S78 Trivia Week 1 Answers

1. Of the four franchises which may or may not be favourites for resurrection in the VHLE, which one spent the most seasons in the VHL/VHLM before?

Although Vasteras' combined existence in the VHL (S1-S15 and S21-S40) would put them in the lead with 35 seasons (not to mention the 30+ seasons in the VHLM by the J20), it is the Cologne Express who take the crown with 27 seasons in the league to date - founded in S31, contracted in S57. Bratislava, Cologne's unofficial affiliate (although they never needed to be outside of the sim), survived 4 seasons fewer, while the Vikings went with the Express, but came into the league 10 seasons later.

 

There's a variety of places you could have figured this out from but the best is probably this lovely visualiser: https://vhlforum.com/topic/97303-franchise-history-visualiser-vhl-vhlm/

 

 

2. Who is the European-born player with the most points in VHL history?

Despite having the most Canadian-sounding name, it is Scotty Campbell who is not just the VHL's best ever, but also the best European. Mike Szatkowski, in 2nd place, was actually American, as are Kevin Brooks and Thomas O'Malley in #3 and #4. The two most European sounding names available, Stolzschweiger and Rybak, are in fact German and Ukrainian, respectively, but only 5th and 8th in all-time scoring. The top scoring Canadian is actually only 7th - that's Unassisted.

 

Campbell meanwhile was born in Davos where he would eventually move the Avangard Havoc after becoming their GM.
