  1. My plans for world domination are moving along quite well.
  2. While most had discounted Team World as an "also ran" team in the World Juniors this season, their performance shocked many as their efforts led to many hard-fought and hard-won games throughout the tournament. In the end, this resulted in a silver medal finish for Team World as they fell to Team Europe by a score of 5-1, their only tally coming from Daring Do (her 4th goal of the elimination round). It was an impressive finish for the team that many had predicted would go nowhere in the tournament due to a lack of depth at just about every position. Even the finals were close as Team Europe only lead the shot total by a ratio of 28 to 27 - a legitimately hard fought contest by both sides if there ever was one. In the end both teams went home happy - Team World that they managed a medal despite an extremely slow start out of the gate, and team Europe that they were bringing home the promised gold.
  3. Daring Do Sees VHL Success Toronto has started the season strong with a nice 4-0 out of the gate as the Legion sit atop the VHL early The Toronto Legion have seen nothing but success as they start out season 59 with the kind of success that any team would be jealous of. With a nice 4-0 through four games played, the Legion have found the chemistry that alluded them the previous season as the team hopes their turnaround from last season will be swift. A big part of this turnaround has been the addition of rookies Dexter Lane, Aackckqz Ky, Verner Reinholdt, Bo Boeser, Daring Do, and the recently acquired AK47. Daring Do joined the Legion after just two season with the Saskatoon Wild. Drafted the offseason prior, she was thought to be a risky pick in her draft class. Even so, while projected to go at 14th overall she jumped three spots in the draft to be taken by the Toronto Legion with the first pick of the second round - 11th overall. Since then she worked to make a name for herself in the VHLM as she played alongside Jake Scheel and Gabriel McAllister as well as defender Ay Ay Ron for the Saskatoon Wild and won the cup at the season's end. But when the year came to a close, she moved on to the next step of her career - the VHL and the Toronto Legion, and it remained to be seen what that would mean for her career. As it turns out, it's meant good things. Through four games played she's already notched 3 goals (including a recent two goal game) and an assist on Toronto's second line. Sporting a +10 with 10 hits, her numbers have been strong for a rookie, and while her numbers obviously can't compete with the likes of Calgary's Felix Savard, they're still a good sign that her two-way style of play is going to translate well to the VHL despite having to make the jump to what is a much faster and more skilled style of gameplay than she was used to seeing down in the VHL. So what should we expect to see from Daring Do as the season (and her career) move forward? It's hard to say. Her hits total is certainly lower than we might have expected to see based on what we saw in our second VHLM season, but at the same time she's scoring at a much faster pace than we saw in the VHLM - potentially in part due to not having to play alongside McAllister anymore. But what's for certain is that if she continues to work in practice, she could have one hell of a career in front of her.
  4. Upvoted all! Going to avoid commenting since they're all team-specific subs and none of them are my team
  5. I will totally take silver. And a goal in the finals on top of it!
  6. I just don't know the names of any VHL teams, just VHLM ones. Even my own, Toronto...lol
  7. Totally at a loss for 4.
  8. After making it to the finals and falling short last year, Daring Do will be leaving the Saskatoon Wild franchise as a VHLM Champion, and she couldn't be prouder. "This has been a dream of mine since I joined the league, and I'm beyond thrilled that I had the chance to do it with such a great group of teammates. Everyone on this team has become like a family to me, and winning the cup - whether we did it in 4 games or even if it had taken more, just feels so much sweeter because I got to do it with all of these guys alongside me. From my linemates, McAllister and Scheel, to the blue line with Ay Ay Ron and murguy in goal, this has been a great organization to be a part of and I couldn't be prouder to call myself a VHLM champion with the Saskatoon Wild.
  9. Broooooooooooms What a series, and what a win. Love this team.
  10. Winner: Number of games: 5 Total goals scored: 32 Who gets the Cup winning goal? Daring Do Series leader in points: Gabriel McAllister Series leader in goals: Gabriel McAllister Series leader in assists: Ay Ay Ron
  11. I can't tell which team I'm supposed to be annoyed at in this thread.
