Pifferfish

@CrookedAntyou know you want to join Lemorse and I in Philly, say #fearthereaper to join our squad.

@D-Notehi I'm AGM of the Philadelphia Reapers, we have just concluded the VHLM Draft and are now trying to grab waiver talent such as yourself. We love your activity and could really use a locker room leaders in Philadelphia. We just won the Championship and are hoping to repeat. I'm not sure how much ice time you will get but with your activity I think you'll easily work your way onto the Top 6 with Special Teams time to boot. Quote this and say #fearthereaper to get signed with us!

Im on mobile right now so the ability to seemlessly capitalize isn't a thing.... On PC I always capitalize

Brigade Press ConferencesWeek Ending 11/06 (Answer 6 for 2 TPE.)1. How do you feel about the 3rd place overall finish in the round robin portion of the JST despite being second in goal differential? 2. Round 1 is in the books for the Brigade as you beat the Warriors in 5 games. How does it feel to be heading to the semi finals? 3. How do you feel about your personal performance in round 1? 4. Are you concerned by the fact that all four wins were by a margin of 1? 5. Team Clue got the better of the Brigade in the round roubin season series. Do you expect different results with the season on the line? 6. Who is the biggest threat of the other team in your opinion? Thanks for your time.

Wtf

All I know is I'm number 7 of the AGMs and I literally haven't been one for half a season. That's a W.

@Shane Wardellhello... My name is pifferfish. I'm GM of the Brigade in the Junior Showcase and I'd love to help you get started up in the VHL. You can choose to join a JST team and you will play with them until the draft process begins. Then you will be selected and play with your new VHLM franchise. Until then the Brigade has a great Locker Room... Great Culture... And I'm always around to help my players if needed. If you like to join my team reply with #forwardmarch to enlist! If you choose another team, good luck on your journey.

The following is a press release from the PR team of up and coming star Elias Lampi. "To all the VHLM and VHLE GMs out there, this news is important in your decision on whether or not to select me in your upcoming drafts. I feel that I am on the cusp of being ready to take my talents to the next level, but I will elect to stay in the M for only 2 teams. If any other team selects me I will make the push to move into the E and begin my march toward the VHL. I want name the teams publicly so please feel free to reach out to my agent if you are on any staff considering selecting me." When asked what spurred the confidence in a potential move to the E during a follow up Q and A, Lampi had this to say: "My showing in the Junior Showcase against consistent and evenly match competition has shown I'm about at my peak at this level. I think playing at a level below your own can really stunt a players developmental progress so it's a tough call always. That why I've identified the two teams I most want to play with." Thanks for reading, folks. 210 words

This is fair. I've found myself wanting to personally gravitate to the graphic side just because i can look at an image and come to a conclusion much quicker than lets say reading a media spot for example... so i feel the timing aspect of things... I am also a notoriously slow reader..... like probaly half as fast as 90% of the VHL community

I think more so the point is like... for example myself... I'm totally unable to critique any graphic... but if i like it... i can at least drop a fire reaction... you as a human that i admittedly am assuming has eyes and can see... can formulate an opinion on graphics and engage with them. If you dont know how to intricately analyze a piece of media just dont do that... react how you feel is appropriate if you see it. It looks the same as other stuff you have seen but its still cool... give it a thumbs up... idk.. kind of rambling bc im tired and this isnt meant to be like an attack. i just feel like the mind set you have is like a form of self gate keeping that i feel is unfair and is taking yourself out of parts of this community that could have the member's youd like to interact with the most. TLDR dont avoid engaging with content bc you feel unqualified. simply seeing my media spots or .com's get any reactions is a huge dopamine boost.

Yeah you are a guy i want more involved... i feel like thats on me... i drafted Lajeunesse for the "i want a player from every team meme." not saying he is bad but i needed another defensive forward there to allow players like you, Swinsola, and Naps to play your games. kind of hamstringed myself with that decision but ehhh... its a good meme and im proud of the team regardless. Love Jason still... but yeah... i think thats a fair critique on myself as a talent evaluator.

hello @Joshua Yun!!! Sadly the VHLM season has concluded but do not panic... you have a chance to show the scouts in the VHLM what you got by joining a Junior Showcase roster. Mine only has bottom 6 ice time available unless you wanted to play Defense (just for this tournament) for more playing time. I'm trying to build a fun and player oriented culture and would love to add you to the mix. I hope to be able to help you get the hang of the VHL. Reply with #forwardmarch to enlist in the Brigade. If you choose another team, i wish you the best of luck still!

Hello, sadly the VHLM season is over but no worries! You can still show off your skills to the Minor League scouts in the Junior Showcase! I am GM of the Brigade and we currently have a couple spots open on the bottom 6 and on our Defense if you wanted to secure more PT. We have quite the nice Locker Room and I genuinely believe I am making this one of the most fun environments in the tournament. Reply with #forwardmarch to Enlist today. If you decide to go with another team i wish you the best.

@Chasers1691Welcome to the VHL. While you unfortunately are a bit late to join the VHLM we are in the midst of an off-season tournament where you can learn from myself and your teammates in the Brigade locker room (should you choose to join us). We are building an active and fun little group. If you'd like to enlist, quite this message and say #fowardmarch . From there I can send you the info for the JST Discord and get you started by answering any questions you may have.

Goaltending this playoffs felt pretty irrelevant, like 7 teams have a max guy. So at that point you need overwhelming offense or a solid defense. Halifax could have had 5 defensemen, which while most of them are sub 100 TPE that's still a significant upgrade to the bots. 2 IAs right before playoffs killed them and left Ash out to dry. Then they lost an important forward and one got a TPE ban.... It was a rough way to end the year. Overall, HFX underperformed but like we can see how that happened based on the timing of these issues.

I have two forward build ideas, one is much braver than a playmaker. But I'll save it until that time. Also, I think it's fair to suggest that the difference between the playmaker and sniper is just that a scorer will do what they do, good/bad team, good/bad lines good/bad coaching like all of that will hurt their realized value but they will do their things. The playmaker build kind of necessitates those extra parts being good. If they aren't tip top your player won't find that breakthrough.

TLDR I essentially agree with you on the fact that we dont need many play makers. But I disagree with the idea that they are useless. At VHL with 800 TPE, I'd probably go a different route but at 400 I can see it being incredibly good for it's purpose
