  9. Very Excited to be selected 10th overall and cant wait to join the Toronto Legion. Glad to have 2 other Hounds join me in the Legions Draft class this Season!
  10. Was a great first season for me glad i chose to come to the Hounds, Between Gustav and all the guys on the team i learned a ton and couldn't have picked a better place to start!
  11. Probably my best one so far but last Hounds Graphic as i head into Both Drafts!
  12. The Founders Cup is going home with Saskatoon as the VHLM playoffs come to a close. in a 4-1 series Saskatoon ended Mississauga's hope to win their first Founders cup, but Mississauga still has something to celebrate as the Hounds made the finals the first seaon! Despite not beating Saskatoon to cap off their season this is a great step for the organization. The Hounds have a few players getting ready for the VHL Draft and among them is winger Justin Graves. Graves will also be Eligible for the VHLM draft as he made his debut with the Hounds late in the season on just a 1 season pre draft contract to allow him to get some experience under his belt. Graves teammates has said the rookie has listens well and really takes in the tips the give him and he has really become a much better player sense he first joined the team, also not to be forgotten in his growth is the excellent coaching staff in Mississauga. As the off season is here Graves cant contain his excitement for the Draft, He will be happy to be selected by any team and after the draft he just wants to get in and start gelling with his new teammates! Graves thanks the Hounds for giving him a chance to Dawn their jersey and get his taste of the VHLM!
  13. 1.i think Kris Rice had the most impact for the team hes a great captain. 2. yea just told them that they had a great season and good luck next year. 3. Once i find out where ill be playing i just wanna get settled with the team and hope to continue getting better like i have this season! 4.Its tough i think we could have took the series longer. 5. im really excited for the draft so i just wanna train and get stronger and ready for the next season. 6. Dick Cheezy hes had a good season for us and i think he will get selected late first round to 2nd round
  14. Justin Graves Ahead of the Draft Name:Justin Graves Position:Right Wing Age:22 Height:5'11 Weight:194 lbs S70 Draft Eligible Pros Playmaking - While Graves didn't finish with a high number of assists in the regular season he did play a big role in the breakout with the Hounds as his crisp tape to tape passes are hard to pick off and he has great vision to find his guys on the move in the neutral zone. he has also proved that he is getting better in the offensive zone in the playoffs, his growth here played a big part in the first round against the Ottawa Lynx and now has 3 assists in 12 playoff games vs his 4 assists in 27 games this regular season. Defensive minded - on of Graves best ability's is in the defensive end, he is rarely out of position and isn't afraid to use his body to create turnovers, although this has caused him to accumulate 12 penalty minutes in the regular season and 8 so far in playoffs he will need to get his discipline under to continue be dominant here but has shown lots of promise and under the Hounds coaching staff he has improved here immensely as defense use to be one of his weakest areas. Cons Discipline- Graves biggest issue is his discipline he takes to many penalties when reaching for the puck and laying the body which comes into play with his defensive skill if he really wants to make a quality player in the defensive end he needs to be more disciplined. he is also known to take penalties in after the whistle in the scrum which can cost his team. Consistency - Graves has played some good games and some bad but has failed to string anything together and one of the biggest things in question heading to the draft is can he become consistent enough to play in the VHL. even in the playoffs graves hasn't been consistent and what ever team drafts him will take a risk on him to make an effect for a full season. Strength- Graves small 5'11 194 pound frame lacks strength as a smaller player he needs to get into the gym to help keep him on his feet. Scouts Advice Whatever team takes Graves in the VHL draft will need to try to settle his nerves to find some consistency in him and work on his aggressiveness after the whistle. in the off season some time in the gym working on his strength would benefit him alot. He will defiantly need to spend a full season in the VHLM before a team can judge whether he is ready for the VHL.
  15. Graves is one of the top 20 prospects in the upcoming draft. He joined Mississauga late in the season and has added some quality depth to the Hounds roster, he has played his best games in the playoffs so far showcasing everything he has learned in Mississauga to make him a better player. Graves growth through this short stint with Mississauga has shown that they have one of the best training facilities in the VHLM as well as a dedicated coaching staff! Graves will be Eligible for both the VHL and VHLM draft, Graves has already noted returning to Mississauga after the draft is his hope in the VHLM but he would also love to return home to Halifax with the 21st. Graves has also been seen meeting with a couple VHL teams discussing his future and potential with the clubs if they where to select him at the draft, the meetings have been with the D.C. Dragons and the Prague Phantoms. Graves has made it clear that no matter where he lands in the VHL he will be ecstatic just to be drafted, Graves is hoping to meet with more teams before the draft but said after the meeting with Prague he thinks he would fit very well in their system!
  16. +10 For Justin Graves
  17. 1. what stood out to me is that i could contribute well with the team and its proving that im getting better in Mississauga 2.i think itll be a real tight series and have us come out on top in 7 games 3.Ben storm and Liam rooney are guys we really have to keep an eye on and i believe Ben Storm will play best against us! 4.i think we will shut down Benson Kramer keeping him shut down will help us alot. 5. i would match up best against Leon Gutzwiler we have a good size comparison 6.i think itll be Kris Rice performing the best but Patrick Tallinder could be the guy as well
  18. with the 12 days of christmas you get extra tpe and can still claim your weeks tpe so your getting more tpe then a free week plus a chance at a real life prize I dont see anything wrong with it and sense they didnt seem to need the donation money the used it on prizes for the MEMBERS so why be upset about it they could have just kept it and divided it between themselves. i perfer this over the EFL and SBAs free week, as once i use the free week im capped and cant earn any extra if i wanted to, and they cant buy everyone a gift so they bought a few things and its not like the people that donated didnt get the reward you already get for donating, it seem your upset cause you yourself didnt get anything because if you where chosen you wouldnt have made this post lol
  19. Right winger Justin Graves joined the Mississauga Hounds late in the year playing in 27 games helping the hounds to a second place finish this year! In his 27 games he tallied two goals and four assist and was +12 slotting in 3rd and 4th line minutes, Graves has been heard saying hes really happy with his short season and felt he did a good job making a name for himself on a very talented Hounds roster. Playoffs for Graves and the Hounds started off against the Ottawa Lynx, The hounds managed a 4 game sweep on the Lynx with Graves being a big help to the team with a goal and two assists in his first few playoff games, The winger will be looking to continue his effort in the next series where they expect to take on Mexico. If Graves can continue his strong play through the playoffs and possibly help the Hounds to a Championship this season he will greatly improve his draft number for both the VHL and VHLM! Graves has also stated he hopes to get drafted to a rebuilding team giving him a chance to move to the VHL a little quicker although he still plans on being in the VHLM next season!
  20. 1. Very happy i think we did really well and i was able to slot in and help make a difference in some wins! 2. I think we can make it to the finals with Saskatoon and from there i feel it could go either way! 3.Id say its a little bit of both with the cap rising your seeing the better players get even better and the competition this year didn't seem to match whats on our roster! 4.This year will be me and my GFs first Christmas together and in our first home so we are pretty excited! 5.maybe in the futrure but for now id just like to improve as a player. 6.Id say ill be spending more time in the VHL!
  21. thanks!
