VHL NLH 21 League

 

With the release of NHL 21, I have been wondering what it would be like to have members of the VHL and VHLM play in a league on that game. I think it could be a fun experience especially if you were to bring your sim players to life and play as them in actual games against other members. This is mostly just an idea that will most likely never happen due to people having lives and all that. With that being said I’m still going to go into how it could be set up and run.

 

First off you’d need some sort of sign-up page. This would show the people in charge of how many people are interested in actually participating so they can put together the necessary amount of teams for the first season. The teams will be based on current VHL teams with the same names and locations as well as logos if possible. Having every single team would be impossible if the participation isn’t very high since it would be better to have a full human team and not a team with a bunch of AI on it because AI is overpowered. Some VHL teams would need to be cut most likely but that’s not my problem. The teams and the league as a whole would work similarly to the VHL as each team would have a GM with the option of an AGM. It would also have a small team of owners who would set up scheduling and keep track of the standings. 

 

The GM role for each team would be a voluntary position. Current team GMs don’t have to pick the team they run either and can choose another if desired but each team current GM would have the first pick over their own team so no one can thief it. The owner’s board would be selected by everyone or by whoever was to start it up. 

 

Players that choose to sign up would be placed in a draft and the GM from the teams would participate in picking players similar to the VHL draft. Trades will be allowed and there is no payment system so technically a team could make a god squad but that’s also not my problem lol. If that does become an issue I’m sure someone can come up with a solution. Each team will require its own goalie since the AI goalies in this game are insane and can't be beaten as a human goalie can. Each team must fill up all six spots on their roster and can have two reserves. For a team to be eligible for a game they must have a minimum of four players on the ice. If they can not field that the team forfeits the game and loses automatically 2-0. If you start with 4 and lose one from the connection or they have to leave that’s ok but no less than 3 or you will be forced to quit and the score will be 2-0.

 

Since this will be a direct connection to the VHL & VHLM having some sort of reward for the winning team in uncapped TPE could help people earn some extra tpe on the side. Using the VHL system for this would work just fine.

 

If this gets enough attention and people want this to happen I’m more than happy to start this up myself. I think to make this be possible we would need a minimum of 30 people to want to be apart of this so we could field 5 teams.

Sounds like a great idea. It would be a pain getting it up and running but once that has happened it should all run pretty smoothly. 

I don't like the idea of TPE for something that is off the site.

 

Also how would you create your player could they be 99 overall if you wanted or would you set a limit?
