DMaximus 1,046 Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 14th Annual Unofficial VHL Regular Season Awards – S79 Another exciting regular season has come to a close. That means we can dole out some regular season awards! Welcome everyone to the 14th Annual Unofficial VHL Regular Season Awards honoring the highs and lows of S79! Thank you to everyone that reads this. These awards have been created by me. There is no voting process and they are not officially recognized by the VHL Board of Governors. I wrote descriptions for most of these award names in the original award post. For each award, I list the winners from the last 5 seasons. If you want to check out the award winners from every season, use this link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1sAZtX3bxVpPTIsKe1rSRVOenH1-iyWzbQEdR9ZvYOdU/edit?usp=sharing I also document the “all-time” record for each category. Of course, by that I mean all-time for the existence of these awards, not all-time, all-time. Clear? Ok, good. Let’s get things underway! The Pylon Award (worst +/- rating) – Jared Carter @jaredc7 Toronto and Helsinki both battled to win this one, claiming the bottom 13 spots in the league for plus/minus. Spots 2-13 were relatively close, only separated by 8 points. Carter must have really wanted this award because they were 10 points worse than 2nd place. They win it with a -49 on the season. All-time record: S73 - Balentine Kidd - -74 Last 5 Pylon Award Winners: Season Player + / - S79 Jared Carter -49 S78 David Tavau -40 S77 Ove Dyrdahl -43 S76 Tyler Walker -35 S75 Pistil Stamen -35 The Gandhi Award (least penalty minutes, min 1,000 minutes played) – The Terrible Trivium @der meister The Terrible Trivium keeps the award in London for the third consecutive season, reclaiming the award they won in S77. They were 8 minutes short of claiming the all-time record. They had 0 PIM in 2,084 minutes played. All-time record: S67 - Diljodh Starload - 0 PIM, 2091 Minutes Played Last 5 Gandhi Award Winners: Season Player PIM Minutes Played S79 The Terrible Trivium 0 2084 S78 Sven Reikkinen 0 2007 S77 The Terrible Trivium 4 2136 S76 John Brewitt 0 1320 S75 Jonas Stormsson 4 1700 The Major2 Award (most major penalties) - Henry Tucker @NSG88 Someone must have upset Tucker in the offseason because they went from sub 100PIM seasons to leading the league in PIM this season. Their league leading 11 majors helped their total PIM and win them this award. All-time Record: S77 – Randy Marsh - 14 Majors Previous Major2 Award Winners: Season Player Major Penalties S79 Henry Tucker 11 S78 Bob Tristan 11 S77 Randy Marsh 14 S76 Riley Knight Gee 9 S75 Gary Tarantino 12 The Timex Award (received most hits) – Dakota Lamb @dlamb Lamb watched teammate Aloe Dear win this award last season and thought to themselves, buy it must be fun to get hit a lot. I’m going to try that out. Not sure how fun it was, but they win the award by getting hit 310 times this season. All-time Record: S69 - John Madden - 357 Hits taken Last 5 Timex Award Winners: Season Player Hits Taken S79 Dakota Lamb 310 S78 Aloe Dear 312 S77 Taro Tsujimoto 307 S76 Thomas Landry II 329 S75 John Merrick 311 The John Wayne Award (most shots on goal) - Gunnar Odinsson @BOOM Well there’s record setting seasons and then there’s record shattering seasons. This was a record shattering season for Odinsson. The beat Lexi Glass’s all-time record from S77 by 44 shots! Their 614 shots were over 200 more shots than the S71 winning total (Scott Greene 402 shots)! All-time record: S79 – Gunnar Odinsson - 614 Shots on goal Last 5 John Wayne Award Winners: Season Player Shots on Goal S79 Gunnar Odinsson 614 S78 Muffbeav 531 S77 Lexi Glass 570 S76 Andrew Su 483 S75 Mikko Lahtinen 510 The “Hit the Broadside of the Barn” Award (most own shots blocked) - Groovy Dood @bigAL It takes a special talent to win one of the shots awards in a season when the all-time shot record is shattered by someone else. I have no idea how Dood did it, but they have one more shot blocked than Gunnar Odinsson, a total of 165. That ties the all-time record! All-time record: S76 - Chris Hylands and S79 – Groovy Dood - 165 Own shots blocked Last 5 HtBotB Award Winners: Season Player Own Shots Blocked S79 Groovy Dood 165 S78 Aloe Dear 161 S77 Patrik Laine 150 S76 Chris Hylands 165 S75 Mikko Lahtinen 146 The “Can’t Hit the Broadside of the Barn” Award (most own shots missed) – Gunnar Odinsson @BOOM I don’t think it’s much of a surprise that Odinsson won this award after smashing the shots on goal award. What is surprising is they barely set the all-time record, recording just 4 more shots missed than the previous record set by Brock Louth in S74 (429). All-time record: S79 – Gunnar Odinsson - 433 Shots missed Last 5 CHtBotB Award Winners: Season Player Shots Missed S79 Gunnar Odinsson 433 S78 Aloe Dear 407 S77 Lexi Glass 424 S76 Andrew Su 373 S75 Mikko Lahtinen 375 The New Shin Pads Award (most blocked shots) – Han Jae Kuk @Dtayl Han Jae Kuk ran away with this one, beating the next closest player by 26 shots blocked. They also set the all-time mark for the third consecutive season. A great way to end their career. Congratulations! All-time record: S79 – Han Jae Kuk - 242 Shots blocked Last 5 New Shin Pads Award Winners: Season Player Shots Blocked S79 Han Jae Kuk 242 S78 Robin Galante Nilsson 229 S77 Viktor Alexei Kamenov 223 S76 Hulk Hogan Jr 188 S75 Fernando Jokinen 200 The Tired Legs Award (most minutes played) - Han Jae Kuk @Dtayl Just like last season the Shin Pads winner also win the Tired Legs award. Toronto occupied the top 3 spots for minutes played. Han takes home the award with 2,343 minutes played All-time record: S73 - Alex Bridges - 2401 Minutes played Last 5 Tired Legs Award Winners: Season Player Minutes Played S79 Han Jae Kuk 2343 S78 Robin Galante Nilsson 2398 S77 Andrew Su 2248 S76 Chicken Wing 2213 S75 Alek Andreshnikov 2303 The Snap! Award (most power play minutes) - Muffbeav @.sniffuM I wonder how much diving Muffbeav did to get so much time on the powerplay? Our first repeat winner since Juilius Freeman @rjfryman in S70 and S71. Muffbeav set the all-time mark with 454 minutes on the powerplay, breaking the 12 season old mark set by Beau Louth @Beaviss All-time record: S79 - Muffbeav - 454 power play minutes Last 5 Snap! Award Winners: Season Player PP Minutes S79 Muffbeav 454 S78 Muffbeav 412 S77 Onde Sandstrom 422 S76 Alex Letang 351 S75 Micah Adrienne 414 The 1 vs. 100 Award (most time on penalty kill) - Gustislav Nasherov @Vat This must have been a season filled with penalties. We had the all-time mark set for powerplay minutes. We also have the penalty kill minutes all-time record set. Nasherov spent 447 minutes on the ice killing penalties. All-time record: S79 - Gustislav Nasherov - 447 penalty kill minutes Last 5 1 vs. 100 Award Winners: Season Player PK Minutes S79 Gustislav Nasherov 447 S78 Kevin Wu 368 S77 Viktor Alexei Kamenov 418 S76 Mikeal Keef 359 S75 Dakota Lamb 369 The Sean Archer Award (highest face-off win %, min 1,000 faceoffs) – Pistil Stamen @DMaximus Woo hoo! I get an award. Stamen won 59.00% of their faceoffs, just beating out last year’s winner Aloe Dear @Renomitsu, who won a tantalizingly close 58.93% of their faceoffs. All-time record: S74 - Brock Louth - 63.72% face-offs won Last 5 Sean Archer Award Winners: Season Player Face Off Pct S79 Pistil Stamen 59.00% S78 Aloe Dear 57.89% S77 Christian Mingle 58.42% S76 Benny Graves 59.91% S75 Benny Graves 60.14% The Castor Troy Award (lowest face-off win %, min 1,000 faceoffs) - Gustislav Nasherov @Vat Maybe because they spent so much time killing penalties, they were sapped of the strength required to win faceoffs. Whatever the reason, Gustislav set the all-time low mark for faceoffs won with 29.60% All-time record: S79 - Gustislav Nasherov – 29.60% face-offs won. Last 5 Castor Troy Award Winners: Season Player Face Off Pct S79 Gustislav Nasherov 29.60% S78 Luc Tessier 42.80% S77 Pietro Angellini 44.71% S76 Nero Endrizzi 43.87% S75 Jeff Odinson 32.74% The Triple Deke Award (most penalty shot goals) - Nathan Perry @tinafrombobsburgers There was a three-way tie between Cabe McJake @Red, Taro Tsujimoto @GustavMattias, and Nathan Perry. Perry won with 5 goals on the least number of attempts, 6. All-time record: S67 - Veran Dragomir and S78 - Thomas Landry II - 8 penalty shot goals Last 5 Triple Deke Award Winners: Season Player Penalty Shot Goals S79 Nathan Perry 5 S78 Thomas Landry II 8 S77 Arthur Dayne 5 S76 Kris Rice 5 S75 Ola Vikingstad 6 The Rocky Award (most fights won) – Calvin Hobbes @2hawk Hobbes burst onto the fight scene with an impressive 5 fights won, going 5-2-2 in their fights this season. More surprising was that the previous back-to-back winner Riley Knight Gee @KnightRiley didn’t even get into a fight this season! All-time record: S77,S78 - Riley Knight Gee, S74 - Kristopher McDagg, and S67 ACL TEAR - 6 fights won Last 5 Rocky Award Winners: Season Player Fights Won S79 Calvin Hobbes 5 S78 Riley Knight Gee 6 S77 Riley Knight Gee 6 S76 Cabe McJake and Randy Marsh 3 S75 Vin Calia 4 The Glass Joe Award (most fights lost) – Rusty Knale @HatrickRoy Rusty could use some oil to loosen up a little. They won the award outright by losing 3 fights this season. All-time record: S74 - Lee Xin and S69 Rusty Shackleford - 5 fights lost Last 5 Glass Joe Award Winners: Season Player Fights Lost S79 Rusty Knale 3 S78 Matt thunder 3 S77 Randy Marsh 4 S76 Riley Knight Gee 4 S75 Jared Willis 3 The Stars Award (most stars won) – Gunnar Odinsson @BOOM This one should come as no surprise. Odinsson dominated all season. That includes winning the most stars in the league with 32 total stars. They also led the league with 14 1st stars. Special recognition to Zamboni Driver @Tape-to-Tape and Sirkants Klamasteris @hedgehog337 for leading the goalies with 15 total stars. All-time record: S76 - Mikko Lahtinen – 34 total stars Last 5 Stars Award Winners: Season Player Total Stars S79 Gunnar Odinsson 32 S78 Robin Winter 26 S77 Jim Bob 26 S76 Mikko Lahtinen 34 S75 Mikko Lahtinen 24 The “Always a Bridesmaid” Award (most stars without winning 1st star) – Tim Waters @Siddhus Water won 11 stars this season without winning a single 1st star. An impressive feat for the retiring Predator. All-time record: S72 - Lewis Dawson and S67 Dan Baillie - 13 stars Last 5 Bridesmaid Award Winners: Season Player Stars S79 Tim Waters 11 S78 Jim Bob 8 S77 Mikeal Keef 9 S76 Dan Baillie Jr 12 S75 Jacob Perry 7 The Biggest Backpack Award (player with the largest difference in points from the rest of their team) - Red Lite @Tate Red Lite showed how dominant they are by setting a new all-time record by scoring 40 points more than their closest teammate. All-time record: S79 – Red Lite - 40 points more than nearest teammate Last 5 Backpack Award Winners: Season Player Point Difference from nearest teammate S79 Red Lite 40 S78 Taro Tsujimoto 22 S77 Groovy Dood 26 S76 Chris Hylands 36 S75 Dagmar Havlova 22 The Anniversary Award (rank in total points matches season number) - Tim Waters @Siddhus This is season 79, so the award goes to the player in 79th place in total points.

I always like it when it’s an odd number because you know there was a major penalty in there. Something serious must have gone down. All-time record: S76 - Doug Dimmadome - 29 PIM Previous Jason Voorhees Award Winners: Season Player PIM S79 Jean Pierre Camus 23 S78 Michael Olson 15 S77 Rara Rasputin 10 S76 Doug Dimmadome 29 S75 Jaxx Hextall 12 The Poke Check Award (highest % of penalty shots stopped, min 10 penalty shots against) - Zamboni Driver @Tape-to-Tape This will always be a tough award to win with the legendary, three-time winner, Grekkark Gyrfalcon @Sharkstrong in the game. But Driver had a fantastic season stopping 85.7% of the penalty shots they faced and took home the award. All-time record: S75 - Grekkark Gyrfalcon – 88.9% penalty shots stopped. Previous Poke Check Award Winners: Season Player Penalty Shots Stopped S79 Zamboni Driver 85.7% S78 Grekkark Gyrfalcon 78.3% S77 Jacob Carson 80.0% S76 Grekkark Gyrfalcon 79.5% S75 Grekkark Gyrfalcon 88.9% That wraps it up for this season!

Last 5 Anniversary Award Winners: Season Player Points S79 Tim Waters 64 S78 Erik Killinger 63 S77 Vin Calia 62 S76 Jonas Stormsson 59 S75 Seabass Perrin 62 The Eggshell Award (goalie with most overtime losses) - Kevin Malone @WentzKneeFan036 A career best season for Malone except for their career worst 8 overtime losses. All-time record: S78 – Calvin Harvey, S75 - Doug Dimmadome, and S71 Jaxx Hextall - 11 OT games lost Previous Eggshell Award Winners: Season Player Overtime Games Lost S79 Kevin Malone 8 S78 Calvin Harvey 11 S77 Thadius Sales 7 S76 Doug Dimmadome 9 S75 Doug Dimmadome 11 The Jason Voorhees Award (most PIM by a Goalie) - Jean Pierre Camus @solas A strong showing from Camus getting 23 penalty minutes this season. I always like it when it’s an odd number because you know there was a major penalty in there. Something serious must have gone down. All-time record: S76 - Doug Dimmadome - 29 PIM Previous Jason Voorhees Award Winners: Season Player PIM S79 Jean Pierre Camus 23 S78 Michael Olson 15 S77 Rara Rasputin 10 S76 Doug Dimmadome 29 S75 Jaxx Hextall 12 The Poke Check Award (highest % of penalty shots stopped, min 10 penalty shots against) - Zamboni Driver @Tape-to-Tape This will always be a tough award to win with the legendary, three-time winner, Grekkark Gyrfalcon @Sharkstrong in the game. But Driver had a fantastic season stopping 85.7% of the penalty shots they faced and took home the award. All-time record: S75 - Grekkark Gyrfalcon – 88.9% penalty shots stopped.
