Bobandy Stuff

Randy Bobandy is heading into game 6 of the VHLE finals with the Oslo Storm. The Storm are down 3-2 in the series after winning a nail bitter game 5 in overtime against Rome. Bobandy has his foot on the pedal these playoffs with 9 goals and 10 assists for 19 points in 13 games. Bobandy leads the league in playoff points and goals and hopes to continue his dominance to help Oslo find another Cup. With all of this going on, Bobandy is 99% focused on the playoffs, but in the back of his mind he is always thinking about the upcoming VHL draft that he is eligible for. Bobandy leads his draft class in TPE and has been at the top since the creation of the S87 draft class. Bobandy will have over 400 TPE by draft day and will be determined to play in the VHL next season. This draft class has three top earnings who should all go to the top three picks, but where will Bobandy go? We won't know exactly until the draft lottery gets under way, but by looking at the S86 VHL standings you can guess that the top three picks will be Riga, Los Angeles, and Toronto.

 

If Riga gets the first overall pick then without a doubt Alex's player will go first. Riga is defence deprived and if they're looking for a franchise defensemen they would be crazy to pass on Alex. If Bobandy goes to Riga, it looks like he will play the second line center role behind Frenchman. OD is a brilliant builder and earner and will have more TPA than my player for a long time while active. A positive to this though is Sadie St. Louis will be moving up to play for Riga next season and would most likely play the second line with Bobandy. I think our builds intertwine with each other and we could be a scary duo.

 

Moving onto Los Angeles, the team who drafted my first player 5th overall in S79. Rockstar has been rebuilding the Stars since he traded away my player Williams in S84. I really like the work he's done and the team, even with a poor record this past season, look to be dangerous in the next two seasons. The defense core is very solid and with Vanderlay in between the pipes you don't need to worry about bad goals going in. Where they lack is their forward core with a lot of low earning players. Frost, wcats, and Krzy are their main forces and I feel like with the way I earn TPE, I could move my way up to the first line with them in two-ish seasons. I would like to go to Los Angeles since I had a great first experience with the team and I feel like my player can succeed there.

 

Lastly I'll talk about Toronto. This team isn't great. They don't have any franchise players besides Doomsday in net who will retire in two seasons. The youngest player on their active roster is S84 and their prospect pool is really weak. Sorry to poo on your team Moon but y'all are looking rough. If I get drafted to Toronto I feel like the team is still in rebuild mode for a bit unlike Los Angeles or even Riga. I don't know how I'd feel about being drafted here but if I do I'll give Toronto a chance and hopefully I'll really like it there.

 

Anyways I wrote enough, bye.
