Was Jack Sound actually that good? He has to be the worst player with a trophy named in his honor, right?

 

 

 

 

(Though I guess maybe that's fitting for the award, considering it's the one that will most likely have "bad" players winning it)

you can't have opinions here street. its illegal

One of three names that first came to my mind tbh, along with Edwin Encarnacion and Olivier Scarlett.

High praise to be in with those two :)

The league just went full stupid. The name for the defensive award might trump the NHLs dumb decision inducting Clark Gillies in the HOF

Something needed to be announced since this was changed basically half a season ago. Unfortunately the name is probably not ideal but it wasn’t discussed enough. Every few seasons we discuss changing names so it’ll come up in those discussions as well.

Apparently I missed the discussion for this in the BoG.

 

You had posts in that discussion topic, you simply stopped posting once the names were suggested...

Correction

Reports coming from VHL Headquarters today are indicating a breach in protocol regarding the recent announcement of new award names. It would appear that someone changed the content of the PR team's announcement prior to the announcement being made; resulting in the wrong name being applied to the Top Defensive Defenseman award. The award was thusly, and inaccurately, named the Jack Sound award. It is unclear at this time who made the change but it is believed to be a relative of Mr. Sound trying to continue his family member's legacy.

 

In light of this the league would like to officially announce the proper name for the award: The Jake Wylde Award. The league would like to apologize to Mr. Wylde and the fans for the confusion regarding this name. Both Mr. Wylde's statistics and agency better reflect the purpose of the award and the league would like to officially congratulate him on receiving this honour.

Definitely did not shrink that logo as much as I thought I did; oh well. Wanted to have a bit of fun with this change.

 

Point is, we've made the change. Seemed best to do it before the award was given out. I've updated the OP. Congrats @STZ on yet another accomplishment. Thanks everyone who pointed out how ridiculous our choice was. we may not have had the proper time to discuss it originally but we did this time and that's because you pushed us o make a change that is better for the league.

^takes credit even though it wasn't him that changed it.

No need to antagonize him. He was one of the ones pushing for it and (I think) the first one to bring up Wylde. Point is it got done, that’s the important thing.
