    Happy Birthday @Victor, you old bean!
  2. Thank you! The job market here is garbage! I was a Regional Manager for Recreation, Fitness, and Aquatics and now made the switch into Corporate Financial Analysis lmao. Whatever pays the bills, amirite!?
  3. Phil Knight, who is a veteran presence as a player agent in the vhl community, has recently come under Scrutiny due to his players’ lack of quality. Phil was inducted into the builder Hall of Fame way back in season long time ago. He had 3 Hall of Fame players to his name and had done wonders to the HOF section of the vhl among numerous other contributions to the community. Since then, he had failed to secure a player who would make the Hall of Fame and has been a pretty peripheral member. Strasmore is in his final season and will not even be mentioned in hall of fame talks (nor should he be). Since coming back full time to the vhl, P Knight has signed Marleau, Johnson, and Strasmore - all who have been mediocre. So has he peaked? He declined to comment but there are critics out there who think he should step back from the vhl. It’s doubtful that he would and with a new player committing to joining the agency at the trade deadline, it seems we will see a 10th player from the Builder. Details remain scarce but we definitely will want to see a more prolific player coming from under his wing that we have in this age of the vhl.
  4. good! Feeling pumped about the start of the season. It’s my last one so I have to make it count!! oh, I kind of answers this backwards. Feeling good! Spent the off-season really fighting off depreciation and I think I did a pretty good job of it! lots of changes indeed. The moves are pretty strategic, as it allows us to stay competitive while also setting us up for the future. didn’t look into it deeply. Definitely grabbed a couple of key pieces to carry the franchise forward though. career highs in some stat lines. Preferably assists and shots blocked pastrami on rye. Because delicious
  5. TBH, no, I don't think it's weird. In Europe - it wouldn't be even a question to consider. in NA, it's only weird if you make it weird. Otherwise, it's just fine. I'll join you if we are ever close enough!
  6. Starting a new job on Tuesday. It's in finance, so I'm brushing up on my excel skills. Made pancakes for my little dude and had the in-laws over. Was a chill day. Doing the laundry now and watching a show. Gonna ignore F1 and watch the re-run in 7 hours haha.

  8. Great Response from the community! Let's keep it going. Love hearing from you all!!
  9. 1) who you got for vhfl? 2) what do you think about Wills return? Is it a bluff?? 3) how’s Calgary looking for Strasmore’s final season? A dark horse to win it all?? 4) what would you consider the “golden era” of the vhl to be? 5) you’ll be creating your 10th player soon. How does that make you feel? 6) any surprises this off-season?
  10. So the off-season is chugging along and drawing inevitably closer to the start of the end of the road for Phil Strasmore. The old-timer defenseman will be entering his ninth and final season, a long career played out entirely in a Calgary Wranglers uniform. I think the only other player in VHL history to do this was Sterling Labatte, who also spent his career in Calgary and played nine seasons for reasons I have long since forgotten. Strasmore’s career has been predictable. He has consistently put up 55-65 points most seasons and gotten in the range of 225-275 and 150-170 hits and blocked shots, respectively. He managed to earn himself a Jake Wylde Trophy and, most proudly, helped the Wranglers to their own Continental Cup. He will never make it to the Hall of Fame but he will hold a few records for the franchise by this time next season. This means at the trade deadline, VHL Hall of Fame Builder, Phil Knight will be signing another player to the agency, marking it as his 10th! We still don’t have details other than the new player is named “Phil” and hails from Great Britain. Shocker. As for Strasmore, he is very excited for the start of the season. Statistically, he’s hoping to have a career year in points and hits. If he can finish his career strong, it will be a career that will be remembered fondly. Check out all the action on any streaming service that offers VHL games!
  11. Drinks find me. Rum tonight while I wait for the laundry to finish ahaha
  12. Grinding hard! Well played sir. Hope you get some time for some well deserved rest and relaxation
  13. I mean, I know it's 2024, not 2014... the league, technological culture, the world, has changed a lot... but one of my favourite things about this community was coming to this thread late-night and just browsing the ridiculous threads that this subforum had to offer. Is that a thing of the past? Has Discord rendered this forum semi-redundant and inadvertently segregated the VHL community? Regardless, hi all of you. Hope your weekend is going well and you're doing great. I'm here if you want to have some good vibes.

  15. put in the work but most importantly just be consistent. You don’t have to be the best, but if you show up with effort and a positive mindset all the time, you’ll see the results you want I’d sign Dixon because not only is he a terrific player @Ricer13 is a friend and family member here. convince all our roster players to put TPE into leadership. It works, people!! I usually read the VHL magazine (or these days the VSN) one just to familiarize myself with who’s in the draft, It’s the Leafs because they have ridiculous fans and they are the meme of the nhl because they cannot perform in the playoffs. seeing Mats Sundin’s Xmas Turkey, or him handing me the puck through the glass at an open practice.
