  1. For what it’s worth as well @Beaviss, @Will and I were talking about this yesterday. We thought we had the upgraded one with mobile but we might be mistaken or it might just be disabled for some reason. We’re looking into it.
  2. Goalies can be the most rewarding position to play but also the most frustrating. The randomness of STHS always seems like it hits them the hardest.
  3. To be fair your insult didn’t make any sense...
  4. Thing is, overall and potential can only really be measured in the playoffs based off regular season performance. That’s the point I’m trying to make. Logically speaking Helsinki should have done worse in the season since they have like 4 players. But since they didn’t it’s easy to assume their playoffs would go well to because that’s the predictor we have.
  5. Only my last two. I was averaging just under a cup per player before that.
  6. I don’t need convincing and I’m not making excuses. I recognize that STHS can do weird things in the playoffs. All I’m saying is that based on the stats we had seen in the regular season this should have been a blowout in the other direction. Maybe things were fucked up, maybe STHS is just random, I don’t know. But the fact is that based off what we knew going into this series the Toronto offense, defenseman, and goalie should have been stronger. That’s just based on what we saw in the regular season. You won and I congratulate you for that but I’m hardly trying to make excuses. I’m just trying to say that based off the regular season there’s no reason this should have happened.
  7. @tfong I have explained this to you before. Discord is a better chat, there’s no denying that. But from everything I have read they broke embedding years ago and people don’t want to or don’t think to go off-site for chat. The whole point of chat is for it to be easier, quicker, and more convenient than PMing. Having to go to another site, register for it, and remember to have it open every time you want to be on the VHL isn’t easier, quicker, or more convenient. We tried Discord and proved that people don’t use it. Investing extra time into it doesn’t make sense. I’m not saying it isn’t superior, I’m saying that our members dont prefer it. A corvette is a better car than a Yaris but if you live in a city with constant traffic and no room to move the Yaris makes more sense. If it’s possible to embed it then maybe we can try to make that an option but the lack of single login is still a pain. What extra features would we realistically gain from it?
  8. And the career of Sokolov officially comes to an end. A fitting end really with a pile of disappointment that matches the career he had. I slumped randomly every season and underperformed for no reason; basically how these playoffs went. You’re having a hell of a run Seattle, aim not trying to take that away from you, but your playoff performance simply doesn’t add up with how you performed in the regular season.
  9. This is the first time I've been on a computer instead of mobile since the move. Seeing chat back warms my heart. Time for @Bring Back Chat to re-create I'm thinking.

  10. Really hoping this becomes like last season. Goes back and forth the entire time except games 6 and 7 going the same way. Seems like Seattle was hiding their offence all season.
  11. Week of: Mar 26-Apr 1 Questions Asked: Mats Johnsson (x2), Samuel Gate (x3) Answers
  12. Fun fact, I never noticed how similar to your name I made mine: so that’s fun haha. Anyway, onto the questions. 1. How has your season with Seattle been compared to your seasons with Calgary? 2. Seattle’s scorers appear to have heated up in the playoffs. Why do you think that is? What was the issue during the regular season?
  13. 1. While it’s very unlikely, how much would you enjoy if the same team in either the VHLM or VHL could draft us? It’s been awhile since we’ve been together I believe. 2. With Victor re-creating, do you still believe you and I to be the top 2 in the S61 draft? 3. As a defensive defenseman, do you appreciate the chance to receive the Wylde award now that the Labatte has been split or do you believe your chances were fine regardless?
  14. Honest answer: I wanted the cup. It sounds selfish but I’m being honest, Yukon looked to have the best chance so I was going to take it. I only expect to have maybe to shots at the Founder’s Cup with only one being my choice of destination so I’m going to make sure I jump on it. I would never say any team is a shoe-in. Anything can happen in the playoffs. While our regular season was pretty dominant there’s no denying that the playoffs are a different beast so we’re just taking things one day at a time. It’s good to think you’re going to win; it’s dangerous to think you can’t lose. So I’m going in thinking that everyone has a chance. I intend on being a sniper, that’s what I have always been growing up. However sometimes plans don’t work out that way in the VHL. My agent Mr. Beketov was always a sniper and now has the assist award named after him so you never know what can happen in the VHL.
  15. Last season the Seattle Bears best the Toronto Legion in 7 games to move onto the Continental Cup Final. This season they needed a wildcard round to get there but the matchup is just as heated as it has been in the past with the two high scoring teams tied at 2 games a piece after 4. After Seattle’s slumping regular season the rivalry between the two teams had cooled off slightly but it looks to be heavily re-ignited in the playoffs, especially with Seattle’s forward core having finally woken up. With this being his last shot at the cup, Toronto forward Roman Sokolov has this to say, “Obviously we weren’t expecting to breeze past them, Seattle is a tough team. We were definitely hoping that their scoring wouldn’t wake up like this though. Their forward code can be scary when they are on and they are definitely on right now. We’re just focusing on the next 2 games and pushing to get this done in 6. With these two teams game 7 really could go either way and we don’t want to see that happen.”
  16. You’ ve used his one before. Check the claimed sigs PM I sent you and @DollarAndADream awhile ago. You may replace it if you wish.
  17. There’s a difference between shit talking and targeted attacks and you know it. Has nothing to do with the target. What @der meister is doing is perfectly acceptable.
  18. For his role in an altercation (which has since been hidden) @boubabi has been put on post moderation for 24 hours. In addition, for abusing mod powers given to him for the HoF move he has been given a 1 week PT ban. This means that he may earn no TPE for the week of April 2nd to 8th. This was delayed because the server move caused an error with the forum that prevented us from editing members.
  19. 4 assists, even if it was a losing effort; robbed of a star IMO.
  20. @Tyler do it and you’re banned
  21. Just an FYI, while some guests are legit a solid portion of them are just search engine spiders so they basically just comb over random topics.

    Welcome!

    Maybe it’s picky for some of it’s a cache issue? Redirecting for me as well.
  23. Bears seriously prove their scoring prowess in games 2 and 3. Like god damn they woke up. Rematch from last season boys!
  24. Well, I lost my press conference, 590 article, and update from earlier. This is what I get for doing them in the day of the move I guess.

      @DollarAndADream basically the backup they gave us was from the middle of the night so essentially anything that happened yesterday morning / afternoon was wiped out.

      I never did anything too important I don't think. Pretty sure just replied to some quotes. :lol:
