  1. review: I really like the background you did and I like the graphic overall, altough you could have swapped the logos on his shoulders which would make it a ton better. the see through on the names "Askarov" were we can see Warsaw's logo through it gives that little detail that i like. The helmet doesnt really match the whole picture with its light level, if you couldve at least made the helemt darker it would be great! well done! 8/10
  2. 1) Do you prefer to listen to music to hype you up before a game, or calm you down? hype me up is the obvious answer 2) What do you think is the strangest hockey tradition? I think it is was the Florida Panthers when they threw rats on the ice, to think they made 6ix9ine figures at that time is crazy 3) Have you grown up watching hockey, or are just recently getting into it? saw my first match at the age of 7 and have watched it since 4) What do you think is the easiest position in hockey? EZ benchwarmer, just get comfortable. 5) Who do you think is your early prediction for the cup this season? Calgary, Tpa predictions never lie 6) Describe your ideal way to score a goal! Coast to coast dangling everyone is of course a dream. 7) What is the worst holiday? To be honest I dont think any is bad by itself, but. In sweden we have the same food every time, potatoes, hot dogs with no buns, meatballs and smelly fish.

    VHLE GM Announcement

    RJ! My favorite team lies in your hands, do what you do best and win! No matter what team I play on Västerås in ma hart
  5. review: WOW, that was my first reaction to seeing this. A concept that I've never seen before but absolutely love! really the only thing I don't like here are the particles on the left, maybe a bit more gray-ish or atleast a lighter colour to blend in with the blue and white better. I really love the concept! 9/10
  6. review: Shaggy Tipton is one of the few names I remember from my time in Mexico. I like the theme that you are going for and I dig it! although the player could use a little less "cracks" (?) as he looks like medusa has turned him into stone, might also could've made it a little smaller. Other than that I really like it! 8/10
  7. Gustislav nasherov has been getting top line minutes the start of the season as of the Helsinki rebuild has started. Even though he soon has more points this season than last season in only 20 games he has not been up to the test with less +/- (-14) than points (12). If Nasherov wants to keep these line minutes he needs to improve asap! Wether he likes it or not he must improve, he needs to make himself feared by other defensemen and goalies, a player no one wants to play against. If he can improve from this bad start he will surely be able to keep the minutes he's getting especially when the rebuild is over. After the rebuild the final test begins, the top line minutes will be a battle to get and whoever gets them will not be able to slack off if he wants to keep them.
  8. Presser for August 1st 1) Do you have any post game rituals? Food and sleep is something I never miss out on 2) What do you think the most important thing to having a successful career is? Good teammates and good chemistry, with that you can go anywhere 3) How have you felt about your performance thus far in the season? I feel like I could be doing more, I am not filling up the role i have right now and I need to improve. 4) Have you been keeping up with your Career Tasks? I'd say i'm doing good, I have made lots of friends so far which was my most important one. 5) Long or short stick? What do you prefer? Long, can poke pucks into the goal from farther lengths. 6) What is your ideal cross-training activity? football (not called soccer), improves footwork 7) Favorite food that you used to hate? Salmon, can't believe I used to not like that.
  9. 1) What is your ideal birthday? I mean I'm pretty happy with the one i have now but IG the ideal one would be if it was the same as a famous person 2) How do you prefer to celebrate a goal? With my teammates of course! 3) What is better? A shutout, or winning by 2 goals? Easily a shutout, feels like the team made a much more complete effort. 4) What manner of flying would you choose, if you had to fly? Wings? 5) Rank your top 5 hats of choice? 5. Regular hat. 4. Regular but cooler hat. 3. Fish hat. 2. Rögle BK hat. 1. Moose hat 6) What is the most comforting shape of room to be in? Square easily 7) What color of banana would disgust you the most and why? Brown, it just doesn't seem right, green bananas is where it's at though
  10. A good ol' power ranking coming up. No biased opinions, no "We HaVe SkIdDiLy McDoO wHiCh MaKeS uS bEtTeR", Tpa rankings is where it's at. The rules are as followed: Forward totals are only based on the top 2 lines which as in this power ranking are the top 6 Forwards TPA wise. This is because that the 3rd (possibly 4th) line will not get nearly as much playtime as the main 2 lines, and having many rookies on a team will make the study significantly less accurate. Defense totals are also based on the main 2 lines which consist of 4 defenseman, this is because of the same reasons i stated above. Goaler totals are based on the starting goaler which is decided by TPA yet again. The team ranking will be decided by the top 6 forwards + top 4 defensemen and the starting goalie. *The TPA count was July 24th and people have probably updated before i posted this* 16th. Helsinki Forwards: 16th (2463 TPA) Defense: 16th (1482 TPA) Goaler: 15th (442 TPA) Total TPA: 4387 At the 16th place we have the Helsinki Titans. After a GM change and one last cup attempt they have decided to start their rebuild which was going to happen sooner or later. If a team is rebuilding there are quite obviously no top tier player, Helsinki's highest TPA player is Spencer Elsby at 642 TPA. Even though Helsinki doesnt have any star players their future is looking bright, they have a total of 5 first round picks in the 2 upcoming drafts, they also have 8 2nd rounders in the 2 upcoming drafts. This gives them the oppritounity to go for a cup in some seasons after their rebuild is complete. Their biggest trade is without a doubt their farewell to Patrik Laine: HC Davos Acquires: Helsinki acquires: S80 HSK 4th S81 DAV 2nd S81 HSK 4th S80 CGY 1st Patrik Laine S80 DAV 2nd Raihan Heavems Griff Mackenzie Declan Wolf S80 DAV 4th 15th. Vancouver Forwards: 15th (2844 TPA) Defense: 15th (1702 TPA) Goaler: 11th (589 TPA) Total TPA: 5135 At 15th place we have the Vancouver wolves. They have a very young squad with the oldest of their offensive core is from season 75. With their 2nd pick in the draft this year they picked RW Tyler Reinhart Which I think has the most potential out of the team this season and I would not be surprised if he wins rookie of the year. Altough Vancouver doesnt have the fire power right now i'm certain that they will have a bright fututre if they are able to keep their youngsters and possibly get themselves a top class D pairing. Their biggest trade is their acquiring of Tyler Reinhart's older brother Jerome Reinhart Vancouver Acquires: HC Davos Acquires: S79 DAV 1st (Jerome Reinhart) S79 TOR 1st (Poopy Peepants) S79 VAN 4th (Kacey Burns) 14th. Moscow Forwards: 12th (3300 TPA) Defense: 13th (1939 TPA) Goaler: 16th (385 TPA) Total TPA: 5624 At the 14th place we have the Moscow Menace. At the S79 VHL draft they acquired star goaler Papa Emeritus at 1st overall. Its safe to say that they dont need to worry about their goaler side. Although I would try to get in an LW as they only have one in their entire roster, they will also need to worry about UFA next season as they have 7 players hitting UFA next season. Their biggest trade is their acquiring of the first overall pick which gave them their future franchise goalie Papa Emeritus Moscow Acquires: Los Angeles Acquires: Jocke Jockesson S79 MOS 1st (AJ Williams S79 LAS 1st (Papa Emeritus) Alex Letang 13th. London Forwards: 10th (3472 TPA) Defense: 14th (1789 TPA) Goaler: 13th (465 TPA) Total TPA: 5726 At the 13th place we have London United. With a young D core and a also a "middle aged" F line up they have a bright future ahead of them especially if they are able to get good picks from their 2 1st rounders this season they have the possibility to enter their time when they are on top of the leaderboard. As of right now I think that we will see them tank for a season or two then I think that they're team will take off in the standings. Their biggest trade is their Acquiring of Hex Rose from Seattle. Seattle Acquires: London Acquires: S80 SEA 1st Hex Rose Micah Adrienne S79 MAL 3rd (Jacob Costello) S79 NYA 3rd (Emiko Spector) 12th: D.C Forwards: 13th (3242 TPA) Defense: 8th (2393 TPA) Goaler: 12th (537 TPA) Total TPA: 6172 At 12th place we have the D.C Dragons. D.C has one of the better Defense TPA's in the league and has a quite young D core to be honest, their F line up needs a revamp to be top of the league especially with Groovy Dood having to walk in to retirement in the coming seasons. As of right know they dont have any possibility to be able to pick up a franchise F in the coming drafts because they have 3 picks in the 2 upcoming drafts (two 4th 1 1st). If they tank another season there is a possibilty they can get a high pick in the S81 VHL draft. Their biggest trade is their acquiring of Kristof Welch from Toronto: Toronto Acquires: D.C Acquires: S80 DCD 1st Kristof Welch S81 DCD 3rd S79 PRG 2nd (Luke Pastrnak) 11th. New york Forwards: 14th (3236 TPA) Defense: 10th (2288 TPA) Goaler: 1st (835 TPA) Total TPA: 6359 At 11th Place we have the New york Americans. They have a very young D core and in a couple of seasons they might have the best, their F line is also very young but they did not place higher on the TPA list but they can also have a bright future if they keep up their TPE earning. Their goalie is the best in the league which is a very reliable thing to know, I cant see too many goals scored on them this season. I would say that they have the current brightest future with players. In a couple of seasons I am sure they will be top 3 in the TPA power rankings. They currently havent made any trades yet so I must leave this segment blank. 10th. Davos Forwards: 11th (3373 TPA) Defense: 9th (2318 TPA) Goaler: 8th (747 TPA) Total TPA: 6438 At 10th place we have Davos. Davos has a young D core with a ton of potential for the future. A prospect that I really fancy in the defensive compartment is Reylyyn Reinhart . With the acquiring of Patrik Laine they increased their firepower offensively which was needed since their highest TPA person after Taro Tsujimoto (995) currently has 477 TPA. With the addition of Laine they could also make a complete first line: Brian Moreau - Taro Tsujimoto - Patrik Laine In the coming draft they only have 1 pick which is HSK 4th, next draft they have both a 1st and 3rd rounder which possibly could give them another player to help them trying to win a cup. Their biggest trade is the addition of Patrik Laine HC Davos Acquires: Helsinki acquires: S80 HSK 4th S81 DAV 2nd S81 HSK 4th S80 CGY 1st Patrik Laine S80 DAV 2nd Raihan Heavems Griff Mackenzie Declan Wolf S80 DAV 4th 9th. Malmö Forwards: 8th (3979 TPA) Defense: 12th (2003 TPA) Goaler: 2nd (795 TPA) Total TPA: 6777 At 9th place we have Malmö Nighthawks. With a surprisingly young F line up considering that they have the 8th best F TPA total in the league. Their oldest forwards are only from S72 and S75, everyone else is younger than that. Their defensive core is a mix between old and young, a new defensive player there wouldn't hurt at all. But I am sure that with Hylands at the front seat they will become a top team in the future. Their Goalie is also a good addition as he is the 2nd best goalie in the league. The goalie quality makes up a bit for their defense but as I said earlier, another defensive player would not hurt them. Malmö Hasn't made a trade yet either so this area will also be left blank 8th. LA Forwards: 9th (3571 TPA) Defense: 5th (2469 TPA) Goaler: 6th (763 TPA) Total TPA: 6803 At 8th place we have Los Angeles Stars. LA has an old defensive core which will be needed to be revamped sooner or later, their star player Jeffrey Penis Pines has switched positions from a forward to a defenseman. With this switch they might have one of the best D pairing in the league consisting of Pines and Letang, altough their 2nd pairing is where they lack, a 526 Ove Rhydal paired with a 298 Arvid Johansson. If they would sign a Defensive player with at least 338 TPA they would go from having the 5th best defense in the league to the 3rd best. Their F lineup has some youngsters along with some rookies, a good combo that always works the F line is where they lack the most but i would not be too worried about it at all. Their biggest trade was them recieving a top tier defense character for the first overall pick. Moscow Acquires: Los Angeles Acquires: Jocke Jockesson Alex Letang S79 LAS 1st (Papa Emeritus) S79 MOS 1st (AJ Williams) 7th. Prague Forwards: 6th (4134 TPA) Defense: 11th (2157 TPA) Goaler: 9th (618 TPA) Total TPA: 6909 At 7th place we have the Prague Phantoms. Looking above they dont have any outstanding stat but are more of an all around team in terms of TPA. Prague's offensive line up is at their peak, 7 out of 8 Forwards are retiring in the next 4 seasons or less. But that doesnt mean that they can't win a cup! with one or two additions to their defensive core they got a really good chance to go for a cup run and even win it. Their biggest trade was their move to get Venus Thightrap from Seattle Seattle Acquires: Prague Acquires: S79 PRG 1st (Orion D H Chiester IX) Venus Thightrap S81 PRG 1st S79 CGY 2nd (Ben Aky) 6th. Warsaw Forwards: 5th (4211 TPA) Defense: 3rd (2517) Goaler: 14th (457 TPA) Total TPA: 7185 At 6th place we have the Warsaw Predators. Warsaw's forward lineup is at it's peak, Aloe Dear is a player i'd watch out for here. Being in a line with Dakota Lamb and Lexi Glass will give Aloe an oppritunity to shine and show the VHL world as both a cup contender for the continental cup and other personal awards. Their defense is also not anything to joke around with, they have the 3rd best defense in the league for a reason. The only thing i'd like to improve here is their tendy, 14th in the league for a cup contending team is not going to cut it. They need a top class goalie if they want to make a cup run, improve that and i think that they have one of the biggest chances to win it all. Their biggest trade is their trade with Seattle: Warsaw Acquires: Seattle Acquires: S79 PRG 1st (Orion D H Chiester IX) S81 WAR 2nd Leo Strauss S79 NYA 1st (Sigard Petrenko) S79 SEA 3rd (Aina Mortas) 5th. Toronto Forwards: 7th (4075 TPA) Defense: 7th (2424 Goaler: 3rd (784 TPA) total TPA: 7283 At 5th place we have the Toronto Legion. Even though Toronto's F line is very young (youngest player being from S74) they have been able to put themselves at a 7th place in the league overall at the offensive portion. Their defensive core is not as young but still impressive at 7th overall. Toronto is an all around team but the thing sticking out for them is their goalie, 3rd best in the league, having a the 3rd best goalie let's the team let go a little bit from the defensive side and will let them focus more on the forward lines. A good trade for them would be trading for another forward to strenghten their offensive firepower. Their biggest trade is their acquiring of Vick fairchild and Aurelien Moreau: Helsinki Acquires: Toronto Acquires: S81 TOR 1st Vick Fairchild S80 HSK 3rd Aurelien Moreau S80 RIG 3rd S79 LDN 2nd (Dekster Jankowski) S79 HSK 2nd (Matty Live) 4th. Chicago Forwards: 2nd (4482 TPA) Defense: 4th (2485 TPA) Goaler: 4th (782 TPA) Total TPA: 7749 At 4th place we have the Chicago Pheonix. With two top class centers, almost like McDavid and Draisaitl they have Christian Mingle 975 TPA and SS Hornet with 979 TPA. Their top two offensive lines are truly a nightmare for goaltenders. Their top two offensive lines evem contains more TPA (4482) than the whole Helsinki Titans squad (4387). With a F lineup like that along with the 4th best D core in the the league they will be a force to be recconed with. That's before seeing that they also have the 4th best goalie in the league aswell, these are my personal favorites to win the cup but feelings don't matter here. Their biggest trade is their trade with London: London Acquires: Chicago Acquires: S80 CHI 1st Julian Nousiainen S80 CHI 3rd 3rd. Seattle Forwards: 1st (4557 TPA) Defense: 6th (2467 TPA) Goaler: 5th (773 TPA) Total TPA: 7797 At 3rd place we have the Seattle bears. Seattle topping the Forward category is no surprise. With players like Valtteri Vaakainen, Isabella Campbell and Andrew Su they will not have a hard time scoring goals, but I would be worried about their offensive side, their youngest player is from S76 and second youngest S74. Four of their offensive player will retire next season too, as it looks like right now in four seasons only one forward will remain. Their defense also needs a revamp, not as soon as their F but still soon. I am pretty sure that we will shortly see a Seattle rebuild starting, but they do have a chance to get one last cup! Their biggest trade is their farewell to Venus thightrap: Seattle Acquires: Prague Acquires: S79 PRG 1st (Orion D H Chiester IX) Venus Thightrap S81 PRG 1st S79 CGY 2nd (Ben Aky) 2nd. Riga Forwards: 4th (4369 TPA) Defense: 2nd (2707 TPA) Goalers: 7th (752 TPA) Total TPA: 7828 At 2nd place we have Riga Reign. Riga Reign has one hell of a first forward line consisting of Cabe McJake, Justin Lose and Artair McCloud. Riga is also an all around team, but instead of mediocre placements on defense and forwards they are keeping a high standard with 4th best forwards and 2nd best defense, their goalie is nothing to look over either. 7th best in the league along with the 2nd best defensive crew they will not let in many goals at all. Their biggest trade was their trade for their starting goalie Zamboni Driver: Helsinki Acquires: Riga Acquires: S80 DCD 2nd Zamboni Driver 1st. Calgary Forwards: 3rd (4401 TPA) Defense: 1st (2893 TPA) Goaler: 10th (614 TPA) Total TPA: 7908 And lastly the team thats supposed to win it all according to TPA, The Calgary Wranglers. First of all their D core is amazing, their lowest TPA player here is at 555 TPA which shows us their depth. With a defense like they have comes a great offensive lineup which they were ranked 3rd overall in the league. They don't have a super star with tons of TPA but rather more spread out TPA, allowing them to use their depth to the fullest. The only thing i'd approve here is their goalie. If they would get an even better goalie than the one they already have i'm sure that they will make a long run into the playoffs and even has the possibillity to win it all. Their biggest trade was them trading for Dan Dan: Helsinki Acquires: Calgary Acquires: S80 VAN 2nd Dan Dan S81 CGY 3rd S81 CGY 1st This is it for this time and I want to give huge props to Domg for letting me use this idea, I'll gladly accept any feedback!

    Yukon GM Change

    Juice! You better take good care and test much. It was one hell of a ride watching you vs Thad the last 2 seasons. You did an awesome job and you could not have done it better!
  12. I must have joined by accident as the coming weeks i do not have much free time to be able to do this. I'm really sorry for the inconveniences
  13. This is absolutely beautiful my ears are blessed. Juice really knows how to hit those high notes it's like he's an angel 10/10
  14. review: I really like the color scheme you choose along with the vibrant and "wavy" colors, that part alone makes me think that it is very good but I also really like the text you have on it. Texts doesnt ussualy get me too excited but I really like this one. The logo swap police could get on this case but I know that you arent drafted yet. 9/10!
  15. Review: I really like this graphic as a whole and I really like the logo swap along with the jersey color. Altough the logo swap police never fails, on the secondary crest on the front side they can see that there is a Colombus blue jackets logo, unacceptable (not really though tbh). I do like basically everything else other than that it's hard to read the last part of the name "Patrick) as it is pretty dark there, other than that i really like it! 8/10
  16. 1. Unfortunately we didn't win the cup, losing in 6 games 4-2 to Yukon. What are your thoughts? As a yukon fan i am really happy to have been able to see such a great matchup in the finals, it was a hard fought battle and I could not have been more excited to see it play out. 2. If you could go back in time and change one thing before the cup finals this season, what would it be? If I could change one thing before the finals it wouldve been to bet a buttload of money on the bracket winner and scores, millionare. 3. What advice would you give to the next group for the Minnesota Storm? To have fun and go win some games, theres also a ton of stuff to explore in the different discords so i would also recommend to have fun in the different discords and get some new friends. 4. How are you spending your time before training camp starts? Taking a rest as i know that training camp takes a ton of durability to push through. 5. If you could be a GM for any NHL team, who would you choose and what changes would you make? I would like to GM the oilers then, trade off mcdavid, draisaitl and hopkins for a 3rd rounder and then id take a boat to an unkown land so i dont get slaughterd by their fans 6. How do you stay cool in hot and humid days? Luckily it is pretty windy in Sweden so by just going outside makes me want to go inside again if that makes sense
