  6. The Aces just got eliminated, effectively ending Lenny Sanderson's playing time in the VHLM. He had a pretty good run, one that lasted for almost two seasons. And along the way, during Sanderson's development, there were a bunch of fantastic people that I'm going to shout out here. Let's begin with Saskatoon, where Sanderson started his career. @Doomsday was an amazing GM, and @a_Ferk was a great AGM. Both guys played huge roles in getting me on the rails in this league, and I'll forever be thankful. The Wild were a decent team that season, and Sanderson started pretty low on the depth chart, at sub 100 TPE. In the playoffs, Sanderson broke out with 10 points in 7 games, but the Wild eventually lost in game seven to the Las Vegas Aces, Sanderson's next stop in the VHLM. The Aces drafted me 8th overall in the dispersal draft. It was a crazy one, with Houston grabbing a good portion of the whole first round. I thought I was going to the Bulls for sure, if they kept up all the trades. But @Spartan , @JigglyGumballs, and the Aces held on to one of their firsts to grab me. Las Vegas is one of the more historic and known VHLM organizations, and it was an honour to join them. We were slow out of the gates, but we turned it on about midway through the season and stole a playoff spot. Unfortunately, we ran into the Mexico City Kings, one of the hottest teams coming into the playoffs, and we got swept in what was a series that was full of overtimes and tight games. It wasn't the best way to go out, but making the playoffs was nice for sure. That pretty much sums up my VHLM career. Thanks again to all my managers, it was a real fun experience.
  7. I would love a sig for my player, Lenny Sanderson, with Nico Hischier as render. Thanks!
  8. 1. Well, disappointed that we're out but I'm glad that we kept them close 2. Mexico was a strong team and I thought we played solid. No regrets 3. Really any second round series is gonna be good. Lots of good teams 4. I don't love tea. Hot chocolate is my jam 5. Shevkov and Lund were great, they really buckled down for us to get to the playoffs. Maronen is the backbone of our team, no doubt. 6. Unfortunately, it looks like Vegas is in for a bit of a down season. Good luck to y'all, it'll be fun playing with and against you in the big leagues!
  9. 1. We've been picking it up recently, I think we'll be surprising in the playoffs 2. I'd say Prague, they've been on fire since that big trade 3. Dedicated members 4. I mean, the Reapers did that two seasons ago and won the cup the next, so I like where it's going 5. I guess medium 6. For sure.
  10. After leaving his childhood home in Antarctica when he was ten years old, Lenny Sanderson had never gone back. His parents had come up to North America, to Saskatoon and Las Vegas, multiple times over the course of those 8 years, but he had always longed to breathe the cold, fresh, pollution-free Antarctic air again. As gone into in this article, he had more or less adapted to the American and Canadian culture and way of living. With a sudden announcement of a vacation for all VHL and VHLM players, Lenny was able to realize his homecoming. When Lenny called his parents in Antarctica for the first time regarding the trip, he comically asked them if they were busy. Their response, of course; "Really, Lenny? We're in Antarctica". So right away, he got to booking a flight, which is rather difficult considering the lack of major airports in Antarctica. But the Sanderson's couldn't have been living there without some connections, so it wasn't a huge task to fly Lenny down to the Sanderson household, which looks out onto the Weddell Sea. Once he had gotten his luggage sorted out, he went on a little tour of his childhood home. He was surprised to find that the house looked a lot more like a laboratory now that he had seen actual houses in North America. He was also a little stunned by the cold, and for a moment he was wistful for the warm, sunny Las Vegas weather. But that was soon far from his mind as he rediscovered the Sanderson rink. The rink he had spent countless hours on growing up, with little to nothing else to do. It brought him loads and loads of happy flashbacks to when he was an aspiring young player, eager to get out of bed every morning and hop on the ice. After a few hours of catching up with his parents, Lenny found himself lacing up his skates to get back on to the ice that had shaped his life and career. His dad, Troy, a former hockey player himself who had used the rink in spare time, also shook the rust off of his blades to jump on the ice. A new father-son moment was born as Lenny and Troy skated, passing and shooting, for two hours. Finally, Lenny's mom called them in the house. The elder Sanderson's still had one last surprise up their sleeve. The last part of the trip started with Lenny being blindfolded and led out blindly into the cold. Suddenly, he was engulfed by warmth. He opened his eyes and was startled by the sight. It was....penguins. Hundreds of them, huddled together in this barn. His parents, amused with his confusion, spilled the beans. They had seen a waddle of penguins outside their windows, struggling to stay warm in the way below freezing temperatures. So they had started a project to have a barn built for them in the harshest winter months. It was something that was definitely unheard of before in the world. As he was putting his bags in the seaplane to return to Las Vegas, Lenny Sanderson wanted to do one thing before he left Antarctica one more. He took off his parka and some of his jackets and sat in the snow, with a not-recommended amount of clothing in the frozen wasteland, and meditated. He sat there, at peace with himself, for 10 minutes straight before Troy called him out and he finally said his goodbyes and got on the plane. It was the last time Sanderson would visit his home nation for a long time. 603 words
  11. It may be a little early, or a little late, depending how you look at it. But I'm going to go over the Aces' season, as in writing about the team itself and the players, and where I think we'll end up after everything is said and done. So, on with the article. Right now, the Aces hold the 4th and final playoff position in the Western Conference, sitting 4 points ahead of the Saskatoon Wild, after trailing them for the first chunk of the season. However, the gap between the Aces and the third place Yukon Rush is a 22 point difference, and after today's lackluster sim, it looks unlikely that we'll catch them without a miracle. But we've caught Saskatoon, and they were a good amount ahead of us, so I'm not writing us off for that just yet. As for noticeable player performances, we've definitely had a few. Evgeni Shevkov has been a beast, with 40 goals and 87 points, putting him on the league leaderboards for both of those categories. Angel Wachiure, a veteran of a couple seasons now, is also making a difference with 53 points. Free agent D signings Joakim Lund and New Player as well as top waiver signing and VHL draft prospect Rolf Fizzlebeef Jr. have also been really solid on the back end. And, of course, mainstay goalie Aksu Maronen has kept us in countless games. As for my own player, Lenny Sanderson, I've been satisfied with his performance. While I definitely expected more goals and points, 29 goals and 53 points is still respectable and I can feel relieved to know I'm helping the team. I'm excited to join the LA Stars next season, a team on the rise with a lot of younger players. 295 words
  12. 1. Yeah, even though we've been drifting into rebuild I still have hope we can pull out a playoff run 2. I think I'm doing fine, I'm glad the points are coming 3. I like the way the Aces have operated the last few seasons, where we get picks but contend at the same time, rather than rip everything apart then do a dream team. 4. Um, NHL21? 5. Star Wars. Never seen star trek, and I love star wars 6. I watched the super bowl, yes, and was surprised the bucs won. I thought the halftime show was a little odd but good
  13. 1. I think we have a decent team and we’ll pull it together eventually 2. I think we have a bit of clutch in us 3. Definitely. I think we still have weapons on offence 4. Read a book 5. Neither. Hot chocolate 6. I’d love to see an Imagine Dragons concert
  14. 1. Well considering the circumstances 2. Pretty excited. It's a great team 3. I think we'll see as the season goes on 4. Rock and AC/DC 5. Houston has a crazy good roster 6. Well, it kind of looks like it lol
  15. Yeah sorry about this, my wifi was running slow so I might have clicked the submit button more than once.
