KRZY 416 Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 Well better late then never , here’s this weeks edition of ramblings ….. since I can’t think of a clear cut topic to talk about . JB Steps down @JB123 has stepped down after a master class showing as the GM of the Oslo Storm. Originally taking over the Storm in S83 JB’s first 2 seasons at the helm were rebuilding years and for a lack of better term disappointing . But it all turned around in S85 . Something clicked that off season for JB and the Storm and he turned Oslo into a perennial contender in the VHLE . Making the finals four straight seasons winning 3 out of 4 . Every year it seemed as tho Oslo would be entering a rebuild but JB always found a way to keep the Storm relevant and competitive. If there’s a VHLE Builders section in the VHLE JB should be a first ballot hall of famer all day long. Only time will tell where he will go from here . It will be interesting to see if he can one day carry that success to a VHL team . VHLE goes back to 6 teams With the recent announcement of the VHLE going back to 6 teams from 8 it will be interesting to watch in the first season post change with new rules , rosters , dynamics etc. the landscape of the VHLE will for sure change . Hopefully for the better resulting in a more active league with fewer IA players filling empty spots on every roster. I have mixed feelings on this change after spending the last 5 seasons in Oslo as AGM . Honestly I liked having 8 teams it made for some pretty compelling rivalries and competitive seasons in my opinion. I’m all for change so I’m gonna give this one a good look and be open to it before I decide how I fully feel about the change . End of an Era Well the S81 draft class has retired now and from what I can see and tell that draft class was filled to the brim with future hall of famers . Whether it was Pearce , Janser , Miglaskems , Cheese , Nezuko , etc etc . This class might go down as an all time great class . If there’s one thing you can bet on it’s that we just got a lot of promising recreates in the next couple seasons to come !! New York surprises everyone !! After beating LA in the wildcard round, the Americans disposed of the Bears in 6 games. Nezuko and Napoleon Dynamite have formed a nice duo for New York and are leading the league with 11 points in 6 games each . They will not face the Always competitive Wolves in the conference final in what should be a competitive and exciting matchup ! Can they keep it up and pull off the Underdog story ? Well there you have it there’s another edition of ramblings . Hopefully next week I can think of something to write a full media spot on . Thanks for reading folks ! Hope you enjoy the rest of the playoffs !! Cheers everyone until next time! Triller, Scurvy and JB123 3 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/138849-ramblings/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
