  1. Yeah, there's the espn one as well, but that was regular season.
  2. With news that the New York Americans had scraped into the playoffs earlier today, was met with a thunderous reaction from the devoted fan-base. It had been a struggle at times this season and often looked like the Americans were going to be heading home early to relax and watch the VHL's better teams battle it out for Continental Cup glory. Now the team is preparing for the finals, hoping to find a better chemistry than was on display at certain times this season. One player who has struggled for a number of reasons, has been disappointing forward Vaydar Odinsson. The much hyped young Norwegian was second, only to eventual ROTY Julian Borwinn in his rookie year but has been poor since and struggled to make an impact behind players like Dan Wilinsky and Leph Twinger. His ice time has reduced and so have his opportunities to contribute to the teams statsheet on a more productive basis. A 60 point total(30/30) simply isn't good enough in Odinsson's eyes and it's been reported that once the season has been completed, he will make his way to Free Agency to try and find the best fit moving forward. That fit may well be New York, but it remains to be seen if this new development will see the Americans Front Office cut their losses and move on from the unpredictable and untrustworthy BOOM™ Agency. Several GM's, if not all, are aware that Odinsson, like an orchid, needs certain conditions to thrive and grow to his full potential. The only question is; where will that greenhouse be?
  3. Firstly, thanks for the questions. I'd actually missed your post and was wallowing in even more self-pity than usual so didn't even check this thread. What are your agency's plans once Odinsson retires? Well I think I stated in a VHL.com article that Vaydar will be my final VHL player when his time ends. I'm not really into the VHL as much as I was with my early players, so I think it really is time to end the relationship once and for all. Can this Americans team still make the playoffs with how inconsistent they've been? I think they can just manage to sneak in from the results of the final sim. Just call me Nostradamus. What has been your favourite part of the whole VHL experience? I'd have to say the friendships I've made and seeing my better players develop and perform within the STHS engine. I lucked out with a couple of them but I'd put the work in and it finally paid off. Favourite pregame ritual? I simply listen to my pump up playlist, stretch and get dressed from my left side first. It's not exciting but it's always been the same. If you had to start a franchise, would you take someone like Carey Price or say Nathan MacKinnon at their current skill and age? I'll be right back, I'm just googling who those guys are. Oh, OK. They are hockey people. I'd probably take Price, purely on position scarcity. There's a few great skaters with tremendous skill, but elite goaltending is hard to come by. Favourite type of protein? It might seem odd, but Kangaroo is great. It's a little gamey, but very lean, a ton of iron and even though it's better marinaded, it can be used a lot of ways. Apparently there's 60 million of the fucking things jumping around down here, so killing and consuming the bloody things will also benefit the environment.
