Drafted 3 Times!

[gregreg 930]

What a night! During the S74 VHL Entry Draft we saw what I call history. My player Leo Strauss was drafted three times, yes you read that correctly THREE TIMES. Before the draft I had said that I didn’t wanted to be drafted because I want to hit free agency and pick where I went. Something that you just don’t see in the VHL very often. It had nothing to do with the GMs or the teams themselves because truly I don’t care who I play for but I was at best a late second rounder so it’s not like I was a star. 

 

As the draft began it slowly got through two rounds and I wasn’t selected, so as I sat in the discord I made it clear I thought it be funny to see myself not get draft. It kinda looked good for a bit as players with less TPE where getting selected and I started to fall. I was having a good time kinda just sitting and watching to see if my dream could come true but at pick forty my stupid dream died… 

The LA Stars thought they got a steal and selected me but that’s where the true fun began! My disappoint was real and was expressed in the draft discussion that I didn’t want to be draft. I said I wouldn’t sign and I didn’t want to join the Stars. Their GM wanted nothing to do with my bullshit and with out even discussing it with me released me seconds after getting drafted. Just like that I was put back into the available players to be selected, a mistake that was missed by the controlling party. So with that in the 4th round the London United selected me 54th overall and it didn’t end there, Riga who had been apart of the joke the entire night decided to end the night by drafting me for the third time at pick 66. 

 

Like a lot of people said this is a trivia question in the making and I’m glad I can still add to the history of the league all these years later.
