  1. I think it's only fair, but I'll still be playing games for the Wranglers so Ricer doesn't have a heart attack.
  2. I'm so ready to join the VHL now
  3. Hi Minion, the Marlins are gonna be REALLY bad for the rest of the season, but if you want a starting position, I'm your guy! quote this and reply with #jointhebigfish and I'll send you a contract!
  4. Welcome! I'm the GM on the San Diego Marlins, and I have so many minutes to offer you! You can play on every line, and although we may not be great this season, I can offer you the best player : GM ratio in the league! quote this and reply with #jointhebigfish and I'll send you a contract!
  5. tell your cat I say hi
  6. Crazy to think that 2 years ago I joined the VHL 2 years ago. Some days I still feel like I’m brand new around here, and I’m thankful that I still have that rookie passion. Now that I’m the one handing out waiver pitches, I went back to look at my Create a Player page. It’s pretty funny that I rejected starting minutes with Mexico City to be a backup with Las Vegas, but I remember not wanting to have too big of a role right away, knowing that I wasn’t an expert by any means. I always get a little sad when waivers don’t join my team despite offering more minutes, but then I remember how I felt going in. Sometimes getting the chance to join an established team, not even necessarily a contender, is sometimes a really comforting element. That being said, any waivers happening to be reading this, come join San Diego, I promise it’ll be a good time. Anyways, the last 2 years have been pretty crazy in real life, and now that life is settling back into normality, I’ve loved carving a spot for the VHL in there with my job and school. It has helped me fill in that spare time and keep me busy and productive. To many more 2-years!
  7. praise be to simon
  8. Welcome! I have first line ice time and special teams for you if you'd like to join the Marlins! We are tearing down for a rebuild, so there is lots of ice time to go around for those who stick around and participate! quote this and reply with #jointhebigfish and I'll send you a contract!
  9. Hey! I assume you're going to sign with Masu's Reapers, but if you want top line minutes with the Marlins quote this and replay with #jointhebigfish and I'll send you a contract!
  10. Nice to see all my old players doing well so far on their new teams!
  11. thanks for working through the mess of pick trades @Masu Chan! Still incredibly tough to move great players and great users. @Frank I'm sure we'll cross paths again in the future, and I appreciate you bringing your energy and some hope to this Marlins season. @Anthique I was so excited to snag you at the draft this season, and I wish you nothing but the best with the Reapers. You'll both do great! S86 hypeeeee!
  12. Also really appreciate the shoutout! I definitely still feel like I'm riding whatever bender my linemates put me through but if it pays off at the end of the season, that's what matters!
  13. Welcome! I’d love to have you on the Marlins for this season! We are fresh off a finals appearance last season and hope to make a dent this season again! I can offer you top pairing ice time and a great locker room to hang out in! Reply with #jointhebigfish and I’ll send you an offer!
  14. Thank you so much for bringing your all every day @Phil @Toast. Wish we could've done more but you should get a great opportunity with Houston. Thank you as always @ajwllmsn for making trading with you so easy!

  19. Super happy to have you and I love to see a media spot coming out Braun has been off to an incredible start and I'm super excited to see how this career goes! Keep taking care of yourself first and your player second, and enjoy the career!
  20. As much as I have most certainly made some NYA jokes in my time, I personally (unfortunately) support the Leafs, and so I have come to be able to respect and admire good hockey moves when I see them, regardless of the on-ice effect. You've been a great GM from what I've seen over the last couple seasons. Hope to see you back in the GM chair at some point, but I also know that it comes with a lot of pressure and outside attention, and I don't envy your position. I appreciate you and all you do, and I've always looked up to you.
  21. SAN DIEGO MARLINS PRESS CONFERENCE Week Ending 7/10/2022 or 7/17/2022 Answer 3 questions for 1 capped TPE, all 6 for 2. 1. We seem to have gone about .500 this week, what is your player doing to try to win those second games? 2. Do you wish the TPE Cap was higher than 12? Or perhaps you think it is too high? Spill your thoughts. 3. What has been the most surprising performance on the team so far? 4. If you could have one VHL user or NHL player on the team, who would they be? 5. Give me music recommendation? 6. Has your player build met your expectations so far this season? @Frank @Anthique @JeffD @FriedRiceJutsu @Toast @Franklin @Blazzer @Phil

  23. VHLM Power Rankings – Slightly Past the first Quarter 1. Las Vegas Aces (-) Vegas hasn’t gotten any worse, and no one can say they’re at the Aces level yet. If they can grab a 4th D, I’m not sure who could catch them. I figure if I keep writing amazing things about the Aces, the Shindigs jinx will take place. Although as a 2-time Aces Alumni I guess I don’t mind seeing them continue to do well. 2. Mexico City Kings (+2) Mexico has held onto their depth players so far, and as they continue to get better over time, they look like the best option to compete with the Aces. They are getting extraordinary goaltending and great scoring from their top unit. They are currently the top scoring 3rd period team, and it has led to a great campaign so far. 3. Mississauga Hounds (+2) So I really didn’t expect this one. One might notice the work that the MIS bots have put in so far this season, but the team looks significantly better than it did at the start of the season. The (re)-addition of Quinn Clark solidifies the top pairing, and Felix St-Laurent looks like an incredible earner. A couple more players and this team could be a championship contender. 4. Houston Bulls (-1) It isn’t that Houston has gotten any worse, its just that they haven’t gotten better at the same pace as the teams above. I think with another top forward and another D, this team is a lock for the final 4. Their bottom forwards could certainly be worse, but look for them to earn a bit more to keep up with the other top teams. 5. Philadelphia Reapers (-3) I don’t truly believe this team is the 5th best team, but they’re certainly playing like it. They have great skaters, although they could use a few waivers for depth, but their woes seem to be entirely in net. Their goaltender has been earning welfare inconsistently and their build doesn’t seem to have been getting the results the Reapers will need to succeed. They should either be in the market for a top goaltender or pushing for better earning. As I said last time around, they will only go as far as Evan Bihler will take them. 6. Ottawa Lynx (+4) Much better ranking than the last time around. They have recently picked up 2 waiver goaltenders, and that should be able to keep them in the playoff mix. They’ve got a really nice top unit, and hopefully they can get at least one top goaltender from their options and gather some more back-end depth for a push this season. 7. San Diego Marlins (+1) Although the standings strongly disagree with this placement, the Marlins schedule has been incredibly tough to start the season. Since the second week has gone on, San Diego has been splitting and winning sims regularly. Still quality over quantity, and finishing a second unit would make this team a sneaky playoff team. 8. Halifax 21st (+1) The standings have loved Halifax so far. Maybe it knows something that I don’t but I can’t see this team getting anywhere at this point. They have been getting exceptional goaltending, which has kept them close to even in goal differential. Their top unit has been playing well so far, but will need to keep earning to keep up with the other teams. Hopefully they can have some nice pieces for either a firesale or a little playoff bout. 9. Saskatoon Wild (-3) This team once was the epitome of defensive depth, but after some inactivity, the team has shown what it really is. Jesse Teno and Astro Singh have been especially exciting so far, and I hope to see them on a playoff team at some point. A couple waivers and they could have some fun, but don’t expect too much from the Wild this season. 10. Miami Marauders (-3) The longer the Marauders go without picking up a goaltender, the more they fall down my list. I like their top players, but they stand no chance without a goaltender. I actually think this team could compete in the playoffs with even a ~150TPE goaltender. The sooner they get on that, the more likely it is they can save their season. 719 words idk if I'll claim or not
