Competition!

[Phil 5,129]

I haven’t really checked out my competition, but @Devise had mentioned that he thinks I have a shot at a Boulet this season. I was baffled because, let’s face it, I’m a 500 TPE second-liner in my third season, and Unassisted and Maxwell, two of my teammates, also have a lot of TPE in checking. 

 

One of my goals with Shankly was to win a Boulet. 2, actually, but I’ve never made a power-forward so I would be happy with one. Especially now that I don’t have a VHL job and I don’ do Point Tasks every week. 

 

But with the change in the update scale it will be interesting to see how this distributes the checking and scoring amongst VHLians. Obviously it will boil down to circumstances and team dynamics, but I’m gunning for 95 in checking and strength and I’m at 90 in scoring and passing, so hopefully that’s enough to give me a shot at it this season. Even if not, I was never expecting a Boulet in just my third season.

 

In other news, my next player will be entering the Season 56 draft and I shall create him or her at the trade deadline.

The VHL misses Parechkin. Shankly gonna Shank though.

 

It's funny because I basically tried to model Parechkin after Scott Boulet. Same weight, although not 6'5", Parechkin was 6'3". Zach P was pretty successful, all things considered. I won a couple of Boulets, but I was hoping for a 3rd last season, but beat out by AK47. A couple of guys had stronger Boulet seasons than Parechkin, but Parechkin gave me a lot of false hope when he was running away with it early on....only to get killed in the 2nd half.
