Alex 3,248 Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 @v.2 1 LOS ANGELES STARS Art Vandelay @Gustav G TPE: 361 SEASON GP W L OTL SV% GAA SO GA SA Season 83 - Regular Season 72 48 17 7 0.924 1.88 11 138 1822 Season 82 - Regular Season 4 4 0 0 0.875 2.94 0 12 96 Season 83 - Playoffs 6 2 1 3 0.938 2.04 0 13 208 Season 82 - Playoffs 1 0 0 0 0.87 5.32 0 3 23 Art Vandelay would fit in perfectly in Los Angeles, and would be an incredible franchise goalie for the team. The backbone of a resurgent Miami Maureders team last season, Vandelay looks to make the jump straight to the VHL. With Los Angeles already having several young forwards, this pick would allow for Los Angeles to build from the net out and guarantee them the future top goalie in the VHL. 2 HC DAVOS DYNAMO Napoleon Dynamite @thadthrasher C TPE: 382 SEASON GP G A PTS (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB Season 83 - Regular Season 72 18 27 45 7 243 34 96 15 Season 82 - Regular Season 14 1 1 2 -2 24 4 7 1 Season 83 - Playoffs 12 4 6 10 0 52 6 17 4 Season 82 - Playoffs 19 6 5 11 0 36 10 5 10 For Davos, picking Napoleon Dynamite is a no-brainer. Dynamite would be the ideal 2nd line center this season and a vital part of what has quickly become one of the top teams in the European Conference. Dynamite is coming off of a solid season for Bratislava which saw them capture their second consecutive league championship in which they scored 4 goals and 6 assists for 10 points in 12 games. Additionally, Dynamite is a winner having not lost a single playoff series in their career, which is exactly what Davos needs. 3 LOS ANGELES STARS Callum Murray @Berocka D TPE: 385 SEASON GP G A PTS (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB Season 83 - Regular Season 72 12 23 35 0 146 26 81 84 Season 82 - Regular Season 12 0 3 3 1 17 14 10 15 Season 83 - Playoffs 4 1 2 3 0 9 4 5 13 Season 82 - Playoffs 11 2 3 5 9 18 0 1 25 Similarly to Vandelay, Murray fills a massive gap in Los Angeles's roster as their only roster defensemen right now is Barron Kruulenstien. Murray would step right in to LA's roster and provide some much needed support. LAst season Murray was a staple on Cologne's blueline as he would average around half a point per game, however in the playoffs Murray would hit another level, recording 3 points in 4 games and maintaining a 0 +/- which is very impressive as his team got swept. 4 HELSINKI TITANS Dogwood Maple @dogwoodmaple C TPE: 324 SEASON GP G A PTS (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB Season 83 - Regular Season 72 29 53 82 60 351 36 110 14 Season 82 - Regular Season 10 4 0 4 4 11 0 9 2 Season 83 - Playoffs 16 8 8 16 1 58 12 25 2 Season 82 - Playoffs 6 1 0 1 -4 6 2 5 2 The 7th best team in the VHL last season, Helsinki will be looking for their future #1 center, already having a complete roster for this season picking Dogwood Maple at 4th overall makes perfect sense for them and will give them either a inexpensive player to bring onto their roster this season, or a very good center that would be joining the team in S85. Although given their cap situation I would not be surprised if we see Maple in a Helsinki uniform this season. 5 NEW YORK AMERICANS Pierre Emile Bouchard @Gaikoku-hito D TPE: 375 SEASON GP G A PTS (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB Season 83 - Regular Season 72 21 51 72 0 240 54 73 151 Season 82 - Regular Season 14 0 8 8 1 18 4 13 14 Season 82 - Playoffs 19 7 11 18 0 46 12 35 24 Now having a top forward and a a goalie in Vasile Lamb and Augustus Kennedy, Pierre Emile Bouchard will serve as New York's future franchise defensemen. This coming season Bouchard will get all the opportunities possible alongside Jerome Reinhart. Additionally, Bouchard has proved that they are ready for the VHL last season, averaging a point per game in the VHLE last season as a defensemen none the less, furthermore Bouchard was a huge part of Saskatoon's S82 Founder's Cup with 18 points in 19 games played. 6 PRAGUE PHANTOMS Malum Maellard @frescoelmo D TPE: 310 SEASON GP G A PTS (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB Season 83 - Regular Season 72 15 63 78 31 168 74 127 50 Season 82 - Regular Season 16 1 6 7 6 7 8 14 12 Season 83 - Playoffs 18 4 5 9 -4 49 16 32 25 Season 82 - Playoffs 19 0 5 5 -8 3 6 9 7 This pick is a really interesting one for Prague and really depends on their plans for the S85 draft, however having recently acquired Red Gaming, a defensemen is the likely pick here. Malum Maellard makes perfect sense for Prague as they already have a solid forward group for this season, and while they do have 4 defensemen, Maellard would be a significant step up from all their young defensemen and would slot into their roster immediately. 7 VANCOUVER WOLVES Noodles Marconi @Eynhallow RW TPE: 345 SEASON GP G A PTS (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB Season 83 - Regular Season 72 4 7 11 9 84 12 39 3 Season 82 - Regular Season 12 5 3 8 2 28 4 2 2 Season 83 - Playoffs 7 1 1 2 0 6 4 8 1 Season 82 - Playoffs 11 2 6 8 3 31 2 13 7 Vancouver has their work cut out for them going forward, and will likely take the best forward available seeing as they already have a solid future defensemen and goalie. For that reason we have them taking Noodles Marconi, Marconi will slot into their first line right away and as a result of that we could see Marconi's production drastically increase, seeing how they only had 11 points in 72 games with Istanbul last season. For Marconi this will provide them with the opportunity to prove themselves and show that they are ready for the VHL. 8 CALGARY WRANGLERS Scoish Velociraptor Maloish @youloser1337 D TPE: 361 SEASON GP G A PTS (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB Season 83 - Regular Season 71 8 33 41 -28 124 134 210 149 Season 82 - Regular Season 16 0 2 2 2 3 14 41 17 Season 83 - Playoffs 12 3 6 9 6 18 24 13 6 Season 82 - Playoffs 19 0 2 2 -8 11 18 47 16 Having drafted AirRig GoodBrandSun last season, Scoish Velocirapto Maloish will complete Calgary's top pair for some time to come. Maloish is coming off of a solid season in the VHLE with Rome and Bratislava where they played a key role for both franchises and produced well during Bratislava's cup run with 9 points in 12 games. Calgary is currently trending up in a hurry and Maloish will be a big part of their future. 9 TORONTO LEGION Cobalt Burns @Ledge LW TPE: 345 SEASON GP G A PTS (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB Season 83 - Regular Season 72 23 28 51 -17 249 87 221 65 Season 82 - Regular Season 14 1 2 3 1 19 6 16 2 Season 82 - Playoffs 7 4 1 5 5 9 4 8 0 Seeing how Toronto is currently in cap hell, and drafting a VHL ready winger would be a step in the right direction. Additionally, Cobalt Burns fits Toronto's needs exactly as they will be losing Paul Atreides to retirement, Burns will likely step straight into the lineup. Toronto has a bright future and drafting Burns will be a step in the right direction. 10 LONDON UNITED Clueless Wallob @DMaximus G TPE: 346 SEASON GP W L OTL SV% GAA SO GA SA Season 83 - Regular Season 52 40 9 2 0.907 1.69 9 85 913 Season 82 - Regular Season 15 2 9 1 0.879 5.89 0 69 568 Season 83 - Playoffs 15 7 6 1 0.886 2.68 1 34 298 London has a few directions they could go with this pick, however with Cole Pearce being a UFA after this season, it may be worth it for London to cash in on their value and draft Clueless Wallob here. Wallob would be a solid starting goalie for the duration of their VHL career. Wallob has shown some considerable improvement over their career going from a 0.879 SV% in S82 to a 0.907 SV% last season. Wallob will likely be a steal for any team that takes him, and it looks like London could be the winner here. 11 PRAGUE PHANTOMS Velociraptor Greg @samx D TPE: 300 SEASON GP G A PTS (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB Season 83 - Regular Season 72 23 62 85 52 236 44 116 97 Season 82 - Regular Season 16 0 0 0 10 6 10 11 8 Season 83 - Playoffs 16 7 10 17 3 62 10 12 23 Season 82 - Playoffs 13 2 3 5 2 8 12 13 9 The VHLM's top undrafted defensemen last season, Velociraptor Greg comes into the draft Greg could prove to be a steal as they are a great locker room presence and have a very high potential. Last season Greg had 23 goals and 62 assists (2nd in VHLM) for a total of 85 points. Prague is currently entering a new era for the team as their GM has been trading away players for future assets, Greg will be the first piece and potential face of the franchise for this new Prague Phantoms team. 12 WARSAW PREDATORS Faith Hope Love @MMFLEX D TPE: 326 SEASON GP G A PTS (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB Season 83 - Regular Season 72 12 31 43 28 161 60 141 59 Season 82 - Regular Season 10 0 2 2 7 8 8 10 3 Season 83 - Playoffs 18 0 3 3 -2 13 24 35 23 Season 82 - Playoffs 4 0 3 3 -5 5 0 6 4 Warsaw's biggest need going into this draft is a defensemen that could potentially play in the VHL this season. They get that and more with Faith Hope Love, who should be able to crack the opening night roster and will improve consistently throughout the season to be a solid defensive option come the playoffs. Although not the most offensive defensemen having only recorded 43 points last season, Love's defensive play was spectacular and their offensive output was likely reduced to being on a top team in the VHLM. At this point in the draft I would consider this an absolute steal for Warsaw. 13 MOSCOW MENACE Molly The Cat @JCarson LW TPE: 252 SEASON GP G A PTS (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB Season 83 - Regular Season 72 32 27 59 30 226 36 107 8 Season 83 - Playoffs 18 9 11 20 3 83 14 37 3 Molly The Cat took the league by storm this season and could easily end up being drafted in the top 10. For Moscow this pick makes a lot of sense as their window to win is closing after making the finals 4 seasons in a row and having traded some big names in recent seasons. Molly The Cat would serve alongside Tomas Sogaard as the first 2 pieces of this new age Moscow team. Molly Produced well last season for San Diego and was even above a point per game in the playoffs with 20 points, 9 of which were goals in 18 games. If they make it this far in the draft don't be surprised if you see Moscow draft them in a heartbeat. 14 CALGARY WRANGLERS AK92 Wit Da Hoodie @hedgehog337 D TPE: 337 SEASON GP G A PTS (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB Season 83 - Regular Season 72 22 42 64 40 183 50 116 89 Season 82 - Regular Season 15 3 12 15 7 32 10 16 22 Season 83 - Playoffs 18 4 10 14 -1 61 18 31 20 Season 82 - Playoffs 11 3 6 9 -7 29 4 20 22 With Calgary already having a very solid forward core we can expect them to take their second defensemen of this draft in AK 92 Wit Da Hoodie. This season they would likely be in the VHLE and come up to replace Asher Reinhart for season 85. Last season they were a solid high producing defensemen for San Diego with 57 points in 66 games with the team. Lastly, they are no slouch defensively having over 100 hits and 88 blocked shots. AK92 Wit Da Hoodie will be a great fit on just about any team and would fit Calgary's needs perfectly at this point of the draft. 15 MOSCOW MENACE Fraser Wallace @Hoopydog C TPE: 296 SEASON GP G A PTS (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB Season 83 - Regular Season 72 23 28 51 33 210 61 132 11 Season 82 - Regular Season 16 2 1 3 -9 7 4 10 2 Season 83 - Playoffs 18 2 6 8 -5 43 10 34 1 Season 82 - Playoffs 7 0 0 0 -1 5 0 4 2 Similarly to Molly The Cat, Fraser Wallace fits Moscow's needs perfectly as they should by all means develop into a solid first line center for the team in a season or 2. Last season they were a solid two-way center for San Diego as they would finish the season with 51 points, a + 33, and 132 hits, all of which were very respectable. The sky is the limit for Fraser Wallace and he would be a great future center for Moscow or any other team. 16 SEATTLE BEARS Tyler Busser @lll C TPE: 309 SEASON GP G A PTS (+/-) SHT PIM HITS SB Season 83 - Regular Season 72 31 50 81 26 341 51 158 10 Season 82 - Regular Season 12 0 2 2 -1 10 10 11 1 Season 83 - Playoffs 18 6 12 18 -1 59 12 51 2 Season 82 - Playoffs 4 0 1 1 -1 5 4 4 0 The final pick of the first round, we will see Seattle likely take the best player available as they will be up in the VHLsooner and can then contribute to the Bears. Last season Busser contributed on both sides of the puck in the VHLM and could see themselves in the running for the top two-way player award with 81 points, a +26, and 158 hits. We will likely see Busser in the Bears lineup as soon as Season 85.
