VHLM Rivalries This Season

[ryf87 28]

For this media spot I would like to take a second to look over the player and team rivalries forming in the VHML this season. As this season goes on we have seen a lot of crazy performances in the VHLM. For example Mexico City started the season off with an absolutely insane win streak. With four teams not even four points apart in the standings fighting for first we are bound to have some intense rivalries. 

 

Starting off with my team the Miami Marauders and the Mississauga Hounds. These two teams are not only tied with each other in the standings, but they also have played each other a total of 9 times already with Mississauga winning five out of the nine games. In these nine games these two teams have played not one, not two, but three back to back matchups. It’s almost like the simulation is asking for a rivalry between the two teams as they fight back and forth.

 

Next we have Mexico City and the Ottawa Lynx. So far these teams have only played each other two times but as these two teams fight for number one in the league there is no doubt that a rivalry is forming. So far in the two games the teams have played against each other, they are very equal with the two splitting the series 1-1. To take it even further the two teams also have scored the same amount of goals against each other at 9 for both sides. As these two teams continue to play each other, watch out for a heated rivalry.

 

To conclude these rivalries we have a player rivalry between me and my friend. This rivalry is a bit different from the rest as we are on the same team. McDonald’s BigMac vs Burger King Whopper. Me and Whopper are friends in real life, I mentioned to him about joining the VHL recently and he did. As we are on the same team I hope that he and I can both put up points to help our team in winning the VHLM’s Founders Cup but I also secretly want him to do bad so I can make fun of him but as me and Whopper slowly progress in the VHL we are starting to become more competitive. This rivalry allows some healthy competition to be involved with our day to day interactions and allows us to bring something new to the table when it comes to conversation. Regrouping upon what has been previously said I hope to continue this rivalry and to keep it up as it allows for progress in his knowledge of hockey and allows growth in our friendship. 

 

To wrap up this media spot I believe that rivalries are good for this league. Not only does it bring another level to the simulation but it also can create fun competition. When two people are in a friendly rivalry with each other this can motivate them to earn more TPE and be better than the other. Looking back on my rivalry with Whopper I hope everyone can have a rivalry like that to motivate them.

That makes a lot of sense, I wondered why we had related player names haha. Always nice to have some friendly competition and someone to push you forward!
