That is true. If Seattle has gotten first there would have been a draw for 2nd. If Toronto did there would have been a draw for third. So you are correct and I was clearly drunk.

No idea. There’s always a risk of dropping 1 place except for the team that goes into the lottery in 4th.

To be fair getting first overall was literally the only way you were moving up in the draft so it’s not like you had great odds.

Riga’s Dunamic duo is looking to get even stronger for sure.

Obviously that’s the biggest hurtle and we will try to remove it as much as possible but I try to look at it as actually saving us time. Like yeah, you have to go in twice, but they probably get into the aim faster overall. Let’s say I put in my update on a Wednesday, by Thursday morning it’s likely approved and I can apply it. By Friday’s sim it’s in. Not every time but within a few days at least. By comparison, the old system, if you update on Wednesday you “apply” it immediately but then you wait until Sunday for it to hit your player page and then up to another week or more sometimes before it goes into the actual sim. So the wait went from a week or more to a matter of days between doing your update and seeing the results. Well worth to inconvenience I would say.

We knew that we couldn’t please everyone with it but having it 1 click away was as easy as we could do. Personally I think the benefits far and above outweigh the inconvenience but there will always be people resistant to change. I’m sorry to hear you feel that change warrants an actual retirement but ultimately the league cannot stay the same forever, it must move into the future if it intends on growing. Doing things the same way they were done in 2005 wasn’t sustainable. People were resistant to STHS at the beginning too because it was new, now everyone uses it or some version of it for their specific sport. I imagine in time an update tool like ours will be the same thing. Less work, more reward. Anyway, hopefully in time you can embrace the change. For now I just hope you can enjoy your time without having a player.

Just an FYI, I get emailed when someone responds to one of my topics so you don’t need to tag me but I digress. I guess I didn’t really make myself clear. I don’t mean just sponsoring a stream or getting a shoutout like we did from YouTube. I mean an actual presence. VHL members, streaming on an official VHL account. Game doesn’t even matter, just getting our name and brand recognition out there.

Sorry about the processing time but it’s 12:30, I’m going to bed. Anyway, we’re back in CoD after a month long hiatus to play a few matches and record a very quick CoDCast. Lot of questions in this one though as I answer questions from @Quik, @tfong, @jacobaa19, @der meister, and @Beaviss

It could have gone better but it also could have gone worse. Obviously I did start very hot but I wish I could have finished off stronger. We got shutout a lot in our last 15-20 games and I also went on a massive cold streak so I’m disappointed with how the season ended. However I finished with over 30 goals in my rookie season and I believe led all forwards in Shots Blocked so personally I can’t complain too much. I don’t know if we necessarily need to make any moves so to speak right now, I think we just need to be smart with our assets and keep getting as many of them as we can. Obviously picking up a veteran player or something right now would be a complete waste but we’ve got a top 2 pick in the upcoming draft so that could definitely turn into a very strong player for the future of the league. I think youth is going to be key for us so if we stay young and keep drafting well I think we’ll slowly become a very nice looking destination to potential free agents which can make a huge difference. Right now I’m focussing on improving my puck handling. Overall my build has been coming along very nicely and I feel like I have a good mix of shooting, skating, and defensive play. Puck Handling is decent but it could definitely be better so that’s what I’m focussing on right now.
