Subject056 1,187 Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 (edited) 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 Edited September 16 by Subject056 Updated tagged user JB123, JardyB10 and Frank 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 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. Â Thanks to everyone who made the E possible, the BOGs, Commish, GM, and everyone in between Edited September 17 by ShawnGlade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

mattyIceman 1,207 Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
