"If it ain't broke let's break it" - @Beketov and @Quik
After hacking into the CIA headquarters, I discovered that this year's VHL draft is being held right now in secret over the span of a few days, rather than a big live event like we have done every time since the dawn of history. The results of this supposedly "secret" draft have been leaked, but don't worry, I won't make this offseason any more lame by sharing the results with the press. The offseason is supposed to follow a pattern of litness, starting with the initial trades, followed by free agency, followed by the draft (or swap draft and fa idc). The point is, there should be 3 lit periods of activity from that stuff. Instead, the "draft" and free agency are both pushed towards the end of the offseason, with the draft no longer being a live event that's fun to watch. Part of the fun of the draft was seeing GMs trade up or down under a time crunch, or make a last second decision on a player, with live threads following. Free agency is going to be right up against the preseason, so a lot of the preseason fun is just going to be lost in the start of the season, which is a shame because there are some really good FAs this year.
PS - Beketov and Quik it's not like we don't appreciate all the work you put in being blue team, I just think this needs to be fixed for next offseason. K Thnx bai
