Post Draft Press Conference week ending March 22 2020 1. The draft has come and gone for S71. How do you think the Rush did in this draft? Give them a letter grade. 2. There are a lot of familiar faces back in the Yukon including Zyrok, Ray Sheilds, Mickey Dickson and Vin Calia. Who will have the bigger impact this season? 3. The Rush locker also has a lot of new faces. Which newbie is going to make the biggest impact on the ice? What about in the LR? 4. Which VHLM team is the biggest threat to the Rush this season? 5. Should the Rush sign any free agents during the off season? If so, who? 6. What’s your favourite activity while being quarantined for 2 weeks?

Welcome @klogfan17! We here on the Yukon Rush would love to offer you a contract to join our contending team. You’ll be starting off with 3rd pairing minutes but could very easily move up the line up if you’re active. We will be contending this season for a chance to win a championship and think you could be a key piece in helping us achieve that. There is a 12-hour window before an offer can be accepted, so please take your time, consider all offers, and pick the team that’s best for you. If you decide that team is the Rush then quite this offer and comment “accept” and we will get you on the roster! Goodluck! Ricer13 Yukon AGM

KRICE'S S71 VHLM DRAFT RANKINS: TOP 5 Hello everyone, welcome to my top 5 draft rankings for the upcoming VHLM draft. I am going to rank my top five prospects and give a breakdown of each player and why I feel they deserve to be in that position. This is only my opinion and in no way shape or form does that make it right but I appreciate you taking the time to read it anyways. So with my first pick in the upcoming draft I would choose.... #1 - @Zyrok - 180 TPE Zyrok I have slotted in the number 1 position in this draft. The reason being is because he is a defenseman. Everyone is in dire need for a top defenseman and with the abundance of wingers in this league, I think the need for defenseman give Zyrok12 the edge. Zyrok has 180 TPE which isn't to far off the number one ranked Proto who currently sits at 195 TPE. He is a smooth skating offensive defenseman who split the last season between the Yukon Rush and Ottawa Lynx where he went to the Founder Cup finals where he ended up losing to the Minnesota Storm. When given top line minutes in the Yukon Zyrok was producing points at an alarming rate being that he was given top pairing minutes. When he made the move over to Ottawa he played less minutes and that's where we saw his point production drop off. Whomever takes Zyrok in this upcoming draft is going to be happy they did because this number 1 defenseman is going to be lighting up the scoreboard in season 71. #2 - @Proto - 190 TPE Second on my list is Proto. Proto is coming off of a championship winning season with the Minnesota Storm. He was picked up as a waiver signing and contributed significantly as a supporting role player on a deep Minnesota team. This goal scoring winger is going to be getting a promotion this season as he will surely be playing top line minutes and ripping up this league before making the jump to the VHL. Proto had a modest 38 points in 66 regular season games but where he shined the most was in the post season. He racked up 18 points in 14 games during their championship run. I am sure the trait of stepping up when the games count the most is one that will get any GM excited to pick this player. #3 - @McWolf - 170 TPE Third on my list is center SS Hornet. Centres are a vital piece of any team and SS Hornet has to be the best one available in this draft. He came into the league as a waiver signing late into the season but came in and dominated for Houston. He played 22 games and in those 22 games he scored 22 points including 6 goals. He made is impact right away for the Houston Bulls but when the playoffs came around he fizzled out a bit only scoring 3 points during their 8 games. Houston wasn't as deep as some of the other top VHLM teams so I wouldn't let SS Hornets stats in the playoffs scare you from taking a chance on this future elite centre. He is sure to step into the lineup next season and be the number 1 guy for the team that drafts him. #4 - @Pengu - 167 TPE Next on my list I have another centreman. Pengu centered the top line on the Halifax 21sts for the majority of the season. The 21sts were not a competitor this season but that gave ample opportunity for Pengu to rack up the points. In his first season as a waiver signing Pengu scored 62 points in 54 games played. He only scored 10 goals in that time but his 154 shots shows encouraging signs that his goal total will improve as long as he keeps shooting the puck. Another positive for the team who takes Pengu is that he is apparently a great locker room presence. If Halifax had the opportunity to move up and draft him I know they would in a heart beat as he left quite the impression on the team. # 5 - @Zetterberg - 149 TPE This last pick to round out the top 5 was a tough one for me to make. The reason I went with Ray Sheilds is because there is an abundance of wingers in this draft and in this league. Ray plays center and in my opinion you can not have to many of those. Ray played 57 games last season between Yukon and Houston. He went from playing first lines minutes and racking up points in the Yukon to playing a more shutdown role in Houston and his point totals reflect that. He had only 26 points those 57 games but was a +12 showing off the defensive side of his game. The team that drafts Ray will be getting a two way center that will contribute on both ends of the ice and can slot in on any teams top line for the next season or two. Honorable Mentions I wanted to take a second to mention others who could have easily slotted into the top 5. Robin Winter @Sonnet is an excellent goal scoring winger who I feel deserves a little spotlight. The only knock I have is that there is an abundance of wingers otherwise Robin is going to be an elite winger in the near future. Another player I wanted to mention is winger Valtteri Vaakanainen @Jubo07 and defenseman Randy Marsh @oilmandan who are going to be studs in the near future as well. Well that wraps up my S71 VHLM Top Five Draft Rankings. I hope this gave you some insight on each player and why I think they deserve to be in the top 5. Again this is my opinion and I welcome you to comment below telling me who you think your top 5 would be! Thanks for tuning in! WORD COUNT: 1000 WORDS

Yukon Rush Press Conference week ending March 22 2020 1. The VHLM Draft is on Monday, March 16. The Rush have the 2nd and 5th overall picks, who should they take and why? 2. The top two prospects in the VHLM are Proto and Zyrok, Who will be taken first overall? 3. The Rush have made many trades lately that signifies they want to win now. Do you have faith in this management group to bring a title to the Yukon? 4. A philosophy I like about the VHLM is that it isn't just about winning titles but more so about the new players joining the league and wanting them to have fun. Do you agree with this player comes first mentality? or do you think winning championships at this level is more important? Get to know you questions of the week! 5. Covid-19 is shutting the world down including sports, schools, etc. What do you plan on doing with this downtime? 6. What are your thoughts on people losing their minds and buying all the toilet paper? and what about the people trying to create financial gain off this by selling toilet paper for more than what their worth on buy and sell sites? (I think its ridiculous and very scumbaggish)

Congrats Everyone! Let the games begin ?
