Off-Season rankings

 

 

Here I was going to do a quick random thoughts write-up again as seems to become more the norm; which I hate since I rather write interesting and creative idea or make interesting to me graphics but time has not been my friend in the month of August and maybe a bit before that so instead of boring,

I am going no thought or not data collection ranking of the VHL teams off seasons; in no particular order either.

 

 

Calgary Wranglers                   F

it was disappointed off season for the team as fan base now cheers for rival Bears this season and hope for better days.

 

 

Chicago Phoenix.                     C

trade (S88) Liv Slater for futures and selected Franchise goaltender. Struggles still ahead.

 

 

DC Dragons                              C

Made the team better but at the cost futures. Maybe a sign of impatience

 

 

HC Davos Dynamo                  B

Rebuilt second line and depth forwards. Need to run 3d all season and can be a concern but still a solid team.

 

 

Helsinki Titans                         C

Where is the defense? Wolanin & Braun make the team better but enough to make the play-offs?

 

 

London United                        D

Two players around 400TPE in the forward group could be ugly for United. Improved by bring in Nesbitt but is it enough?

 

 

Los Angeles Stars                    C

Saved by New York with Dynamite & Puk trade. Still need to make roster moves with 2.5M but that might be tough at this stage.

 

 

Malmo Nighthawks                 A

Aggressive, Eagles, Probert & Weaver and still 2M remaining for trade deadline. Maybe a contender?

 

 

Moscow Menace                    D

Stepping back to step forward but still have aged assets on the roster?

                       

New York Americans               F         

Traded away assets to get young and a roster that the VHLE would be proud of!!

 

 

Prague Phantoms                    E         

Did you actually do anything this off-season? 2.5M can be used to get better at trade deadline.

 

 

Riga Reign                               F         

3M and two large holes. Can they make a run or further changes to stay competitive?  

 

 

Seattle Bears                           B         

Goncalves & Wallob keeps them contending. Still missing pieces but 3m to spend.

 

 

Toronto Legion                        A         

Pretender to Contender? Siyan & Moscow make them better.

 

 

Vancouver Wolves                  C

Passive-aggressive. Depth is the option and future D. Stepping back is possible.

 

 

Warsaw Predators                  C

Looking to the Future with VHLE roster. Long season projected

 

 

Tell me below as I am sure to care why I am wrong or things that I missed. Again, I did no research so of course I am wrong!!
