” in 8 years haha

Win #600! Congrats @Banackock

I think I got them all but a post helps so that I don't need to cross-reference your roster with the sim engine. @Will any chance this could be automated?

I don’t think we have official rules in that but I was thinking the other day that we should. You could theoretically put your backup in and set it to pull the goalie after 1 goal. Not sure if that only applies the first time though. Might just swap your goalie every goal.

I’ve been around a long time; I don’t exactly hide that fact from anyone. So I have seen the league grow from 8 original teams to 8 plus a handful of VHLM teams (I can never really keep track of how many) to 10. After that of course back down to 8 and now we’re going to 9. It’s been a lot of change over the years as our recruitment has warranted different amounts of teams; at least we thought it did. Honestly, back in S30 when we expanded to 10 teams initially it was a bad idea. People were excited of course, after all a lot of members had been asking for more teams since the league first began and 30 seasons seemed like a long time at that point. But really, it wasn’t good. We didn’t have nearly the amount of players to support 10 teams and recruitment efforts were, less than stellar. Honestly @Kendrick (RIP) was pretty good for it and others such as @Green could be counted on with the right incentives but most drafts consisted of maybe 1 good round and that was basically all re-creates. When @Will and I decided to contract the league a few seasons ago it was honestly for the survival of the league and I believe that. Teams were spread way too thin and we were dying because of it. Jump ahead a few years and we have the 9th VHL team entering the fray. Honestly when it was first proposed I thought people were crazy. We basically just contracted, why expand now? But honestly, I’ve turned around on it. The numbers don’t lie and ultimately our recruiting efforts are going so well with so many new first gens (huge kudos @Recruitment Crew ) that it’s a good time to bring in another expansion. Not 2 of course, we made that mistake, but I think 1 will work out well. Plus that logo is sexy as hell. People are excited as they were last time, obviously since expansion is exciting, but this time at least I think that there’s valid reason to be; just as there was valid reason to expand. We didn’t expand for fun because everyone kept asking for it. We expanded because the league is thriving and needs the space. That’s the best reason we could hope for and I’ll gladly expand more if the trend continues.

That’s why I always did it haha. Love that shade of blue and the polar bear logo. It’s an ECHL logo I believe, or at least itbused to be.

Heads up @McWolf, you have once again reached the roster limit so I can't process this until you release someone.

Funnily enough in my young sim league days when I actually enjoyed GMing (never wanted to do it in the VHL) my go to team was the Alaska Aces. Back when stealing logos was still the norm.

I’ll leave this in @DollarAndADream‘s hands but I don’t feel like this really showcases much effort to count as a PT, let alone one worth double. This appears to be a stock photo of Vancouver with 2 lines of text.

Heads up @diamond_ace, you sent an email with a bunch of weirdly worded instructions and mention of new lines but there were no new lines attached so nothing was changed for you. Please try to resend.
