  1. Things may not look the brightest, but the World shall come through! Also great article btw
  2. Basically, there's still too much uncertainty whether or not we should expand, and if we do, will we be able to have enough players in the future to maintain the number of teams in the M.
  3. Expansion was an idea VHLM GMs has talked about before, but as they discussed, they have no idea whether or not a good chunk of these new players coming would actually stay by the time they make the VHL. The VHL has just recently had a 4 team expansion as well. So I don't think the teams up there would consider expansion again anytime soon. The VHLM also had expanded to Miami just a couple of seasons ago. From what I know, people are still trying to figure out what to do. I personally want an expansion as well, but we got to consider whether or not there would be enough players in the M past this recent influx of recruits to justify an expansion.
  4. Y'know slapping Dil is a very enticing offer for those who are applying ?
  5. Respect for the effort in the brief text to what the players have done lol
  6. Before I announce the roster for this season's Team World, I first want to say that I'm very grateful to have been selected as GM for this team. I'm super excited that I got a chance to come back in a different way. I also want to give a huge thanks to @Zetterberg for helping me through this process. And without further ado... S74 WJC Team World Roster: Forwards: Jared Willis @BlueMaple Wolf Weiss @Matmenzinger Kasey Tamm @kesytamm Jeff Odinson @GoldGear88 Pistil Stamen @DMaximus Alek Andreshnikov @PuckPushers Joe Kelly @emidas Secel Keller @xsjack Theodore James St. Louis @Nick Kirkpatrick Defense: Bobby Wyman @Lefty_S Shawn Glade III @ShawnGlade L @gorlab Gabriel Akerstrom @Mason Goalies: Doug Dimmadome @Esso2264 Kevin Malone @chatfan036 Congratulations to all selected!

Here's the link to the discord, I will also send you the links individually as well. https://discord.gg/haxEkTu
  7. Not my fault everyone creates players that aren't world exclusive ?
  8. Watch Europe get FISTED ANALLY BY A CIRCUS MONKEY. Also thanks for the leftovers!!
  9. It's that time of the season again. The WJC is up and coming and Team World is finalizing it's roster. World has not been blessed with as many accolades compared to other teams, and yet me @Zetterberg aim to build off the success of last season and form a team that rivals all the rest. A team united under one banner. No matter where you are, where you come from, we are all united. Because We are World. And to all those other teams out there, don't expect us to back down without a fight.
  10. Damn he really is Patrik Laine but in the VHL. I wonder how much of a defensive liability he is now?
  11. It's a fun experience. Plus we get a fun field trip as well! Also can we get paid already? I'm not sure I can last the winter if this keeps up...
  12. Welcome to the VHL! If you have any questions or need any help, just feel free to ask me! Best Jiggs, Las Vegas Aces AGM
  13. It's you against the world, and we're coming for you.
  14. wait if you type s nubbed it gets changed lol
  15. Claiming Capped TPE on week ending 1/11
  16. So theme week arrives once more. This season's theme is making your own dream team. This is honestly something I wasn't really looking forward for. Mostly because I'll have to take a look at individual players and actually think what players would be good for a "dream team." At first I thought that I should do VHL. Looking at the greatest players of all time and then forming a team from there. Then I said fuck it, I'm doing a VHLM one with emphasis on recent memory. So let's just get on with it. And by recent memory, I mean S72 at the earliest. Adam Syreck - LW @Spade18 VHLM Career Stats: 222 GP, 150G, 247A, 397P, +224 So starting off with Syreck here. This guy was insane in S72 as he lead the league in points that season with 147. He had a total of 58 goals and 89 assists and absolutely tore it up. Career wise, he's nearly got 400 points in just 222 games. What's more insane is that he's a career +224. I think he would make an excellent addition to my recent VHLM dream team as he has had a great career so far. A winner of the Ethan Osborne, and Mitch Higgins as league MVP. He's even managed to maintain his over a point per game career in the VHL with the Chicago Phoenix. One of the 4 recent expansion teams. Venus Thightrap - C @BladeMaiden VHLM Career Stats: 94GP, 52G, 74A, 126P, +30 So the next choice here is Venus Thightrap, one of the key contributors of Houston's decently stacked roster last season. She never had as long of a VHLM career as Syreck did but did have an outstanding breakout season. Tied for second in points that season, her 125 point performance helped push her team to second in league standings. Her dynamic offense and physical game allowed her to bring in an intense, dominant game. She doesn't have any titles to her name but that doesn't matter much. Ever since she was drafted to Vancouver, she's been solid as well with 35 points in 39 games as she's currently tied for 5th in rookie scoring this season. Dakota Lamb - C @dlamb VHLM Career Stats: 144GP, 81G, 104A, 185P, +40 The Miami Marauders is the youngest VHLM team, and it's safe to say that Dakota Lamb is practically their franchise face during his time there. Back to back 90+ point seasons and both are with Miami. Heck they even have an award named after him. A pure scorer with 81 goals, 104 assists and 185 points during his 144 game career, he has always been exceeding expectations and brings his A game every time he's on the ice. And that can translate on the VHL level as well as he's currently the leader in points in terms of rookies with 47 in 40 games. A great contributor for a very young and promising Warsaw team. Alex Letang - D @Spartan VHLM Career Stats: 144GP, 30G, 140A, 170P, +90 Letang was again another player that played two full seasons with the same team and that was the Las Vegas Aces, to which Spartan is also the GM of. This playmaking defenseman has had a great breakout season in S72 with 114 points and 94 assists. Leading him to win the Vladimir Boomchenko award for most assists in a season. Letang is a great 200 ft game player as he's not only been a great assist man, but also an excellent defender on his own end. So far he's been able to translate that to the VHL with the Moscow Menace as he has 95 points in 111 VHL games. A more than capable blue-liner for the Menace. Riley Knight Gee - D @KnightRiley VHLM Career Stats: 212 GP, 75G, 208A, 284P, -47 Don't let the -47 rating fool you, RKG has been one of the best offensive defenseman in the VHLM of recent. And one I personally think deserved some hardware but was FISTED ANALLY BY A CIRCUS MONKEY. The only reason he's a career minus player is because he was in pretty bad Houston teams during his career. Another one who I think is a franchise face when I think of the bulls as he has spent three fucking seasons there. He lead the entire league in points in S73 with a whopping 140. The guy can score. He can also defend as he has a career 441 shots blocked and 421 hits. Did I mention that he's under 6ft in height? I am actually pretty honoured to be his teammate at one point. As I'm pretty sure he holds the franchise record for most points in a single season. He's been pretty decent in the VHL with Prague but his VHLM career is something to be remembered. Ajay Krishna - G @Hooperorama VHLM Career Stats: 144GP, 88W, 48L, 8OTL, 0.893 SV%, 2.90 GAA, 14 SO Before moving up to the VHL, Ajay Krishna was the face of Ottawa. Again a player who's spent their entire VHLM career with one team, what makes Krishna outstanding is his record. 88 wins, and only 48 losses. You rarely see VHLM goalies have a SV% above .900, and yet Krishna was close. 14 career shutouts in the VHLM is no easy feat as well. His absolute giant 6'8, 220lbs frame allows him to practically be a brick wall, and again he's now part of a very promising Warsaw team. So that's my theme week article, if you think anyone else of note should be featured, let me know! Anyways I won't be able to claim the capped portion until a couple of weeks for now so... uh well. Laters?
  17. I'm coming for your leftovers Matty ?
  18. Las Vegas Aces Press Conference 5/10 - 11/10 Answer these questions for 2 Capped TPE 1) Our production has slowed as of late. We're winning one game and then losing the next. What do you think needs to change? 2) What do you hope to achieve when you finally make it to the VHL? For those who have already been drafted by a VHL team so far, do you think that you will achieve it with your current team? 3) What makes the Las Vegas Aces great as a team? The chemistry? The player's skill? 4) Which VHLM team would you consider a dark horse candidate for the Cup? 5) Tea or Coffee? Which do you prefer? 6) What other awards are you aiming for apart from the Cup?
