Isn’t he above 60 rn? Still sick to be selected tho lol, W article

DONT YOU DARE RUIN THIS JACOB!!! IVE BEEN WAITING 2 YEARS FOR SOMETHING LIKE THIS TO HAPPEN AND IF YOU THROW OFF TH EBALANCE I SWEAR I WILL DO WHAT RETOSLAV DID TO DIL IN VASTERAS You're a little out of date my friend, 3 of the top 10 scorers in the league are on San Diego...

Also really good job btw

Jean-Pierre Devote and Dwight Schrute would like to have a word with you xD

Jean-Pierre Devote, now also known as "Monegasque McJesus" by San Diego fans, is currently on fire, rocketing to the top of the VHLM, and showing that his skill was never purely theoretical. He's started to become so good compared to the other players in the league that he is now SINGLE HANDEDLY killing teams on multiple occasions. These teams that have gone up against San Diego since Devote's decision to turn it on have stood zero chance due to the Monegasque player. There have been a few examples of this happening, the first one being Game 32, against Saskatoon. The Marlins won this game 3-1, Devote scored EVERY. SINGLE. GOAL. Now this was before his current charge, but it was a little teaser of what was to come in the next little while after the game. Then, in Game 125 against Houston, Devote showed further prowess by pocketing 2 goals and 2 assists in the 5-2 win over the Bulls. He also picked up the game winning goal, which leads into the fact that Devote currently is leading the entire VHLM in game winning goals, with 6. During this game, there was a 43 second span in the 2nd period where Devote had 5 shots on net and a goal. He would end this game with a total of 10 shots on goal, with his line combining for a total of 19 shots. Devote's high defensive skill (highest in the league among forwards), has also been showing as he currently sits at 20 shot blocks this season, and if takeaways were recorded by STHS, Devote would undoubtedly lead the league in that category. Majority of zone entrances by San Diego's 2nd line come from him intercepting a pass, knocking someone off the puck, or blocking a shot in the Marlins' zone and rushing up the ice with his linemates. Devote's pure dominance was further shown in his past 2 games, as in Game 131 against Mexico City, he once again would kill an entire team. In the 4-1 Marlins win, Devote once again had 3 goals, including the game winner, though he only had 4 shots on net in the game. Then in Game 138 against Halifax, against former teammate and fellow top S93 prospect Antonia Bucatini Devote would show why fans have given him the nickname of "Monegasque McJesus", pocketing another 2 goals and an assist, though he did not score the game winner this time around. While Bucatini tried to prove her dominance with 2 goals of her own, it was not enough and Devote's assist on the game winning goal sealed the fate of the Halifax 21st, San Diego would take the game 4-2, on the back of another amazing game by Devote, who had 8 shots on net in that one. Devote's current dominance has ascended to a level rarely seen in the Hybrid Era, and he already looks poised for the title of Best Monegasque Player in VHL History. While VHLM stats mean very little in the grand scheme of things, this dominant performance is definitely a sign of good things to come. (518 Words)

The only change I'd think of for making that cheaper is by dropping it to 4 TPE, and even then it could be too much, I enjoy hybrid attributes, just like you said, a generational talent should be difficult to make. The league's scoring has been far more realistic since the implementation of hybrid attributes (ignore the VHLM), and I disagree with Berocka that it lowers build flexibility as if you actually look at the VHL nowadays, there are so many more nuanced builds with different focuses instead of only 2 or 3 like there were back in the Meta-Era. I also hated them initially, but have come to like them more because of the realism factor and the fact that there is now a significant and realistic gap between a HOFer and a normal player, instead of the gap being 150 points per season Vs 120 points per season.

So... 6 points last sim... making it now 24 points in 10 games!

Jean-Pierre Devote had a relatively slow start to the VHLM season, after going under a point per game through the first 18 games of the season, sitting at just 17 points. Since then however, Devote has been on fire. With San Diego losing their #1 defenseman in Factor Lee, Devote stepped up and has now become one of the top scorers in the league. He is no longer a force to be reckoned with just on paper, but is now climbing the ladder in VHLM points and is currently ranked 9th in the league with 35 points in 26 games. This sets his most recent scoring pace at an insane 18 points in his last 8 games, along with being +14 in that span. This trend is eerily similar to what Connor McDavid did this current NHL season, when after a slow start, he put up 25 points in just 13 games and climbed all the way back up to the top ten in NHL points. Could this be a sign that Devote will be the VHL's version of Connor McDavid? Could he be the next big thing and actually achieve his goal of being the best Monegasque hockey player ever? If he can continue on this trajectory, then the answer to both of those questions is undoubtedly, yes. (219 Words)

Devote flying completely under the radar with 18 points in his last 8 games x-x

Ehhhhhhhhhh you never know!

1. I'm a little disappointed considering we have two of the top players in the S93 draft class on the team as well as Devote having some of the highest STHS attributes in the entire league, but I'm confident with a little experimentation we'll turn things around. 2. Devote is performing okay, not great, but not horrible. 17 points in 18 games is below where I hoped he would be, but he does also have 10 goals which is nice. 3. I think Devote can step up, considering he has the highest DF attribute on the team, sitting at 60 on the dot, he is a two way forward after all. 4. Chocolate for sure, but only milk chocolate, dark tastes horrible. 5. I don't actually know, we're kinda in a weird spot where we are losing games we should win and are winning games that are more questionable, so we don't truly have one. 6. Australia, since I've been to quite a few popular vacation spots, but Australia is one that I've never made it to. I hope I will someday get to visit though.

I'll get the goal done eventually but Exams are soon so... IRL takes priority!

Pretty sure that's Payne lol

Looking to get back into GMing so I’ll apply

I feel I should say this: 10. Perry Lapierre 9. Tomas Sogaard 8. Leandro Goncalves 7. Scotty Sundin 6. Landon Wolanin 5. Bo Johansson 4. Jake Thunder 3. Nico Pearce 2. Ronan Lavelle 1. Daniel Janser Updated list with where I feel the rankings should actually be, based on feedback and new info from S91.

claim for this week

Devote and Del Rocco need to step it up x-x

Del Rocco and Devote:

That was my role with Retoslav, ~700 TPA and not fully maxing every week

TY lol, I've been traded to San Diego now tho so I'm all set

Glad you liked it! definitely the most effort I've ever put into an article for the league

1. Molly, because she's got that dog in her, or that cat in her I guess... whatever she has in her she'll score first. 2. Probably like 15 at most, because London has so many top scorers right now. It would make sense that very few bots end up scoring. 3. .910+ SV%, with a GAA around 2.9 I'd imagine. Just because backup goalies tend to overperform in London, all the time, every season... 4. Yes, becaus ethe only changes are the loss of Retoslav, Nesbitt, and Solyom, who have all been replaced by new players, with Sjin stepping up to fill Retoslav's spot as the 2C for the team. 5. Probably Maloish, jus tbased off the OV attribute among the new additions, and the fact that they are on of the top Defense on the team. 6. 9/10, because he's always a W GM, London hasn't had a "bad" season since he took over.

Nah I get that, I was just making sure you knew that I was here and active for VHFL, so that I didn't get disqualified for getting skipped twice lol

Jean-Pierre Devote was selected 5th Overall in the S92 VHLM Draft by Mississauga, and according to some rumors flying around within the Mississauga camp, Devote wants nothing to do with the team that drafted him. In fact, Devote has yet to be seen in Mississauga, and many doubt that he's even flown into the city yet due to his unwillingness to play for the Franchise. Devote is the consensus 3rd best player in the S93 Draft Class, so losing such a player would be a massive blow to an already bad roster situation in Mississauga. According to a spokesperson from the Hounds, Devote has filed a trade request, and remains intent to spend as little time signed to Mississauga as he possibly can. The reasons cited by Jean-Pierre in his request were, "The team's roster is completely unbalanced with a 6-0-0 set up as of turning in this request, I somehow have the highest TPE and TPA on the team by over 20, despite being a season younger than many of the other players on the Hounds' roster, and the fact that playing on a team like the current Mississauga lineup will be a massive detriment, not only to my development, but also to my goal of being the best Monegasque player in VHL history." While Devote has zero desire to play for Mississauga, he also has no harsh feelings for the team's management, having only 2 picks in the draft is tough, and it was just unlucky that the Monegasque player was dragged into the mess of the Hounds' rebuild.
