Frank 5,058 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 (edited) Quebec City Meute VS. HC Davos Dynamo Season 56 VHL Finals Preview Rusty Trombone tries a rap around on Apollo Skye during the Season 56 Regular Season. Regular Season Match-Up In the regular season Davos took the series 5-3 with two of their victories coming in a shootout win and over time win. All regular season wins were quite lopsided for both sides. The Meute owned the Dynamo early on and then even before the acquisition of Petenis, Davos seemed to turn things around. With the acquisition of Petenis, Davos looks to have the depth to over power the quality of players the Meute possess. @hedgehog337 @JardyB10 @Smarch @jRuutu @tfong @Will @Green @Strtlght @solas @Bushito @TheLastOlympian07 @Pablo @Ahma @BOOM Key Head to Head Match-Up One of the two goalies will be hoisting the cup shortly. @Velevra @STZ Right now I'm predicting that the goalies will be the deciding factor in the series. Both goalies are practically the same age and same TPE level. Both are franchise goalies in their primes who have had ups and downs but can be regularly counted on to steal their team wins. Apollo Skye currently boasts the best goalie stats in the playoffs with Degrath following closely behind. Degrath has played more games but over came the offensive catalysts on the Riga Reign. Who do you think will have the higher save percentage at the end of the series? (reply below for the fun of it) Line Up Comparisons Meute Forwards Pietro Maximoff - Lukas Muller - Pierre Gaudette John Locke - Fook Yu Defense Fabio Jokinen - Hudson Abbott Goalie(s) Apollo Skye Dynamo Forwards Rusty Trombone - Shawn Gretzky - Diana Maxwell Motherfucker Sharpe - Peter Quill -Takashi Fujimoto Defense Lee King Snatch - Diego Jokinen Pablo - Guntis Petenis Grigory Kopraikov Goalie(s) Rhett Degrath Just by comparing the rosters above the depth on Davos is substantial. Quebec has the higher TPE earners based off mean. But Fujimoto, Gretzky, Trombone and Sharpe are all hovering around that 500 TPE sweet spot. I think Davos might be too much for Quebec to handle if they take penalties, once the CPU's play their minutes that will be advantage Davos. Looking at player overalls, Quebec again boasts higher overalls. I think the Dynamo depth will be too much to over come though as we've seen with New York after their two cup wins, star power doesn't always win cups. The Meute took them down far sooner then I thought they would. What Past Series Have Told Us? Absolutely nothing. If the Season 43 Seattle Bears can win anyone can @DollarAndADream can agree with me on this. STHS tends to be a bit random in the post season. After all Felix Savard is currently the leading scorer. Last season Quebec lost to Helsinki in the finals even though they boasted a better regular season record. This season Riga lost to Davos after boasting a inferior regular season record. What does all this mean? I have no fucking clue. So this should be a fun series and hopefully a close one that does it justice. Series prediction is Davos in 7 Games, I think their depth and even goaltending will be our (the Meute's) demise. Good luck to everyone involved!

I also was using the original black draft skin for way too long, before I realized there was a refined VHL anniversary version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLastOlympian07 2,388 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Review Hindsight is 20/20 and I think you Frank played the good reverse psychology game. Said we would win so they would win. Clever. Anyway, great article although I am not sure whats going on with the formatting near the end. Other than that it was a good insight at both team's strengths and weaknesses heading into the series. Hopefully this all changes coming into this season with Calgary vs Quebec if not next season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
