GG CANADA!

Amazing name! Welcome to the league! Feel free to ask me or anyone else any questions that you have. You got here right before the draft so I think you will be in the upcoming VHLM draft (the minor league). Good luck and I hope you stick around!

Ixazaluoh Hones Defense at WJHC Seeing himself selected as the 4th defenseman for Team World, Cadmael knew that he was lucky to be chosen for such a role. "I am sure that there were many suitable candidates, I am happy to just be selected to show teams what I can do." Cadmael was initially not expecting to be playing during his off-season but a selection from Team World GM @Alexandre caught him unawares and provided a unique opportunity for the budding defender to hone his skills against future competitors and current contenders. "Being able to play with players regarded as some of the best for our experience levels is just humbling, and I look forward to doing what I can for the team." According to the Team World GM in his announcement of the roster, "Ixazaluoh has a great vision and can read the games pretty well so he can block shots or intercept the pass." And thus far, he has proven he is more than capable of doing so. Team World has since qualified for the medal game play-in and will faceoff with a red-hot Team Europe. Cadmael's performace was that of living up to his expectations and setting out to achieve what he was put on the team for. Through 8 games he has only aimed for the net 2 times, through the first 7 games not opting to shoot once. Though, he ended up with 7 assists, leaving him with 7 points for the first 8 games. He has certainly focused more on the defensive aspect of his game, racking up 22 hits and only 4 PIM, with 13 total shots blocked. This performance almost mirrors his performance in the VHLM as a robust two-way defenseman where he emphasized his output on setting up passes for goal scorers and breaking up opposing attacks. With the semi-finals on the horizon Cadmael had this to say: "It is not often that you get selected for such a humbling role, and I am just honored to be a part of the Tournament and Team World. I cannot lie however, I wish to ultimately see us as the victors and believe that though there are many who doubt us, we can pull though." With the draft just around the corner, more eyes than ever are on Cadmael's performance. Will his performance indicate his future performance, or is it just a taste of what's to come? Only time will tell. 402 words

LETS GO WORLD!!!

Fantastic article as always! Appreciate the mention!

Some solid G numbers! Putting my vote for the oversized walrus.

I apply for thi- wait.

Hey! I'd also like to apply! I'm new to the GM scene but I have experience with other simulators and what-not, I also am decently active on the forums and Discord to keep things lively and to maintain the press conference.

Sign me up, please!

I admire the idea you had with the graphic coloring and it was certainly a good choice in the player photo you chose. That said, this is very good as a starter and I look forward to seeing how you improve! Your next step should be about adding more effects to the image, like someone else said I'm not familiar on your knowledge level but definitely play around with some more layers to add things! 6.5/10

Congrats to the new GMs! Good luck to y'all! teach me though

Congrats to the two teams!

Nice, little interlude to have in-between seasons! Marcel still being injured pains me to see, but Daniel is certainly taking off. I love how you format your 'meetings' in the article as actual interactions between the players and GMs. As always, a very fun read, 9/10!

1: Today is game 7 of the VHML finals. Which team do you think will win? OTTAWA!!!!! 2: Which team are you hoping to be drafted to? To make this interesting let's say Reaper's are not an option. I have no preference. My only wish is to have an impact on whatever team I join. 3: Were you chosen for a WJC team? If so, how do you think you will perform? I was! Team World is certainly looking interesting and I have a familiar face on the team! It will be fun to see how we do for our last hurrah. 4: Which aspect of your game are you hoping to improve this off season? I am hoping to just conserve my energy and save my performance for when the season begins. I will continue to train, but just not focus on a single thing in specific. 5: How many goals are you hoping to get next season? I will not focus on goals. I will however, focus on helping others get them. 6: Which WJC team do you think is the strongest? (World, Asia, Canada, USA, Europe) Canada most likely. Though we could have a chance with Team World....

Yeah I could definitely do better no doubt. Once I get a better feel for the tools I think I'll do better. I'm learning from kinda just looking at others haha

....isn't hard when you're the only one who shows up.

The face on that render is a solid 15/10. The jersey recolor is very well done and the changes to the coloration on the jersey help mask the logo change really well. Might just be the blue/red color scheme but that part just seems super basic compared to the rest of the photo. But you might have been going for that "generic" tool vibe that I get from it. Overall a very solid piece, 8/10

Awesome! Being on the team with y'all has been really dope. That said, this graphic fits Mikael *perfectly*. The render and the text match overall and the coloring you did at the bottom is very well done as well. The outlines around the render really make it pop, so despite there not being much going on, it really makes it look like there is. My only gripe is that it is a bit small. Otherwise, fantastic! 9/10

IXAZALUOH PREPARES FOR DRAFT With his VHLM Playoff Debut cut-short, Latin American Cadmael Ixazaluoh looks toward the upcoming drafts of the VHL and VHLE. Pretty consistently, Cadmael has charted well against others in his draft class, ranking usually among the top 10 on paper. Though noticeably, he has been left out of many pundits Top 10 counts and draft predictions, even being left out of first round predictions in some cases. When we asked Cadmael on his thoughts about this and the upcoming draft, he had this to say: "I am just grateful for the opportunity to play. I have come from a place that has not quite heard of hockey, let alone played it. To me, all that matters is doing the best that I can for a team that needs me. Whether that team chooses to take me first, or last, wherever I end up, I want to have an impact. I believe that I let my skills speak for me this season, I do not need to rely on others to tell me that I am not up to expectations or meet the 'caliber' of others in the draft. I put everything I have on the ice, I stay as a source of encouragement and honesty in the locker room, and no matter where I end up, I will continue to do these things." The Philadelphia Reapers suffered a devastating 3OT loss to the Minnesota Storm in the VHLM playoffs this past season. We asked Cadmael about his time with the team: "Without the Reapers, I would not be Cadmael. These boys have taught me not only to play hockey, but to play it well. Mason (@Masu Chan) remained a source of leadership and guidance, as well as motivation to perform better for myself. The Janser boys I will miss playing with. Something about having both of them there was very motivating. Most of all though, I will miss my line-mate and friend for the whole season. El Coronel, himself. George Sanderson (@SpicyGecko). He was line partner through the rough beginning and the beautiful end. I am grateful for his companionship. I can only pray that the stars allow us to be linemates again soon." Many teams GMs have been reaching out to prospective draft picks for pre-draft interviews. Have you done any so far, and if not what are you doing to prepare? "I've done one, sort of. It was brief. As for preparation, well not much I can do aside from tell the staff on the team exactly what I told you. I want to work hard and have an impact from the get-go." As the next big stepping stone for Ixazaluoh, this coming few weeks will certainly be a life-changer for him. Will he continue his success? Only time will tell.

1: Let's get this question out of the way first. We were eliminated in the 1st round, which team do you think will win the VHML Championship? I don't care. It's not us so it's irrelevant who wins. What matters is that we had a hell of a season and the people that we played with will be absolute forces of nature. 2: The Reaper Awards will be held tonight. Are you excited? 3: Which attribute of your player are you going to focus on most in the off season? Most likely going to work on my defensive skill and passing. I am aiming to be a big threat wherever I go to. 4: Are you excited for the drafts? Eh. More or less. I've been disappointed in the lack of interviews I've had but I could just be thinking too much into it. 5: How many points do you intend to get next season regardless of what league you play in? I just want to be a valuable asset. Whether that is scoring points, or feeding the point scorers. 7: I recently chose the Portland Winterhawks as my favorite WHL team. Do you have a favorite team in that league? The what? 8: What's your favorite hockey trick? (Example: Between the Legs shots, Michigan, Datsyuk Flip?) Michigan. I want to do that someday. 9: Who's the most underrated NHL Goalie? Spencer Knight, my god what a rock.

I ended up going to his profile and literally searching through everything @bigAL ever posted. Then I didn't find anything. Then I clicked on @Alex_J32's profile and refreshed the page while he did it to get the answer.

Sad that my time with the Jansers was cut so soon!

Instead of graphics, I took the time to actually sit down and listen to a podcast to review. Overall, very informative of the new players joining and I could see why people would want the info so as to maybe pick up someone who may have gone unnoticed on the forum (doubt that ever happens). My only real advice would be to focus less on filling for time and just speak your thoughts! You seem to form some very well-thought out opinions and you explain them rather thoroughly and you tend to stop yourself to check how much time you've talked. I would just rather hear your whole thought! 10/10!
