2. Keep it simple and the same. Why change what has been working? 4. NHL by far, even if my team is out. I would say that I will watch about 60-70% of all NHL playoff games. 5. I think it is a great accomplishment for the team, but the focus as to shift to the playoffs and beyond. 7. Days are getting longer and the weather is getting nicer. 8. I am the most hated when sharing a pizza because I always try to get the Hawian pizza (Pineapple and Ham). 9. Probably a plane, a small one (4 seater) just to go flying around my town.

1. I plan to do another episode of my Podcast this week. It has been about 6 weeks, so I am overdue. 2. I think we are in good shape right now, so I would not change anything. 4. I think we will give this league a run for its money. We just need to keep doing what we are doing. 6. I enjoy the whole season. I enjoy seeing my player progress through the season; it doesn't hurt that we are doing well as a team. 7. I really like the logo and would not change it. 8. My sticks are all taped the same way I have always taped them, black tape on top and white tape on the blade.

1. I am doing about as well as I thought. Need to be a little more active to help gain more TPE. 2. I am very happy with where the team is right now... we need to just keep pushing and winning. 4. I am not convinced that a tinted vision give a play that much of an advance, so I probably would not wear one. 6. I have been a Washington Capitals fan for years. I am obviously following Ovechkin's quest to win the goal-scoring title. 8. I will watch the SuperBowl no matter who is playing, but I would be even more into it if the Rams are playing. 10. I would probably just bring a ton of BBQ meats.

1. I am a team person first, so I would go with winning the VHL championship and having terrible stats. 2. Despite question one, I would want to get my player into the Hall of Fame. 4. I would want to be able to travel when and where I want. I don't mind learning things the old fashion way. 5. I would like to go back in time, not to 'fix' any mistakes, but to experience things over again. 8. Gaining invisibility is the ultimate superpower to me. 6. I would like to find a genie in the bottle so I could gain invisibility and go back in time.

1. Well, considering I was one of the people in the trade, I am very happy to be part of the trade, but more happy to be part of this team. 2. The Off-season has been a bit slow, but it is starting to ramp up as I prepare for the next season. 3. This will be my first season in the VHL, so I am looking to get my feet wet and hopefully, start producing some point. 4. I am focusing on being a goal scorer, but I am also looking to be a team contributor in any way I can. 5. Anything is good as long as the whole team is involved. I am not sure a night out drinking is the best thing, but I would not say no. 6. Spend time with the family and get some R&R.

1. We are definitely disappointed but we are proud of what we did this season. 2. I really was hoping that Ottawa could pull this one out. Sometimes the universe has other plans. 3. Train hard and stay ready for next season. Depending on where I am at the start of next season will determine if I am ready to move up. 4. I plan to keep improving and hopefully advance to the VHL. Although I would not be too disappointed to be here next season. 5. I am really looking forward to spending some time with family/friends and just enjoying the time off. 6. I just want to stay healthy and rest up for the next season. Really looking forward to what next season has to offer me.

1. Actually, we played better than I expected. I was expecting the win, but not a sweep. I am very happy with the results. 2. Well, I was hoping to pull this one out, but we fought hard and played a good series. Very proud of this team. 3. All I could hope for was to keep playing our game. We have a great team. 4. I feed off of both the booing and cheering. I want to play hard for our home crowd and upset the crowd when we play away. 5. I would have loved to see us play Ottawa. 6. I am not too particular about the actual restaurant as long as we dine as a team and load up on those carbs, so probably a good Italian place.

1. I think we are in really good shape. We are top of the league and playing well. No concerns here. 2. I am not playing as well as I would like, but I did expect my numbers to go down since a lot of talent was being brought back in with the closure of the VHLE. 3. Absolutely. There is much more competition and the standings are close, but I am excited to see how we do. 4. I am trying to model after Peter Bondra. I loved his playing style and how he took charge of his position. 5. I would not change a good thing, especially as we move into the playoffs. 6. I think we are going to lose some players as they advance in their careers. I am hoping that I can improve enough to move up to the VHL over the off-season, but if I am still here, I hope to put up some better numbers.

1. I think the team is positive and really coming together. Overall, I believe that we're all happy where we are and where we are going. 2. Stay the course. Keep doing what works. 3. I am pretty simple, try to sleep in a bit, wake up to a good size breakfast, then morning stretches followed by some off-ice conditioning. 4. Quietly... I am not a big Halloween person. 5. I had a super detailed steampunk costume that I have used for multiple Halloween parties. 6. Pumpkin pie... no question. I like apple pie, but pumpkin is way better.

1. I think spirits are still good. It is a long season and we have a long way to go. 2. A toque is a must for pre-game attire, but on ice, we get pretty warm, so just a thermal shirt, maybe a turtleneck, will do. 3. Just play our game and we will be fine. I try not to focus on who we play and just be consistent. 4. I am a pumpkin guy so anything pumpkin works. 5. I am an old-school music guy, so new music is not my thing. I just need so good 80's alternative to get me going. 6. I am not a Halloween person, so no big plans for me. I will just hand out candy so my house doesn't get egged.

1. I want to improve my player and score some goals. I really just want to be productive for the team. 2. With all the talent that has come back into the VHLM, that is going to be a really tough task. I hope so. 3. I try to focus on where I am underperforming and look for things to work. The difficult thing is when you think you are doing thing right and still not preforming. Just got to work through it. 4. I know for me, scoring is way down. I hope to find a place where I can be productive. 5. I am a very picky eater, but my go-to meal is chicken parmesan with lots of pasta. Carb loading for the win. 6. Passing, Scoring, and Skating - I want to be a top goal scorer. Very loosely model myself after Peter Bondra.

1. I have loved being on this team. I think it has been a good fit for me and look to do good things going forward. 2. There could be many, but I will pick Coldplay's Trouble. 3. I think we are gearing up for a repeat. I think the energy is good and I can't wait for this season to start. 4. If it is done right, Philly cheesestakes are the best thing ever. Got to get it with peppers and onions. 5. I expect my player to be a top-middle player... maybe even one of the top players if I can keep my TPE earnings up. There is a lot of talent coming down from the VHLE, so I know it is going to get tough on the leaderboards. 6. Every year, I play in a tournament in Phoenix, which is pretty much the highlight of my year. It is a fun all-skill-level hockey event where you get drafted on to a team and play 5 games over 2 days. It is a blast.
