More press conference questions!

(For the week starting 07/06)

 

1. The Continental Cup features a team that took the least amount of games and a team that took the most amount of games to get there. Who has the upper hand?

2. In your opinion, who was the VHL regular season MVP?

3. Up to this point, who would your vote go to for VHL playoff MVP?

4. Which one of the expansion teams do you expect to have the most successful inaugural season?

5. If you were to be left unprotected in the expansion draft, which one of the expansion teams would you rather have to pick you?

6. With another season almost in the books, how do you expect the Menace to finish next season?

 

1. Im not too sure who that favours, but I got Calgary winning it.

2. I have no clue to be honest. Its a close race honestly, but I have to go with our goalie. Might be a bit bias but oh well.

3.  Sigard Gunnar. Guys a scoring machine.

4. I honestly dont know. I think whoever gets off to the best start will have an edge over the others.

5. I like the Los Angelos Stars the most I think.

6. Im hoping we can keep on working hard and improve next season

For the week ending 5/31:

 

1. We've gotten off to a hot start! Do you think this is something we can keep up?

2. What are your thoughts on your individual production so far?

3. It's early, but we're right up with the top teams in the European Conference! Which European team do you think is our biggest threat?

4. wHaT's YoUR pReGaMe RiTUaL LmAo How do you feel about our press conference questions? What kind of questions do you want to answer--more league-related stuff, more related to real life, more specific, more general? Are things fine the way they are?

5. Early on last season, I asked how everyone was handling their own quarantine situations. I'm here to ask it again--are you doing OK in real life? What are you doing to pass the time?

6. One person in the league gives you their login information and tells you to make any one post you want. Who is it and what do you post?

 

@Quik @Acydburn @DirtyDerek @ColeMrtz @Frank @Sonnet @McWolf @Alex Bridges @David O'Quinn @Ahma @Josh @Brrbisbrr @PadStack

1. I think we can. We're looking good so far and I dont see it changing.

2. I wish I could have more minutes to help the team, but im satisfied with my production.
3. Moscow

4. I literally don't care, I'm just here because the coach told me to be. And I want that thicccc 2 TPE.

5. Its going alright, getting kind of boring to be honest.

6. @Enorama or @Cusemode and i would probably post "HUR HUR HUR"

For the week ending 5/17! Finally I get some question ideas that aren't stupid.

 

1. Davos is already in the free agent game, trading for the rights to Acyd Burn and staring intently at ACL TEAR, who was allowed yesterday to enter the market early. What is the number one reason, to you, why @Acydburn and @Quik should sign with us?

2. A thing or two is being shifted around, and it's starting to look like Davos will make a run at greatness. Is it possible that we break into the league's top tier this season?

3. Prospects Alex Bridges and Vin Calia have made their way up from the VHLM! What do you do to welcome them?

4. The draft lottery went exactly as I hoped, as Davos is now in control of picks 1, 2, and 4 in this draft. Do I pick Hornet and Winter, like I said I would, or do I say "sike" and do other things?

5. When do you think you will hit your peak as a player, personally? Which season?

6. You have to explain the VHL to someone who's never heard of it. What do you tell them?

 

@DirtyDerek @Frank @Tyler @Ahma @Josh @Brrbisbrr @xDParK @Acydburn @Alex Bridges @VinCal @PadStack

 

1. I think our future is looking bright and in a few years we will be one of the top dogs in the VHL

2. I think its definitely possible, we got a good group of guys over here

3. I'll definitely congratulate them when I see them. Making the jump is tough but its a lot of fun

4. Im not too sure to be honest. I haven't really looked at the draft class this year, but im sure whoever we get will be great

5. I have no idea, hopefully it hasnt happened yet

6. I tell them that is a online hockey sim league

For the week ending 5/10:

 

1. It will be the offseason for a while longer. How do you plan on spending your sim-checking time?

2. Which of our prospects do you think has the best future with Davos? If you're unfamiliar with our prospect pool, go here and take a look at the "finances" tab to see everyone we've got in the minors.

3. The first round of the playoffs ended, and we saw Moscow beat Malmo, Riga beat Prague, Vancouver beat Calgary, and Seattle beat DC. Are you surprised by any of these?

4. Another GM tries to tamper you. Who would you be least surprised to see in your DMs? 

5. @Josh is trying to get you in on his crazy skin-care routine. What did he tell you to put on your face this morning?

6. This season marks the second season of my own leadership in Davos. What do you like? What don't you like? Is there anything you'd like to see me do for the team that I'm not doing right now?

 

@RunnerBert11 @DirtyDerek @Thranduil @Frank @cpetrella @Tyler @Ahma @Josh @Brrbisbrr @xDParK @StamkosFan

 

1. I have no idea. I have an addiction to checking sim results. Luckily it only takes me a few minutes per day haha.

2. Im a big fan of @Alex Bridges and @Ferda . They've been lighting it up this year and i have no doubt they can make the transition to the big league. I also think @PadStack could be a huge part of the team in a couple of years. Also I can't leave @Lockdown Defense out of the conversation. His growth from last season to this season has been really nice to see. He could definitely help out our back end for years to come.

3. Not really to be honest. I was kinda hoping DC would take down Seattle, because I still have a few friends over there, but it just wasn't meant to be.

4. Definitely @Enorama, that guy is nothing but trouble over there. 

5. I really wasn't listening to be honest. All I remember him saying as that he found a new use for mustard.

6. I am content with everything right now. You're doing a good job, and I really like the direction this team is heading.

For the week ending 5/3:

 

1. DAVOS HAS THREE OF THE TOP FOUR PICKS IN THE DRAFT. Which superstars do we need? Who on this list looks good to you?

2. The team goes out for dinner one last time for the season. Which player do you make pay for your food, and do you go all in or as cheap as possible?

3. What's something that you do on a regular basis that most other people do not?

4. You get to master any one musical instrument, instantly. What do you pick?

5. With Malmo and Helsinki both rebuilding, the bottom of the European Conference might not be so obvious. Who finishes last? Do we finally crawl out of it?

6. Who wins the Cup this season? Davos, Helsinki, New York, and Toronto have been eliminated.

 

@RunnerBert11 @DirtyDerek @Thranduil @Frank @cpetrella @Tyler @Ahma @Josh @Brrbisbrr @xDParK @StamkosFan

 

1. I haven't looked too much into the draft at this point. Just been focusing on the season. But from the quick look I had, I would go with SS Hornet, Latrell Mitchell and I like Gino DiGiannantonio.

2. I'm making Roque pay 100%. With the season he is having, he should be getting PAID soon. But I would keep it as cheap as I can for him.

3. I play a lot of video games. Its basically my season and offseason time killer. Get on with the boys and just play.

4. I would pick the piano. Always wanted to learn it but just never had the time.

5. I think we got what it takes to crawl out of it. I could see Helsinki falling into the bottom though.

6. That's a tough one. If I had to pick, I would say at this point you would have to favour Vancouver. But I like DC as a dark horse.

For the week ending 4/26:
 

1. The trade deadline has passed us by, and the one move made by team management was to ship out @Anthony Matthews for inactive Pat Svoboda and a 3rd-round pick. How will our former noted press conference critic do in Vancouver--better, as he's playing with better players, or worse, because he's no longer the team's highest-TPE player?

2. You hear noises coming from your locker, so you look over. Pekka Pouta (@Snussu) just retired, and you think he's walking out with some of your stuff. What do you look for first, to make sure it's still there?

3. We picked up a 4-1 win over New York today! What are you doing to celebrate?

4. Speaking of New York, they are, most unfortunately, one of the league's best teams as of late, surging out of the bottom of the standings and threatening to make the playoffs in the NA conference. Do they succeed, and if so, how do I handle the pain of not having 3 of the draft's top 4 picks?

5. Roque Davis is having a great season, leading all rookies in points and most recently breaking into the top 5 for all defensemen. What type of player do you feel he needs to support him and help him run up the numbers even more in coming seasons?

6. Every single person on Reddit suddenly decides that they no longer want to click the VHL link. Recruitment slows to a crawl, and the league is forced to contract, picking Davos as a target for no good reason. Now that you're without a team, where do you hope you end up when our leftovers are moved elsewhere?

 

@RunnerBert11 @DirtyDerek @Thranduil @Frank @cpetrella @Tyler @Ahma @Josh @Brrbisbrr @xDParK @StamkosFan

1. I hope he does well out there.

2. Ill just let him go. Can't be worth much anyways.

3. Big win. Its nice to start beating some decent teams.

4. I really hope they dont make it. Im not a big fan of them over there.

5. Yeah, he is having a hell of a season. Its nice to see, thats for sure. Im not sure the exact piece but if we can find another d partner that compliments him, i think they could be lethal.

6. Yikes, thatd be brutal. I have no clue how to even answer that one to be honest.
