GRZ's ''Dream Team''

[GRZ 179]

ya that's right I'm doing a media spot this week cuz this theme is a banger. I could have gone many routes - picking my favorite D.C teammates and slapping them all on a line, my favorite Riga teammates that I played with.... but ultimately I decided to go way back and present to you all the monster cheat-code line that once used to "dominate" and "terrorise" people in the VHLM, from speeding around the defenders to crunching the enemy forwards into the boards so hard they couldn't stand up for a week, and lastly to deking the enemy goaltenders:

LW - Hans Gruber (@TheFlash) - Some might know him more of a center but a little known fact is that he started out as a winger in the VHLM and thats because when he joined the Reapers we didn't have a playmaking center and we were overloaded with wingers and he agreed to swap to C in order to help out the team, just that should show you what a gem this guy was, legend.

C - Walter Clements (@cpetrella) - 6'8 250lb absolute unit of a player, steady two-way player, led Philadelphia through their "legendary" inaugural season straight to a cup win the next season in his 2nd season

RW - John Frostbeard (@FrostBeard) - No intro needed for this guy, he was there alongside Clements for the cup run and more widely known in the VHL for his tenure with the Seattle Bears and their 2x continental cup run, it was an honor playing alongside him in D.C and Philadelphia.


D - Charlie Paddywagon (@DMaximus) - Got more attention towards the later stages of his career but I can promise you he was just as good in the VHLM, Very reliable two-way defender, huge teamplayer and also a big stats guy.

D - MORPHEUS DESTRUCTIOS (@Abaddon) - If you don't know who this guy is just by hearing his name.... you've missed out, one of the scariest and most hard-hitting players I've ever played with, this guy doesn't ask questions twice before nailing you into the boards and then punching you to add insult to injury.


G - Wendy Kandee Cain (@SlashACM) - This might confuse some people, looking at his player profile you don't see Philadelphia anywhere but that's because he was traded in their first season for assets, but the real reapers know who this guy is, helped Philadelphia get their first franchise wins and overall made the locker-room a very cool and funny place to hang out in.

Looking at it back, no wonder this lineup never existed after the VHLM, the league recognized that it's basically a cheat code or a hack in simonT, if this roster met up in the VHL, every cup would be theirs forever(or at least until they all retired)
Every one of these players were not only good on the ice but also really nice locker-room additions, everyone added their own element in the Philadelphia squad.

Claiming for theme week 11/10

Hahahaha Love it. The VHL had to erase us to save their record books is how I see it.

 

I also noticed that about Slash when I was taking a walk down VHLMemory Lane awhile back. Odd that it doesn’t show Philly.
