Higgins 3,618 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 An Average Mock Draft Tomorrow is the big night when all the prospects that have been earning TPE for the past few months will find out which VHL team they will be joining. This draft class has shaped into one of the best we have had in terms of depth in quite a while. This is only the beginning for them though as the hard work only begins when you get drafted, in order to make a capable VHL player a lot more training is needed, but don't worry there will be lots of time and opportunities if you stay active, even if it is a welfare claim. The ball is in your court and the league will be what you can make of it, if you put in the work you will be noticed and you will soon find yourself in a position of ultimate power and before you know it, you'll be leading a full blown coup-d'etat against the current commissioners. With the new TPE updating scale for attributes coming into effect this season, this draft class has an opportunity like none other. They will be the first group to have their entire careers under the new rules, and it will benefit them greatly as the older players in their 7th and 8th seasons will be weaker than they usually would be in seasons gone by. I'm a GM in the league, with two first round picks to boot, so I have a major interest in this draft. So to avoid spoiling any selections, even if I do not know who I'm going to be selecting right now, I will do an average mock draft. I've calculated the average selection in all the previous media spot mock drafts for each player, there was a total of 18 mock drafts that I used in my calculations. I also updated the draft order because there was some trades featuring many of the first round picks. No longer Riga, New York or Stockholm in the first round, say hello to Seattle, Calgary, and a double down on Davos. 1st TORONTO LEGION Fook Yu Average Draft Position: 2.30 @tfong 2nd QUEBEC CITY MEUTE Torstein Ironside Average Draft Position: 2.39 @DollarAndADream 3rd HELSINKI TITANS Markus King Average Draft Position: 3.69 @Kendrick 4th SEATTLE BEARS Alexsei Federov Average Draft Position: 4.47 @Banackock 5th DAVOS DYNAMO Shawn Gretzky Average Draft Position: 4.56 @TheLastOlympian07 6th SEATTLE BEARS Hudson Abbott Average Draft Position: 4.94 @Bushito 7th HELSINKI TITANS Pablo Average Draft Position: 6.5 @Pablo 8th DAVOS DYNAMO Rudolph Schmeckeldorf Average Draft Position: 7.6428571 @Corco 9th CALGARY WRANGLERS Verner Reinholdt Average Draft Position: 7.6428570 @Devise 10th CALGARY WRANGLERS Vernon Von Axelberry Average Draft Position: 8.67 @BobertZ Corco 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/39084-claimed-an-average-mock-draft/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something you clearly wouldn't ever be. That's cute, HSK G1 lead the league with a .959 save percentage when you were pulled. And how the heck did you start all 72 games this season after what Beketov wrote and the resim. I'm surprised Higgins started you over HSK G1.

Commissioner Beketov 9,101 Posted April 2, 2017 Commissioner Share Posted April 2, 2017 Helsinki drafts King then picks me up in FA and dumps Moon on waivers where he belongs. Gets an actual starter the next two seasons and a goalie ready to take over immediately after. Acquires first ever 4-peat and makes history. Moon cries himself to sleep. The end.
