I'm in and willing to manage again

Alessandro Nano first season in the VHL is coming to a close and it's been a pretty good season for him. The Helsinki Titans have been competitive this season but unfortunately Nano season will not end in a championship as his previous ended in cups with Miami and Vesteras. On a personal level, Nano had a great season as his production with just a game left in the season is coming clos to matching the VHLE last year. Nano has 15 goals and 47 assists for 62 points iin 71 games this season. Nano has 3 more goals this season than last and is 3 points shy of his VHLE total. Considering the jump in the quality of the league it's quite surprising to see Nano pretty much match his VHLE point totals. It's unlikely that he will have a 3 point game in the finale but it's still been a good one for him. Alessandro has also blocked 179 shots to go along with 172 hits. Nano prides himself on his defensive game but as the stats have shown he can contribute at both ends of the ice. Nano leads the titans in shot blocks by 4 so that could change in the final game. Alessandro is second on the team in PIM but he's just 2 back so he could lead the team in that category after the final game. Nano is the titans highest scoring defenseman at the moment with a 2 point lead over salducci. I think I've had a good rookie season and I think we played as well or even exceeded expectations for the team. We have a great young team and I think we have a great future. Although my cup winning streak has come to an end I believe we will be contenders very soon. I am going to work hard to his offseason to become a more well rounded player next season. My goal is to o work on my offensive side of the game while putting some hard work in the gym to get stronger. Now that Alessandro has basically completed his first season in the VHL it's time to see how he fared in comparison to his father Paolo Nano who was also drafted by the titans. Earlier in the season Alessandro had already passed his father in goals and assists but now we can see by how much. Paolo had 6 goals and 26 assists which means alessndro has doubled his dad's goals total and came close to doubling the assists total. Paolo played 2 seasons in Helsinki and it will be interesting to see if Alessando remains a Titan longer than dad. "I love playing here on Helsinki and would be happy to play here as long as possible. I know it's a business but if it were up to me I'd love to be a Titan for life" said Alessandro Nano. Paolo had this to say about his son. "I am very proud of how Alessandro played this season. He definitely is a more talented player than I was and I believe he will have a much better career than me. He's already won at the lower levels and that was something I was never able to accomplish. I also never won a Continental Cup and I truly believe Alessandro will win one one day.

Merry Christmas

Alessandro Nano scored his 10th goal of the season which is great for a physical defenseman in his rookie season. So far this season Nano has 10 goals and 35 assists in 51 games. Last season in the VHLE Nano scored 12 goals so he has a legitimate chance to surpass that in his VHL rookie season which would be surprising. Nano has 125 hits and 120 blocks this season which is on pace for a lower total than in the VHLE. 6 of Nano's goals this season were scored on the powerplay and he is minus 5 on the season. Alessandro is already having a better rookie season with the titans than his father Paolo did back in season 63. Paolo scores 6 goals to go along with 26 assists for a 32 point Rooke campaign total which Alessandro has already smashed. Alessandro already has more assists than Paolo had points with about a quarter of the season to go. Paolo was not much of a hitter and Alessandro already has him beat I'm both hits and shot blocks already. It will be interesting to see how Alessandro's career compares to his father but through one season Alessandro has the upper hand.

1) Yes or No: do marshmallows belong in a fruit salad? No, first I've heard of that. 2) What is your biggest pet peeve when it comes to your teammates? Guys who don't give it their all and take off shifts. 3) Do you have any holiday plans coming up? Live with the in-laws while our house is being renovated so having my wife aunt and uncle here . 4) Have you been signing up for the VHL 12 Days of Christmas events? Yes I think I may have missed one 5) Do you think there are any potential point tasks that we could be doing instead of Media Spots, Graphics, or Podcasts? Or does that cover pretty much everything? Not that I can think of but maybe someone else has a great idea. 6) What do you think the best indicator of a Two Way Forward's performance is? I have plus minus but for this sim will go with that.

Hi

Hello

1) Despite mild expectations going into this season, we are currently one game back off third in the conference. What position do you think we will end up in? I will say 4th place but hope for higher 2) Who has been our team MVP so far this season? Alex Johnston he's been a beast for is. 3) What is your favorite team logo in the league? I like London as it's suits the UK but phantoms is the best. 5) What is your worst sports memory? Watching TFC lose the MLS Cup final in penalties after a goalless game in the freezing cold at BMO stadium. 6) What is your best sports memory? Watching TFC win the MLS Cup at BMO field. Next best is the raptors winning the title and the crazy parade. 7) What is your favorite root vegetable? Potatoes. They are delicious in many forms.

1) What is your favorite holiday? Without a doubt Christmas 2) Are you a coffee person, tea person, or neither? Coffee, drink Nespresso mostly. 3) Do you think it's easier to build a team via the draft or via free agency? The draft is probably best as it's cheaper and free agents may want to win so you have to build through the draft first. 4) Do you have any podcast recommendations? I don't really listen to them but my wife has been into calm down with Erin Andrews and Carissa Thompson and it's good if you're a football fan 5) Why is Helsinki the best team in the VHL? Have good group of young players and prospects from the past draft so as a rookie it will be great to grow with them. 6) Why is Helsinki the worst team in the VHL? I don't think we are the worse but the reason would be that we don't have enough experience yet but it will com
