From Overlooked to VHLM Champion

Philadelphia Reapers have done it they have won the championship against the all mighty Mexico City Kings. The whole team was insane the playoff run with everyone deserving their own spotlight however we are going to focus on a guy who at the start of the season was a cut candidate. Anthony Simmons was a Guy who hasn't performed very good in a while and everything looked bleak for his future that he was contemplating retirement however as the season progressed he would continue to get better and eventually he would get some attention he didn't have before. However despite having his best career year in the regular season that was just the appetizer as his Playoff Performance was a miracle considering he was a cut candidate to start the season. Being a consistent performer in clutch moments, in rounds one and two and then just being a body in round three seemed to fall off at least that was until the end. With 20 seconds left in over time of game seven on a power play Simmons would have the Championship Clinching winner sending the Kings out as runner ups and with the Reapers as Champions. What might be over looked is after game 4 Simmons would give a speech in the locker room trying to rally the spirits of the team. In the end Simmons went from afterthought about to be Cut to a VHLM Champion in the span of one season and he's only just getting started.
