Beaver Beaverton, a Penticton Vees prospect out of Winnipeg, Manitoba, comes into the draft as a highly touted offensive dynamo. After registering a 102 point campaign in what many scouts predict will be his last season in the BCHL, he is exhilarated to take the next step in his career.  Many scouts that I have talked to proclaim that this guy will be a hard-nosed sniper who is a threat to score on every shift once he reaches his full potential.
“[He] is a player that embodies the worn out cliché, ‘good Canadian boy’ on and off the ice.”
-Former teammate – Tyson Jost
 
 
Serving as an assistant captain in the 2015-2016 season, Beaver Beaverton cemented himself as a key player in the Penticton Vees journey towards a league championship. Along with being a main contributor in the teams’ leadership core, scouts were very pleased to see a jump in production in his second year in the league. This jump in production saw Beaver accumulate 56 more points than his rookie campaign, where this year 57.8% (59pts) of his points came at ES.
“His qualities that stick out the most are his sneaky quick release that he can fire off the rush and his ability to find open space, he’s going to be a good one.”
-Anonymous VHL scout
 
 
Strengths
 
Scoring: Whether he’s finding a dead spot in coverage on the powerplay, crashing and banging for those garbage goals or sniping one past the goalies ear on the rush, Beaver just finds a way to put the puck in the back of the net. This multi-dimensional right winger is not afraid to put the pucks on net, in fact, he amassed 224 shots in 56 games during the 2015-2016 season with the Vees. If he were to fire the puck at that rate during an 82 game season, he would have racked up 328 shots, fantasy hockey players rejoice.
Passing: Although at first glance he may seem like a shoot-first kind of player, Beaver definitely has some underrated passing abilities. While many teams overplay his shot on the powerplay, he uses it to his advantage and is able to find those open seams that get created because of this. He thrives off of the cycle game to find an open man in the opponents’ zone, but he is also great at finding his uncovered teammates off the rush.
Leadership: “I remember one game early on in the year where I was skating into the corner to retrieve and puck and got hit pretty hard from behind. After collecting myself, I looked up and Beaver already has his gloves off going after the guy that hit me. That’s all you need to know about his leadership abilities.” – Tyson Jost
 
 
Weaknesses
 
Strength: Standing at 6 feet 2 inches and 210 lbs, Beaverton will have to fill out his frame a bit more to withstand the hits he’ll be facing in the big leagues. Although his game doesn’t rely on him delivering the big blows, he will have to put on more strength if he wants to continue driving the net like he did in juniors.
Skating: I wouldn’t say skating is one of his biggest flaws, in fact he has above average top end speed, but Beaver will have to work on his first couple of steps if he wants to activate on the rush at the pro level. His lateral movement will have to be refined as well which will benefit his overall defensive game.
Defense: Although he has exceptional work ethic in his own zone, he does sometimes get lost in his coverage. Whichever team drafts Beaver will have to sit him down and run through some game footage to show him some areas he can improve on. The good thing is, you can teach defensive coverage but you can’t teach heart or the god given talent to put the puck in the back of the net like this guy.
 
Shoutout to Tyson Jost for the kind words.

30 for 30: A Day In the Life
The Beaver Beaverton story
 
 

 

On this episode of 30 for 30, we will take a look at the young but promising career of Beaver Beaverton, a hopeful prospect out of Winnipeg, Manitoba. Recently drafted into the VHLM by the Bratislava Watchmen, we will dive into rollercoaster ride of his upbringing and how he was able to overcome many hurdles onto his path towards stardom.
 
 
 
Where it all began
 
Beaver Beaverton, born on October 22nd 1998, had a less than optimal upbringing where he faced many obstacles. When he was just two years old, his immediate family moved from his birthplace of Sudbury, Ontario to Winnipeg, where they were forced to move because of his dads’ job relocation. Although Beaver didn’t have many memories of his time in Sudbury, the Beavertons did leave behind their extended family, which would eventually prove to become very troublesome. In a new city where they didn’t know many people, the Beavertons rallied together and supported each other on a path to their new journey.
Growing up in a very fluent bilingual family, Beaver was immediately attracted to his parents’ favorite hockey team, the Montreal Canadiens. “I remember watching the Habs every Saturday on Hockey Night in Canada religiously. I would sit on the couch with my Mom and Dad to cheer on le bleu, blanc et rouge every week, no questions asked” said Beaver. In his early days, after each Montreal game, Beaver and his Mom would play this silly hand hockey game that he invented in his living room, where he imitated his favorite players: Jose Theodore, Saku Koivu and Richard Zednick to name a few. He had grown a profound love for the game of hockey.
 
The struggles
 
For the first few years, the Beavertons were taking the change in scenery quite well. They were a tight nit family who did everything together, such as going to their local amusement park, watch the latest movies at the cinemas together and even took a few road trips out to western Canada.
Fast forward four years to when Beaver was but 6 years old, his family had just received the news that grandpa Beaverton had passed away. No one took this tragic news harder than Beavers father, Castor. In fact, Castor had such a hard time with the passing of his father, that he turned to alcohol and gambling to numb the pain. Having blown thousands of dollars, Castor was in deep financial trouble and had a hard time making payments, let alone buying his son hockey equipment or registering him into a league.
At school, Beaver would always hear his friends, who were fortunate enough to play on hockey teams’, talk about how great their team was and that proved to be hard on him. Beaver had eventually gotten his hands on a pair of hand me down skates that were a couple sizes too big for him and a broken hockey stick that he had found at his local outdoor rink. While his friends were attending their practices and hockey games after school, Beaver would find himself at his local community center learning how to skate by himself.
 
Overcoming adversity
 
At the ripe age of eleven, Beaver had had enough and decided to get himself a paper route in hopes of earning enough money to play hockey with his friends next hockey season. He had worked hard all summer making 20$ a week, and soon enough, he had saved up enough money to buy second hand hockey equipment. Excited by his accomplishment, Beaver had worked even harder during the school year and ended up with a second paper route. By the time hockey season had rolled around, Beaver could afford to register himself into a hockey league with his friends.
Watching his son hop onto the ice with his friends brought a new spark into Castors’ life, a spark that had been extinguished for many years. Attending his sons’ hockey games was his form of self-therapy, in which helped steer clear of the demons that were haunting him.  
 

 
 
 
 
On the path to stardom
 
Most people would think that missing five or six years of development would have hindered Beavers play compared to the rest of the players, but that was not the case. In fact, Beaver was a very visual person where he had learned the ins and outs of the game of hockey by simply watching his favorite hockey team on television. All those years of skating, stickhandling and shooting in solitude had actually proven to be very beneficial. He had taught himself a very creative and fast passed style of game which had earned him an award for being the top scorer in his peewee league in his first season of organized hockey. Beaver had turned a lot of coach’s heads in his rookie season, as a matter of fact, the next year he had made his local AA and he kept climbing the ranks year after year. 
Fast-forward five years where Beaver finds himself to be the captain of his provincial AAA hockey team, the Winnipeg Warriors. With junior scouts at every single one of his games, Beaver ended the season with an impressive total of 89 points in 38 games where he had accumulated an astonishing 50 goals. With many junior offers on the table, Beaver ended up taking the unusual choice of choosing to play his junior career with the Penticton Vees out of the BCHL.
He had struggled his first year, according to his standards, accumulating just 46 points in a very limited role. He then proceeded to explode the next year and turned the corner, becoming a bonafide junior prospect. Playing on a line with a solidified drafted player, Tyson Jost, Beaver had earned an “A” on his jersey and finished the season with an incredible 102 points.
 
 
Draft day
 
And now here we are, Wednesday, November 23rd 2016 at the VHLM dispersal draft, where Beaver Beaverton had seen his name drop past the first and second round. This had Beaver questioning himself whether he had made the right decision on committing to the BCHL instead of the traditional route. Finally at pick number 20, his moment had finally arrived… “The Bratislava Watchmen are very proud to select out of the BCHLs Penticton Vees, Beaver Beaverton”. Beaver, accompanied by his mother and father had jumped out of their seats in joy. “I’m so proud of you son” whispered his father into his ear before he walked up on stage to put on the Watchmen’s hat and jersey.
 
 
 
 
P.S. I am in no way making fun of alcohol or gambling addiction.

Pierre Gaudette Biography
Written by: Frank Chadwick
 
Early Life
Pierre Gaudette born May 15th 1998 in Quebec City, Canada. Pierre grew up loving the Montreal Canadiens, his father Claude used to take him to games and he would occasionally meet the players afterwards. This inspired him to become a hockey player. He started playing at the age of 6 though he did not play in a league until he was 12. Pierre was always considered under sized while he was growing up because of his late growth spurt and slender build. On October 18th 2012 Pierre's father Claude passed away, he now dedicates all his games to his father. Pierre would regularly play outdoor hockey with his friends all year round. He would watch Hockey Night and Canada and use the tips Don Cherry gave to help improve his game. In the winters the temperature would drop below -20 and Pierre would be outside playing hockey improving his skills on the rough ice. Though things we're going good on the ice for Pierre, off the ice was another story. His teachers believed he may have learning difficulties or some form of ADHD. At one point his troubles in the classroom forced him to stop playing hockey and focus on his studies. Fortunately once he hit middle school his teachers we're able to get through to him and he was able to join a hockey league. His mother would drive him to practice at 5 am, in return Pierre would shovel the drive way in the winter.

High School
Pierre attended Collège François-de-Laval until he graduated in 2016. He studied the regular curriculum unfortunately education was not his strong suit as he struggled to maintain a high enough GPA to remain the QMJHL throughout his time at Laval. He did however excel in woodworking as he would often take on projects that weren't even a part of the course. His teacher believe that if hockey didn't work out he would have a future in furniture making. In fact his woodworking prowess got him a scholarship to Laval University in the Joinery Department. Pierre won athlete of the year in every grade during his time at Laval, he starred in track and field. They even named an award after him the Gaudette Come Back Trophy, which is given out to all students not only athletes. The award is meant for someone that starts off poorly but improves so vastly they're accomplishments can't go unnoticed. "Pierre is the definition of character, he is relentless even when he is unsuccessful and he never gives up." A quote from his high school physical education instructor.  
 
QMJHL Career
In 2013 Pierre Gaudette was draft 13th overall to the Victoriaville Tigres. His GM had this to say after the selection. "Pierre's a good kid with plenty of talent to go with that smile, we hope he can put up big points for us in the future. We really like his play making ability and his defensive awareness." After getting his tires pumped up by his GM, Pierre would put up 6 points in 10 games as a 16 year old. His coach commented "We really like what we've seen from Pierre in this short stint but we need him to bulk up a bit, we don't want him to get hurt out there." Pierre Gaudette was starting to catch eyes of VHLM scouts. Specifically Sam Helberg so came to Victoriaville to watch Pierre ahead of the Season 52 VHLM draft. Sam Helberg the current GM of the Yukon Rush had this to say at the time. "We're here to do our due diligence, if we see a player that stands out we'll definitely make note. I'd say Gaudette has been impressive but I'm not sure about his shot." Sam's comments we're right on the mark with Pierre's statistics in his final VHLM season. He scored only 10 goals in 72 games but added 70 assists.

VHLM Draft
Ahead of the Season 52 VHLM Draft rumours were swirling that Pierre would go undrafted and need to be signed to a VHLM contract if he was even to play in the VHLM. "After the first round passed my mom looked at me and said whatever happens you'll be fine just keep improving yourself." Pierre answered when asked if he was worried once he didn't go in the first round. "I wasn't too worried I want to play hockey as long as I get the chance I'll be happy." He continued. "Maybe if it was the third round I might feel a bit sad since no team would want to take a risk on me but fortunately that did not happen." The very last pick in the second round was called and the Yukon Rush selected Pierre Gaudette. It was official he was headed to northern Canada. Sam Helberg drafted Pierre after scouting him in Victoriaville earlier in the year. His tenacity and relentlessness on the puck was what separated him from other draftees at that pick. Pierre Gaudette will start the season at center, he is expected to play all of Season 52 in the VHLM. At the end of Season 52 he will be able to negotiate a contract with a VHL team. Although sources say that he will be signing with his hometown Quebec City Meute. "That would be a dream come true but I don't want to put myself in a position where if it doesn't happen I have no other options." Pierre stated when asked about the possibility of signing with the Meute next season. 
 
This biography is written in loving memory of Claude Gaudette (1968-2012). A loving father and hard working man, he will never be forgotten. This eulogy's only purpose is so I can hit an arbitrary word count which is 1000 words and is a fucking total pain in my ass. Thank you kind regards. 

@beaverNBFD

So, the draft is over and he're the results:
 
Welcome to the team @754, @Beketov, and especially @beaverNBFD! Hope you'll like it here and VHLM league as well! 
 
And welcome back @solas! 

With the TWENTYTH OVERALL PICK the Bratislava Watchmen selects
 
 
BEAVER BEAVERTON!
 
Welcome to the team! @beaverNBFD 

Legubrious "Loogie" Tucker
 
Position: Two-Way D
Height (inches): 6'6"
Weight (lbs.): 243 Lbs Birth Date: Oct 13th, 1998 Birthplace: Castor, Alberta, Canada       Initial Scouting Report:
A big developing two-way defender with size, speed, and a good first pass. Has a hard time with shot accuracy, but rushes and passes the puck well into offensive situations. Tremendous edge work and acceleration often used to overcome positional deficiency. Plays the body, and willing to drop the gloves if merited. Often attempts to do too much to his determent. Has a chance to be a solid defender if he calms and simplifies his game at the next level. Scouts have likened the physical attributes to that of Dustin Byfuglien, with better speed but a worse shot. Currently looks to be at minimum a future shutdown defender, with the potential to become the coveted top pairing RHD.
  Playing Career:
Drafted 3rd overall in the 2013 WHL Bantam Draft to the Kelowna Rockets Tucker has completely two full seasons with the club. Most recently playing top pairing minutes with Lukas Johansen in all situations in a successful season that saw the Rockets lose in the second round to the Victoria Royals. Tucker was named an assistant captain in 2016, and led the team is assists, hits, and PIMs.

  Strengths:
  Physical attributes (Size and Toughness) - Legubrious plays that game hard and fast. Physically dominate on a regular basis, and capable of using his impressive speed to find hits in all areas of the ice. Willing to stand up for teammates and create space for skilled forwards.
  Speed - His speed allows him to fly the zone well when first pass opportunities don't present themselves, and to maintain positioning against all but the best of opponents. Very rarely is the opposition capable of separation during offensive rushes.
  Hockey IQ - Showing mostly in the patience and awareness of his teammates Legubrious rarely turns over pucks, and tends to make the smart efficient plays particularly in the defensive zone. When on his game he plays a fast and simple brand of hockey where he is able to efficiently anticipate oppositions moves and defend accordingly.
 
 
  Weakness:
  Shot accuracy: Tucker’s primary offensive weapon is his slap shot, which has as much of a chance of missing the net as hitting it. He needs to improve accuracy even at the expensive of shot speed.
  Aggressive Play: There are times when Tucker attempts to do too much when the team is down. Jumping out of position for a big hit, taking a penalty in an attempt to initiate a fight, or just being stripped of the puck on an end to end rush. He needs to learn to rely on his team, and not attempt to carry everything on his shoulders.
  Emotional Control: Playing with an edge is an important part of Tucker’s game, but there are times when he goes beyond with dangerous stick infractions, boarding players in the numbers, and a litany of offences exemplified by his 10 game suspension in his 2014-2015 season for jumping the boards to fight Taylor Crunk of the Victoria Royals.

Scoring: Whether he’s finding a dead spot in coverage on the powerplay, crashing and banging for those garbage goals or sniping one past the goalies ear on the rush, Beaver just finds a way to put the puck in the back of the net. This multi-dimensional right winger is not afraid to put the pucks on net, in fact, he amassed 224 shots in 56 games during the 2015-2016 season with the Vees.

Skating: I wouldn’t say skating is one of his biggest flaws, in fact he has above average top end speed, but Beaver will have to work on his first couple of steps if he wants to activate on the rush at the pro level. His lateral movement will have to be refined as well which will benefit his overall defensive game.
Defense: Although he has exceptional work ethic in his own zone, he does sometimes get lost in his coverage. Whichever team drafts Beaver will have to sit him down and run through some game footage to show him some areas he can improve on. The good thing is, you can teach defensive coverage but you can’t teach heart or the god given talent to put the puck in the back of the net like this guy.

After registering a 102 point campaign in what many scouts predict will be his last season in the BCHL, he is exhilarated to take the next step in his career.  Many scouts that I have talked to proclaim that this guy will be a hard-nosed sniper who is a threat to score on every shift once he reaches his full potential.
“[He] is a player that embodies the worn out cliché, ‘good Canadian boy’ on and off the ice.”
-Former teammate – Tyson Jost
 
 
Serving as an assistant captain in the 2015-2016 season, Beaver Beaverton cemented himself as a key player in the Penticton Vees journey towards a league championship. Along with being a main contributor in the teams’ leadership core, scouts were very pleased to see a jump in production in his second year in the league. This jump in production saw Beaver accumulate 56 more points than his rookie campaign, where this year 57.8% (59pts) of his points came at ES.
“His qualities that stick out the most are his sneaky quick release that he can fire off the rush and his ability to find open space, he’s going to be a good one.”
-Anonymous VHL scout
 
 
Strengths
 
Scoring: Whether he’s finding a dead spot in coverage on the powerplay, crashing and banging for those garbage goals or sniping one past the goalies ear on the rush, Beaver just finds a way to put the puck in the back of the net. This multi-dimensional right winger is not afraid to put the pucks on net, in fact, he amassed 224 shots in 56 games during the 2015-2016 season with the Vees. If he were to fire the puck at that rate during an 82 game season, he would have racked up 328 shots, fantasy hockey players rejoice.
Passing: Although at first glance he may seem like a shoot-first kind of player, Beaver definitely has some underrated passing abilities. While many teams overplay his shot on the powerplay, he uses it to his advantage and is able to find those open seams that get created because of this. He thrives off of the cycle game to find an open man in the opponents’ zone, but he is also great at finding his uncovered teammates off the rush.
Leadership: “I remember one game early on in the year where I was skating into the corner to retrieve and puck and got hit pretty hard from behind. After collecting myself, I looked up and Beaver already has his gloves off going after the guy that hit me. That’s all you need to know about his leadership abilities.” – Tyson Jost
 
 
Weaknesses
 
Strength: Standing at 6 feet 2 inches and 210 lbs, Beaverton will have to fill out his frame a bit more to withstand the hits he’ll be facing in the big leagues. Although his game doesn’t rely on him delivering the big blows, he will have to put on more strength if he wants to continue driving the net like he did in juniors.
Skating: I wouldn’t say skating is one of his biggest flaws, in fact he has above average top end speed, but Beaver will have to work on his first couple of steps if he wants to activate on the rush at the pro level. His lateral movement will have to be refined as well which will benefit his overall defensive game.
Defense: Although he has exceptional work ethic in his own zone, he does sometimes get lost in his coverage. Whichever team drafts Beaver will have to sit him down and run through some game footage to show him some areas he can improve on. The good thing is, you can teach defensive coverage but you can’t teach heart or the god given talent to put the puck in the back of the net like this guy.
