The season is over so it’s time for the second Annual Miami Marauder awards presentation.  This season was extremely special as we saw our team gel in the locker room, have fun, and we even watched some newer players flourish and become true ambassadors of the league. The season didn’t end like we wanted it too but that sometimes happens in the SIM world, so we persevere. 

 

SHIVER ME TIMBERS AWARD- Most Hits- This award goes out to the nastiest Marauder who led the regular season in hits.  There are some players on a club who go about their business quietly and deadly. This player is always lurking in his end looking to decapitate opposing forward.  He was runner up last season, and it is deserving that he gets the award this season. 

 

The winner is: Don Jagr @koty_k 233 hits

Runner up- Filip Zinek @FiZi210 hits

 

 

AYE AYE AWARD- assist leader- The Aye Aye award is for the ultimate teammate that led the regular season in assists.  This wily defender took the league by storm and was in my opinion the best defenseman in the league leading all other defenders in points and finishing with 86 on the season.  So….

 

The winner is:  Armas Jortikka @Kavadar (60 assists)

Runner up: Jacob Longstreet @Dynamicmlb_42 (59 assists)

 

 

MAN O’ WAR AWARD- Most PIMS- Every pirate ship needs an enforcer to keep opposing foes in check and protect our star players.  Despite taking a more disciplined approach this year in Miami this player had to shed the mitts and send a message several times.  A favorite of the South Beach fans and teammates alike the winner is…..

 

Winner is- Don Jagr @koty_k- 99 PIM

Runner Up: Filip Zinek @FiZi

 

SCURVY DOG AWARD- Blocked Shots- It takes a special kind of animal to be willing to stand in front of a clapper bound to hit the soft spot in the side of your skate. This player not only blocked shots buts still managed to be the offensive dman in the league.  Also, the runner up was inches behind the winner, and I know having two animals in front of our goalie made him smile. The winner is.

 

Winner is Armas Jortikka @Kavadar 103 blocked shots

Runner up: Don Jagr @koty_k  101 blocked shots

 

ANCHOR AWARD- The word Anchor has several definitions.  One is, “a heavy object attached to a rope or chain used to moor a vessel to the sea bottom.”  Another and more fitting definition is, “a person or thing that can be relied on for support, stability, or security.”  It’s hard to argue this definition and not think of Miami’s netminder. 14 shutouts and a 1.64 GAA he was as stable a player as Miami had all season.  An absolute stud that will do great things in the VHL. 

 

Winner is: Draw Mac @Koutsi 48-14-7 1.64 GAA 14 shutouts

 

SEA DOG AWARD- This award goes out to our leading scorer in the regular season.  A true team leader and absolute savage with the puck.  He has worked his way to #2 all-time in Miami scoring, #1 in game winning goals, and #4 in all time assists.   It’s sad to see this player’s time to be done in Miami without the deserving Founders Cup but we are proud to have had him in Miami for the last 3 seasons. 

 

Winner is: Jacob Longstreet @Dynamicmlb_42 39-59-98 pts 

 

 

SCALLYWAG AWARD- Game winning goals- A team much like a marauding ship needs that clutch player who can score when the game is on the line.  This assistant captain was Miami’s leading scorer this season. Scored 12 GWG’s on the season to lead the Marauders and is now officially the franchise leader in GWG.

 

Winner is - Jacob Longstreet @Dynamicmlb_42  12 GWG

Runner up- Elf Shoes @ELF_SH0ES 11 GWG

 

PILLAGE AWARD- Penalty shot goals- There is no bigger dagger in the heart than allowing a penalty shot goal for a goalie.  This a true test of skill of both the player and the goalie with no teammates there to bail either player out.  This season Maimi had two clutch penalty shot players that will each earn the award with 5 penalty shot goals.  

 

Winners are:  Elf Shoes @ELF_SH0ES   5PSG

                                    Armas Jortikka @Kavadar 5 PSG

 

 

TOP BUCCANEER AWARD- Team MVP- Again, this is a tough award to hand out with so many amazing players on this club.  The Team is the true MVP this season but some players for sure should be in consideration. After breaking down the numbers and talking it over with our leader @Ricer13 this season will have co-MVP’s.  Each player dominated in their respective positions showing tremendous skill that gave the Marauders a chance to win every night.  The S97 Most Valuable Marauders are: 

 

Winners are Armas Jortikka @Kavadar and Draw Mac @Koutsi

Runner ups: Jacob Longstreet @Dynamicmlb_42

                            

 

PIRATE KING AWARD- The Pirate King Award goes to the player who received the most “Most Valuable Marauder” shout outs during the regular season.  This year we had a total of 13 different Marauders earn the coveted MVM during the week.  This year the overall winner won the award 6 times.  The winner is: 

 

Winners are: Luc Moreau @minman 6 MVM

Runner up: Draw Mac 5, Jakob Longstreet 4, Elf Shoes 4

 

ADMIRAL AWARD: This is a new award that @Ricer13 and I thought should go to the player on the team who shows the most initiative in mentoring and leadership.  This player came to the league in S95 and has truly been engrossed by the greatness of the VHL and its community.  This player took it upon himself to mentor all new members of the club to assist in earning and to help with the learning curve associated with applying TPE and builds.  We truly believe a player like this helps with not only making great players but with showing others the greatness the VHL has to offer its users.  @Ricer13 and I both hope to see this player in a leadership role on a club in the future.  (as long as they lose to Miami)   

 

This year’s Admiral Award winner is:

@minman

 

 

 

 

 

Congrats to all of you winners.  Thank you all for being such a great group this season and it was a true pleasure to be a part of this team. @Ricer13 and I wish you the best in your VHL/VHLM careers and we hope to see you again whether in Miami or as your player moves on to the VHL.  Hopefully, you all enjoyed your time in Miami. 

 

Marauders for life!
