Can't stop, wont stop. Brick Wahl -the winter soldier Brick Wahl- Judgement day Brick Wahl- Back in the Habit

2018 Rookie Profile: Brick Wahl Name: Brick Wahl Height: 6’7 Weight: 247lbs Born: September 1st, 1997 Draft Season: Season 63, Undrafted Current Team: Las Vegas Aces Why you want him? Style Control Wahl can simply be described as a blocking type goalie. He uses the center of his body as the blocking area and anyone who has seen Wahl knows that is a lot of blocking area. His priority seems to be covering as much ice as he can. Anyone who has played against Wahl knows there is no shooting through him, if you want that puck in the net you are going to have to go around him. If you’re looking to beat the Brick my advice is to avoid ground shots, shoot high, and pray he makes a mistake. Reaction Time It is Obvious Wahl is a big goalie don’t let that put images of a slow lumbering giant in your head. Wahl is quick on the puck, most likely due to his ability to track that illusive piece of rubber. Will Crusher the Coach of the University of Saskatchewan’s Hockey team, The Huskies, once said “It’s like Wahl’s got a homing beacon on that puck, sometimes I’ll think in all that traffic there is no way he could know where it is, then boom the whistle is blown and Wahl is handing the Ref the puck.” Rebound Control Like the Cougar, native to his homeland, Wahl is always ready to pounce and once he has his hands on that puck it will not be going anywhere. Wahl uses his body to his advantage and forces players to shot at him. Once that puck heads in Wahl’s direction he makes it his mission to get his hands on it. Wahl plays his position like a five-star general, if he sees the opportunity to start a play he makes it but if the situation calls for it he will hold the puck for a strategic retreat. What needs work? Leadership: Putting a Brick Wahl in front of your net may be good for your score but Brick has a bit of a reputation for being stone faced in the locker room. Wahl is a goalie who formed himself into a marketable player though hard work and determination, but he is more than happy to let other players to take on a true leadership role. Wahl has said in the past “My position on this team is supportive in nature, I always have my teammates back covered. I do my best back in the net, so they can lead us home down in the other end.” Penalty Shot Penalty shots are proof that if you put enough pressure on Brick Wahl you can get him to crumble. As mentioned above Brick is all about the mental game when it comes to his goal-tending style. However his mental game seems to be what is failing him in tough one on one situations. Brick’s main issue is staying loose, you can tell just by looking at him in these situations that he tenses up. The most likely explanation is that because Brick is a hard worker who has fought for his every achievement, he puts a lot of pressure on himself to be the best. His Uncle Famous VHL Goalie, Brick Wahl, was a hall of famer and there is a lot of pressure on this young prospect to perform. Skating If you are looking for a goalie that is going to haul ass to the bench and gain your critical seconds when trying to get an extra attacker on the ice, Brick is not your man. It’s not that he is terrible at skating; it is just that he is terribly average. And for a game that is played on ice, it is logical to think scouts want to be wowed by a player’s skills, not say “at least he’s not terrible.” It is clear that Brick is aware of this weakness because you can often find him on the ice doing skating drills. If he hopes to make it to the big leagues Wahl will need to continue to upgrade his skills.

He is looking forward to the opportunity and anxiously awaiting his first game.

Who is this JeriCho you keep mentioning? Sounds like that guy had a good sense of humour though lol

Let’s do this!

I am hoping to prove that Brick really is a wall! This is amazing! You followed though on your promise of an amazing graphic

Thanks, I’m sure i will. Ive been having a great time so far

LMAO, I'm sure you did. Good for you supporting the working gals

First of all I would like to thank both Ottawa and Halifax for there generous offers both of your organizations are amazing. However, I have accepted a contract with the Las Vegas Aces, in a hope of proving myself to be a starting goalie. Thanks again for your interest and I'll see you all on the ice. I look forward to working with you @Jubo07

As one of the few ppl with a female upper chest region on this site I can tell you that you never a master of the female upper chest region, you just thought you were lol how can you ever master something if you have to borrow it from a "friend" ?

Awww that's sweet, Thanks. I literally just noticed under your Screen name it says BoobMaster(tm). I am very curious as to how you got your qualifications LMAO.

Thanks, now I have a fancy signature

Another signature for Brick Wahl 2.0! I love how intense this is BOOM. Hopefully Brick lives up to this epic image

Omg I am living for this signature Once i figue out how to add it I will lol

Should i even say shots fired, dosen’t sound like that guy could save them anyway even with the warning.

Well I’m just aiming to lay a solid foundation, who knows with a little luck and elbow grease I just might meetmy goal of being not the most terrible goalie in VHL history.. lol

You better hope I don't catch up, don't know what other Canadian idiosyncrasies i'll force on you when I do

I'm Canadian too! should we start with our customary greeting of over politeness, follow up with a round of "oh no, you first", then grab some Tims and finally end by apologizing when there is absolutely nothing to apologize about.

You never have to be sorry when you are that hilarious. Don't sweat it, I'm not trying to make you out to be the big bad wolf here

Awww come on @McWolf I don't think i will be quite at that level of disaster. I think to be that bad I would have to have problems logging on to the site lol just saying...

Ya but i mean are sequels ever as good or better than the originals? I guess time will tell...

Decided to put together an image for while I'm a free agent in the VHLM. Wonder what team is going to have Brick in their net?

Brick Wahl Rookie Press Conference 1) Since it's not been too long since you've joined the league, what are thoughts on the league so far as a whole? Honestly, I find the League to be very friendly and helpful. It makes it a lot easier when you are starting out if people are willing to help point you in the right direction. 2) Are there any areas in the league that you would like to see a change/improvement? Navigation can be a bit of a struggle when you are new to the site. Everything is there and organized but getting though all the necessary information to become an active player is daunting. 3) The VHLM Newsletter launched earlier this week, did you read it and was it helpful to you? I did not even know it existed, I will probably read it after I finish answering these questions. 4) What are your aims this season in the VHLM? My Goal is to have the Goalie with the best save percentages in the VHLM. 5) With the teams starting to take shape, who do you consider to be the favorite for the VHLM Founders Cup? I think at this point it would be hard to predict who will win the cup, i think it will be easier to see a pattern of what will happen in a week or two. 6a) Is there any player on your VHL team that you're particularly looking forward to playing with when you make the VHL? (For players who were also in the VHL Draft) As a play who missed the draft by mere hours I do not have a team yet, but I think every goalie look forward to having a good d-man in front of them. 6b) What do you think of your current VHLM team? (If you were selected in the VHLM Draft) I don't have a team yet, but I am look forward to see what type of offers i get as a free agent in the VHLM. 6c) If a GM were to make you an offer, what kind of player would they be getting? (If you're currently unaffiliated). They would be getting a goalie who is dedicated to the gamed and not afraid to put in good hard work to get results.

It would be hard to beat the OG so I hear @Advantage

I'll be sure to add the server to my Discord, I'm hoping things will be pretty straight forward.

@McWolf I'll be sure to hit you up if i have any questions, just reading all the articles about getting started at the moment
