Hey, first point!

Damn, rough first game. Gotta win these games.

Hood selected 2nd overall by Dynamo “No, I wouldn’t have believed you. It’s a dream come true just to be drafted, let alone second overall to a historic franchise such as Davos. I couldn’t be happier right now and can’t wait to get things started with the franchise.” That was Las Vegas Aces defensemen Brandon Hood speaking to a reporter immediately after the draft, regarding where he thought he would be a year ago today. Also pointed out in his interview with the reporter was that he knew he had played well during the regular season but didn’t view that as reason to be selected ahead of some of his draftmates. “I figured I would fall a littler lower in the draft to the reputation of some of my draftmates. I know guys like Lawson, St-Laurent, and Lebrunette come with quite the reputation, and I was prepared to see them get their names called before me. I mean it when I say I was truly honored to be selected with such a high pick, and I’m going to do everything in my power to help bring this franchise a championship.” Along with Hood, Davos selected center Joseph Bassolino first overall, and the two are expected to be important pieces in the Dynamo’s rebuild. Dynamo fans have to be please with the results of the draft Tuesday night, netting two great players.

From @CowboyinAmerica: 1: I've been happy with everything in Davos so far. We've got a young team that I can develop with, and think that I will fit in well with the personalities around me, as well as the long term plans of the team. 2: I haven't looked around the league all that much, but that's great to hear. I plan on earning about 10 TPE/week, so I think it's a possibility for sure. It likely won't occur until later in my career though, with guys like Ko Kane and Keaton Louth being drafted a couple seasons before me and hitting there prime sooner. From @Smarch: 1: I expect it will be a rough season for us. As you said, we're a young team that needs to take some time to develop, but the future is bright, and I'm more then willing to go through some hard times in order to get to the good times, which by the looks of things, shouldn't be too far away. While I expect this season we will be near the bottom of the league, we'll only get better with time, and I see us making the playoffs as early as my 3rd season with the team (assuming no roster moves are made).

Was hoping there was a rookie of the year award.

I guess I'm gonna have to ask for Davos.

.1. I'm expecting to go somewhere in the top-4. I've only been contacted by one team, and it was one of the teams in the top-4. I'm also aware of how weak this draft class is. The only guys I could see being taken ahead of me are @diamond_ace, @Smarch, and @FacePuncher. 2. I was thinking the same thing, but after getting 30 TPE from compensation, and 20 from the VHLM achievement tracker, I'm still debating whether it will be best for me to stay down another season, or go straight to the VHL. I'll have to speak with the manager of my VHL team, and go from there. If I do go back down, I'm sure we'll have a much more successful season, and I think I'll have a good shot at winning some awards. 3. It's been pretty good. Having guys like @Spade18 and @diamond_ace around really helped me get acclimated quickly, and I think I'd now be able to do the same thing to anyone who steps into the league next season. Thanks for the questions.

Las Vegas Aces star defensemen, Brandon Hood, is available to answer questions from the media.

Love that there is a new form of earning TPE. Also the affiliation.
