Where there is a big difference though is that Tzuyu (who wound up going fifth overall) was predominantly a welfare player, meaning that those below him found it easy enough to catch and then surpass her in TPE. Sullivan on the other hand is earning max TPE every week and looks set to continue in that manner for the foreseeable future which will make it near impossible for anyone below him to catch up to his TPE before the Season 64 Draft starts. Sullivan will join last season's second overall pick Joseph McWolf on the blueline to form what could potentially become one of the league's best ever defenseman pairings. 2 – HC Davos Dynamo Mark Gebauer - C Potentially the first shock pick of this draft sees the player currently ranked fifth in TPE and not currently the highest TPE at his position going second overall. While Gebauer currently is 35 TPE behind Zabby, he has gained 40 TPE on Zabby since the first weekly rankings and while Zabby has been a very solid earner, he has never earned 12 capped TPE in a week, something that Gebauer has done in each of the last three weeks. Piotr Jerwa would also be a good option for Davos here at number two, but with two defensemen already on the roster who may not be moving (Alvaro Jokinen is a devout Dynamo player while the trade price on Jacob Smith may be too high right now given his earning rate), it may make more sense for Davos to look towards building up their forward core for the future. 3 – Toronto Legion Ryan Zabby - C To kick things off, if Toronto do not win the lottery and therefore can't draft Ryan Sullivan Jr., it would not surprise me one bit if this pick was traded off to another team. It's pretty unclear looking at Toronto's roster what the intention is for the future especially with the uncertain future of Sebastien Ironside as we still don't know if he will be able to play for the Legion next season, if at all. If it winds up that the Legion do lose Ironside, they are going to need a center, and Ryan Zabby can come in and be a solid earner for the team who should make the pro roster immediately. There are some players with less TPE but earning at a slightly greater rate than Zabby, but not to the same extent that Gebauer currently is. 4 – New York Americans Elias Dahlberg - LW With the Americans selecting Sullivan, that gives the team a full lines worth of actives on both the forward line and the defensive line. The difference between the two lines however is that while they have two defenseman that currently look set to be earning max capped TPE per week for the foreseeable future, that isn't the case on the forward line as Scott Shawinganen and Roctrion King are consistently around the 6 capped TPE mark per week. Therefore they may look here to someone who could potentially one day replace either of these two on the first line and, while he's quite a few TPE off of replacing them just yet, Elias Dahlberg is currently displaying the potential required to do just that. The last three weeks, Dahlberg has earned 10 capped TPE per week, so is just one weekly activity away from consistently making the maximum in capped TPE per week and given that he has been one of the standout VHLM prospects this season, his current build is clearly having success in the sim engine. 5 – Quebec City Meute Piotr Jerwa - D While the lineup that they currently have should be capable of still competing in Season 64, the Meute have some potential holes in the future that they will want to have cover for. They will either want to draft a center to replace the retiring Sergei Komarov and perhaps even potentially jump straight on the third line (given that Rauno Palo's build has had little offensive success in the sim) or a defenseman given that Colton Rayne and Casey Jones will be in their final season in Season 64 and they still don't have Samuel Gate locked up to a contract for next season either. While the loss of Komarov will be a more pressing need to fill, I think they will look to address that in other ways and instead bring in Piotr Jerwa to make sure that they at least have one young talent ready to jump in on defense once Rayne and Jones retire. 6 – Calgary Wranglers Brick Wahl - G Given that the Wranglers are the only team that do not currently have a long-term plan for the goalie position in place, some people may believe that taking a goalie this high would be too early. However, this is Calgary's only pick in the first two rounds and, while this is a solid draft, I doubt that Wahl would fall quite as far as the late-third round selection that Calgary owns. Calgary are in a situation where they can continue to give it a go next season, but with Louth and Stopko retiring after that season concludes, it may be worth it to start looking towards the future after Season 64, and that would start by bringing in Brick Wahl in this draft who, as a player who regularly hits the 12 capped TPE mark, will be more than ready to fill in once Stopko retired and frees up Bushito to make another first class skating prospect. 7 – Riga Reign Eric Parker - D Like with Toronto, it wouldn't surprise me to see this pick traded later down the line given that the Reign have already had to trade players this season to let them have decent playing time, and they have three other players set to move up from the VHLM next season as well. If they do stick around though, I'll have them take a defenseman as, while they do already have plenty of young talents there like Ryan Kastelic and Shawn Glade, they don't currently have any defensemen in the VHLM. With that being said Eric Parker will give them another young prospect on defense who can aid the team and perhaps even make the jump to the VHL immediately given that he's a solid 8 capped TPE per week player. 8 – HC Davos Dynamo Gucci Garrop - C Garrop's current TPE level is deceptive of how much TPE that he's currently earned as, while he's listed as having 125 TPE, I've counted that once he updates all his missing TPE from previous weeks, Garrop will at the very least be at 151 TPE, which is good enough to be the fourth highest TPE player in this draft class. While having not updating in a while may be a cause of concern for some General Managers, Garrop has as of late been earning around eight capped TPE per week, sometimes stretching to ten with reviewing, so it's not that he isn't active, it's just that the numbers don't currently show it. 9 – New York Americans Joel Ylonen - C For very much the same reasons that I had the Americans selecting Dahlberg with the fourth overall pick, I have the Americans selecting Joel Ylonen here with the ninth overall pick. Ylonen has been earning more and more capped TPE as the weeks have progressed and is one 150 word VHL.com article away from acheiving max cap for the first time ever this week. If he continues that earning, he will make a good challenger for Scott Shawinganen's spot as first-line center. 10 – HC Davos Dynamo John Madden - RW Madden has a similar story to that of Sidney Crosby last season, he was a player eligible for the VHLM Draft but wound up going undrafted and, after being signed post-draft, has gone on to become a very active player who has every chance of becoming a first-round prospect with continued activity, having hit ten capped TPE in the last two weeks and is a VHL.com article away from doing the same this week. Combined with Gebauer and Garrop, this gives Davos a lot of good young forward talent to work with in the future. 11 – Helsinki Titans Pat Svoboda – RW This might be very bold given that Svoboda only joined the league last week, but in his first week in the league, he earned the maximum 12 weekly capped TPE, something that very few players in this draft class have done. Should he keep that up, he'll definitely wind up in contention for a first round selection further down the line and will be a great addition down the line for a Titans team that already has very strong young forwards. 12 – Toronto Legion Jagger Philliefan - D While defense is not neccessarily a need for the Legion, it seems like Philliefan would like to play with Rush teammates Zabby and Nathan N if possible and, given that I have Zabby already going in this draft, I'll have them take Philliefan who isn't a super high TPE earner (usually earning around 6 capped TPE per week) he has been consistent with earning around that mark. There is also the option that Toronto realise that Rift (who to my knowledge has only been earning 6 TPE per week) isn't neccessarily the best long-term option as goalie and move him to forward and instead draft Finn Davison who has proven to be a very high TPE earner, getting at least 10 capped TPE in the last four weeks. 13 – New York Americans Kyson Blake - LW Like Svoboda, Blake hasn't been in the league for a long time, but he's already demonstrated he has the potential to become a great player for a team, as last week he earned ten capped TPE. This also gives New York two full lines of offensive talent, which should set them up very well for the future. 14 – Quebec City Meute Evgeni Komarov - D The Meute already have the older Komarov on the team and with him retiring before this draft, they can now replace him with the younger Komarov, Evgeni. He's pretty consistently earning seven capped TPE per week which will be enough to become a solid contributor for a team and will look to fill the same role that Jerwa will for the team. 15 – Riga Reign Finn Davison - G Because why not? We already discussed earlier that the Reign have already had problems with having too many players and at this point in the draft, there isn't really anyone available who would challenge anyone on their top two lines for places on the team in the near future, so why not draft a goalie that's earning at a very strong rate who won't count against the cap through the backup goalie rule and give him opportunities to play with one of the league's strongest teams from day one. 16 – Seattle Bears Dan Baillie - LW With no active prospects in the VHLM and McAllister retiring, probably the best option for Seattle would be a forward prospect. Nathan N has the highest TPE of those available, but has only really been earning 4 TPE per week as of late, so Baillie, who has been earning 6 capped TPE per week, would likely be the better long-term option. @Alfred Corey @Camcall @Advantage @JSS @WHEELsnipePARTY @Molholt @IceSK @NathanN @RyanZabby @Philliefan @wiggo @JG10 @Froobydoo @Steroid Monster @majesiu @Cyberwolf32 @kerryj13 @Radio @wcats @hookemhorns @mjl3475 @ATaylor27_ @NightHawk_787 @Escott @NewtonianBoots @VenomBlast500 @WTB @Owen Borah @Bailey @TMG1017 @crazytexanfan @bhs7902 @Austin Kenobi @austendeven @ShadierGalaxy100 @Erik Flyyn @Wololo @Saclord @ihlevi @Slipperybutter @jackt815 @Kip Baier @FenPo @#LOLER @Big thic z @Basehockey @The_nameless_man @Eparker24 @TimNig @IniquitY @Alexander McMaster @DucksFan64 @Progamer5432137 @Rollzey @Kotkaniemi sucks @JonnyU95 @CurtisG93 @JORANNEXTDOOR22 @malone on coke @Lizard_Wizard @Salemsix @Tiler94 @Eddyconqs @Charles Blades @Nykonax @Esso2264 @TheDrunkDrew @Brock Boeser @Pwest7788 @auston matthews #34 @Julien Venezia @TheEpicDuck @Johnthegod21 @Brandon87 @xela @Require The Demi God @Lare @Alexhockey8 @Isaac46362 @dora @Hersheybears @Sturg @Dario44 @Zeniaz @NikEhlers27 @Hutch445 @Maladus42 @Mattmacleod63 @BladeMaiden @hitmess @Bobby Power @Koutsi @vesku842 @Sova @Ashvinan Sivasambu @wola @Rocketman04 @DilIsPickle @DingmanGeorge @Kramer @Sohva @Poptart @Jayden Bender @Gooningitup @Fowll @Natedawg6413 @LemonPig @Savoire Faire @Levangy @Swintzy Sauce19 @K13R4N @Quietknight @tequbs @TMI @Wulfen @FlyersLord29 @Pier-Luc Besner @Jon @Kachur @JaysFan26 @LQuinn @theMooseKing @NickSunderbruch @Lancelot @dylanlib @Dylan Donald @expensivebaton @caltroit_red_flames @ocbeezilla @jonnysauce22 @StamkosFan @DangerGolding @kayfabe @Santeri koskinen @Ninetyfourgoalie @Tangledgoat34 @TPEWhore @SwagSloth @edonnelly30 @Cj. @Bigwood17 @TheMemeMaestro Edited November 9, 2018 by Tagger Esso2264 and McWolf 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
