April 18, 2021 Helsinki, Finland Zamboni Driver @Tape-to-Tape currently sporting a 2.88 GAA as well as a .924 SV PCT, is hoping that his efforts this season will culminate in some hardware for himself and the team. Currently leading all starters in SV pct and trailing close behind in goals against average. Driver has been the epitome of consistency this season. He has yet to win a trophy in his VHL career. This season may finally be his breakthrough despite posting slightly worse stats than last season. With the deadline acquisition of James Rose expectations are high in Helsinki and with expectations comes pressure. Nobody feels more pressure than the goalie whether it's fair or not. With this article we're hoping to shine a light on an underappreciated netminder in Driver and hopefully get him the recognition he deserves. @bog <- does that work? No? Okay. All I'm asking is that when the BOG goes to vote on awards, is that they give elite goalie Zamboni Driver the respect he deserves.

If you got transported to an alternate reality would you rather go to one you control or one where you are part of the story line? I want an alternate reality where there is no greater power and everything is randomly left to chance. Oh wait. You are famous in this alternate reality as well, how did you get famous? I got famous by eating tide pods and vlogging about my ER visit. Oh alternate reality, right. What law of physics or general rule or knowledge about our universe would you change in an alternate reality? All people will have super human strength and laser beam eyes. We have been playing fantastic since @MattyIce joined us, he is new and bringing us good luck lets give him some love . Honestly he's been a gem in the locker room from day 1. I have much to learn from him and Emi. What is your best quality as a player and how do you use it to fuel success? My best quality would be being a goid teammate. So meshing well with my teammates and adjusting my playing style to help the team win. Wins over individual stats. You just heart that you are the player that is getting forced to wear the bunny ears at practice, somehow you got too many penalty minutes or not enough shots blocked O.O , how do you react? Tell us all about it I would wear them proudly. But first I would need to cut holes for the ears in my helmet, because safety first.

Goes to his fav NHL team city.

April 11, 2021 Helsinki, Finland The Titans landed defenseman James Rose @MattyIce on Saturday, a week before the Season 77 trade deadline. James Rose coincidentally was drafted by Helsinki in Season 72 and subsequently lost in expansion. Rose departs a struggling Riga team and joins a team with championship aspirations. The hope is James will solidify the Titans defense alongside Emi Rune. With the depth of Helsinki's forward group it will be interesting to see if @Jubo07 deploys two dmen on the first pp unit. Both Rose and Rune have a shoot first mentality so the plan maybe to produce more point shots that either produce more deflection or rebound goals. This also vastly improves a huge question mark which was Helsinki's back end. So full marks to GM Juliann Borwinn on seeing an opening in the EU conference and going for it. James Rose has a career 279 points in 326 games.

If you lost one day of your life every time you said a swear word, would you try not to do it? Could you do it?? I would be dead. I've gotten so used to swearing it's almost painful not to. What is your go to song while in the team shower? Someday by Steve Earle. It really lifts me up after a win or loss. Keeps me level headed so I can rest properly. How would you rate your looks on a scale of 1 to 10? Are you the hottest your team has to offer? If not who is? Probably a 1 think prime Mike Ricci with the greasy hair. I would say Zamboni Driver @Tape-to-Tape is the hottest. Just look at this man. Speaking of birthdays lets pretend it is yours. What type of cake would your prefer and what food are we ordering in to celebrate? Dairy Queen ice cream cake and some quality greek food. What would be your perfect birthday? Small and private or a huge raging party? Start a small celebration at the pub then head home and have a few more. What is the gift on the top of your list for when your birthday comes around? Any woodworking tools I don't already have. Or a gift card/cash so I can go buy more.

Quality

April 2, 2021 Helsinki, Finland Aurelien Moreau is holding his own in his rookie season for the Titans. Currently top 20 in the VHL in the plus minus category, at a +14 rating. Thus far he has met his goal of not being a liability to a team with championship aspirations. A lot of times rookies will come into the league and post decent offensive numbers but be completely clueless in their own end which hurts the team's success. Where Moreau has come in and been okay offensively but absolutely stellar on the penalty kill and in his own end. The main reason for his success is the quality of players Aurelien is playing with as well being put into a position to succeed by the coaching staff and management. As he gains more experience expectation will increase but so far Moreau has been dare I say steady in his rookie season. Posting decent hits and shot block totals as well, for a rookie. This may end up being a jinx thread.
