Unfortunate news but it did its job and ran its course. Was honored to be a part of Oslo and the VHLE.


Will always remember winning my only VHLE cup in Oslo, was such a fun season with you in charge

Goodbye Europe! 

 

Although I had my first and now only season in the E, I thoroughly enjoyed my players time with Oslo. Not only because we won the Renaissance Cup that season but @JB123 was an outstanding GM and the team was great. Definitely a memorable time in the E.

 

So long and thanks for all the fish :cheers:

I'm going to assume that's @JB123 😛

Yea if there's another Covid to cause a mass lock down and subsequent flood of internet users and thus VHL members, the E will likely be reinstated to fill the need

Nothing is impossible. The system did work as intended (despite the feelings some have about it) but just doesn’t make current sense anymore. I wouldn’t call it likely but you never know.

I won't lie, some of you are probably thrilled to be reading this, but for me it's bitter sweet.

I was never apart of the "fuck VHLE" crowd, but I will admit that over the years I've never really cared for it. I don't think it's bitter sweet for me in the same way it may be for others, but I think you described it perfectly at the end. The VHLE wasn't a failure, in fact my best seasons as a goalie were in the E. I just think it was a league for it's time that like you said, it made sense when the world was in a lockdown and everybody was chronically online (myself included). I think this site has always functioned on a two-league system with not much in it's favor for a third league. I admittedly was coming around on the E, and I realized that as my real life got busier and I was relegated to welfare earning, it was nice to have a middle league for me to play in.

 

Thanks to everyone who made the E possible, the BOGs, Commish, GM, and everyone in between

I've always been curious about how a true farm system would work. Give each VHL team a singular, dedicated minor league team

 

Of course, logistically impossible at this point in time, from building 16 different brands, and then FILLING 16 different teams....never gonna happen. But still cool to ponder

I think in the dawn of the VHL this was a thing but was abandoned after some time (I am sure Victor will jump in and correct me)...

Correct, the original VHLM used the farm system. It was abandoned relatively early so that the M could have their own GM’s with their own control rather than having their lines tacked onto the VHL ones and such.

Makes you wonder...

 

Had the hybrid system been in place before the VHLE, the balance of performance would have never culminated in the VHLE being created in the first place.

 

I can't recall how many active members there were back then, but I think I do recall that the creation of the E was a better idea than to expand and contract VHLM franchises to fit all the actives.

 

I still think it should be VHLJ tho... it's a junior league for draftees, not minor affiliations.
