1. The VHL Draft goes tonight (Monday), and the Legion are picking at 15. Would you draft for positional need at that pick, or just take the best player available? It's past the draft but when a team like us are competing and normally trading the future, its always preferred to go with best player available. 2. With the talk of new contracts in pro sports in a world of increasing salary caps, if you were one season away from free agency, would you rather take the sure money ahead of that season or chance a bigger payday the following off-season? As an example, the Dallas Cowboys are trying to extend Dak Prescott for current market value ($50m-$55m per season), but it seems like Dak wants to wait until next off-season for a new deal when QB salaries may eclipse $60m per season. It depends on age but I wouldn't risk it, especially in the NFL. It's easy to get injured for the season in the NFL and then not get paid. It makes sense why players are holding out. 3. After losing Joel Castle in the off-season to retirement, can Toddly Bobbly carry the load in the crease and pick up where Castle left off? He has some solid games for us last year. It's hard to fill the void that such an impactful player like Castle leaves, but Bobbly has a lot of promise so we hope to see him excel this year. 4. With Robert Downey Jr. being revealed as the casting choice for Victor von Doom in the MCU, which other actor/actress would you like to see come out of retirement to re-join a franchise in a different role? It would be cool to see Ian McKellen have a cameo on the new Rings of Power series. 5. Now that VHL Free Agency has opened, which team has improved the most so far for next season? I haven't really paid much attention to this to be honest. I'm really excited for the Legion this year so that's all i've been focussing on. 6. Have you played any of the Grand Theft Auto games? If so, which ones, and are you hyped for GTA VI coming out next year? If it comes out next year.. I do love playing those games although I've never beaten it. Maybe this time around I will.

It’s been quite the career for Jimi Jax so far. Starting off with a major VHLE disappointment with Oslo, he knew how hard it was to win a full championship. From the day he stepped foot in the Legion locker room in S90, along the rest of the core with Mac Atlas, Joel Castle and Baby Bob, Toronto has been one of the most competitive teams in the League. Making the conference finals in all years but S93, including two finals appearances and one win in S91. In that span, Jax has led the team regular season scoring – including a monster year in S93 which had him taking home multiple awards that include the Slobodzian and the Boulet. Heading into his final year, Jax would trade all of them away for just one more Continental Cup “I was pretty happy about my season last year – but super disappointed in the playoffs.” – Jax stated after the first day of training camp. “Those awards don’t mean anything if we don’t win – I have one more chance to grab another and that’s the goal for this squad this season. The Legion kickoff both Atlas and Jax’s farewell tour on Wednesday.

happy bday vhl

The jersey changes here are spot on - I know its just logo swaps but the placement of the logos are perfect. The background is one of the coolest backgrounds Ive seen in a sig here, did you draw it up? I notice the lighthouse back there so I was curious. The text is also amazing, from the font, to the stroke, to the blue/white color mix across the whole name. The colors as whole across the background, text and renders blend together so well. The logo on the bottom right with a bit of shadow is also a nice touch. This is something you would see in an actual NHL teams promo - its very nice. 9.75/10

Love the lighting on this sig, especially how you have the yellow glow around the render. The last name text blends in super well with how you have it lined up wit the yellow strip in the background, and the first name text blends with your classic half-color over the jersey placement. The jersey change is perfect, the Wolves logo does not seem out of place at all, and works really well with a Panthers jersey template since both logos are the same shape. I also like that while the jersey is gray-scaled down, you kept the skin its normal color (i,e, you didn't just desaturate the whole thing). Always good sigs from Mr. Frank. 9.5/10

RIGA REIGN PRESS CONFERENCE July 14th, 2024 1. We are currently up 3-1 on Moscow in the Semi-Finals - what do you think is the most contributing factor to get so far? 2.

Were you correct, and if not, who do you think has been the unsung hero so far? 4. How is your players conditioning after a deep run into the playoffs? 5. If you won the cup, what would your day with it look like? 6. Do you think Ovechkin breaks the NHL all-time goal scoring record this year? He needs 42 goals.
