  9. A Brief History of @dylanjj37's VHLMers Part 2 We're back with episode two of Dylan's VHLMers! In case you missed part 1, I'll attach a link here, so you can read it first. To stretch this out even more (basically to make Dylan wait for the Juan specific article) I will only be talking about Bryn Yrwy. Next week, or maybe the week after, I will be writing the greatest media spot of all time featuring Juan Ceson. However, today is about Bryn, and as such, let's begin. Bryn Yrwy Bryn was created at the start of season 76. He was a center and signed with the great team known as the Mexico City Kings. He played a full 72 games that season wracking up a monster 11 assists and 4 goals scored. His 39 hits left a lot to be desired for a center of his caliber, but he would improve upon those in the following seasons. Luckily for Bryn, Mexico City had made the playoffs that year. Throughout the 15 games they played that year in the playoffs, Bryn was only able to get one assist and two hits. Bryn was hard carried to a Founder's Cup his first year. However, a cup is a cup, so Bryn will gladly add that to his list of accomplishments. Mexico's agm @rory had this to say about Bryn, "Bryn was truly a glue guy in the locker room. Hylands built an amazing mix of skill players and physical specimens on the ice, but without Yrwy keeping the team together in the locker room after a tough period, we wouldn't have gotten as far as we did. It was an honour being able to witness, up close, such a player in the peak of their career". Coincidentally enough, Rory would end up taking the reigns as GM of Halifax next season where Bryn ended up being drafted. Bryn ended up being drafted 46th overall in S77. Until he retired, Bryn called Halifax home. In season 77 Bryn definitely improved his stats and managed to put up 16 goals and 17 assists. Not bad for a second year VHLM player. He also improved his hits to 62 this season. In the post-season, Halifax made a great run at the cup, but ultimately fell short. Bryn was a decent participant that year in the post-season with 2 goals and 2 assists in 12 games played. S78 was really a nothing year for Bryn. His stats weren't bad or anything, he just was very forgettable. Improving over the previous season, Bryn put up 29 goals and 38 assists. He fell short in the hits department regressing to a mere 36 hits. He also did nothing of note in the post-season (not that Halifax got very far). He put up only 1 goal and 1 assist in 7 games played. As you'll learn soon, this was only the calm before the storm with Bryn. In his upcoming two seasons, Bryn was about to turn the VHLM upside down with his skillset. Everything changed when Rory stepped down as GM of Halifax. @samx was about to take the reigns and take Bryn's skill to heights one could only imagine (no offence to rory's GM skills). It was rumored that before S79 started, Sam had committed acts of witchcraft in Boston that would allow Bryn to blossom into the player he is. After a small child was sacrificed, Bryn and Sam returned to Halifax. This year was the start of something big. Once again, Bryn played all 72 games, however this year his stats were unbelievable. He put up 62 goals and 76 assists. That is almost 2 points per game! He took 459 shots compared to previous years of 164 and 146. He also turned into a big hitting center with 132 hits that year. Bryn also took home the highly coveted Alexander Chershenko Trophy. Unfortunately, Halifax had the worst playoff appearance yet. Halifax lost in 5 short games in the first round. Bryn did his best to get the wins for his team, but one player can only do so much. He put up 3 goals and 6 assists in those 5 games played. However, winning a trophy off an unbelievable year was all Bryn needed at heart. Season 80 marked the final season of Bryn's career, but he wanted to make sure he made it count. He put up a whopping 76 goals and 91 assists for a total of 167 points. It was one of the best performances a player has ever had in the VHLM. He even improved his hitting further, and finished the year with 140 hits. Unfortunately, once again Halifax fell short in the playoffs. A tough way to end his career...or was it? After the season concluded Bryn learned he had won a back to back Alexander Chershenko Trophy, but even better, he won two others. Bryn won both the Mitch Higgins Trophy and the Ethan Osborne Trophy. A stunning performance to end his career Bryn retired happily. Talking with GM samx she had this to say about Bryn, "Bryn was an amazing asset to the team both on and off the ice. He brought his A game on the ice. Off the ice he was active and fun to be around". We also caught up with Dylanjj37 and asked his thoughts on his magnificent player. He responded, "Bryn Yrwy was amazing during his entire career but his final two seasons just blew everything else out of the water. He was absolutely fantastic. Nothing can compare or even come close to the great feats that Bryn Yrwy achieved". Well, that wraps up our article on Bryn Yrwy. That means we only have one player remaining to talk about. The legendary Juan Ceson who remains active in the VHLM to this day. Part 3 will be an in depth analysis of Juan's career featuring a never before seen interview with Dylanjj37 himself! I look forward to seeing you all in our conclusion of Dylan's players. 1005 words.
  10. 1. It feels amazing. Honestly better than sex. Its like if you could bottle up all the serotonin you've ever had and released it all at once 2. I always think there's room for improvement with my player, but I definitely helped the squad out with 25 points in the post-season 3. I never changed underwear the whole series. Not once. 4. I have no idea lmao 5. My player is, but other than that he'd be playing golf in Alabama 6. Yes, because I am a VHLE GM after all, but I completely ignored the VHL finals tbh 7. blue
  11. I consider my violation to be fake news
  12. Thanks for spending two seasons with us! You were great to have in the LR and definitely don't be a stranger! Go kill it for Malmo
  13. 1. Good, but going down 1-3 in our series is concerning me a bit. We got this though. 2. Amazing, I won the cup on my very first player way back when, so I'd love to get another cup to my name 3. That's a tough one. I think either Aky or Swift should be. Swift's intangibles are amazing and he still has managed to put up 11 points. Aky has been super clutch, and if we win he always seems to have 2-3 points in the game. @Ben_Reformed and @lilchrist 4. We're definitely the underdog, but it also seems like we've been touted as that the whole playoffs, so we ball 5. Justin Williams, like wtf are his stats 6. I do tbh. I know I could be scoring more, but my shots are just not finding the back of the net
  14. @Lemorse7 saw me come into the league and knew he had to step down because I was too good
  15. This is the best VHL.com article I have ever read and it should probably go into the VHLM hall of fame for articles.
  16. A Brief History of @dylanjj37's VHLMers Part 1 I'm sure most of you know Dylan by now, he's definitely a character. Even if you don't know him, you've probably heard of his players. He has an interesting habit of creating career VHLMers. He's been doing this since S67 and we still don't know why. This week I thought we'd break down these players and talk about their woes, successes, and more! Without further ado, I bring to you: Alex Armstrong Alex was created during the 67th season of the VHLM. He was a defenseman and played for a total of four teams in his career. When he was first created he joined the Halifax 21st. He had a pretty brutal stat line of 23GP, 0G, 4A, and a meager 12 shots that season. Luckily, he was going to drastically improve the next season. Alex was drafted 61st overall in the S68 draft. He packed his bags and hopped on the first train to Mexico City. Alex played every game this season and racked up a solid 45 points. His intangibles were the best that they'd be in his career logging 153 hits and 159 shots blocked. For a defensive defenseman, he looked to be a great late round pick by Mexico. At the start of S69 (heh) Alex got a call that he had been traded to the Yukon Rush (rest in peace). Here he thought he could have an even better season. Well, he was wrong. The Rush were abysmal that year, barely squeaking into the playoffs. Once again, Alex's team was swept in the first round of the playoffs. Alex ended up scoring 58 points that year, but his intangibles had regressed to 106 hits and 142 shots blocked. After a tough year, it was rumored that Alex demanded a trade, and a trade he got. In the offseason Alex learned that he had been traded to the Minnesota Storm (also RIP). The storm were the top team in the VHLM that year, and helped young Alex get his first award. The Founders Cup! Alex was on point per game pace the entire season and ended up with 79 points to his name. While he was improving his offensive capabilities, he regressed even further with his intangibles, having only 79 hits and 95 shots blocked. Once again, it was rumored Alex wanted to go to a different contender and ended up being traded back to Yukon in the offseason. This was truly Alex's breakout year. In S71, Alex dominated all defensemen with 127 points. For his efforts, he was awarded the Ryan Sullivan Trophy. His intangibles also improved this season, but were still far behind that of S68. Although the Rush were a top team in the VHLM that season, and Alex put up Connor McDavid numbers, they ended up falling short in the playoffs. At this point our story of Alex Armstrong must end. He retired that offseason. He had a great career! Rick Osman Rick was immediately created after Alex had retired. In fact, they briefly played together in S71, where Rick played 18 games. Another defenseman, Rick originally signed with Mississauga and put up a whopping 9 points that year. Rick was in the season 72 draft and was taken 30th overall by Halifax. Rick would stay with Halifax for much of his career. In his draft year, S72, Rick had the best overall stats of his career. He put up 36 points with intangibles that could make a coach cry. He ended the season with 163 hits and 177 shots blocked. Unfortunately, it was all downhill from there. In S73, his stats had begun regressing HARD. I know +/- is a team stat, but Rick ended the season with a -63. To make matters worse, he regressed in his intangibles, only putting up 134 hits and 120 shots blocked. Weirdly enough, Rick didn't see much of an increase at all in offensive capability. He ended with only 37 points. This season was a tough year for Rick, but it would only get worse moving forward. Starting the final year of his rookie contract, it appears Rick was hit with a bus, because that's the only explanation for his play in S74. While Rick did have a career high of 65 points this season, he didn't really do any defending. I checked with a couple coaches and they all agreed that you need to be able to play defense if you're a defenseman. Rick ended the season with a meager 55 hits, and 73 shots blocked. He had cut his intangibles by 3/4 from his draft season. Despite Rick doing his best to drag the team down, Halifax ended up being the top team in the VHLM that year. In partial thanks to Rick, Halifax brutally lost in 7 games against Miami in the first round. They pulled what we call a Boston Bruins. After such a brutal playoff run by the best team in the league, Rick decided it would be best to re-sign with Halifax. However, in the plot twist of his career, Rick was dealt to Saskatoon at the trade deadline. This season was another sad year for Rick. He regressed heavily in points and did not improve much with his intangibles. He ended the season with 52 points, 76 hits, and 98 shots blocked. Saskatoon did make the playoffs that year, but once again lost in 7 games in the first round. After game 7 Rick was seen throwing his hockey gear in the trash and yelling "I quit". He retired that offseason. In six seasons, Rick was unable to win any awards, score many points, and he never made it past the first round of the playoffs. This is how the story of Rick "did nothing" Osman ends, not with a bang, but with a whimper. That's the end of part one! In a couple weeks I will be releasing part two and cover the two most recent players Dylan has created, one of which is still active. 1008 words
  17. @Advantage just had to recreate when I did and get 2 more tpe than me
  18. 1. Not too bad, managed to fracture my knee so thats not optimal, but hey 2. I'm stoked, and we're gonna win the cup! 3. I think by all metrics my player did very well, he just didn't do well enough for my high expectations 4. heh heh. Well, before we beat them I felt quite confident. I didn't expect to go 4-1 though, that was nice 5. I think we're as ready as we'll ever be. This team is rock solid and we even have depth which is rare for the M. 6. I'm gonna chug 13 biosteels and then have to come off the ice mid-game to pee
