Senior Admin Will 4,662 Posted May 29, 2015 Senior Admin Share Posted May 29, 2015 Well, this is unfortunate in one sense but I'm rather excited to start fresh in another sense. Draper's career didn't go overly well and I didn't accomplish much, or most, of what I had hoped to. For the most part, I felt his performance didn't correlate with the amount of work I put into him and that's obviously frustrating, but that's just the way she goes. Having to cut his career so short is also regrettable. So from my players perspective, my first VHL career was disappointing. From my perspective though, my first VHL career was great and I thank you all for being cool people. I do owe specific shoutouts to my two GMs though, eaglesfan and STZ, who both played a big part in my career and have become some of my favorite chat mates. I should also give a shoutout to my colleague and recruiter, Higgins. That's pretty much all I have to say.

eaglesfan036 4,605 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 thanks for the shoutout Graper! It's a shame you didn't win any cups with Graper considering the tons of tpe you put into him, but at least I could win you 2 cups on Yukon!

Higgins 3,618 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 A short ballad I wrote, in honour of Don Draper. Rest in Peace, Don. ----- I was a hockeyman Along the ice roads I did skate With stick and puck by my side Many a young 10's lost her panties to my trade Many a enemies shed his lifeblood on my blade The bastards hung me in the season of forty-three But I am still alive I was a hockeyman I was born upon the blueline And with the rules I did abide I sailed a team round the captaincy of Helsinki I went aloft and didn't win the Continental Cup And when my teammates broke off they said that I got killed But I am living still I was a hockeyman Across the rink deep and wide Where steel and frozen water did collide A place called Hartwall Arena on the wild Finland I slipped and fell into the trade deadline below They buried me in that great Davos tomb that knows no sound But I am still around I'll always be around, and around and around and around and around... I'll command a Titan Across the VHL world divide And when I reach the other side I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can Perhaps I may become a hockeyman again Or I may simply be a single fragment of ice But I will remain And I'll be back again, and again and again and again and again...

NotAVHLM-GM 1,858 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Thanks for not continuing the way you started your career. I thought that you would break the first gen tpe record. <3 Have fun with your new player Draper Will 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/20576-don-draper-retires/#findComment-222927 Share on other sites More sharing options...
STZ 5,389 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 (edited) Great Job with your first player, it's too bad he didn't live up to the amount of work you put in. He's more likely to probably break through these next two seasons, but obviously this is the right move for you. Was a lot of fun playing alongside Draper, and I hope I get a chance with your new guy. Thanks for all the great seasons as Captain of the Titans and for being the guy I could always counsel and bounce ideas off of. :hel: Edited May 29, 2015 by STZ Will 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/20576-don-draper-retires/#findComment-222948 Share on other sites More sharing options...
