eaglesfan036 4,605 Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 The King of the North Remember a few seasons ago when the EU conference was the place to be, with Stockholm, Cologne, Riga, and Davos all competing for the cup? Well, like the waves upon Higgin's mammogram, the cycle of competing and rebuilding has made a complete 360. The EU Conference is now a shell of its former self, with Cologne being the only team that can be considered competing thanks to their trade for some scrub named Phil. Cologne will likely win the EU by default, and likely has a great setup for themselves over the next few seasons as one of the only competitors in the EU. Because of this easy route to the finals, look for Cologne to win a cup over the next few seasons. The Titans are in full rebuild mode after a nice period of cup wins, Riga and Davos are in the midst of rebuilding after some unfortunate playoff series, and who really knows what Stockholm is doing. Now that we are done looking at the garbage EU Conference, let's look at the superior continent, North America. The title-defending Toronto Legion are currently tied for first in North America with the Quebec City Meute. Toronto is primed for another great season, led by stars such as Molholt, Parechkin, and WinGod. They also have some cap space left, and will be able to add a powerful piece at the deadline similar to their amazing acquisition in Tim TebowGow last season. Quebec has finally made it south of the wall after many years of travel, and will add a new face to the cup competition. After a crazy trade for Helsinki scrubs in Koponen and Clegane, Quebec also looks ready to make some noise. These old Quebec faces will be combined with some of Quebec's youth in Tom Lincoln, John Sleeman, and Felipe Rodriguez to form a solid squad. Next up we have the New York Americans, lead by fearless playoff competitor and porridge lover Jorma Ruutu. It feels like New York has been in the playoff running for forever, which is a testament to the great work done by Advantage and Yeah. Personally, I am not convinced they have the firepower to make much noise this season, but we shall see. Lastly, the Seattle Bears remain in the fray, as they were happy to retain Sterling in free agency as well as gain another stud in Tfong. Banacock has shown in the VHLM he knows what he is doing, and it looks like it is translating over to the VHL so far. Also, Clegane had a monster year last year and looks to keep it up and help carry his team to the finals. So what are my predictions for the season? I predict Toronto defeats Quebec in the semi-finals, then Seattle defeats Toronto and goes on to defeat Cologne. All EU predictions are pointless since Cologne will win. Also, my boy Gooningitup seems to have an itch to compete, so I think Davos might make a little bit of nose in the EU this year. Thank you for reading and please ban Adwyer and have a nice day.
