1. How do you think can we catch LA and should we even try? 2. Theme week is looming on the Horizon. What do you think will be the topic? 3. If you were GM what move if any would you make at TDL? 4. Who do you think will win the tank battle between Seattle and Davos and why? 5. What is your preferred TV snack? 6. What places you have traveled to did you enjoy the most and why?

a little off-topic but some trivia to the name 'Pinscher' (non-dog people can discontinue reading now as it is very dog specific). Min Pin's original proper name is 'Rehpinscher' (literal translation is 'deer pincher'). They are called that because they were bred as hunting dogs, chasing deer down and pinch them in the legs to bring the game to the ground. By the way Dobermann are also 'Pinscher' (and both were originally bred in Germany) and hence the 'Mini-me' look between Minpin and Dobermann. Dobermann were used for hunting predators like fox, stoat and raven (this is a definition I took over from Wiki) and were quickly adopted into police service (and thereby earning the nickname 'Gendarmenhund'). Just for the lols I would go for a Minpin instead of Dalmatian (and because Dalmatians tend to have a plethora of genetic defects like deafness and kidneystones). But I will refrain from polling, as I am of the opinion the dog chooses its master and not vice versa.

FART VANDELAY

I am no expert on the engine either. I just like physical players and am willing to sacrifice some production. DJ was pretty physical as well and got a HOF career out of it... your argument is still valid though that time in the bin does not help with your production.

BC is indeed not very efficient, but there are points in your progression where it is more efficient than the alternatives (if you are willing to pay the price in form of more PIM). With my last and even more so with my current player, this is a price I am willing to pay. To than backtrack and invest in DI again appears indeed anything but efficient to me.

Now that is the Forum Content the VHL needs

You can still draft him into Slytherin Seattle Bears, though

Is this Corey Perry-Bedard?

The New York Americans have different public relation programs in place. The players are obliged to participate on a minimum amount of same but can pick and choose from them. Callum volunteered to teach kids skating in the Central Park, whereas Rin offered to give a concert to the public at the same location. Free of charge, of course. A lot of New Yorkers showed up to profit from these offers. When it was a ten year old girl's turn was up to skate with the Swiss back, she said 'If I am grown up, I want to become as good as a hockey player as you, Callum.' 'Oh dear, don't strive to be like me. Strive to be better. Look at you go, you skate already better than I do.' The fan, her confidence clearly boosted by the compliment, started to try out faster turns and even managed to skate backwards. Meanwhile, Kagamine had both hands full to satisfy the numerous requests for autographs and selfies after she finished her performance. The Americans organization arranged for some food trucks for the attending NYA supporters, also with no charge for the citizens. It is their way to thank their loyal fans for their support over all these cup-less years. A condition 'The Beauty and the Beast' are determined to change.

I see what you did there...

Well to be fair as long as the sim engine is still the same and predominantly relies on SC, PH, SK and Defence for the outcome of the sims, competitive players will inevitably have a similar build. Even if we were to switch engines, that would be the case in a jiffy UNLESS the powers to be let us user in the dark which attributes do exactly what in the engine and let us guess for 3-4 careers until we find out on ourselves. Rinse and repeat.

oh now I get it, mea culpa.

Speed, Leadership and Fighting are also 'single-use' hybrid attributes (just added for the sake of order as most people will not invest in LS and Fighting anyway)...

ART VANDELAY FOR THE HALL OF NOT BAD

I was not happy when it was introduced either as my player got basically chopped in half. However, Beks explained to me that the Hybrid system was addressing two issues at once: First the notorious meta plague (which is well known) but also a skill issue. Apparently STHS was never meant to deal with so many 99 attributes as were floating around in the pre-hybrid era and therefore the latter were borderline breaking the sim engine (or so I understood). While I understand ones frustration about the implied need to bank TPE from season 6/7 onwards to maintain level, I wish to point out that this is what RL ageing athletes have to do as well. They work out to maintain level and will not improve any further. I would advocate for a designated 4th depreciation fighter for those who need it (i.e. 9 season VHL-ers) to lessen the blow for the final season.

*whispers* DiPietro still gets money from the Islanders

graphic courtesy by Leandrofg (stats for Janser, stats for Kagamine) The Americans have played 27 games into the season. And their most recent trajectory is not good. The team started well into the season, competing for a place at the sun. Alas, with a 4-6-3 record in the last 13 games, they are one of the worst teams in the league during said period. There is a silver lining though, as through the combined efforts of 36xW and a very solid defence, only the first placed LA Stars have allowed fewer goals then the New Yorkers. Callum delivers as advertised and our correspondent from the Big Apple, Dick Hammer had a chance to talk to the Swiss defender. DH: 'Hey Callum. Thanks for agreeing to meet up with me.' CGY: 'No worries. I like to work with the press. They can make or break a career in the public eye and I rather have the former than the latter.' DH: 'The Americans started well into the season but lost a few tight games recently. What is your stance on the situation?' CGY: 'Well it would be easy to say a streak of bad luck. from the past 13 games we lost eight by one goal difference in mostly low scoring matches. Our netminder gives us a chance to fight every night and it is about time we help him out on the rink. Dude cannot also start scoring goals for us.' DH: 'There is indeed a blatant lack of scoring going on. It cannot be only bad luck, can it?' CGY: 'I agree with you. We just do not enough in the enemy zone to reliably win games. We analyzed the games and noticed that we try to play another pass and another one and yet another one until we lose the puck. We try to carry the puck into the net, which rarely works. I am guilty of this as well. As an alternate captain it is my job to lead by example and this is something I will adopt into my play style. I have to take responsibility and shoot more often even if the shooting lane is not perfect. After all, one of our promising prospects, 142 year old Wayne Gretzky told me, that I will miss every shot I do not take.' DH: 'There is indeed a blatant lack of goals on your score sheet.' CGY: 'And it bothers me to the moon and back. After the solid start we had into the season, I expected to have the odd goal against my name, but so far a big fat zero. We addressed that in the debriefings after the games and the coaching staff and I work on this. I cannot be an offensive free loader and push the scoring to others. DH: 'Let's talk about something more positive then. Your physical play so far has been exemplary, not only for a rookie but in general. You put veterans of the league with a similar play style like Calgary's Phil Strasmore to shame.' CGY: 'It is nice to be compared to the greats of the game, but I think I am nowhere near his level... yet. The dude has a cup ring to his name and was a staple for the Wranglers' blue line for as long as I can remember.' DH: 'So is there anything more you are not happy about in your game?' CGY: 'There are areas where I have some catching up to do, as I only started playing competitively in my twenties. But it would not do to spill the beans and give the opposition a leg up, would it?' DH: 'Understandable. That were all the questions I had. Thanks and good luck.' CGY: 'Thanks for having me.' Here are the stats for the rookie back duo, wearing the New York uniform: CGY: 27gp, 0g, 14a, 14pts, -6, 85 PIM, 102 hits, 42sb, 1 First Star nomination, 1/3 fights won, 2/3 fights tied Rin: 27gp, 4g, 3a, 7pts, -10, 6 PIM, 7 hits, 42sb https://vhlforum.com/topic/142737-the-cgy-janser-story-part-xi-regular-season-end/ https://vhlforum.com/topic/142903-the-cgy-janser-story-part-xii-round-one-accomplished/ https://vhlforum.com/topic/143134-the-cgy-janser-story-part-xiii-settling-in-in-new-york/ https://vhlforum.com/topic/143547-the-cgy-janser-story-part-xiv-another-title/ https://vhlforum.com/topic/144188-the-cgy-janser-story-part-xv-first-games-as-a-murican/
