  1. If everyone stopped recreating goalies right now, and every single clicker goalie went IA. We still wouldn't need a single goalie to create until S89. Where we would need 1 goalie. That's how over-saturated we are on high earning goalies rn. In S86 we will have 22 "starter tier" goalies at the VHL level, in S87-88 we will have 23.🤯

      Yeah the key is to zig when everyone else is zagging. The only reason I created Booberry as a goalie was because there was literally one (Bek) max-earning goalie in the whole 76-79 draft classes, and only two in S80 joining me. A bit glad Booberry will be leaving at the right time too right as this becomes a problem.

  2. I like how we all know @WentzKneeFan036 and @Fire Vigneault as Eagles and Flyers but neither has been either  of those for a while now

      Was reading an old thread yesterday that referenced Alfie and it took me a minute

  3. Will there be anymore trades this season?

    1. CowboyinAmerica

      CowboyinAmerica

      I can almost guarantee there will be a VAN/NYA trade that may or may not involve 4th round picks...

  4. Can we move Vancouver back to Quebec City? 

    1. CowboyinAmerica

      CowboyinAmerica

      On the one hand, the idea of a hockey-starved city like Quebec City rallying around a new professional team was a great role playing storyline. On the other hand, the idea that the Canucks forever suck so badly that Vancouver said, "Fuck it, we'll root for these guys" is also great.

  5. What's the greatest rivalry in VHL history? All I can think of is S43 Bears vs Calgary, but is there anything else

    1. CowboyinAmerica

      CowboyinAmerica

      As part of that Calgary team, I'd say Quebec was actually our bigger rivals during that time (and the biggest rivalry I've been part of). S44 playoffs were fun.

  6. Would anyone be interested in more active ranking systems to help you know where you stand in comparison to your position or maybe include everyone in the vhl/m. Would be interesting to see if anyone wants this.

    1. CowboyinAmerica

      If there's an easy way I'd be interested, but also don't want to burn you out

      Best of luck to you. But some unsolicited advice from someone who works a lot in law: Complete internet silence, including social media and forums like this, is a good idea until it blows over. Hopefully this wouldn't turn into a case, but if it does, that'll be the first place a prosecutor will check and even talking about a case (even to say you didn't do it) can be used by a smart attorney in some fashion.

  8. What are the chances the Seattle Bears, after all this time, relocate? 

    1. CowboyinAmerica

      CowboyinAmerica

      Please don't. I thought it was a horrible idea when I was still there, and I still do. All of the history the VHL has is what makes this league truly unique.

  9. Should the VHL World Cup be every 4 seasons? 

    1. CowboyinAmerica

      CowboyinAmerica

      I like the idea. Would make it more of an event at the very least

  10. @Will is working on probably one of the biggest changes to come to the VHL since it's creation. Can't wait to share it with you guys soon; it's looking great.

    1. CowboyinAmerica

      CowboyinAmerica

      Yeah figured that was coming soon after seeing the thread where he got the idea. Let me know if you want any input on anything.

  12. I lost one of my best friends this weekend to a POS drunk driver. I just got back from taking his daughter trick or treating with mine. I will post trivia shit tomorrow or really late tonight, I'm physically and mentally drained. If someone can let Shaka know on EFL i'd appreciate it.

      Drunk driving sucks. My thoughts with the family.

  13. Goodbye, Paul Manafort. He flips before Wednesday, in my opinion. 

    1. CowboyinAmerica

      CowboyinAmerica

      That would be the easiest way, but he could also repeal regulations that give the acting AG autonomy over special counsel. And after the past 12 months, I put nothing out of the realm of possibility. (I've interviewed Katyal personally before, smart dude, and take what he writes at face value.) https://www.washingtonpost.com/posteverything/wp/2017/05/19/politics-could-still-block-muellers-investigation-i-know-i-wrote-the-rules/?utm_term=.f268ea2febfa

      Don't think Mueller's fired first? I think it happens before the end of the week.

  15. After winning his third Gold - is Rhett DeGrath the best international player of all time? We need a VHL historian on this tbh @Strtlght @Victor

    1. CowboyinAmerica

      It went to every third season when Super Cup was a thing, but has been back to every other season since S46 I believe

  17. What's the max games a player can play and still be considered a rookie in the following season?

    1. CowboyinAmerica

      CowboyinAmerica

      Probably should have some sort of clause in there about only being able to play one partial season with non-rookie status or something. Or someone could do the Reencarnacion thing and be a like 700 TPE rookie.

  18. Sigh. My girlfriend watches one documentary and all of a sudden is a vegan after 23 years.. Help.

     

    1. CowboyinAmerica

      CowboyinAmerica

      Yeah I should clarify - there's nothing wrong with being a vegan if you actually put in that planning and do your research in what you believe in. A lot of people don't do that though, and one documentary shouldn't be the basis for a major lifestyle change.

       

      (And I have some problems with that climate change assertion, but not the time or place for a long argument about it.)

      Yeah I'd give it a little time and see if the idea actually takes root or if it's a passing fad. Dated a vegan for about 2 years, it ain't a fun time.
