Ball

Talk like that won't get you any votes good sir

Good luck Mike. May the best man notnamedMike win!

Looks like someone has the "advantage" OOOOOOOO

Yeah what they said.

Makes sense that SEA G plays the Dynamo, but Smyl plays the Reign.

My bad guys must have forgot there was a game today.

Like: Dustin Brown Giroux Datsyuk Phaneuf Jimmy Howard AT: Nicklas Lidstrom Hate: Crosby Avery Malkin AT: Lindros Did I mention Crosby Fuck Crosby

Damn I gotta face off with the man who can win a Cup without a goalie. I'm fucked

Content: 3/3- Interesting ending to your two part MS on intro music for the teams of the VHL. Good choice of songs for each team and I like that you gave reasons behind the selections. Grammar: 1.5/2 - Alot of these are just added words or missing letters, but to many mistakes to give you full marks. the teams in the five teams = the five teams the one of = one of in of them = of them pick = picked it’ - it's has - had team has seen = team hasn't seen Appearance: 1/1- Videos and pics. Overall: 5.5/6

Content: 3/3- First off, welcome back Meg. Glad to see you came back and are deciding to keep working with Tremblay. I like the little back story giving a reason for your dissappearance. Overall interesting story, good job. Grammar: 2/2- Just this one, but otherwise really nice job. to only here to represent = Not sure what your doing here, but it sounds funny Appearance: 1/1- Yup Overall: 6/6

Content: 3/3- I'm glad to see you are performing well in your first season as a player in the VHLM. Yes the Ottawa Lynx aren't going to live up to last years team, which I believe won the Cup, but it's nice to see that the Lynx have a silver lining to look forward to. Good luck for the rest of the season Grammar: 2/2- Correct me if I'm wrong, but I didn't catch anything major. Appearance: 1/1- I'm gonna let you slide with this since you got some color and atleast one pic. Don't just color a few words, i suggest making one whole paragraph on color. Take a look at some other MS's in the future to see how they are set up and feel free to use that color my brotha. Overall: 6/6

Content: 3/3- A nice look at the Bern Royals, who seem to be playing very well this season. Alot of people will overlook them because Bratslavia has alot of big names on the team, but it will be interesting to see if Bern can possibly upset the star studded group come playoff time. Grammar: 1.75/2- Not horrible here but to many mistakes for a smaller article. You use commas when you don't need to and then will forget them later on when you need them. Thats about the only problem i saw besides these minor mistakes. forward = forwards over power = overpower 200 points, it has = 200 points? It has ability but = ability, but Appearance: 1/1- Color and pix. Its beautiful! Overall: 5.75/6

C'Mon Crosby, your better than that

Another close loss to the Legion hot damn. Good game Toronto

4-1 Americans

Legion Meute Iron Eagles Dynamo

First hatty of the career! Good game Riga

Are They Really Who We Thought They Were? Welcome back to “Are They Who We Thought They Were?” We are back to pay homage to Dennis Green's legendary meltdown by continuing to analyze the various teams in the VHL. Last week we took a look at the top two teams in the North American Conference, the Quebec City Meute and the Toronto Legion. The Meute were what we thought they were, that being arguably the best team in the VHL. Meanwhile, Toronto surprised us all, showing us that in S36 they aren't all just Remy Lebeau. This week we got a treat for you as we will check in on three teams. Yea, I know I'm a great guy, your quite welcome. First will be the HC Davos Dynamo, followed by the Helsinki Titans, and finish up with the Seattle Bears. Have these three teams lived up to their expectations or have they surprised us 30 games into the season? The HC Davos Dynamo Who We Thought They Were: One player/season away Who They Really Are: The top dog in the European Conference After acquiring Sergey Brovalenko from the Seattle Bears in S35 and picking up Odin Tordahl in the offseason, you could tell Davos was on the brink of becoming a threat in the EU. A good young team with a solid goaltender and a lot of depth, even a blind man could see they were just one player away from being a contender in S36. One of those men was Victor Alfredsson, who decided it was now or never to pull the trigger. Just a few games in the S36 campaign, the Dynamo shocked the league when they gave up two first round picks to acquire Davey Jones, the promising center from the Cologne Express. So far the trade has paid off, as the Dynamo sit atop of the European Conference, 9 points above the S35 conference champion Helsinki Titans. The offense has been phenomenal thus far, leading the league in goals scored with 120 in 30 games. Davey Jones has led the offensive onslaught this season and is second in the league with 55 points. The only problem with Davos has been in net, as Lennox Moher has struggled a bit in S36, which is surprising with his skill. The Dynamo look to be the real deal this season, but will the lack of experience from boasting such a young roster catch up to them come playoffs? The Helsinki Titans Who We Thought They Were: The cream of the crop in the European Conference Who They Really Are: The Big Three with no help The S36 Titans remind me of the Miami Heat when they first acquired the Big Three. People kinda just thought they were automatically the best team in their conference and would eventually make it to the VHL Finals without much of a fight. I mean they won the cup in S34 and made it back to the finals in S35. But, the loss of Odin Tordahl to free agency has really hurt the Titans thus far into the season. Don't get me wrong, Helsinki is still a very dangerous team this season. The second highest scoring team in the league, the Titans are tied for the third best team overall record wise. Ethan Osborne has carried the team scoring wise, along with Anatoli Zhumbayev, leading the league in scoring with 58 points in 30 games. But after those two there isn't anyone really playing above and beyond. Second year center Namoi Young and third year defenseman Willie Weber are playing okay, but the lack of depth scoring after those two is a big problem for the Titans. In net, Tuomas Tukio has been getting it done, placing fourth in the league in both goals against average and save percentage. Helsinki will need to make a move at the trade deadline if they wish to continue their dominance of the European Conference. But, even if they can't get anything done, don't sleep on the Titans come the playoffs. The Seattle Bears Who We Thought They Were: One player/season away from contention Who They Really Are: One player/season away from contention Same shit, different day. Right when you think the Bears were finally going to burst onto the scene known as playoff contention, they throw you a curveball. With the Calgary Wranglers going into full blown rebuild mode and the New York Americans boasting a team of rookies, it looked like the Bears were gonna waltz into playoff contention in S36. But for the past couple seasons, nothing has been easy for the Bears. They are a up and coming team with a plethora of young talent, but the lack of a true superstar has really hurt the Bears this season. Though better than the past couple of seasons, the offense continues to struggle, only scoring 79 goals in 30 games, good for fourth worst in the league. Sebastian Ball Jr. and Zack Sound have been the silver lining for the offense. Ball Jr. is eighth in the league in scoring with 40 points and Sound has recorded 34 points while also placing ninth in the league in hits. The defense for the Bears is there as usual, with Karsten Olsen and James Lefevre playing pretty well through 30 games. In fact, along with Godavari Yumalatopinto, the defense has allowed the fourth least amount of shots to go past them in the VHL. Another big problem with the Bears is the early struggles of Steven Smyl, the second year goaltender. Smyl has not played up to his potential is S36 and even when he does, the offense decides to not show up. The Bears really need that offensive juggernaut to push them over the edge of contention, so next season should be a better one for Seattle. Well that does it for this week folks. Next week, we will take a look at three new teams to see if they are up to par with their preseason expectations. Were at the halfway mark in our series, so stay tuned if your team hasn't been named yet. Hell, even if they have been covered, come check us out next week as this wacky S36 campaign rolls on. Until next week boys, have a good one.

Thank god we get to play the Wranglers after our strings of losses.

Damn no offense whatsoever though? Alrighty then. Good game Cologne

Since no one can hear you in the first podcast, reuse some of your older questions that aren't time relevant. And so you have some new ones, here you go. Are you surprised with the success that Davos has had this season? Who will have the better season, Brovy or Davey Jones? Are there any teams that Brovy has been on that you wish you could have stayed on? (barring problems with members, ect.) Do you realize that Brovy will never be as good as Ball? How does that make you feel to always be #2 to me? If a tree falls in the forest, does it make a sound? If it does, does anyone really give a shit? I mean its a tree, fuck them. I concur that is how I did my first podcast. Iphone to be exact.

I'm pretty sure everyone but Chris McZehrl knew what he was talking about

4-3 Legion
