McWolf

Holy shit that's huge pressure.

Ottawa just won the Founder's Cup. Joseph McWolf is sitting in the locker room, halfway through taking out his gear and he's just lost in his thoughts. Others are celebrating, and he will definitely get to it in a minute or two, but right now, he's just following where his mind leads him. A couple minutes ago, he was lifting the cup at the center of the ice, in front of loyal Ottawa Lynx fans. He capped off this brilliant run with a strong 2-assist, +3, 5-hit and 2-blocked shot performance. Very possibly his best game of the whole playoffs. McWolf rarely takes the spotlight, but it just felt so good, playing at such an impressive level in his last ever VHLM game, in such an important setting, in front of Lynx fans that followed the team all season. This just feels so unreal for him. This is like a dream come true. Actually, while this does feel like a dream right now, he knows better. This is barely the first part of a dream come true. This season has been a great learning experience for McWolf. He had it rough for the first couple of games, but he ended up as one of the most solid shutdown defenseman in the league, if not the best one. But it's now time to take his game up to the next level. Next season, he'll join the VHL following the Entry Draft, where he'll face tough adversity day in day out. A whole step above what he played against in the VHLM. He doesn't know yet what colours he'll wear, but he has an idea already. Anything is possible, but if we are realistic, there are only two possible destinations for McWolf. There is no way he gets called on the stage first on draft day. That honour will no doubt belong to his linemate with the Lynx, Ryan Kastelic. He is about as good defensively as McWolf and miles ahead of him offensively. He has the skillset to be the best defenseman on the whole Riga squad right now and they would be crazy to pass on him. That brings us to the second pick: Helsinki Titans. McWolf spoke with the new Titans' GM a few times and he feels like they built a nice rapport together. He doesn't know if he intends to draft him with the 2nd overall pick, as he might prefer Julian Borwinn to him, but there's a good possibility Quik selects him with that pick. However, if he doesn't, then there's no doubt McWolf gets selected with the very next pick: New York Americans. Again, McWolf had good talks with the Americans' GM and he feels he'd be delighted to have him on his team. He might be wrong, but deep down, he has a feeling this is as far as he goes. Ball in his Helsinki's court. They're basically the ones to decide the English defenseman's fate at that point. But hey, this can all wait a few days. Get this nonsense out of your head, Joseph. You can't control it anyway. Now go and get drunk with your buddies.

From week 2 to right now, I've been 4th and @Cornflakers was 5th. Pretty crazy how that top 5 was pretty static all season

So uh, top score in the 9 groups? I'll go ahead and act like I knew what I was doing

2 assists +3 5 hits 2 blocked shots Nice VHLM farewell for McWolf

New York Lynx Sr.

Joining the Americans with my boy @oilmandan? Where do I sign?

@Ottawa Lynx Players, we are doing this, are we? Great team effort!

@hedgehog337 doing the lord's work!

I'd like to try my hand at GMing Team Western Europe.

It has to be Kastelic.

Englishman Joseph McWolf reporting in. We got @Enorama hailing from Slovenia too!

1-0 let's go!

Beau Louth is a provincial hero

I tried to read between the lines and took it a step too far I guess. It's just the feeling i had from the OP.

1. I'm from Quebec, my perfect evening plan is to eat poutine, drinking a NEIPA, watching some The Office episodes for the nth time. I'm trash at FPS games, I prefer solo strategy and/or roguelike games. I'm a fan of deathmetal, folk/indie and everything in between. 2. Saw one of Spade's many reddit ad. It was like the 3rd time I saw one in the last year or so, but the timing this time just felt right. I'm done with school, no more homeworks. And i had just dropped some time-consuming phone game I played for a while. I'm hooked now, I'll be here for a while! 3. I don't really have a favourite. I think I have a nice friendly/business relationship with both Banackock and Beaviss, so I would have liked to play for one of them, but I doubt I drop to their picks. There's no team I don't want to play for though, I'll be happy to just play in the majors next season, wherever I get to play! 4. I figured defensive defensemen would be rare, but useful. I'm enjoying it so far. Helping the team away from the spotlight. 5. Honestly, I doubt I ever get to be Ottawa's GM. @diamond_ace isn't leaving his job, I'll have to stay his AGM forever. I'll have a better shot at the next opening. I don't mind what team though, I'll go where the wind leads me

So it's rigged because you lost? You finished the regular season with one more win than us, it's not like you were exactly dominating. I agree it could have been closer, but my guess is there's more to it than TPA, and we probably had better tactics to beat you than the other way around.

I'm AGM with Ottawa, already. Thanks for the offer, though!

Welcome aboard, @hookemhorns. Hit me up with questions if you got any!

You deserve that job @Jubo07. I wanna GM at some point, but this job was yours from the moment it was available. Good luck in the upcoming seasons!

Nice one to close it off! Gg boys

My man!
