Hey guys, In honor of Vibez, I took it upon myself to create an award in his name. This award will be completely separate from the regular NHL awards and separate from the NHL award committee. This award will include a three-man committee composed of myself, @Akonvict21 , & @oRecki . It is my under my observance that his passing hit home the hardest for them so it only makes sense to have them join me in selecting the right recipient to represent Vibez himself. This award will go out to a member of the community whose thrive to win is evident throughout the course of the season, has a team-first mentality, and respects/abide by the LG Code of Conduct on and off the ice, like Vibez has done season after season amongst us all. Towards the end of the NHL regular season is when the award winner will be announced. I have not spoken to @Tris10 about making it a LG sponsored award so unless he would like to, there will be no trophy points distributed or anything from LG's side to this award. @Tris10 or @LG McDonald if you would like to get this LG sponsored we can talk about making it happen, would be awesome to show support for it. I'm sure what will go on in some people's mind is "Chief doesn't even abide by the LG CoC so who is he to distribute the award" and my response to this is that I'm doing this in celebration of Vibez's life and so that his legacy will always be remembered. So all pasts aside and personal vendettas, let's support and celebrate the man Vibez was in and out of LGHL through this award for many more seasons to come. Without further a due, here is the award custom made: (Credit to @King-Shadow & @OdessaSteps) Cheers, Chief.
Awesome award & Idea, chief and Co. Great to honor his legacy and alot of class shown from the LG community of his passing. Didn't know him personally but spoke to him many times since season 7 about in season transactions etc. Was all around nice guy. Glad to see the community come together for this. - Havoc
I absolutely love the idea! Great work. Didn't know Vibezz all that well, but perhaps LG should implement an annual Vibezz Selflessness Memorial Award into each season to pay tribute and ensure that his memory lives on throughout the generations of LGHL. Could even still be voted on by a selection committee (in this case you, Akon and Recki).
Ohh I love it Vibez was such a great personality that will be greatly missed in the NHL community. Lovely act of union by you three and I think it will be an award that the winner will be amazingly proud off.
While I like the idea I'd personally like to see LG rename the Jack Adams Award after him. Vibez loved managing.
Can't see why not. At least on the PSN side. Xbox made up a secondary award for management of the year that picked the most surprising team of the year (good not bad). At the very minimum PS4 could introduce the same award imo.
