To all those interested parties except the GM of the Olso Drizzle.  
 
For those of you who don't know me, call me Barzy. I'm the GM of the Yukon Rush, who are coming off of the best record in recent VHLM memory, and a tough loss in the Founder's Cup finals. I'm writing this as part of my due diligence in scouting young VHLM talent, which isn't as easy as you think. While I can look at your profiles you've been writing, and see who's done what, I'd mostly love to hear from you. Send me a DM or reply to this with a comment on why I should take you in the draft, and why you are excited for this upcoming season! 
 
Why the Rush? I can promise you, as the Yukon Rush we will be striving for greatness this season, but sometimes you fall a little short. If it just so happens that the Rush are very far out of the playoff chase as the deadline approaches, I will do everything in my power to move you to a top contender, and make sure you CAN compete. For those of you who want to be Rush, I'll make sure to keep you, and be a good GM. So again, if you'd like to make my scouting for tonight's draft a little bit easier, or make yourself stand out *hint hint* leave a comment or send a DM my way. 
 
Finally, I'd like to mention that I just finished my first season in the VHLM, and I'd love to take on some new mentees to show the ropes. Obviously, I don't know everything, but I know just enough to help you get taken in the first round of the VHL draft like I did, and I know some people in high up places who can answer all of your questions. 

You gave enough away as it is! @Elhandon GOING FIRST OTTAWA PICK. LOCK IT IN! YOU'RE WELCOME OTHER VHLM GMS!!!!!

Accept

My best memory is the one time we beat Yukon this season ?

I'd be happy to do either, Fantasy Zone is probably more my speed.

Using this as an excuse to learn how to use Gimp... it's so intuitive! ?

Jake Davis (JD) - RW
6'4" - 205 lbs
 
Born: June 17th, 1999,
Winnipeg, MB, CA

First on the ice, last off
    From the first time his dad laced up Jake's skates and took him out on the ice, he's known that he was born to play hockey. At a young age, Jake quickly picked up the intricacies of the game; establishing vision that far exceeded his skill. Having a difficult time in his early teens, Jake quit the game and changed his focus to academics but shortly after his 16th birthday Jake joined his high school team and immediately found success. He moved up to WHL shortly after returning and then was picked up as a free agent by the Ottawa Lynx in the VMHL where he has found some early success. His work ethic and dedication to improvement have paid astounding dividends and will continue to as he works his way through his professional hockey career.

Strengths
Passing - Since he was young, Davis always found the lanes that no one else saw. It wasn't until later in his development that he was able to actually hit those seams. When you see him on the score card, it'll usually be in the primary assist spot. One of the most dangerous young players on a 2 on 1. He'll be a smart addition to any power-play once he matures.
 
Puck Handling - Not exactly known for his flashy puck handling, Davis has some understated skill in that department. As he transitioned from playing left wing to right wing in high school, he was quickly able to adjust to playing on his off wing and the possessional challenges that entails. While he focuses more on his smart positional play, he is known to make a move when a defender gets in close. 
 
Defense - While known more for his play making, Davis is also a gifted two-way player. His positional intelligence helps him be in the correct spot whether with the puck or without and he's great at zoning people out to the edges of the ice. 
 
Weaknesses
Skating - Having always relied on his positioning, Davis is not a great skater. As he ramps up in the big leagues he will need to focus on his speed and stability as he faces better opponents. He relies more on his line mates to get to open ice and then making the perfect pass than he does on on blowing past defenders on the boards.
 
Physicality - While Davis is not a small player by any means, his game is more grounded in intelligence than physicality. He focuses on playing the puck over playing the body. Unfortunately when he does play the body he is known for taking some unintentional minors. Hopefully he is able to work on his discipline to reduce the effect this has on his team.
 
Face-offs - Having never played Center in his development, Davis has a low proficiency in face-offs. While he is able to handle a half dozen or so draws a game, he shouldn't be utilized in the circle any more than that.
