[Spade18 1,305]

 

Here ye, here ye.  Come hear the good news which is a break down of the TPE each team in the VHLM has.  Being the stocking league for the VHL, it's always good to see which teams are improving, and how TPE effects league structure.

 

Week 1:

Team                                             Total TPE   (Increased TPE)              Average TPE per player          League Position                 Top TPE Earner

1. Ottawa Lynx                                  1067                 (0)                             88.91   (12 players)                            1                     RW - Lavar Ball, TPE: 165 (QUE)

2. Oslo Storm                                    948                 (0)                               63.2     (15 players)                             5                    LW - Ivan Morozov, TPE: 199 (24 Banked)(CGY)

5. Las Vegas Aces                            692                  (0)                             40.71    (17 players)                             3                    G - Marcel St-Laurent, TPE: 135 (QUE)

2. Oslo Storm                                    948                 (0)                               63.2     (15 players)                             3                    LW - Ivan Morozov, TPE: 199 (24 Banked)(CGY)

League Total TPE                            4280                (+74)                         60.28   (71 players)

 

So we have some changes and some failings for the rosters to be updated.  

 

Ottawa has had a roster update, and even with signing 2 free agents, still drop a roster spot.  It hasn't hurt their standings as of late.  They still hold the #1 spot in TPE, Average TPE, and in the league standings.  Having now done this for 3 seasons, one of the observations I have made is that the teams which preform well in the regular season and beyond always have a high average TPE, making an argument for the quality, not quantity way of building a team.  Even if a team has a high total TPE, higher average TPE teams tend to out preform.   Ottawa has a new Top TPE earner in David Kiaskov @Exlaxchronicles.  Look for this team to make a serious play off push, and possible break the @Beaviss curse this year!

 

Oslo I don't believe has been updated since my last write up.  They have, however, turned their season around in a serious way.  As of the first few games, the Storm were in dead last, and things were looking dreary.  Since then, the Storm have powered up the standings and having played the most games of any team in the VHLM this year, sit one point behind the 2nd place Aces.  Look for this team to make some moves as the rosters are updated.

 

The Yukon Rush have had a roster update. But after a loaded draft, the Rush were hoping for a little better results.  They are in 3rd place as far as TPE is concerned, but they have dropped from 2nd to 4th in league standings This team has lots of young talent and could turn it around come playoff time, but after so many draft picks, it's hard to not be worried with the production shown so far.

 

The Saskatoon Wild's roster has not been updated, and their team has bottomed out.  They have the smallest roster in the league, and I know their TPE leader is actually playing in the VHL which is skewing their TPE stats a bit.  But 0 wins 16 games in is hard to see anytime.  They have the fewest games played, so they have, perhaps, the most time to make up ground.  But this season is not looking good for the wildmen.

 

The Las Vegas Ace's roster has not been updated either, but they continue to be a bit of an anomaly. Last in Total TPE, Last in average TPE, and 2nd place in the league.  Strong goaltending is most likely the answer here, and as updated get rolled out I would not be surprised to see this team make moves on Ottawa in a bid for 1st place this season.

 

As the rosters get updated more, I'm sure we'll see a bit more movement as far as TPE is concerned, but for now, we buckle up and battle through the middle of the season.

 

As always, thanks for reading.

 

Best,
