The rumors were true, there is indeed a new man at charge in Mississauga. At least he was a man before...

 

Starting as AGM for team europe in S84's World Juniors with a bronze medal he didn't really make a name for himself there with a smaller role all the credit for this cause to the gm Mr.Carson.

 

His first notable role was Cologne's Agm. Once again a smaller assistant role but it's the role that ultimately got him on the spotlights. In his first season as Cologne AGM under Zef Goncalves in 85 the team ended up 3rd in the VHLE with 91 points. They made a beautiful playoff push before sadly falling short to Oslo in the final.

 

In the offseason, Vincent became the gm of Toon Squad in the Pro-Am his first Gm job. The team ended up falling short against the Oakville Ongoles in semi-finals but redeemed themselves by winning the bronze medal in 5 games !

 

Then it was time to get back to Cologne! According to rumors the most important touch LG bringed on the table during his time as Cologne AGM is draft scouting. In the first draft of the tandem they didn't have a lot of draft picks only having 2 4th, a 5th and a 6th. But they completely robbed the show drafting Ben Dover, Justin Lion, Sigma Freud, Justin Lion and Keon Jeannot. All very important piece of the team to this day. While the final choice ultimately was Goncalves' his AGM pitch probably influenced him for a couple of these picks. Now let's get on to the season, what can I say? Well The Season 86 Cologne Express had the best VHLE season of all time! Yes, that team ended up with 120 pts the most ever in a single regular season in the league's history. Like every 1st seed in the NHL, Cologne ended up eliminated by Oslo in their first playoff round. A sad end to a wonderful season. Oslo once again had the express' number.

 

 

For the off-season, Vincent once again became a Pro-Am gm. This time for the Babylon Wonders one of the best team  name ever. After an intense battle in regular season the Wonders ultimately ended up on top of the league. Come playoff time, they swept the blue shells to reach the finals against the detroit dodos. Sadly, the team fell short but had a silver medal to compensate.

 

 

In the same 86 offseason, Vincent also became the gm of the Steel in the Junior Showcase tournament. Despite leading for the first few days the team had a rough phase and ended the regular season last. They had to start the playoff in a wildcard best of 5 against the warriors. After losing the first 2 games by 1 goal the Steel came back to form and won 8-1 before going on to win the 2 other game and reverse sweep the warriors. Their first match of the semis was against the royals. They won the first game 8-4 but lost the 2nd one 4-3. They lost the next 2 games 4-3 in Ot now being down 3-1 in the series. The next game Royals won 4-1 ultimately eliminating the Steel. The Royals ended up winning in 7 in the finals which means steel won the bronze medal.

 

 

Back in Cologne, it was time for the draft. Express had a 1st round pick and a 3rd round pick. With the 1st they drafted Tim Riggins a pick that looked like a reach but quickly looked like a genius move by the team. Sadly, Warsaw called him up before he could play for Cologne. This pick looks like it was pushed by Vincent since Tim Riggins was the star of the Steel team. With their 3rd round pick they selected Jarkko Laakkonen who is currently playing with the team. Cologne once again finished the season has 1st seed. In the playoff, they started by winning in 5 games against the Geneva Rush. In the finals they were against the dynasty and their bitter rivals of the last couple of season the Oslo Storm. This time around the story had a better ending with Cologne finally winning the cup! 

 

 

In the S87 offseason, once again, VLG choose to gm in the Pro-AM this time for the Atlantis Apocalypse. The team was a complete success. They started off pretty badly 10-10 because he couldn't find the right chemistry between his troups. But he quickly found it and dethroned the Playfull Pretty pandas playing piano in Paris. In the playoff they continued their dominance and VLG won his first Pro-Am! 

 

 

For the last time, he was back in Cologne for the draft. Cologne had one pick in each round except the 1st. For this draft we know who VLG pushed for Goncalves to pick. It was Brad Marchand in the 3rd round which is looking like a good move for the team. VLG didn't have time to end the season in Cologne.

 

In the middle of the season, the Hounds gm had to resign from the position following an unexpected event. Vincent was chosen to replace him. His first full gm position. But something weird happened. The second it was revealed he got the position, he turned into a creature called Coleman Trebor/Robert. This is a very bizzarre occurence and no one knows how it happened. But here we are. As gm, he only completed one trade it was to acquire James Macavoy for a conditionnal 3rd and a 4th. He quickly hired the most wanted management rookie Subject as AGM. Under his management, the team started off very well but had a pretty meh stint after 10 games. These few bad games saw the team drop to 4th place behind Halifax, Mexico city, San Diego. But he quickly found the right chemistry between his troops and the team is currently on a 13-1-0 run which makes them tied in 2nd place with San Diego. 

 

 

There we are now you know all the story of the man turned dino man as we are close to the playoff of his very first full time GM position.
