    Next season will mark my eighth season in the VHL/VHLM. I started my journey not knowing how it would turn out or even how long I would last in the league. Over these eight seasons, I have learned so much from so many different people and have even slotted into an administrative role in the VHLM with Miami. This message is mostly just going to be a trip through my career as well as sort of a thank you to some of the people who taught me the most and got me motivated to continue playing. The end of this after I talk about my player and their career will have some extra stuff such as my future player as well as some jobs I am looking to get. Enjoy   
     
       I’d like to start from the beginning. I first entered free agency mid-season seventy-two. I was brand new to literally everything and had no idea what I was doing. I was soon approached by the general manager of the San Diego Marlins and they asked me if I would like to join the team. I of course said absolutely because who wouldn't want to get signed to a team and play some games when you are just entering the league! I didn’t actually get to play any games with San Diego but just being in the locker room and learning the basics was enough for me.
     
       After season seventy-two ended I was put into the VHLM draft. I don’t think anyone really saw me as having any potential, to be honest, and I do not blame them in the slightest. This showed since I was drafted seventy-third overall in the season seventy-three draft. I think that’s pretty neat that my draft number was the same as the season but that’s probably just me. I was drafted to the Las Vegas Aces and before I even had time to look at the team I was traded to Mexico City. Despite searching for the exact trade and the details I couldn’t actually find it. Anyways this is where I met the two people who have had with no doubt the greatest impact on my career. Those two are Hylands and Rory I really hope I remember to put their @ here when I fully post this. They were my general manager and assistant general manager while I was in Mexico City. They taught me everything I need to know to become a top player and without them, it’s very possible I don’t make it this far to even be writing this article. Now to get into my stats for this season since I actually say ice time. When I say saw ice time I am not lying but I did only play in four games and some of those I didn’t even start but came in later when we were getting blown out. In those four games, I had a .894 save percentage with 4.47 goals against average and totaled 188 minutes played. I also had a record of 0-2-0. This was mostly a learning season for me so again this didn’t bother me.
     
       Now for season seventy-four. I actually became the starter this season and the team was decent in front of me. Thinking back this is about when I started really putting in the work to become the best possible player I could and it started paying off. I ended up playing in sixty total games this season which still blows my mind how I went from four games to sixty in the matter of one off-season. I played infinitely better as well having a .900 save percentage with 2.84 goals against average and playing a total of 3,635 minutes. I also had a record of 28-25-7. We also happened to make the playoffs this season and I was of course the starter. It did not go well at all though since we went one in four and we were knocked out in the first round. Again this season was a really fun experience and I started getting tons of playing time and even some playoff experience!
       
       Season seventy-five would be my last season in the VHLM. The team we had built for this season was a serious cup contender and the locker room was buzzing each and every day. It to this day is the most active I have ever seen in a locker room and some of the most fun I’ve had in the league. I was still the starter and I was also named the captain of the team. I played a few more games this season than last as well. I had a VHLM career-best .902 save percentage, 2.49 goals against average, and 1,874 minutes played. I also had a record of 47-12-5 which was incredible. Since this team was so well put together we had a very very deep playoff run. We made it through the first round with ease and then made it past the semi-finals. We made it all the way to the cup finals and well of course we lost but hey we did amazing. Only missed winning the cup by two games. I’d say that’s something to be proud of.
     
       Season seventy-six was my first season in the VHL. I know realized I had completely forgotten to mention my VHL draft in the previous season so why not talk about it now. I was still at this point, not a top-level prospect that people were dying to have on their team. I ended up sliding down to fifty-seventh overall in the VHL draft by the Vancouver Wolves. Now back to this season. I was the backup goalie at this point since there was an absolute legend in the net for them. The previous season the Wolves actually won the cup so while I was busy losing the cup in the VHLM the team that drafted me was busy winning the cup in the VHL. I did start a decent amount of games this season which I was okay with and to be honest I did much better than expected. I managed a .919 save percentage with 2.62 goals against average playing 915 minutes as well as having a 12-2-2 record. Now, these stats seem hall of fame level but to be honest I only player the really bad teams while our team was still elite. 
       
       Season Seventy-seven was a weird season. I was not the backup goalie but I wasn’t necessarily the starter either. I ended up splitting time with my partner goalie almost evenly but I did get all the harder teams which did sort of bum me out some. The team was also on the decline at this point so the starts aren't the greatest. The team was still good enough to stay competitive though which is always great. This season was overall pretty un-eventful so my stats were. A .914 save percentage, 3.32 goals against average, played 1,822 minutes, and had a record of 14-13-5. Overall this season could’ve been better but we did manage to make the playoffs. We got knocked out in round one sadly but it was nice to make it in the first place.
     
       Season Seventy-eight was when I got the go-to be full-time. The team was in full rebuild mode and the record shows. I don’t think anyone had any real explications for us and I don’t think even our players did either. I played sixty-seven games in total but since the team wasn’t the best in front of me it was a long painful season. I had a .914 save percentage, 3.84 goals against average, played 3,879 minutes, and had a record of 23-34-7. That record is actually ten times better than what it could’ve been since near the end of the season we went on a bit of a hot streak winning a lot of games. We obviously didn’t make the playoffs this season considering the record but we were in good shape to get some great picks in the draft. Definitely, a write-off season for everyone on the team including the managers. We would all like to forget this season.
     
       Season seventy-nine is actually the season that I’m writing this in. It’s still early but the team is already doing so much better and I believe we can make the playoffs this season. We might not necessarily be a cup contender but crazy things can happen in the playoffs. I currently have a .918 save percentage, 3.76 goals against average, 844 minutes played, and a record of 9-5-0. My personal performance is on the upswing and my goal for the end of the season is to have a .920 save percentage to boost my career stats. We are in a very good position for next season to make a deep push for the cup
     
       Season eighty...I haven’t actually played this season yet but The expectations are for me to have a career season and for us to win the cup. There’s not much left to say here so let’s go to the reason for writing this.
     
       Now I am switching out of my player’s sort of point of view and switching to real-life me. I am writing this because season eighty will be my last season with this player. I know I technically have one more season which is season eighty-one available to me but I am really wanting to move on from this player once my contract is up with Vancouver next season. It’s been so much fun but I am so excited for the future. I made so many mistakes with this player which caused my potential to be cut down and I couldn’t become the player I wanted to be because of it. The things I messed up the most were mostly at the beginning not knowing what a points task fully was or being too embarrassed to write something for a virtual hockey simulator. Going in next time I will know everything I need to know from the start and can make this player the greatest of all time. And some tips for new guys is to find a point tasks you enjoy and roll with it. You don’t need to be the best at it but just putting in the effort of trying will be enough to get you those sweet tpe. And speaking of this new player I already know they won’t be a goalie again. I am really stuck between a Winger or a Defensemen. If I go winger I want to be the greatest setup man to ever live and if I go for a defenseman I want to break the shot blocks records and plus-minus records. I have plenty of time to decide though. I also have not given up on this player and will still be updating them continuously throughout the season up until they retire. I will also do an article once he’s retired going over season eighty as well as the career stats.
     
       The last thing I want to touch on is the administrative side of things. I’ve just recently become an assistant general manager in the VHLM for the Miami Marauders. So far it’s been fun and I think I plan on being the assistant general manager there until my player retires and then trying my hand at a general manager job if one opens in the VHLM. Things look very bright for the future and I wish everyone good luck in their careers. P.S. someone on the updaters job please retire so I can apply and become one. I eventually want to be an updater and a general manager so I can do fewer point tasks per week so I can avoid burnout as much as possible. So please retire or I might just have to hunt you down and for early retirement on you.

I played infinitely better as well having a .900 save percentage with 2.84 goals against average and playing a total of 3,635 minutes. I also had a record of 28-25-7. We also happened to make the playoffs this season and I was of course the starter. It did not go well at all though since we went one in four and we were knocked out in the first round. Again this season was a really fun experience and I started getting tons of playing time and even some playoff experience!
       
       Season seventy-five would be my last season in the VHLM. The team we had built for this season was a serious cup contender and the locker room was buzzing each and every day. It to this day is the most active I have ever seen in a locker room and some of the most fun I’ve had in the league. I was still the starter and I was also named the captain of the team. I played a few more games this season than last as well. I had a VHLM career-best .902 save percentage, 2.49 goals against average, and 1,874 minutes played. I also had a record of 47-12-5 which was incredible. Since this team was so well put together we had a very very deep playoff run. We made it through the first round with ease and then made it past the semi-finals. We made it all the way to the cup finals and well of course we lost but hey we did amazing. Only missed winning the cup by two games. I’d say that’s something to be proud of.
     
       Season seventy-six was my first season in the VHL. I know realized I had completely forgotten to mention my VHL draft in the previous season so why not talk about it now. I was still at this point, not a top-level prospect that people were dying to have on their team. I ended up sliding down to fifty-seventh overall in the VHL draft by the Vancouver Wolves. Now back to this season. I was the backup goalie at this point since there was an absolute legend in the net for them. The previous season the Wolves actually won the cup so while I was busy losing the cup in the VHLM the team that drafted me was busy winning the cup in the VHL. I did start a decent amount of games this season which I was okay with and to be honest I did much better than expected. I managed a .919 save percentage with 2.62 goals against average playing 915 minutes as well as having a 12-2-2 record. Now, these stats seem hall of fame level but to be honest I only player the really bad teams while our team was still elite. 
       
       Season Seventy-seven was a weird season. I was not the backup goalie but I wasn’t necessarily the starter either. I ended up splitting time with my partner goalie almost evenly but I did get all the harder teams which did sort of bum me out some. The team was also on the decline at this point so the starts aren't the greatest. The team was still good enough to stay competitive though which is always great. This season was overall pretty un-eventful so my stats were. A .914 save percentage, 3.32 goals against average, played 1,822 minutes, and had a record of 14-13-5. Overall this season could’ve been better but we did manage to make the playoffs. We got knocked out in round one sadly but it was nice to make it in the first place.
     
       Season Seventy-eight was when I got the go-to be full-time. The team was in full rebuild mode and the record shows. I don’t think anyone had any real explications for us and I don’t think even our players did either. I played sixty-seven games in total but since the team wasn’t the best in front of me it was a long painful season. I had a .914 save percentage, 3.84 goals against average, played 3,879 minutes, and had a record of 23-34-7. That record is actually ten times better than what it could’ve been since near the end of the season we went on a bit of a hot streak winning a lot of games. We obviously didn’t make the playoffs this season considering the record but we were in good shape to get some great picks in the draft. Definitely, a write-off season for everyone on the team including the managers. We would all like to forget this season.
     
       Season seventy-nine is actually the season that I’m writing this in. It’s still early but the team is already doing so much better and I believe we can make the playoffs this season. We might not necessarily be a cup contender but crazy things can happen in the playoffs. I currently have a .918 save percentage, 3.76 goals against average, 844 minutes played, and a record of 9-5-0. My personal performance is on the upswing and my goal for the end of the season is to have a .920 save percentage to boost my career stats. We are in a very good position for next season to make a deep push for the cup
     
       Season eighty...I haven’t actually played this season yet but The expectations are for me to have a career season and for us to win the cup. There’s not much left to say here so let’s go to the reason for writing this.
     
       Now I am switching out of my player’s sort of point of view and switching to real-life me. I am writing this because season eighty will be my last season with this player. I know I technically have one more season which is season eighty-one available to me but I am really wanting to move on from this player once my contract is up with Vancouver next season. It’s been so much fun but I am so excited for the future. I made so many mistakes with this player which caused my potential to be cut down and I couldn’t become the player I wanted to be because of it. The things I messed up the most were mostly at the beginning not knowing what a points task fully was or being too embarrassed to write something for a virtual hockey simulator. Going in next time I will know everything I need to know from the start and can make this player the greatest of all time. And some tips for new guys is to find a point tasks you enjoy and roll with it. You don’t need to be the best at it but just putting in the effort of trying will be enough to get you those sweet tpe. And speaking of this new player I already know they won’t be a goalie again. I am really stuck between a Winger or a Defensemen. If I go winger I want to be the greatest setup man to ever live and if I go for a defenseman I want to break the shot blocks records and plus-minus records. I have plenty of time to decide though. I also have not given up on this player and will still be updating them continuously throughout the season up until they retire. I will also do an article once he’s retired going over season eighty as well as the career stats.
     
       The last thing I want to touch on is the administrative side of things. I’ve just recently become an assistant general manager in the VHLM for the Miami Marauders. So far it’s been fun and I think I plan on being the assistant general manager there until my player retires and then trying my hand at a general manager job if one opens in the VHLM. Things look very bright for the future and I wish everyone good luck in their careers. P.S. someone on the updaters job please retire so I can apply and become one. I eventually want to be an updater and a general manager so I can do fewer point tasks per week so I can avoid burnout as much as possible. So please retire or I might just have to hunt you down and for early retirement on you.

    Next season will mark my eighth season in the VHL/VHLM. I started my journey not knowing how it would turn out or even how long I would last in the league. Over these eight seasons, I have learned so much from so many different people and have even slotted into an administrative role in the VHLM with Miami. This message is mostly just going to be a trip through my career as well as sort of a thank you to some of the people who taught me the most and got me motivated to continue playing. The end of this after I talk about my player and their career will have some extra stuff such as my future player as well as some jobs I am looking to get. Enjoy   
     
       I’d like to start from the beginning. I first entered free agency mid-season seventy-two. I was brand new to literally everything and had no idea what I was doing. I was soon approached by the general manager of the San Diego Marlins and they asked me if I would like to join the team. I of course said absolutely because who wouldn't want to get signed to a team and play some games when you are just entering the league! I didn’t actually get to play any games with San Diego but just being in the locker room and learning the basics was enough for me.
     
       After season seventy-two ended I was put into the VHLM draft. I don’t think anyone really saw me as having any potential, to be honest, and I do not blame them in the slightest. This showed since I was drafted seventy-third overall in the season seventy-three draft. I think that’s pretty neat that my draft number was the same as the season but that’s probably just me. I was drafted to the Las Vegas Aces and before I even had time to look at the team I was traded to Mexico City. Despite searching for the exact trade and the details I couldn’t actually find it. Anyways this is where I met the two people who have had with no doubt the greatest impact on my career. Those two are Hylands and Rory I really hope I remember to put their @ here when I fully post this. They were my general manager and assistant general manager while I was in Mexico City. They taught me everything I need to know to become a top player and without them, it’s very possible I don’t make it this far to even be writing this article. Now to get into my stats for this season since I actually say ice time. When I say saw ice time I am not lying but I did only play in four games and some of those I didn’t even start but came in later when we were getting blown out. In those four games, I had a .894 save percentage with 4.47 goals against average and totaled 188 minutes played. I also had a record of 0-2-0. This was mostly a learning season for me so again this didn’t bother me.
     
       Now for season seventy-four. I actually became the starter this season and the team was decent in front of me. Thinking back this is about when I started really putting in the work to become the best possible player I could and it started paying off. I ended up playing in sixty total games this season which still blows my mind how I went from four games to sixty in the matter of one off-season. I played infinitely better as well having a .900 save percentage with 2.84 goals against average and playing a total of 3,635 minutes. I also had a record of 28-25-7.

    General overview of everything so far
     
    Okay so this is going to consist of a few topics so if it jumps around from beginning of my career to later on that's why. I will mostly talk about my VHLM time, How I've been doing tasks, things I regret, and  My VHL time.
     
    To start out with my VHL experience I was drafted to the Las Vegas Aces then traded to the Mexico City Kings basically instantly. I was drafted way down the order as the 73rd overall pick which looking back at it now was an absolute steal for Vegas and then a steam for Mexico City. I do sometimes wonder how my career would be different if I never was traded from Vegas. Maybe I wouldn't of caught onto how things worked as fast and gave up or maybe I would've been even more motivated to do well. Guess we'll never know but I can say Mexico City was a great place for me to end up. The locker room was always active and we messed around a ton. We even went to the finals in my final season in the VHLM but we lost. That moment is still the closest I've ever been to winning anything thus far and I look back at what could've been my first cup. I give this experience a solid 10/10.
     
    When I started out I was a welfare plus player for sure. I didn't really know what I was doing entirely but I eventually started writing articles like this to get myself up to a capped out per week player. After writing for a while I got burnt out and sort of ran out of ideas. So as a result I eventually fell back to a welfare plus player. Last season I started experimenting with graphics. I was horrible at them and to be honest I still kind of am but I have improved for sure. I have been capping out each week for the most part except last week because I could always go for a week vacation. I plan on doing even more graphics for the season to come and hope I can end my career out with a bang.
     
    My biggest regret is related to the previous topic. Not capping out for that period of time for sure dropped my ceiling significantly. And looking back at it I was being stupid and I wish I could go back in time and kick myself in the ass for being lazy. I guess some other regrets I could have is especially recently I haven't been as active in the Locker Room of Vancouver. It’s been pretty slow there since we've been having a very very rough season.
     
    My VHL time has been less eventful than my VHLM time. I joined the team the season after they won the cup so the team was on the down swing. I have basically been here during the rebuild and I just hope I can be a part of the team when we can win a cup before I retire. And speaking of retirement...I have two seasons left on my contract and an additional season after as a free agent so my time is ticking. The VHL experience has been a solid 7/10

    6. Team Western Europe 🇪🇺
    GM @Seabass
    OFF 2.5 DEF 4.5 GOA 3.5 (10.5)
    Key Departures: Kaberle, Havlova, Lesieur
    Key Arrivals: Strauss, McCloud, Tretiak, Phil The Rock Johnson
    Finished: 6th
    _______________________________________________________________________________________________
         Western Europe is the the true underdog and they ranked that way during the last tournament, although they haven't been able to put together a roster of stars the team has been able to shine in certain areas and it seems they're going with the same approach, smart plays and excellent defending. Players like Chris Hylands who changed positions and the leagues top defender Roque Davis should get the job done behind the scenes but concerns to compete during the full 60 minutes with a new goaltender and lack of offense will only hurt them during the tournament. If they can weather the storm by outplaying the other team during special team attempts and maintaining composure, expect to see a handful of upsets and a possible medal round appearance if they can be consistent or they'll be last again.
     
    5. Team USA
    GM @a_Ferk
    OFF 4 DEF 3 GOA 4 (11)
    Key Departures: Green, Graves, King
    Key Arrivals: Lose, McLaren, Tristan
    Finished: 4th
    _______________________________________________________________________________________________
         Losing a little bit of offense and defense since we last saw them the Americans were still able to put together a decent team. Shooters like Campbell, Landry II and Winter will be exciting to watch, hard hitting defense from Giant, Marsh will be worth the ticket and solid goaltending from Stone Wolski should do the trick. The lack of star talent is only going to tire everybody out early so they have to strike quick, make zero mistakes and utilized all their skills if they want to have a chance versus some of the more skilled teams.
     
     
    4. Team Nordic 🇸🇪
    GM @Xflexz
    OFF 5 DEF 3.5 GOA 3 (11.5)
    Key Departures: Jokinen, Manzer, Lahtinen, Tallinder, Jensen, Vikingstad, Shields
    Key Arrivals: Zetterstrom, Thightrap, O. Sandstrom, Nousiainen, Dear, Thornton, B. Sandstrom
    Finished: 3rd 🥉
    _______________________________________________________________________________________________
         Team Nordic was one of the best teams assembled during the S76 tournament but most of the top talents are now sitting back and watching their team at home waiting for the HoF to call them. Don't expect a slow rebuild for them though as we see a bunch of young studs coming together to fill in gaps left from players they looked up to, league leaders like Aloe Dear, Onde Sandstrom and Linus Zetterstrom to name a few. Nordic has pretty competitive team except on the defensive side of things where they have to use speed and puck handling to execute, stopping any mishaps in their own end and hopefully outscoring the other team.
     
    3. Mercenaries 💀
    GM @Alex_J32
    OFF 3.5 DEF 3.5 GOA 5 (12.0)
    Key Departures: Socks, Thightrap, Gumballs, Dear, Rune, Dood, Volchenkov, Sandstrom
    Key Arrivals: Su, Brown, Lite, Green, Jungkok, Kaberle, Eagles, Welch
    Finished: 1st 🥇
    _______________________________________________________________________________________________
         They won the Gold Medal last time around and shocked the rest of the nations after dominating the better teams but I don't think they're as ready as they were during the S76 campaign. Losing big names like Sandstrom, Dear hurt they're goal production and the defensive unit switching from shooting to stay at home doesn't help shots on net. They proved everybody wrong last time and have magic hands protecting the net with an acrobat like Jean Pierre Camus ready to shut everything down so you can never really count them out in close games, specially with the attempt to changes things up from trading shots against better shooters hoping their goaltender stands on his head to blocking shots and holding the fort until they get a chance.
     
    2. Team World 🗺️
    GM @Ledge and DairyOFF 4.5 DEF 4.5 GOA 3.5 (12.5)
    Key Departures: Jungkok, Oferson, Block
    Key Arrivals: Stamen, Tsujimoto, Kramerev
    Finished: 5th
    _______________________________________________________________________________________________
         The World pretty much stayed the same in roster structure as the newcomers make up for the losses except they have an even better goaltender in Dimmadome who has made a ton of strides since we saw him during his rookie days. Veterans like Jim Bob, Latrell Mitchell are also fan favorites whose playing in their last season so make sure you watch closely as they aim to make a few more highlights. They didn't make the medal games last time but we should see physical shifts and tons of battles because Team World is more than ready this time.
     
    1. Team Canada 🇨🇦
    GM @Ricer13
    OFF 5 DEF 4.5 GOA 4 (13.5)
    Key Departures: Brown, Su, Rice, Jubis
    Key Arrivals: Perry, Gobeil, Socks, Dood, Tonn
    Finished: 2nd 🥈
    _______________________________________________________________________________________________
         Being a top team is always a goal for Team Canada and going into the this tournament they definitely build another tough squad to play against. After finishing 2nd a couple of seasons ago the Canadians haven't changed much with activity and they still sit at the top of the food chain in the VHL, exchanging a fair amount of stars all the way down the line up from last time we still see big names like SS Hornet and Erik Killinger ready to lead the way while newcomers Jacob Tonn, Groovy Dood are thirsty to leave their mark. With a complete roster and momentum from a disappointing finish last time, we give Canada the early edge going into the tournament.
