Toast 887 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 (edited) Down go the Titans… It seems that just about everyone in the league figured hat we would have to deal with the Helsinki Titans repeating yet again and a power trip from Draper so large that the league wouldn’t know what to do with itself! Thankfully, our lords and saviours, the Stockholm Vikings managed to dethrone the champions with the unexpected series win. Stockholm doesn’t even come close to the band of actives that Helsinki sports, but it seems that the system was just too much for Helsinki to handle. With stars like Stropko continuing to lead the Vikings, Stockholm was able to overcome the odds and is now in the midst of a Finals series against the New York Americans, who were able to beat Calgary in seven games to secure their ticket as well. So, with Stockholm going from last in the conference to the VHL Finals, people can’t help but cheer for them against the Americans. After all, who actually wants to see the Americans win here? This is a serious pick your poison kind of situation. Mysterious Force… Earlier this week, the league grew increasingly worried about the location of HC Davos general manager Ahma, who had not appeared on the site for several days. His inactivity streak went for almost a week as he channeled his inner Coach before finally reappearing and putting everyone’s concerns to rest. With how active Ahma has been since joining the league, it shouldn’t be a surprise that there are those who felt that his sudden disappearance was shocking to say the least. Then, as soon as Ahma returned, we lost Jardy for a sim day which caused some panic within the league as it related to one of the most important games thus far in the post-season. Thankfully, Jardy also overcame the odds and returned unharmed as well. The point of all of this is that there must be some sort of mysterious force working behind the scenes, causing our members to go inactive at any given time. I ask everyone to tie their respected ones down somewhere to make sure that this ‘Force’ doesn’t take control of them too. Save the members! Recruitment Drive… Most importantly in this week’s news is easily the most important as well. The VHL Recruitment Drive is getting an overhaul that will hopefully spark some of the best draft classes that the league has seen in quite some time. Out with the old system, and welcome to the uncapped TPE campaign. As you all can read in the announcements thread, which will be linked after these comments, there is an insane amount of TPE up for grabs. On top of the usual 3 and 10TPE up for grabs for 75 and 200TPE milestones, there is now 1, 2, and 2TPE for creating, 50, and 175TPE. That seems almost too easy, so anyone not trying to recruit is out of their minds right now. On top of all of this are extra points for related point tasks, a doubles week, and various other things to get everyone excited for the weeks to come for recruitment! It should be a good Drive anyways. See the full details: Edited February 29, 2016 by Toast DollarAndADream and Molholt 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
