eaglesfan036 4,605 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 (edited) Much Needed Shakeup For the past few seasons, there have only really been four competing teams, and a real lack of trades as all four of those teams fancied their odds of winning the cup and did not want to give up any of their players. Finally, it appears as though the competing teams will change. Stockholm and New York are likely looking at rebuilds, and teams like Calgary, Toronto, Davos, and who knows who else could be looking to begin competing. I've only just started having trade discussions today, and there is a ton to keep up with. I actually had to make myself a google docs sheet to keep up with all of the offers. This is great news for the VHL though, as I think this offseason is going to be one of the most exciting in recent memory trade wise! Then I've also taken an initial look at free agents and it should be a decent free agent market, with a few young players who might be looking to join a squad long term. It will be a pivotal offseason for many teams. New Commissioner @Will has been pretty much inactive all summer, and rumor has it that a lady friend is the reason why. Everyone is allowed to have a real life and I wish him well, but I am pretty sad to have a great VHL member not around much, and personally I always enjoyed chatting with him. Not sure if he is remaining on blue team or what, but best of luck Draper. To make up for this loss, @Smarch has been hired, and I think he is an excellent fit! He was great to work with when we were both VHLM commisioners, and he took on a lot of responsibility this season in setting up the 10th anniversary, so thank you and good luck Smarch! Updated Forum The VHL is copying off of facebook with new ways to like posts, which is a good thing. We now get to have "reactions" to posts, like laughing, frowning faces, etc instead of just a simple like. This is a fun new addition that I will enjoy. Also, chat seems to be working much smoother lately, so that is good. The only thing I don't really like is that my skin got changed with the update, I forget what it was but I think it was a darker skin. All we need to do is move locker rooms to the top and we will be all set! New Jobs Filled Congrats to @Corco on becoming a new VHLM commish, apparently he was quite involved in the VHLM so I hope he does a great job. Also, I am too lazy to look, but someone stepped in to be the EU updater for Brovy/Kesler, so thank you to whoever that was. We also have two new GM spots that will soon be announced, and I am happy to see those spots filled as well.
