  1. In the world of ice hockey, where tradition and discipline often reign supreme, Herald Benson emerged as a breath of fresh air at the tender age of 18. Known for his unorthodox playing style, infectious energy, and a personality as vibrant as his neon-colored goalie pads, Benson quickly became a fan favorite and a polarizing figure in the hockey community. Born on a chilly winter morning in the small town of Northridge, Benson's love affair with hockey began at an early age. His parents, avid hockey fans themselves, introduced him to the sport by taking him to local games. It didn't take long for young Herald to become enchanted by the mesmerizing dance of skates on ice and the thunderous applause that echoed through the arena. From the moment he first strapped on a pair of skates, it was evident that Benson was destined for greatness – or at least for something extraordinary. His journey between the pipes started when he was just seven years old, playing for the Northridge Puckheads in the town's youth league. Little did anyone know that this seemingly average suburban kid would redefine the goaltender position in years to come. Benson's rise through the ranks was swift and unconventional. He never adhered to the traditional techniques and strategies that were drilled into young goaltenders. Instead, he developed his own unique style, a blend of acrobatics and sheer instinct that left both coaches and opponents scratching their heads. His signature move, a daring dive across the crease to make an improbable save, earned him the nickname "The Flying Guardian." As he progressed through the youth leagues, Benson's reputation for being a bit "crazy" on the ice began to take shape. He was never afraid to take risks, often leaving the net to play the puck in ways that defied conventional wisdom. While this unbridled enthusiasm led to some unforgettable saves, it also resulted in a fair share of heart-stopping moments for his coaches and teammates. Despite the occasional raised eyebrow from the hockey establishment, Benson's unorthodox approach yielded undeniable results. His lightning-fast reflexes and fearless attitude made him a nightmare for opposing forwards, and his penchant for making highlight-reel saves turned him into a social media sensation. Fans couldn't get enough of his daring antics, and soon, Herald Benson became a household name in the hockey world. At the age of 16, Benson's journey took an unexpected turn when he received an invitation to join the prestigious Northridge Thunder, a junior hockey team known for producing VHL talent. Many doubted whether his unconventional style would translate to success at a higher level, but Benson silenced the skeptics with a stellar debut season. His infectious energy and uncanny ability to steal games endeared him to both teammates and fans alike. Off the ice, Herald Benson was just as captivating. Known for his colorful personality and outlandish sense of style, he quickly became the team's unofficial mascot. Whether he was sporting neon-colored suits or wearing his goalie mask to team events, Benson's larger-than-life presence added a new dimension to the locker room dynamics. His infectious laughter and pranks kept the team's spirits high, even during the most grueling parts of the season. Despite his success, the hockey purists remained skeptical. They argued that Benson's style was unsustainable in the long run, that he was merely a flash in the pan. However, the young goaltender continued to prove them wrong, consistently delivering standout performances and making critical saves when it mattered most. As the VHLM draft approached, Benson's name began circulating in conversations among scouts and analysts. Many were intrigued by the prospect of having a goaltender who could bring a new level of excitement to the game. On draft day, the hockey world held its breath as Benson's name echoed through the arena. The Houston Bulls, known for their innovative approach to the game, selected him in the third round, much to the surprise of those expecting a more traditional choice. Off the ice, Benson's impact extended beyond his goaltending prowess. He became actively involved in community outreach programs, using his status as a professional athlete to inspire the next generation of hockey players. His engaging personality and willingness to connect with fans endeared him to the Houston community, solidifying his place not only as a hockey star but also as a beloved figure off the ice. Herald Benson still however has big dreams of becoming the best goaltender to ever walk the earth. His first bit of adversity has now been brought to him in the form of sharing the net with a teammate at such a low level with his teammate Ondrej Vencko. Both goalies show promise with 2 very different styles. But only one will prove to be anything special once playoffs come. And Herald Benson refuses for it to not be him.

  14. Usually it just takes me getting in the right mind set. So often times it just requires me to take some time to relax in the hot and cold tubs Hot and Cold tub do wonders. Sauna's are amazing too. But most of all just watching netflix. Biggest strength is my ability to skate with anyone. I'm not very good at really anything else besides positioning and skating I want to be the best skater and positional player I can be before I really look to improve other parts of my game. They seem pretty chill. Would love to get re-drafted by them, but only time will tell. Bo-Jack Horseman Chest and back are probably the most fun for myself personally LA Michael Cera
