A Brief History of @dylanjj37's VHLMers Part 2

 

 

We're back with episode two of Dylan's VHLMers! In case you missed part 1, I'll attach a link here, so you can read it first. To stretch this out even more (basically to make Dylan wait for the Juan specific article) I will only be talking about Bryn Yrwy. Next week, or maybe the week after, I will be writing the greatest media spot of all time featuring Juan Ceson. However, today is about Bryn, and as such, let's begin.

 

Bryn Yrwy

Bryn was created at the start of season 76. He was a center and signed with the great team known as the Mexico City Kings. He played a full 72 games that season wracking up a monster 11 assists and 4 goals scored. His 39 hits left a lot to be desired for a center of his caliber, but he would improve upon those in the following seasons. Luckily for Bryn, Mexico City had made the playoffs that year. Throughout the 15 games they played that year in the playoffs, Bryn was only able to get one assist and two hits. Bryn was hard carried to a Founder's Cup his first year. However, a cup is a cup, so Bryn will gladly add that to his list of accomplishments. Mexico's agm @rory had this to say about Bryn, "Bryn was truly a glue guy in the locker room. Hylands built an amazing mix of skill players and physical specimens on the ice, but without Yrwy keeping the team together in the locker room after a tough period, we wouldn't have gotten as far as we did. It was an honour being able to witness, up close, such a player in the peak of their career". Coincidentally enough, Rory would end up taking the reigns as GM of Halifax next season where Bryn ended up being drafted. Bryn ended up being drafted 46th overall in S77. Until he retired, Bryn called Halifax home. In season 77 Bryn definitely improved his stats and managed to put up 16 goals and 17 assists. Not bad for a second year VHLM player. He also improved his hits to 62 this season. In the post-season, Halifax made a great run at the cup, but ultimately fell short. Bryn was a decent participant that year in the post-season with 2 goals and 2 assists in 12 games played. S78 was really a nothing year for Bryn. His stats weren't bad or anything, he just was very forgettable. Improving over the previous season, Bryn put up 29 goals and 38 assists. He fell short in the hits department regressing to a mere 36 hits. He also did nothing of note in the post-season (not that Halifax got very far). He put up only 1 goal and 1 assist in 7 games played. As you'll learn soon, this was only the calm before the storm with Bryn. In his upcoming two seasons, Bryn was about to turn the VHLM upside down with his skillset. Everything changed when Rory stepped down as GM of Halifax. @samx was about to take the reigns and take Bryn's skill to heights one could only imagine (no offence to rory's GM skills). It was rumored that before S79 started, Sam had committed acts of witchcraft in Boston that would allow Bryn to blossom into the player he is. After a small child was sacrificed, Bryn and Sam returned to Halifax. This year was the start of something big. Once again, Bryn played all 72 games, however this year his stats were unbelievable. He put up 62 goals and 76 assists. That is almost 2 points per game! He took 459 shots compared to previous years of 164 and 146. He also turned into a big hitting center with 132 hits that year. Bryn also took home the highly coveted Alexander Chershenko Trophy. Unfortunately, Halifax had the worst playoff appearance yet. Halifax lost in 5 short games in the first round. Bryn did his best to get the wins for his team, but one player can only do so much. He put up 3 goals and 6 assists in those 5 games played. However, winning a trophy off an unbelievable year was all Bryn needed at heart. Season 80 marked the final season of Bryn's career, but he wanted to make sure he made it count. He put up a whopping 76 goals and 91 assists for a total of 167 points. It was one of the best performances a player has ever had in the VHLM. He even improved his hitting further, and finished the year with 140 hits. Unfortunately, once again Halifax fell short in the playoffs. A tough way to end his career...or was it? After the season concluded Bryn learned he had won a back to back Alexander Chershenko Trophy, but even better, he won two others. Bryn won both the Mitch Higgins Trophy and the Ethan Osborne Trophy. A stunning performance to end his career Bryn retired happily. Talking with GM samx she had this to say about Bryn, "Bryn was an amazing asset to the team both on and off the ice. He brought his A game on the ice. Off the ice he was active and fun to be around". We also caught up with Dylanjj37 and asked his thoughts on his magnificent player. He responded, "Bryn Yrwy was amazing during his entire career but his final two seasons just blew everything else out of the water. He was absolutely fantastic. Nothing can compare or even come close to the great feats that Bryn Yrwy achieved". 

 

Well, that wraps up our article on Bryn Yrwy. That means we only have one player remaining to talk about. The legendary Juan Ceson who remains active in the VHLM to this day. Part 3 will be an in depth analysis of Juan's career featuring a never before seen interview with Dylanjj37 himself! I look forward to seeing you all in our conclusion of Dylan's players.

No interview with Bryn Yrwy? Guess he's too busy in Saskatoon. Otherwise sounds like a great player and a great article!
