So as we all know ( and as @samx is gleefully anticipating), this is Jesse Teno's last season and I have been asked the question whether I will be recreating at TDL or at the end of the season. And so I pose to you, members of the VHL, the question of what you think the pros and cons are of both. I still don't fully understand how it works other than I have max carryover of TPE. So tell me; what do you see as the benefits and pit falls of the recreate options?

If you want a swing at 1OA for your new player, you are better off recreating at TDL.

(stats for Janser, stats for Kagamine)

The New York Americans around their alternate captain Janser have played eight games and show a 4-2-2 record, good enough for fourth place in the North American Conference. The Swiss defender has had a somewhat inconsistent start, but is still par for the course to match last season's offensive numbers. We will now showcase two games the Americans played. A New York team who by the way is considered by pundits to be one of the contending teams in the league. It certainly helps to have the most recent Clegane Winner 36xW between the pipes who was FISTED ANALLY BY A CIRCUS MONKEY in the Stolzschweiger voting by the powers to be. The jury considered the cocky greenskin Grimgor Ironhide to be the better choice.

6-1

In our first featured match, the team out of the Big Apple took the squad from the City of Angels for a ride in a 6-1 landslide win. Especially Analfist had a field day with the Californian defence, which barely deserved that name in this encounter. The veteran forward scored a hattrick in the span of two minutes, with the first marker coming on the man advantage. That was all the goals for the first period. In the second frame, retiring center Lecavalier re-installed the three goal lead ten seconds after Swearingen scored a goal for the Stars. In the final twenty minutes, Jeannot and Analfist with his fourth of the night but the last nails into Los Angeles' coffin. The three Stars were awarded to Analfist (4g/2a), Yvel (0g/4a) and Jeannot(1g/2a). Sophomore netminder 36xW (.950) dominated McCagg (.891) in the duel in the crease, with the latter finally getting a chance as a starter for the West Coast outfit. The Americans' power play was decent (1/4), while their box play was immaculate (4/4). This is a good foundation for success.

Janser left the ice with a 0g, 0a, -1, 4 PIM (Interference, Holding, obviously no effect on the score), 2 hits and 1sb record

Kagamine logged 0g, 0a, +5, 0 PIM, 0 hits and 2sb

4-5 (SO)

The next game we feature was much closer with the bitter end for the Empire State team against their adversaries from Illinois. New York was off for a bad start when they allowed two goals in the first twenty minutes. In the second period, Davis with his first of the season cut the lead in half, before Chicago reinstated their advantage. Alas, the Americans came back with a vengeance and scored back to back goals with Mancini and again Davis finding the back of the net. In the third frame, both teams scored a goal each with Amish scoring for the red, white and blue. The game went into overtime and because neither goalie conceded a goal it was time to throw a dice in the penalty shoot out, which Chicago took home. Davis (2g/2a), Trunov (3g/0a) and Amish (1g/2a) were given the post-game honours. 36xW (.882) had to bow to Artyomov (.913) in a rather underwhelming netminder competition. New York's special teams contributed heavily to the defeat with 0/6 for the power play and 3/5 for the penalty killing.

Janser was noted with 0g, 3a, +1, 2 PIM (Roughing, no goal scored in the ensuing Chicago power play), 1 hit and 1sb

Rin had 0g, 0a, +1, 2 PIM (Holding, lead to a goal against), 1 hit and 0sb to her name.

And here are the stats for 'The Beauty and the Beast' for the season:

Kagamine: 8gp, 2g, 0a, 2pts, +4, 10 PIM, 7 hits, 15sb, 1ppg, 1gwg

Janser: 8gp, 1g, 6a, 7pts, +2, 18 PIM, 23 hits, 12sb, 0ppg, 0gwg

We will report from these two defenders in due course, meanwhile please find some related articles down below.

My co-worker's wife works for them, so this is why I know... 

Actually, Orlen is a Polish Petrol Company (almost having the monopoly for gas stations in Poland). The name is composed from 'Orzel' (Polish for 'Eagle') and 'Energia' (Energy).

I know. I checked on that as well. And whether you are eligible for it in the first place, as I thought you were playing VHLM...

I am trying to eat better (no in-betweens like a hobbit anymore and reducing on the sodas). Plus will start using that rowing machine we bought and gathered dust so far.

A really nice day today in my corner of the world. Agreed with a work colleague to grab some food and go to the lake to have a 'pick-nick'...

This why I am always a bit uneasy when we go to Denmark or the Netherlands (countries are flat as a pancake)... I grew up surrounded by mountains and I miss them when in areas where there are none to speak of.

Well deserved Jersey retirement. Molly the Cat lead a somewhat despised (or ridiculed) franchise to a Continental Cup win (and a final), setting various franchise records doing so. Chapeau @JCarson

I mean, I know it's 2024, not 2014... the league, technological culture, the world, has changed a lot... but one of my favourite things about this community was coming to this thread late-night and just browsing the ridiculous threads that this subforum had to offer. Is that a thing of the past? Has Discord rendered this forum semi-redundant and inadvertently segregated the VHL community?

 

Regardless, hi all of you. Hope your weekend is going well and you're doing great. I'm here if you want to have some good vibes. 

 

Hey Phil. Fam and I went to EuropaPark (one of the bigger entertainment parks in Europe) as we won the tix in a lottery. It was pre-pre-opening so only 25,000 people were admitted (and all of them always were on the same ride as us  )

It was fun but also exhausting at springy temperatures of around 15 centigrade (60F for imperialists)... no booze involved, as 1. I am not a big drinker to start with and 2. it is still lent.

1. The begin of a new season is here. What are the goals for your player?

2. What did your player pass his off-season with?

3. If you are participating in the VHFL, what positions do you tend to pick first and why? If you are not, what would your draft strategy be if you were?

4. Has our resident methusalem Phil Strasmore a shot at the HOF? Or is he more of a candidate for Gustav's 'Hall of not bad'? Elaborate your judgement.

5. I have been on Amusement Park over the weekend. What kind of ride do you like most?

6. What is your favourite amusement park food and why? 

2/5 uncapped package

After the military service, the World Cup and a sweep defeat with the Birmingham Dragons against the Winnipeg Royals, his dad's team in the ProAm, Callum is heading home. He wonders whether Rin is already back in NYC. Well, he did not have to wait long, for that question to be answered. As soon as he landed at JFK and switched his phone back on he got a text from his roomie. 'Landing at JFK, 1230hrs. Can you pick me up?'. The Swiss immediately went to the next car rental and got a car for the day, as he had only 30 minutes left, until the 'Nagasaki Nightingale' landed. So he threw his belongings into the boot, texted the Japanese defender that he will pick her up and got back to the arrival terminal to do so. It took quite some time until the minuscule back showed up and Janser immediately understood what the issue was. 'Beast' left New York with one piece of carry-on and one medium sized checking luggage. She arrived in the Big Apple with two extra duffel bags, which looked pretty heavy. Callum relieved Rin from the luggage, carrying as if it weighed nothing.

'Did you buy a samurai kit while you were in Japan?'.

'No, most of it are the Manga's you have asked for. And then some clothing my family insisted I take with me. I could at least talk them out of cooking for me for the next few weeks. They still think there is no decent food in the US.'

'They do not know about Myoko-san's Japanese Restaurant in Soho then?'

'They think I invented him so they do not worry about my well being.'

'You should bring them over once. So I can meet them. You told me so much about your family, I would really like to get to know them in person.'

'Funny you should say that. My dad mentioned that him and mother would come over during the coming season.'

'Wow, that is awesome. It is their first time in the US, innit?'

'Yes, it is. But still some time till then.'

While talking the 'Beauty and the Beast' have arrived at the car, and CGY dropped the luggage in the boot, while Rin sat on the passenger seat.

And so Cal drove Rin and himself home to Mulberry Street to their appartement.
