leandrofg 1,280 Posted yesterday at 05:41 PM Share Posted yesterday at 05:41 PM Hello VHL fans! Welcome to a new chapter of international madness! Yes, it’s finally happened - after spending the last eight seasons illegally claiming World Cup Commissioner job pay, it's my time to step out and write this thing myself. What could go wrong? This season, the World Cup heads somewhere truly chill. We’re talking snow, ice, and more snow! That’s right, for the first time, we’re taking the tournament north. North like "did-my-face-just-freeze-during-warmups" north. Why? Well, we figured the players needed a little humility after all those luxury venues. Nothing says "national pride" like windburn and triple-layer thermal equipment. So grab your mittens, tape your stick, and prepare for frozen faces and fiery rivalries. The S98 World Cup of Hockey is here - and it's going to be cooler than ever. Teams and rosters The rosters are being worked on as we speak, and once again, the best of the best will be representing their regions with pride, skill, and a bucket-full of international spite. Which veterans will return to chase another medal? Which rookies are poised to have breakout performances? Only time - and a highly subjective spreadsheet - will tell. Expect team announcements coming out as soon as tonight! GM Announcements As for GMs, we’ve selected a few great minds ready to lead their squads trash trash-talking glory. Without further ado: Returning to lead the incumbent champions, the General Manager for Team USA is... @Spartan ! Stepping up to lead the red and white this season, the General Manager for Team Canada is... @sadie! Flying the flag for Western Europe, filled with flair and firepower, the General Manager is... @SMYLS4! ⚜ Looking to shake up the tournament and play spoiler, the General Manager for Team Eastern Europe is... @badcolethetitan! With a deep-rooted Malmö connection, the General Manager for Team Nordic is... @LucyXpher! Bringing together the best from everywhere else - and hoping to put the pieces together - the General Manager for Team World is... @Ricer13! Fantasy Think you’ve got what it takes to out-draft the competition? This tournament, we’re introducing the World Cup Fantasy Face-Off. Here’s how it works: Pick your squad: 3 Forwards 2 Defensemen 1 Goalie Compare your lineup to the Best Possible Team (top 3 Forwards, top 2 Defensemen, top Goaltender in total points). If your total lands within: 90-100% -> 3 TPE 80-89.99% -> 2 TPE 70-79.99% -> 1 TPE Below 70% -> 0 TPE ☝ Bonus: Choose a nation you think will win it all. If your pick wins gold, your final score gets a 5% boost! It’s simple, and it’s probably going to end in heartbreak when your forward starts a fight and your goalie forgets how to goalie. But that’s the beauty of Simon, right? Entry form and more details coming soon! -- It doesn't matter if you're cheering from the arena or your couch; get ready for crazy rivalries and awesome hockey. The S98 World Cup of Hockey is about to begin. WELCOME TO NUUK!
