Sjin

A unexpected tail from Sjin, he worked his way up though junior hockey slowly grinding out the opposition until eventually being given a chance to play for the prestiged San Diego Marlins who was under management by Jacob Carson at the time he gave Sjin an opportunity on a team that was underperforming, at the time little did he know that Sjin was going to become to face of the Franchise for seasons to come. Sjin played for the team for just 20 games amassing 27 points consisting of 6 goals and 21 assists. Soon came the draft where he would be drafted 51st overall to the Miami Marauders a team that had seen great success in the past, he played there for just 7 games where he didn't quite find his groove where he was only able to get 3 points in those games. After being under management of Carson and falling in love with the franchise for the short while he was there he demanded a trade out of Miami. Fortunately Jacob Carson and then GM nurx were able to figure out and agreement sending Sjin back to the San Diego Marlins where he felt most at home. During that season Sjin made great moves gaining 77 points in the remaining 65 games of the season consisting of 29 goals and 48 assists, this is where Sjin fell in love with the franchise and the league, at this point Sjin had decided he wanted to spend his entire career playing in the VHLM where he felt most comfortable and most at home. He went onto play for the franchise for another 4 seasons where he was able to get an incredible 467 points in 380 games consisting of 175 goals and 292 assists it was a very impressive resume. During this time he was Captain of the team where he lead the team in S86 to their first ever Founder's cup in franchise history the cup then eluded him in both S87 and S88 where he fell just short in gruelling series, despite being disheartened by recent team short comings Sjin was able to battle through and lead the San Diego Marlins to their second Founder's Cup during the S89 season where he had 9 goals and 8 assists for 17 points in just 15 games leading the league in play-off points, though it wasn't due to Sjin incredible offensive upside and two way game that won them the cup their goal tender at the time Clark really carried the team on his back with a 0.940SV% and 1.48GAA meaning that Sjin was never able to earn the most prestigious award in the VHLM the play-off MVP. 
 
Sjin wanted to continue his career through the VHLM however the commissioners of the leagues had other plans and put a direct stop to his mission of becoming the greatest VHLM scorer of all time by limiting the number of seasons a player is able to contend in the league. This really discouraged Sjin and almost resulting in him tying up the skates and giving up the sport of hockey forever, when your life long mission your goal has been taken away from you when the finish line is so close in your sights it really takes a toll on a player and makes it really difficult to keep moving forward. Fortunately Sjin was able to bounce back he decided to take the decision in his stride and really worked on his player aiming to prove that he could make it in the big leagues despite his humble beginnings, training was tough and at times he wasn't sure he was going to make it but he powered through and Signed with the Vasteras Iron Eagles where he was immediately traded to the Cologne Express the greatest VHLE franchise in existence it was during his time here that he was able to prove himself amongst some of the best players in Europe. The VHLE has recently shrunk to just 6 teams from 8 so it would be much more competitive and juggernaut teams would emerge the first of which being the Vasteras Iron Eagles. During his time in Cologne he was able to shock the league by scoring 86 points in just 72 games consisting of 37 goals and 49 assists this all during the time that there was only 8 players that were over point per game in the league so an incredibly impressive stat line. This would propel him into the play-offs where finishing as the 4th seed they would face up against the previously mentioned juggernaughts the Vasteras Iron Eagles he alongside Captain Keegan Gamble were able to defeat this monstrous opponent in just 5 games proving how dominant they are in the sport, they are now onto the finals where it is all the play for and it is uncertain at this point who will reign as the Champions of the league going into the S91 season. However, Sjin is confident in his Cologne Express that they will be able to win back to back trophies proving they are the best team in the VHLE.
 
Next season Sjin will be moving onto the VHL where he will play for London United trying to prove himself as the best player in a new league it will be hard, there are many much more experienced players in the league, but with the determination of Sjin nothing is impossible and who knows perhaps he will be able to lead London United to another Continental Cup championship he is a born leader and a born winner, it's all he knows how to do. Sjin will spend his remaining seasons with the franchise trying to prove himself as the best player in the entire VHL but only time will tell it will all come down to the STHS gods and if they wish to bless Sjin throughout his career moving forward.

1.  Vasteras. Solid solid team who dominated the league, they’ll be the team to beat and I could definitely see them hoisting the cup
 
2. Sijn or myself. We both had very good season finishing high in points. Both solid players who could really help Cologne against Vasteras 
 
3. Clark for sure. Although we had some doubts for goalies at the beginning of the year. He had a very solid year with good numbers 
 
4. Harry Callahan. Such a good player who can score goals. Finished first with goals in reg season so I don’t see him stopping now.
 
5. Otis B Jr or Sijn. Again both had very good seasons and finished Top 3 in points (Otis 1st and Sijn 3rd). 
 
6. As the owner of Henry let me tell you this… HENRY WILL BE STAYING!! I have been slacking with photos of Henry due to me being 18 hours away from him but just because Keegan is going up, doesn’t mean Henry is too. Henry will stay as Colognes mascot  

After spending several seasons developing in the M Sjin is finally ready to make his big move to Europe and prove himself against stronger opponents. After accumulating an impressive 467 points in 380 games it will be interesting to see what Sjin is capable of within the E. Expecting big things from the 2 way forward with a strong 200 foot game he should be able to lead Cologne Express in both offensive scoring and defensive prowess. Cologne is comprised of a lot of strong veteran forwards who have multiple seasons experience in the E he will be fighting for the no.1 Centre spot with Cologne Express Captain Keegan Gamble who really proved himself last season coming into the league fresh out of the M last season. The defensive side of the team is where the team falls short in both goal tending and defence so adding such a capable defensive forward should really help the team perform throughout the season and should be able to lock in some must need win games.
 
Sjin has been known for being both the golden boy and a drama queen in the locker room gaining favour with previous GMs and also trying to call the shots when things aren't working out for him as a player now playing under his own leadership it will be interesting to see  what he can do with his full potential unleashed and maximum ice time hopefully taking the league by storm and winning some personal trophies alongside hopefully taking home the Renaissance Cup which Cologne Express is currently trying to defend their title. Sjin should be able to offer a helping in hand in aiding them to back to back championships.
 
The league having moved from 8 teams to 6 will make it a lot more competitive making it significantly more difficult to dominant the league as it previous happened as Oslo did during their Dynasty. this will mean the standings will end very closely making it difficult for a wild card team to sneak in as it has previously happened, it will make all the teams stronger and much more difficult for one team to dominate each season so whilst the league condensing to 6 teams will make it easier for Cologne to qualify it will increase the randomness making it much more difficult for Sjin to dominant in the post season as he previously has with the San Diego Marlins, but time will tell what Sjin and the Cologne Express are capable of and how this season will look at the end for him as a player.

1. I'm guessing the question means wins, I would say London will definitely accomplish that really strong roster and even better management.
2. No chance, we've got aimkin between the pipes locking down wins for us!
3. It's definitely possible it's going to be close for sure but I would like to optimistically say we will.
4. I think the goals against will come down a bit and we will concede less the team is strong and I don't think they should be leaking as much as they are.
5. It will mostly like hover around this area I think the team can make a push for first or second in the conference for sure though.
6. Most likely Molly the Cat a great forward on the team and always puts up the points I could also see Triller having a push for leading the teams but it will all really depend

This is so unique a completely different style of graphics I'm use to seeing, but it's to be expected with Trillers awesome 3D rendering skills. He's really hit this one out of the park it's just so cool, the actual model looks like its straight out of a video game and the logo just looks so perfect, this is truly a work of art! I really like the way how the whole background is just a solid colour with the logo in a lighter hue to give it emphasis it's a really cool concept and something I'm definitely going to try in my future graphics (not the 3d rendering i'm not that skilled unfortunately)
 
10/10 smashed it Triller!

Choo Choo!

I would be very happy to GM a team in this years JST! If I am chosen, I would like to recommend Sijn as my AGM.
