The Rome Gladiators make an IA offer to the IA FA Jack Quill

The Rome Gladiators make an IA offer to the IA FA Jarno Lappi.

Welcome everyone, Last week was the drafts week, we had the VHL entry draft Monday, the VHLM dispersal draft Thursday and the VHLE entry draft Friday and Bobby Bob was eligible for the VHL and the VHLE drafts. Last week we looked at every team where Bob could have end up and in this seventh episode of « The Bobs legacy, the sequel » we are going to look at both team that drafted Bobby Bob. Before the S88 VHL draft, a lot of teams approached Bobby about his interest in playing for them, his goals, his plan for the future of his career and even the player he wanted to become. He was ranked pretty high in the draft and in his mock draft in the VSN, @Alex said that Bobby Bob was going to be drafted 5th overall by the Prague Phantoms. However, Bobby was finally drafted 3rd overall by the Toronto Legion behind Mark Calaway @Beketov drafted 1st overall by the D.C. Dragons and FISTED ANALLY BY A CIRCUS MONKEY Analfist @STZ drafted 2nd overall by the Vancouver Wolves. Bobby Bob and the Legion had some really good talk before the draft and they even told Bobby that they were going to draft him if he was still available when it was their time to pick, so he was confident. The Toronto Legion are currently in a rebuild and they are going in the right direction with some really good players, like the forwards Mac Atlas @v.2 and Jimi Jaks @kelvi, the defensemen Tater Tottingham @Trunkxolotl and the goalie Joel Castle @animal74. However, the team will not be competitive before a season or two and this one of the reasons why Bobby decided to stay in the VHLE one season before jumping in the VHL. Bobby was really happy to be drafted by Toronto and he is really excited to start his career in the VHL next season with the Canadian team. Unlike the VHL teams, no team contacted Bobby Bob, but the rumors were saying that Bob was going to be drafted in the first round, by either the Oslo Storm or the Rome Gladiators. Finally, the father decided to draft the son and Bobby Bob was drafted 6th overall by the Rome Gladiators. They also had the first overall pick, and they went for the Swedish forward, BjorkaBjorn BjornaBjorkson @JardyB10. Together, they are going to lead the team this season the roster in general is looking good. Last year was a difficult one for the Gladiators and this year is supposed to be completely different. Indeed, we talked to the GM of Rome, and he confirmed to us that the Italian team was going to be competitive this season and for the seasons to come. Bobby Bob decided to stay down one season, to try to win the Reconnaissance Cup and dominate the VHLE. Next season, Bobby is expected to play in the VHL with the Toronto Legion and since the defense of the team is not really good at the moment, Bobby Bob will probably play on the top defensive pair.

Thanks @Masu Chan for the trade talk! Welcome on the team @GioSivo and thanks to @Gaming Ringleader and @MacDre for your short journey with the Gladiators! Here is the link to the locker room : https://discord.gg/QqqcEK2T

Welcome eveyone, Last drifay was the S88 VHLE entry draft and the Rome Gladiators had a lot of picks including the first overall pick. The Gladiators decided to choose BjorkaBjorn BjornaBjorkson @JardyB10 with that first overall pick. After, Rome decided to make Bobby Bob (6th overall) their second pick of the first round. In the second round, the italian team only had one pick and they decided to choose Legacy Gaming (9th overall) @Gaming Ringleader, but I heard some rumors that Gaming was not happy with the team that drafted him and that the Gladiators are talking with the Istanbul Red Wolves about a trade involving Legacy Gaming. In the third round, chose Alex DeLuca @Deluca and Justin Williams @JCV with the 17th and 23th pick overall. Rome also had two picks in the fourth round and they went with Jeremia Barbaslov (25th overall) @Je Barbaslov and Boolie Buchholz (31th overall) @Jacob buchholz. Finally, they drafted Robert Boldy @The Goblin and Scuff McGruff @ScuffMcgruff in the fifth round and Thomas Zubrus @Zuby in the sixth round. Thanks everyone, see you next week and let's go Gladiators!!!

Welcome everyone, The S88 VHL entry draft and the S88 VHLE entry draft are scheduled for the mars 27th and the mars 31st respectively and Bobby Bob is eligible for both of them. In this sixth episode of « The Bobs legacy, the sequel », we are going to look at all the teams that Bobby Bob has a chance to be picked by. If we start with the VHL, Bobby Bob was contacted by five teams. As of now, Bobby Bob is third for the number of TPE with 366 and he will logically be drafted in the top 5. The Calgary Wranglers have the 13th and the 16th pick overall and Bobby will most likely not be available, but they still contacted Bob to wish him luck in good draft. The Malmo Nighthawks also messaged him to wish him luck in the draft and for the rest of his career despite them only having the 6th overall pick. Then, the Toronto Legion that currently has the 3rd overall pick contacted Bobby Bob very early in the off-season and they showed a lot of interest in the Canadian defensemen and even if the final decision will be in Toronto’s hand, there are a lot of chances to see Bobby Bob play with them in a near future. Finally, the New York Americans asked a couple of questions to Bobby Bob about his goals in the future and his interest in playing with them. New York has the 4th overall pick and if Bob is still available, he could very well be an Americans after the draft. Where ever he lands Bobby Bob will do anything to win a Cup with this team and be the best player in the league. Now with VHLE, there are fewer options, because there are only eight teams in the league and only five teams have a first round pick, the Rome Gladiators with the 1st and 6th pick, the Istanbul Red Wolves with the 2nd and 3rd pick, the Vasteras Iron Eagles with the 4th pick, the Yukon Rush with the 5th and 8th and the Oslo Storm with the 7th pick. The Rome Gladiators have the first overall pick for the first time in their history and since the GM is Bobby Bob’s dad, Baby Boomer, we could think that the GM would be interested in drafting his son, but we asked him about it and he said that he would not comment about it before the draft. Next, we have the Istanbul Red Wolves and even if the team did not contact Bobby, the team could very well select him with their two first picks. For the remaining teams, none of them contacted Bobby Bob, so we have literally no idea what their plans are, and we can only wait to see what they will do and who they will pick. The draft in the VHLE is a little bit different than the VHL’s one since the best players available are going to play only one season in the VHLE before going to the VHL. This is the reason why Bobby Bob is not guaranteed to be drafted to in the top 5. However, I see Bobby Bob getting drafted pretty soon in the VHLE entry draft next Friday.

That makes more sense!

Very interesting, but I disagree, Bobby Bob is not dropping that low. I believe in him and I am sure he will be one of the best defensemen in the league in a couple of seasons. lol

Welcome everyone, In approximately two weeks the S88 VHLE Entry Draft will take place and as of now, no one knows who will be the first overall pick of this draft. In this episode, we will look at all the possible the first pick. We will start by talking about two prospect who confirmed that they were going to play in the VHL next season, Jacop Stone @scoop and FISTED ANALLY BY A CIRCUS MONKEY Analfist @STZ. I am sure they are both going to have very successful career in the VHL. My sources are telling me that the first overall pick is going to be between four players, the defesemen of the Halifax 21st Mark Calaway @Beketov, the forward of the Cologne express BjorkaBjorn BjornaBjorkson @JardyB10, the forward of the San Diego Marlins Jasper Davis @Josh and another defensemen of the Halifax 21st Moritz Stauffer @GoodLeftUndone. The GM of the Rome Gladiators did not say anything about who he likes the most, so the only thing we can do is wait until the draft to see who will be the new player of the Gladiators. Thanks everyone, see you next week and let's go Gladiators!!!

Welcome everyone, Bobby Bob just completed his first and last full season of his short career in the VHLM. He completely dominated the league and his team, the Houston Bulls, also had a really good season. In this fifth episode of « The Bobs legacy, the sequel », we will look at the regular season and the playoffs of Bobby Bob and the Houston Bulls. The Houston Bulls had a good start of the season in S87, but not a great one. Indeed, for more than half the season, Houston was third in their conference and between the seventh and the fifth place in the league. At the trade deadline, the Bulls GM (@AJW) and his AGM (@Triller) decided to make a trade that they thought would improve the team for the remainder of the season. They traded Nick Sansoe @Tipskid97 and Shadow Thompson @Kelsey to the Miami Marauders for the goaltender Merome Dilson @MexicanCow123. After this trade, the Houston Bulls were never the same again and they started to play like a top four team in the league and they succeeded to win 45 games, lose the other 27 games including 6 in overtime for a total of 96 points in 72 games. The Bulls finished second in their conference and fourth in the league just before the Mississauga Hounds who also finished with 96 points. Just like his team, Bobby Bob had a great season, and he even earned his place in the record book of the Houston Bulls. Bob finished the season with 30 goals and 82 assists for a total of 112 points in 72 games and a differential of +12. With those stats, Bob finished seventh in the league for the number of points, first among defensemen, first in assist in the league and first for the number of power-play goals with 19. Bobby dominated the league, and this incredible season gave him the honour to have a place in the record book of the Houston Bulls for the fourth most assists in a single season (82). In the playoffs, the Houston Bulls faced the Mississauga Hounds in the first round of the Founder’s Cup and easily won the series in five little games to make it to the second round. The Mexico City Kings were the next opponents of the Bulls and this series was very different than the previous one. Indeed, the series went to game 7 before the Kings won the last game and the semi-final 3-2. After this game, Houston’s season was over, but they can be proud of what they have done, because they were only 2 goals away from the final. In the final, the Ottawa Lynx beat the Mexico City Lynx in five games to win the Founder’s Cup. In these playoffs, Bobby Bob scored 2 goals and added 14 assists for a total of 16 points in 12 games and a differential of +2. Despite having five fewer games played than the other players, Bob is second in points among defenseman and ninth in the league. Bobby Bob’s season was extraordinary, but now it is time for the drafts and the off-season. Where do you think Bobby Bob will end up?

Congrats to both of you!!

Welcome everyone, This episode will be the last part of the mini-series of me telling you how good the Rome Gladiator's prospects are. It is now time to talk about the last prospect, Mclean Hoover II @McLean Hoover. Hoover II just completed his first season in the VHLM with the Mississauga Hounds after being drafted by them 23rd overall in the last dispersal VHLM draft. Mclean scored 18 goals and added 43 assists for a total of 61 points in 72 games. It was a really good season for a first one and if we are looking at his number of TPE, Mclean Hoover II is most likely to play another season in the VHLM before jumping in the VHLE with the Rome Gladiators. He is expected to have a really good season in the M next year with Mississauga and the Rome Gladiators are really excited to have him on the team in two seasons. In the last couple of episodes, we talked about the prospects Rome had in their roster, but we should not forget about all the draft picks Rome has in the two next draft. Thanks everyone, see you next week and let's go Gladiators!!!

A lot of really good candidates, but if it was up to me Frostbeard would definitly have a job in the VHL soon. I know I am not the one making the decisions, but he really derserves it.

Welcome everyone, In this fourth part of the mini-series, where I talk about the prospects of the Rome Gladiators, I will present you antonio marchand @Tapirman. marchand played 10 games with the Ottawa Lynx in S84 and recorded 2 goals and 11 points. He was then drafted 49th overall by the Houston Bulls in the S85 dispersal draft and played for them for the next three seasons. In 216 games over the three seasons, he scored 96 goals and added 136 assists for a total of 232 points. antonio marchand finished his career in the VHLM and is expected to play in the E with the Rome Gladiators next season. With those stats, antonio is now leading the Bulls for the number of goals in his career with the team, he is also second in points and third in assists. He had a really good career in the VHLM and we really hope that he will continue like that in the VHLE. Thanks everyone, see you next week and let's go Gladiators!!!
