Pre (VHLM) Draft Thoughts

[PadStack 48]

The VHLM seems to be quite the swing league. Teams will load up on one draft class and just go nuts trying to put together the power team for 1 or 2 seasons worth of run.
I lived through this with my first incarnation. I was drafted by a draft heavy Ottawa team that was brutalized the season before. They were able to return a few pieces, and draft a bunch of others that were able to maintain at least a few seasons worth of earning, not sure if any of us moved on to great success in the VHL after, but we were a dominant team for a stretch of two seasons in the VHLM.
The first season we ran into another power team and lost out, the second season we barely lost a single game all season en route to the cup. It was an awesome experience, but it does suck a little knowing that this is basically my understanding on how teams are pushed to operate in order to have a chance at willing they have to be cycle teams.
