Admin Victor 10,943 Posted April 6, 2015 Admin Share Posted April 6, 2015 So last season Aksel Thomassen and Bruno Wolf led the VHL in all offensive categories but were a clear case of the whole being greater than the sum of its parts – the two mesh like Phil Rafter and David Smalling, except their love isn't brotherly. The league's GMs clearly thought so too as Riga's goalie Mike Szatkowski Jr. won MVP with 7 votes to Thomassen's 2 and Wolf's 1. Neither Quebec player could be considered more valuable than the other, with New York also having no realistic nominees since they had 5 players with 100+ points. Calgary was also bizarrely offensive so the only skater with a genuine chance was Sachimo Zoidberg but he didn't make the playoffs which usually kills off any chances. So the voters turned to goaltending where the statistically the best were Mike, Brick Wahl, and Blaine Olynick. Wahl played for a great NY team, there could have been a case for Olynick, but Cologne scored 23 more goals than Riga and still finished 3 points behind. Lo and behold Season 42. Thomassen and Wolf run away into the brokeback mountains with a significant points lead, followed by 5 Americans with 100+ points (wtf, deja vu, exact same players as well). No one else hit 100 points. Again there could be a case for Zoidberg but he's pretty far back, not that far ahead of his teammate Cote and it's not like Toronto overachieved. So that brings us to goalies again. Mike now plays for a team which can score and Wahl is still stuck behind the greatest team in the world. But oh, what's this, a good goalie on a team which has few goals? Riga was pretty bad with 200 goals in S41, better only than the 3 tanking teams but OMG Cologne was so bad at scoring goals this season. 180, and they were second-worst in the league (behind Calgary and Seattle!!) until a 9-goal final sim against Calgary and Riga. But Martin Brookside, with stats very similar to Szatkowski's S41, kept them in a safe playoff position despite just one point-per-game player (O'Malley with 78 in 72). Without doubt, Aksel Thomassen for MVP. Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/18974-mvp-deja-vu/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
