Tape-to-Tape

1- generally my all around game. Rebound control and hand speed have been my focus. 2- jubo always seems to draft well and he got a great player in both Jim Bob and Helminen. 3- he should be great for you guys as Andersen develops and can take over his role eventually. 4- good young player added to the rebuild. I think he proves to be a nice add. 5- Spaz 6- yes he should be able to get 45 points or more

There is a new goalie in town and he is excited to start his career in the VHL minor league in season 72. Zamboni Driver hails from Iceland and will be the highest rated goalie in the draft tonight. He is nearing 100 TPE already and is not going to slow down. He has seen some interest from VHLM general managers so far this off season. The next best goalie in the draft is Woody McPine who looks strong as well so it will be interesting to see who is picked first between them. After them there is a drop off to Andrew Green who is a projected late rounder in the draft. The draft gets started tonight at 10:00pm Eastern Time. There has been a lot of buzz around the league as the VHL minor league teams look to re stock their rosters for another exciting season of hockey.

Borwinn is a guarantee to make it to the HOF so I thought of writing about a different Titan. Guillaume Fontenette @okochastar has been as steady as the best in the last two seasons. He began his VHL pro career on the slow side with only 39 points total through two seasons. His low totals were a factor of being behind the big two for the Titans at the time in Crosby and Wilson. Season 69 and 70 has been his coming out party with 131 points so far in those seasons. He is a long shot from ever being in conversation for the hall of fame but I am sure he will make it into the Finland Hockey Hall of Fame for being such an important member of the Titans. He is signed with the Titans for one more season and the franchise is hopeful he sticks around for the rest of his career as well. My player Joey Boucher is sad to be leaving after this season because of retirement but I will continue to be a fan of the franchise and everything it has done for me.

1- happy to have changed to being a defender for this great team 2- it looks like Boucher will finish a minus player this season 3- sad to not be here and play with the new players. Most looking forward to seeing how Spaz works out. 4- plays with a lot of heart and passion for the franchise 5- Vancouver. 6- Buffalo’s trades were confusing to me. Even if they make the playoffs I dont see them going past round one.

1 - I will miss him as a team member. I am to retire soon as well so this is a sad time for me but is also a time to reflect on how good it has been. 2 - Same as above answer. The staple player of Helsinki soon to be no more. These 2 were legends. 3 - we are better than our record would make you believe. Top 4 team in the power ranking is my answer. 4 - I think we hold onto what we have 5 - I streamed the Quiet Place after seeing the trailer for the new one that is coming out. 6 - Root Beer or Orange Soda

1- Improve my plus minus rating and just improve on defence overall 2- good lineup chemistry 3- win one more cup this season before retirement 4- it may be close but he has a real good chance at it 5- yes they should for sure 6- stinky foods

49 games to go for Boucher when looking at regular season games that are left. Time has passed quickly and it saddens me to have to retire Joey in just a few weeks time. I remain hopeful that we remain in the playoff picture for those 49 games and we have a chance to make one final run at the continental cup. My personal performance this season has not been good enough and I am always working on improving even as the end nears. We are confident as a team that the playoffs are a strong possibility as long as we keep believing. The Titans have been the start and the end for my career which makes me want to leave a lasting impression for those that will be here for seasons ahead. That is all for me this time. Back to the ice to sharpen my game. Lets Go Titans!

We have played 17 games and the Titans are sitting in a playoff spot but have as many losses as they have wins. I would not say it is time to panic yet as we have a lot of time to improve and work on our team chemistry. Joey Boucher has 1 goal and 6 assists so far. Hitting 300 career points in a personal goal and Boucher is only 15 away from that milestone. He has a -5 this season which is not going to cut it going forward. He has only been a minus player once in his 7 year career. He wants to do all that he can to help the team and needs to be more consistent on the ice. If this means eventually speaking with his GM and giving allowance for a trade to strengthen the team then Joey would be ok to do that even though it would be a bittersweet end. There are 55 games left in the season and it is never healthy to draw conclusions. I am confident we will get back to winning more consistently and cementing a spot among the top three teams in the conference.

1- I think if we keep at it we will get on a more consistent pattern of wins 2- I am enjoying being on D and still getting in on the offensive side. 3- I know Jubo likes to work the lines until it is exactly what he is looking for. In him I trust. 4- Beach days 5- I am always available to answer anything from the media. Boucher has never shy’d away. 6- I think we battle it out in the top 2 spots. As a team we are always getting better and we know how important this season is before the Titans attend to a rebuild.

1- It was a good off season which gave me time to practice defensive skills 2- defensive side of the game after announcing I would be switching to D 3- Improving my skating and puck handling 4- Erik Draven and Erik Summers 5- I took a small break before hitting the gym and practice ice 6- We should have no issue making the playoffs again and making another run at the cup
