Condition: If Samuel Wazinski plays less than 30 games in S93 with Halifax, the S94 HFX 5th becomes a S94 HFX 6th. @Mysterious_Fish to confirm

I had this marked to read when I had some time to do it right and it’s so beautifully written! I really want to see more pieces like this on the forum and I really hope more people see it and get inspired! I think Helsinki is getting a great one in Tyler Lawson and I’m low key jealous that you’ll get to play for Sam (not that I am anything less than excited to play in Riga btw). A complete steal of a pick for the Titans and I’m really happy for you! I can’t wait to see how far you go and what you can accomplish with this player, especially writing pieces like this!

Vencko AND Lovstrom on the same team is gonna be a vibe

Another Greenlander

This past season in the VHLM, my first season here on the forum, has come and gone in the blink of an eye. It still feels like yesterday that I signed a contract with Houston, not knowing what to expect, how I might fit in, if I could compete, and where I might be in a short season's time. Well, the season came and passed and what an experience it was. The longer I'm here, the more I realize how lucky I was to play on my hometown team in Houston, but also to have such great teammates and a GM who really cared. He'll probably cringe hearing me say it one more time, but he's the best-- @AJW deserves all the recognition he gets for the outstanding job he does daily to keep his players invested, engaged, and continuing to develop. I learned so much from him this past season and he'll continue to be someone I hold in high regard as I go further with my player and GM careers. Thank you AJ for everything! My teammates too! From the first couple of weeks of the season, we really hit it off and became a tight knit group that supported each other in the locker room and across the forum. Players like @Nathan_8 and @jake seemed to always be hanging out in the locker room, keeping the team going. With @Mutti, I was inspired by his creativity and humor on the forums to write some fun articles myself and the back and forth we started together was something that really kept me going throughout the season. I really hope to continue that with him even as we continue on to the VHLE and VHL, especially as we'll get to be teammates on Vasteras! I also really appreciated the steady locker room presence of @Crstats23, who became our captain by the end of the season. His stable leadership, experience, an consistency was a great example for us newer players who were still getting our feet under us. He's been awesome in multiple locker rooms I've been in and I hope to be teammates again someday. On top of that, I've had great chats with @Nyx who is going to go on to have a fantastic career with Helsinki, and @MicahC who also brought some enthusiasm and creativity to the team. @ctoland102 was also an awesome teammate who posted some great graphics and really brought the physicality on the ice last season. And @CowboyinAmerica, who went 1st overall in all 3 drafts over this past season, was an incredible addition that brought a lot to the team on the ice and in the locker room. Oh-- and who could forget Superbot! @Rhynex Entertainment was the best leader a team could ever ask for and really gave us a chance to go far this season. It's only a shame we couldn't get the Founder's Cup in his hands as it would have been supremely deserving! There are more awesome players and I'd hate to forget anyone-- the whole team was just such a great group and I'm really going to miss our chats and the fun we had in Houston. With that said, all good things must come to an end. We all knew when the season started that a lot of this team would be moving on and we'd all be divided between teams in the VHLE and VHL. Having experienced the excitement of the drafts, it was bitter sweet to see our team drafted all over the world. I'm very proud to have been a member of such a great Bulls team and as much as I would have wanted to return for another season in Houston, I'm ready to move on to the next level. I am honored to have been selected 2nd overall by Vasteras and I'm really excited to join this team as I think we'll have a real shot at winning the championship in the VHLE this next season! In the VHL draft, going 3rd overall was much higher than I ever expected at the start of the season and I'm thrilled to be going to Riga, which seems to be a young team on the rise. In a season's time, I hope to be able to join that lineup and become an impact player that can contribute to Continental Cup contention. I really appreciate both of these teams using their picks to select me and I hope I can live up to your hopes for my player! I'm also excited for the new prospects that come with being a VHLM GM. I hope to be half the GM that AJ was this past season and I really want to be able to offer new players the same kind of excitement, fun, and community that I had when I joined. That experience, I think, is what really keeps people here for the long term-- that genuine community and fun that we're all looking for while we enjoy sim hockey. We can all play a sim manager on our own, but doing it with other people, collaborating, and following each other's progress is what makes it worthwhile. Yeah, I know, this is probably more sentimental than most people would want to read, but I guess this is the time for it as the offseason winds down and the rollover to S93 is in full effect. I've got some fun ideas for articles next season and I hope to continue to collaborate with some of my former Houston teammates. The drama must go on! I wish all the best to the S92 Houston Bulls who are all finding new homes and I hope our paths cross again in the future. ──•~❉᯽❉~•── LucyXpher Claim for 03/17/24

Welcome!

Explain? What did you do? Lol

Welcome!

1. Are you ready for the season to start or want the offseason to go longer? I'm definitely getting the itch to get season 93 underway now. The offseason has been a fun experience so far though with the JST, the ProAm, and the World Juniors kicking off this week, not to mention the draft which was an exciting event. I am ready, though, to get back into the regular swing of daily games with the same team and continuing to grow toward the VHL. 2. Did you pay attention to the draft? If so, any surprises for you? I did! I watched it all the way up until the third round because I was super excited to see where all of my Houston teammates landed. I'm so proud to have been a part of such a great group, with 5 of us landing in the top 10! I would say that was probably the biggest surprise for me, but then again, we had and incredible group so it probably shouldn't be. The biggest surprise was probably Devote falling out of the first round. I was sure he was gonna go at least top 10, though I guess there were some good reasons why he slid so far. 3. Here's a good opportunity to welcome our new prospects @LucyXpher @horoscope and @fonziGG Yay! Welcome me lol. No, I'm super happy to be selected to this team and I'm really looking forward to continuing to grow as a player to really help Riga get the most out of their pick. The expectations I have for myself are very high and my goal is to be a big part of helping this team win a championship in the near future! I'm also really happy to be joining up with @horoscope and @fonziGG who both also had great players in this draft! 4. Do you expect Riga to be busy in free agency? I honestly couldn't really tell you. I've been pretty focused on the VHLM this past season, getting used to the league, and developing my player that I don't actually know too much about how Riga stacks up against the rest of the VHL, what they're looking for, and who's available. I'm still probably a season away from my first VHL game so I'm still just focused on what's in front of me right now. That said, now that I've signed my ELC with Riga, I'll definitely be paying more active attention to the team to see how things progress throughout the rest of this offseason and throughout S93. 5. Are you paying attention to the VHL's World Cup of Hockey? Again, my focus has kinda been on the VHLM level for now so I've been paying more attention to the JST and the upcoming WJC. The World Cup of Hockey is a great event though and I hope that I'll be selected to represent Team USA at some point down the road. 6. Now in the dog days of the NHL season, are you ready for playoffs to start? Well, as a Sharks fan, I'm ready to skip ahead to the draft so we can win the first overall pick and take Celebrini. The longer this season goes on, the more I die inside every day. Will Smith is awesome though, so I'm gonna keep watching BC in the meantime.

Dune 2 was incredible! Just had to reply to say that lol

Welcome back!

Welcome!

Great bio and welcome to the VHL! Looking forward to seeing how far you can go!

Wanna bet?

That's awesome! You're gonna do great things with the Hounds!

Helsinki taking the greatest leader of his generation, the Superbot himself, MinerVHLer would be such a @samx move! Leadership meta incoming!

Congrats! And I can totally relate being another one of these new GMs. It's a lot of new things to think about and navigate, but I'm sure you'll do great! I'm gonna go add a tag to my name in the VHLM GM discord so you know what team I'm on lol

1. favorite midnight snack? Blackberries. I honestly have no idea why but I never crave them as much as when I’m about to go to bed. Like, all day I don’t care about blackberries and then at 1am I’m like, “Yes plz!” Random, I know… 2. favorite player in the NHL? Joe Pavelski all time cause he is my favorite Sharks player, but the player I enjoy watching the most right now is Jack Hughes, when he’s been healthy 3. whats the best mark you have ever gotten in school I’ve a had a few A+s in college but letter grades don’t hit like percentages. In 11th grade I think I finished with a 97% in English class so that probably takes it. I don’t want to talk about chemistry class though, that grade was BAD. —- 1. Which sock do you put on first, right or left? 2. Are you left handed or right handed when signing autographs? And is that different than the way you shoot a hockey stick? 3. After hockey, what is the best sport or competitive hobby (aka golf/curling)?

Great scouting report! It was well written and informative. I look forward to seeing how far Novotny can go! Btw, do you make your own graphics, because they're awesome!
