1) One goal games coming back to haunt us again in round 1. Do we pull off the comeback in the series? I don't think so, these small mistakes are brutal and a team like Moscow not only knows how to properly punish us, but maintain that momentum too. 2) What are you most looking forward to in the off-season? Chilling with the boys. 3) Do you have a personal goal for S73? Creating more opportunities for my teammates. I feel like I have a play-style that's way too selfish 4) If you weren't on Helsinki, which Titan would you never want to meetup with in a fight? Probably me, I have nasty combos and can put people to sleep like it's nobody's business. 5) What is your to go hot beverage? Coffee for sure. I love winding down after a long day with a nice medium double double. 6) What is/was your best subject in school? Definitely introduction to programming logic.

1) It looks like we are a lock for the post season! Who are you hoping to meet in round 1? (Moscow or Davos) I'd love to meet Davos, I know we have a lot of history with that team in the post season and keeping that tradition going would be great. 2) Have you met a seasonal goal in season 72? I haven't, but I know I'll have time to improve in the off season and try to hit it next season. 3) Which retiring player will you personally miss the most in S73? (Rodriguez, Strong, Fontenette, Johnson) I'll miss all of them honestly, they all taught me so much and everything I learned was so valuable in helping me develop into becoming a better player. 4) If you were an expansion GM which positional need would you aim to fill first? I would try to find a good goaltender first. The impact of having a first rate goaltender can't be ignored. A great example of this is with VGK making the Stanley Cup in their inaugural season when they signed Marc-Andre Fleury 5) Are you currently into any mobile games? Not really, I've always been a desktop kind of guy, but I will admit I enjoyed Angry Birds when it was popular. 6) If you could have a plane ticket to go anywhere in the world, where would you go? New Zealand, they have COVID figured out and I'm jealous.

1) Week two in the books and we lead the European Conference! Are you surprised to see us in this position? No, I know we've been working hard to make up for our mess of a season last year, and I know Jubo's done a lot to add more depth to our roster. 2) When playing on the road what is something you miss from home? Mr. Sub (RIP ) 3) Do you like to listen to music in the locker room before games? Yes, I have a playlist of all of Taylor Swift's songs and I blast that shit on repeat. 4) Who has been our unsung hero thus far? Probably Jared Spaz, he was my teammate on the Reapers and I don't think he gets anywhere near the credit he deserves. 5) If the guys went out for karaoke after a game would you go up and sing? Yes, I have a beautiful singing voice and was a soprano in my high school choir. 6) What is your favorite movie trilogy or franchise? The dollars trilogy (The Good, the Bad and the Ugly). I think Clint Eastwood and Lee Van Cleef were fantastic in those movies.

1) Week one in the books. Are you happy with your personal performance thus far? Yeah I think I'm doing really well and have made a lot of improvements from last season. 2) What has been the most welcome improvement to the team this season? Just speaking for me personally, I think my skating has improved tremendously. 3) Who do you project as our conference rival? I project Riga will be our conference rival. Our teams have met several times in the playoffs in the past and almost all of them went to game 7. 4) If you did not excel at hockey, which sport would you have tried to go pro at? Spike ball. 5) What brand of stick do you use? Sherwood. My trusty Sherwood T1000 has never let me down. 6) How often do you get your skates sharpened? I usually get them sharpened every 3-4 weeks. We usually practice for an hour each day during the week and I find it's usually around 3 weeks of skating that my skates start to wear out.

1) Training camp opens on Monday. How do you feel about being back on the ice after a short break? I feel great. I think I had a lot of time to review my performance from last season and I think I'm ready to take on more responsibility this season. 2) In your opinion what is the most optimistic improvement the team has made in the offseason? I think just our team finally being on the same page is huge. Last season we felt really scattered in terms of what areas we wanted to focus on but this season I think we all have a good idea of what our strengths are and what we need to do to play on those. 3) How many goals and points do you project our rookie Valtteri Vaakanainen to have? A lot. In all seriousness I think he could get around 8-9 with ~20 assists if he's not on our top 2 lines. 4) Who on the roster has the most improved team? I think I have honestly. This season was a big smack in the face coming from the VHLM and I think I have a much better idea of what I need to do to stay competitive against such talented players. 5) What is the last thing you ordered online? Riot Points. Don't @ me. 6) It's breakfast time, what would be your perfect breakfast? 2 lightly buttered pieces of toast with 2 sunny side up eggs, a couple pieces of bacon and some nicely cooked hashed browns on the side.

1) The off-season is upon us. Are you more excited for the draft or seeing trade activity? I'm excited for the draft. I know someone getting drafted and I couldn't be more happy for him. 2) If we were to test free agency which position would you like to see us strengthen? I'd like to see us strengthen our wings. Don't ask me why I'd just like it. 3) With training camp opening next week what will you be focusing on improving? I'll be focusing on improving my speed, I feel like I'm struggling to keep up with these faster forwards in the VHL. 4) If we had a snack bar post game, which snack would you be excited to see on the menu? Snickers. 5) Does your player live in an apartment, condo or house? I live in a 2 bedroom apartment. 6) What car does your player drive? I drive a 1994 Toyota Corolla.
