  6. New York, New York. Contraction has been an interesting process so far. We have seen it put teams over the top in terms of playoff contention, it has replenished the cupboards of some barren franchises. For the hockey franchise in New York City, it has accelerated their rebuild ahead a year or two. During contraction they only added Chase Keller, we say only, but he is a generational talent who may already be the best player in the league. However the affects of contraction led to two other big opportunities. The first came in the draft when Kriztof Mueller who was set to join the Cologne Express joined the draft, and immediately became a top prospect our of the class. In addition to that, former Calgary Wrangler who was subject to contraction became a free agent - that man was Luca Volkov who signed with the New York Americans on a one year deal. The Americans had a surprising and entertaining season, as they see all of last year's roster return. Led by their captain Case Jones who brought home 3 awards this off-season (Rookie of the Year, Defenseman of the Year, and Top Leader), they also see their veteran superstar Takashi Fujimoto return. Sergei Komarov who had an unbelievable season could be the unsung hero of S58, as he returns shifting to wing to play with Keller and Fujimoto. Launchpad McQuack returns as the second-line center after being an underrated utility players - he will fit more comfortably in the center role as he is set to guide the rookies on the second line. Ike Arkander returns in net, but will have to fight for his starts after the Americans brought in veteran all-star goalie Rhett DeGrath from the Davos Dynamo. Three other new faces on the roster include Aksel McKnight who at one point was considered the top draft prospect, who is quick and has high hockey IQ, and is projected to be an elite playmaker on the wing. The Americans are also starting Vaclav Hrdina, who recently reclaimed his hockey career, and is looking to have the storybook ending - after being written off as a VHL consideration, he adds some interesting forward depth to this group. They also added Alexander Thrower to their defense corpse, who was alright last year, only led all defensemen in points in the entire league. One of the more interesting additions, is the one S57 draftee who went back to the minors , Colton Rayne. He had a great season in the minors, and seems to be ready for the big league. He is slated to start on the second pairing, but I wouldn't be surprised if we saw him get significant PP time, as he gets more comfortable in the league. The Americans could be an interesting team to watch in S58. The general consensus is that they aren't quite ready to compete for a cup, but with the additions and growth of their players, GM Vince Wong believes they could be the team to beat this season.

    S57 VHL Awards

    Congrats to the winners! Jones had a hell of a season. As for the voting, that’s pretty embarrassing. It’s one thing for someone to make a mockery of the voting, pretty ridiculous that those votes were posted to the public. Like really, DeShaun Watson.. We need an editor for commish posts tbh
  13. what's the rule? 72 hrs?
  14. This was gonna be a Keller sig, but I was panicing for time so I could get DeGrath's update in time for the final.. I wanna take my time with yours expensive seafood dinner type
  15. I expected more green
  16. I googled “hockey sim league” and I found VHL on a recruitment post @UZI™ made on the OOTP forums.. before that I was playing FHM and Websimhockey.. just didn’t scratch the itch.
  17. I don’t think he actually wanted Thower, I just think he’s tryin to prove something. #swingindick
  18. I posted S58 - league min.. how is that not a claim? Explain to me where the rule book states how that is an invalid claim. The rule book doesn’t say it needs to be claimed as if it were waivers. Pretty sure my original post is a valid claim, just because I didn’t use that terminology. I offered the one year league min as per the rules
  19. Haha ok. My claim is clearly uncontested for 12hrs.. Good luck with that.
  20. About an hour late
  21. I guess the counter argument is was it a valid offer that was uncontested for 24 hrs. also, FYI here’s the revamped inactive rule changes
  22. Kinda interesting with the recent rule change. I think it’s pretty clear he’s considered an inactive. However, it’ll be interesting if they judge Bushito’s two Year offer valid. Technically on a matched offer he goes to the team with reverse standings priority after 24hrs of day one FA. However, because Bushito adjusted his offer, it would seem as though Helsinki’s offer stood uncontested for 24hs.. Have fun, Commishes!
