  1. FISTED ANALLY BY A CIRCUS MONKEY
  2. 1)There's no one on here I truly hate, but if I have to pick someone then @Bushito is my least favorite member. This goes back to I believe around S40 when I was a VHLM GM wanting to become a VHL GM. I remember Bushito was a horrible VHLM GM who drafted an inactive 100 tpe scrub with his first round pick, and he for some reason got promoted to VHL GM because ???. He then proceeded to go inactive with Seattle, and the team went on a miracle run to win the cup. Then Seattle went on a crusade to not have Bushito fired when he returned, and then he stayed GM for a bit and went inactive again! Plus his political opinions are something else. 2) The community here is half the reason I stay, and I don't feel like meeting a whole bunch of new people in another league at this point. Also, I have barely even hung on here, there's no way I will care to in other leagues. 3) A great thing. I also think we are starting to get that, with lots of high schoolers having been recruited recently. They are the ones who are willing to put in a lot of time and care into the website, and they have the youthful hip energy that has faded from us old men #yolo. I don't really get bothered by childishness

  12. Age: 19 Place of birth: Philadelphia, PA Height: 6'3” Weight: 197. Current team: Ottawa Lynx Selected by the Ottawa Lynx with the 15th pick of the S64 VHLM Dispersal Draft, Gritty is excited to prove his doubters wrong and help lead his team towards the elusive Founder's Cup. The Lynx shocked the world and made the VHLM finals last year thanks to their GRIT and determination, and Gritty's additional year of experience should be key in providing the leadership necessary. The below scouting report shows why the Ottawa Lynx got the steal of the S64 VHLM Draft. Positives Grittiness In case you couldn't tell by his name, Gritty is willing to do whatever it takes to help his team win. He will joust for positioning in front of the opposing goalie, fight for pucks along the boards, and lay his body on the line to block even the hardest slapshot. Additionally, Gritty plays a Dave Hakstol "heavy" game, meaning that he is great at disrupting puck possession by toppling his opponents, and is impossible to knock off the puck when it's in his possession. Hockey Awareness In addition to having the heart to be a great defensive player, Gritty possesses an outstanding hockey IQ, as he is one of the best players without the puck on his stick in the league. Gritty always knows where to go to intercept passes, disrupt defensive zone entries, and when to spring forward as an open outlet for his defensemen. This obviously makes Gritty a top penalty-killer, with one of his talents being attacking the opposing point players and creating a breakaway the other way. Passing Continuing with the theme of being a team player, Gritty is always looking to set up his teammates, as he is a pass-first player who usually will pass on a 2-1 rather than shoot. Gritty has some great saucer pass ability, making it look like he is playing NHL 19, and if often able to thread the puck over opposing sticks to set his teammates up for great one-timer chances. Additionally, Gritty is adept at entering the offensive zone, as he often drops passes back to his teammates on the rush. Negatives Finishing Ability Gritty often gets frustrated because while he is great at pushing play into the offensive zone and getting set up for scoring chances, his shooting accuracy is just not there. It takes Gritty forever to wind up a shit if he wants to get any power on it, and if he has to get off a quick snapshot it often misses the net entirely. Unless Gritty is scoring off a rebound or deflection, it's unlikely he will snipe one past the goalie. Discipline Sometimes when Gritty gets frustrated from not scoring, he takes it out on the other team in the form of a big hit, forgetting that the other player may not actually be near the puck. Additionally, while Gritty's teammates love that he is willing to stick up for them, sometimes he takes things a little too far and creates an unnecessary penalty kill for his team. Puck Handling Gritty's puck-handling is acceptable at best, as he plays within his limitations and will not try to make ridiculous looking dekes that result in a turnover the other way. He generally looks to pass the puck before he becomes in danger of losing it, or will just brute force his way towards the net. However, he cannot make slick moves to get towards the goalie, and does not have much of a breakaway move.
  13. 4) Gritty is my actual player name, though It's Gritty is also an acceptable option. 5) The ladies love the eyes. Many members of @Will's family have already asked Gritty out on a date 2) Scott Hartnell loves the facial hair, and hangs out with Gritty all the time so they can go twinning. It's also great for scaring kids off of lawns
  14. random, when i was tallying the scores 5-3 was the score of the first game so I just tallied them from there. I will go and sort it from highest to lowest percentage though good idea.

  16. Most Common VHL Fantasy Zone Scores The VHL fantasy zone has existed since the dawn of time, and with it comes everyone's favorite tpe earner, the predict the score thread. One day this summer when I had nothing better to do, I collected the data for the score of every single regular season game from Season 61. I have always predicted a score of 3-2 for close games, as my hypothesis was that 3-2 was the most common score. My prediction was not correct, as it turns out the most common score of Season 61 was 2 to 1. If I was a real scientist, I would be looking at multiple seasons, like at least the last 5, in order to have a larger sample size to really determine what the most common score was. However, even looking at the most common score for S61 was a painstaking process that took me a while, and there is no way I'm doing that for four more seasons of data. If someone else wants to look this up for me, go for it. The above handy dandy chart shows shows how many teams each different score occurred during Season S61. As you can see, 2 to 1 is the most common score as it occurred 43 times, or 15% of the time. The next two most common scores were 3-2 at 12%, and 4-2 at 10%. Overall, 50% of all games during S61 had at least one of the teams score exactly 2 goals, which means that if your prediction does not have one of the teams scoring exactly 2 goals, you are doing it wrong. In the future, I'm going to use this information to always pick a score of 2-1 in predict the score if I think the game is between two equally-talented teams, and will pick a score of 4-2 if I think there is a wider gap in talent between the two teams. However, I should throw in the disclaimer that perhaps S61 was just more defensive than other seasons. I was not paying much attention at all to that year, and maybe there were a lot of good goalies and defensemen or something, thus making 2-1 the most common score as it is lower scoring? Even so, I think it's clear that the sim favors at least one of the two teams scoring exactly 2 goals in a game, so that is your best bet if you want to earn your prediction points. The VHL shifting from 10 to 8 teams has most certainly helped lower scoring totals, as every team should be able to acquire a franchise goalie pretty easily now, with only 8 starting goalie positions available in the league. Let me know your thoughts on this. Will you be ignoring of all my phony science like @Bushito? Will you follow my lead and start predicting every game to be 2-1 from now on? Is this media spot Pulitzer worthy and the GOAT? I think it should be considered for such honors because I am helping you earn tpe!
  17. 1) Did you ever play for me in Calgary? I feel like I had you for a season 2) Who throws more shade you or @gorlab? 3) Have you ever ventured into the SHL? 4) Who was your favorite VHL player? 5) Why does @Trifecta retire all his players after 1 minute?
  18. 1) Have you ever browsed and or posted on the VHL while drunk? 2) Will you ever attempt something in the VHL graphics section just for the fun of it? 3) Do you miss the days of having people grade your media spots for grammar and content? 4) Do you miss @Squinty? When you bumped one of his thunderdome threads I thought he returned 5) Who is the funniest VHL member?

  20. water you talking about i went on discord
  21. I'd like to point out I said it was only a small sample size at that point
  22. Small sample size so far, but maybe you are onto something. If brands help retain new members then that alone could make the effort worth it. TBD if you are correct based on more votes.
  23. I made this because apparently the finals for the Brands tournament is going on, and I haven't cared or even bothered to check the entire time. The VHL off season should be exciting enough between trades and drafts, and I don't think we need any tournaments other then the world cup, which is at least mildly interesting. I honestly don't care a lick about brands, and will join whichever brand gives me the most tpe, and never once check a game. I understand that we want to create opportunities for wanna be GMs, which is great because that means people actually want to GM now, and it's not like before when I had to beg someone to take over for me as Calgary GM. However, I don't think brands is the right place for it, as I don't believe the effort put into running it is worth the reward. So prove me right or wrong by voting in my poll, and letting the VHL know whether you think brands are worth the effort or not. @Members
