Kingma 34 Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 As we approach the trade deadline, the next crop of VHLM leaders is taking form. A number of current league leaders are preparing for the big leagues and will ultimately pass the 175 TPE threshold for staying in the VHLM. With them gone, the void will be filled with active and ambitious young guns stepping up. I have identified current Season 41 prospects that are likely to get close to the 175 TPE threshold, but are unlikely to break it before Season 41 begins. I have used a top secret algorithm to project these players' TPEs at the beginning of Season 41. Ranked by position and TPE, I introduce you to the future VHLM ones to watch. Centers Rift Pajodcast: Current TPE 117 Projected TPE 173 AIM-11: Current TPE 101 Projected TPE 170 Gifford Shock: Current TPE 102 Projected TPE 156 Raphael Pettyfer: Current TPE 82 Projected TPE 136 Til Baumann: Current TPE 77 Projected TPE 126 Right Wingers Mario De Rossi: Current TPE 81 Projected TPE 158 Markus Muller: Current TPE 84 Projected TPE 146 Yannik Zug: Current TPE 74 Projected TPE 140 Kyle Kingma: Current TPE 49 Projected TPE 116 Dirk Firkley: Current TPE 33 Projected TPE 76 Left Wingers Maris Ziedins: Current TPE 55 Projected TPE 106 Valentin Taneyev: Current TPE 51 Projected TPE 96 Defensemen Teuvo Ruutu: Current TPE 109 Projected 173 Jakub Rhinehart: Current TPE 86 Projected TPE 169 Jakob Ackerman: Current TPE 95 Projected TPE 156 Borje Samuelsson: Current TPE 97 Projected TPE 154 Nicklas Karlsson: Current TPE 56 Projected TPE 133 Brandon Homes: Current TPE 66 Projected TPE 124 Jack Harkness: Current TPE 51 Projected TPE 80 Goalies Fedir Okranitz: Current TPE 75 Projected TPE 126 David Blind: Current TPE 23 Projected TPE 46 Analysis As you can see, the Season 41 in the VHLM is shaping up to be a goal scorer's dream. Sure, there are to be well-qualified defensemen working hard in their own end, but the dearth of skilled goaltender prospects is going to be a problem for a lot of teams. If Minot can retain their dynamic defensive duo of Rhinehart and Muller, teams may have a tough time getting to the net. Bratislava should be able to maintain a highly potent offense with Pettyfer, Shock and De Rossi. The Bern Royals will need to make some good off-season moves if they are to compete next year. While they look to retain Karlsson, many of the supporting roles are not likely to improve and they do not have the rights to Kyle Kingma for next season unless they make a move for him at the draft. Turku is likely to retain the title of VHLM bottom dweller due to their severe lack of talent on all fronts.
