Philadelphia Reapers Press Conference
Spence King replied to BladeMaiden's topic in Team Press Conferences
Philadelphia Reapers S72 Press Conference #2 For week ending May 31 Answer 6 for 2 TPE! 1) So far after 8 games the Reapers are sitting 2nd place in the VHLM at 6-2-0 , With Minnesota giving us our two losses. What is it going to take to get the W next time we match up ? 2) What part of your game are your focusing on the most, and what kind of exercise/Drills or off ice practice are you using? 3) The reapers PR team are looking for a new season slogan, give your best season slogan idea 4) This season were handing out a “Cape” as a hardworker/Player of the game , as a replacement for the stereotypical “Hard Hat” if you were to pass the “Cape” on after the game who would you give it to and why ? 5) The Reapers are one of the only rosters that have yet to name Captains and there have been no rumors as to if the Reapers will eventually put letter on the jersey. Who are you top picks for leaders and who would you want to see wearing the letters ? 6) Where looking for ideas for a special theme night with special jersey to commemorate or in dedication to a good cause. What Jersey would you like to see made to spread awareness to and why ? -

May 15 2020, The day has finally come and its VHL draft day , Spencer Elsby rookie defenseman previously drafted late 35th overall by Philly into the S71 VHLM with only a shaky first 8 games of experience in S70 at the end of the year for Mississauga after coming to North America. Elsby However busted his ass all summer after being drafted by Philadelphia and made it a personal goal of his to be a 1st round draft pick in the S72 VHL draft. Elsby did everything and more, were talking a player who at the beginning of he season was a 3rd pairing D just there to learn and soak like a sponge. Which he did within a month Elsby had already started making a name for himself not only in Philadelphia but around the league. When the 1st round of Draft ranking was released Elsby was the highest listed Reaper sitting at 17!! Throughout the year Elsby’s developmental pace continued to skyrocket and it was evident every game you could see he was more confident and overall a much more skilled player , his ceiling Is endless. Now the day before VSN made an extensive and in depth mock draft and they draft experts had Elsby at 12th Overall and that would indeed make him a first round pick. The draft experts were unanimous that Elsby was a top 12 talent and all five had him at 12 or higher. However as the draft starts rolling on we get to pick 10 and Moscow makes a surprise pick with Alex Letang @Spartan ( Elsby’s Best friend/Rival) the two had been battling it out to see who would get picked first. After that things continued to follow in strange suit as pick 12 passes and Elsby has yet to be taken , and with pick 13, not taken, 14….15……16 !? and Elsby is still on the board looks like the surefire pick but now , the VHL world was surprised to year Elsby’s teammate and and late season joiner with MUCH less TPE Liam Flatten was selected at 16!! Now this is where things get weirder, Elsby was recruited by Helsinkis GM when he was 15 to come over and play the VHLM , all season Helsinki knew they were taking Valterri Vaakainen 1st round as he is there GMs player, Helsinki mentioned several times how they wish things where different and he had another 1st or high 2nd and he would have the opportunity to draft Elsby. With all the draft experts saying theirs no way Elsby goes past 12 , definitely got @Jubo07 a steal at pick seventeen , Helsinki had no idea this player would still bee available to them and did they ever get a steal , a fellow countrymen and a future HOFr

March 18th at 8 PM marked the Live opening of the S72 VHLM draft , also the first VHLM draft newly hired assistant general manager in Philadelphia Spencer Elsby Sr’s and what an experience it was. Elsby was quoted after the draft “I could not be any more pleased with the way the draft fell into place and how things played out , I think all teams were a little shocked that no goalies went in the 1st round as I know we had that as a high priority, somehow we managed to snag the goalie we had penciled in as our first pick ended up going 34th Ovr future superstar John Poremba @celine, with the way the draft unfolded we were able to get the player we were most interested in , Jer Lefebvre , recent surprise 2nd round pick in the recent VHL draft, Lefebvre has been opening A LOT of eyes lately , and we couldn’t be happier to have the opportunity to draft him and build around him” The Philadelphia Reapers made six selections in this years draft and made some small draft pick trade to move up in the draft. Firstly the reapers traded up two spots moving S73 PHI 2nd and S72 PHI 6th to Houston for S72 SDM 2nd and were able to draft “there man” Jer Lefebvre at 19. The Reapers also Traded there S73 PHI 6th and (D) Hunter Harrison to the Yukon Rush for there S72 SSK 3rd . Finishing up there last trade on draft day the reapers felt comfortable with the way the draft was rolling and decided to move back a few spots and made a deal with Mexico Sending S72 PHI 2nd (21 Ovr) in return for S72 MEX 3rd and a S73 MEX 3rd. After making these small move the Reapers ultimately had 5 Picks in this draft and not one 1st round pick’; 2nd Round (19), 3rd Round (27),(31),(34), 4th Round (47) and Finally 7th Roud (86). With the Reapers first pick by now every one knows his name and that Jer Lefebvre @Jer_Lefebvre. Jer is a future superstar and a proverbial 1st like center and the fans in Philly will love this guys scoring touch. Secondly the reapers were able to secure future superstar defenseman and the highly ranked “Riley Knight Gee” @KnightRiley. Riley has a fantastic season last year with Houston Scoring SEVENTEEN goals (as a defenceman) and 46 Asissts for 63 Pts in 68 GP. Riley has proven in his rookie season his offensive abilities , but he wont let you forget his defensive skills as well amazing 127 Hits and 193 Shots Blocked, this kid can do it all. With there next pick the reapers went with another highly touted forward in Turner McHugh @Turner, Turner is a pint sized energy bunny on the ice , he stands at 5”8 and 140 lbs, In 45 games on an abysmal Houston team Turner managed to Score 9 Goals and 23 Assists also averaging over a hit per game at 63/45 , Mccugh also proved clutch scoring two GWGs in S71. At pick 34 Shortly after the reapers found themselves where somehow John Poremba @CrlineDijohn14 was still on the board at 34 and the reapers made NO hesitations with their selection here as the Philadelphia’s star Goalie from last season Isaak Sjostrom graduating to the VHL. Poremba was the ranked 3rd out of all Goalies going into the draft and being able to get a goalie of his caliber at 34 is something special. With the 3rd round coming to a close with Phillys 1st four picks all have one thing in common, and this was 100% coincidental however, Jer, Riley, Turner and John were all teammates during there rookie season last S71 playing on the S71 Houston Bulls. The reapers also selected promisng youngster Peekay Soupcan @Patpou22 in the 4th round , Peekay has alot of raw talent as he proved last season in his short VHLM stint in 20 games managing 6 Goals and 6 Assists for 12 PTS/20GP on a very week team with minimal ice time, Peekay could end up being one of the biggest steals of the draft. Lastly and deffintely not least the Reapers and @DMaximus Select Forward James Davis @I_gasselingwith the 86th pick in the 7th Round closing out Philadelphias draft day.

Philadelphia Reapers Press Conference
Spence King replied to BladeMaiden's topic in Team Press Conferences
1) Q: Game 7s are a rare and unique moment in a hockey player’s career. How did you feel going into game 7? A: The bigger the game the bigger i play , its just how ive always been since i was young , there's something about a Tournament Final or a Facing elimination in the Playoffs wether it be game 6 or that game 7 i have more energy and more fight and this extra gear that comes out where i surprise myself sometimes with what i can do when our backs against the wall. These games when im putting my heart out for my team and family are when i produce my best personal results, its all for the team (and the best fans in the VHLM) at the end of the day. your Reapers Nation 2) Q: Philadelphia lost and is the season is now over. What are your thoughts on the season for the team? A: I cant say enough good things about my experience this year with Philadelphia , we have such a great group of guys , and we proved everyone on the ice all season we werent to be messed with , we are the true Reapers of the league and the Broad street bullies of the VHLM . This was F****** awesome as this is my style of play and i learn Philly is exactly where i belong, i will remember for the rest of my season the beating @flatl99 laid on possbily the best/toughest player in the league (Flatten was a rookie) Flatts really proved us all that boy can FIGHT!!! 3) Q: How do you feel about your personal performance this season A:This season was an amazing learning opportunity , i was so lucky to have the chance to learn vets like Hunter Harrison who will always remember as my 1st D partner and especially Canadian Superstar Jason Goeson. I honestly am so happy with my development and rounding out overall game and the amazing tips and having the opportunity especially with Team Asia to pick some of the best players in the VHLM and VHL players expanding my hockey IQ and open my eyes to so many more ways to continue to improve 4) Q: Now with Philly eliminated, are you rooting for any team to win? Why or Why not? A: Ill be watching the games , but im not cheering for anyone , im a Reaper on and off the Ice , All is fair in love and war 5) Q: Everyone gets to return home during the off season. What is the first thing you’re going to do when you return home? A: HAHAH Im not going home , im on the first plane to Miami and strapping on my wakeboard 6) Q: Our long-time goalie, Isak Sjostrom, is moving on to the VHL. We’re starting to evaluate new goalies for the team. We’re looking at some sumo wrestlers. Good idea? Why or why not? Any better ideas? A: Uhmmmm , after watching Sjosty play , i KNOW a sumo cant replace the agility,reflexes,flexbility and vision Sjostrom has , really going to miss you buddy , shooting on you in practice was always a blast -
May 4th 2020 The Philadelphia Reapers are going into game 7 of the 1st round of the playoffs, in great playoff hockey and extremely back and forth and mostly unpredictably of 6 games so far.This 4-5 first round seeding put two heavyweights with up against each other with Philly against the Offensive Dynamos of the Vegas Aces in a series that debatably could’ve been the Finals matchup if the seedings were different. Ultimately when the buzzer sounded after 60 minutes the score clock showed nothing the Philly players of fans wanted to see... Las Vegas Aces 7- Philadelphia Reapers 3. A very strong S71 season from the Reapers had come to an abrupt halt last night. Philly had a very strong season all the way out consistently being a threat to the top teams all season and sitting in 2nd place for most of it , were unable to make get the bounces they needed to make round two. This Game 7 marks Spencer Elsby 1st career game seven, some invaluable experience , he managed to put one in the net during the crucial game seven , in the end him and his reaper teammates had to say farewell as that will be the last game wearing the Reapers jersey together, it was evidently truly emotional Ending his rookie season with an iron man 72 Games played with the Philadelphia Reapers eye popping deference racked up 11 Goals, 24 Assists ,3 Game Winners and 83 Shots blocked putting him 2nd only behind all star defensive defenceman Jason Goeson. The 11 Goals has Elsby as the leading Goal scorer from the blue line for Philly and his offensive ability to quarterback the Power play has been on the highlight reels every week. Elsby is currently sitting at 11th Ovr on the VHL S72 Draft boards moving up 7 spots from rankings published earlier this season. Scouts have Elsby potential late 1st and high 2nd round pick of the VHL draft. Elsby also was selected as a 16 year old in his rookie VHLM season to represent Team Asia in the S71 WJC. Team Asia went on to be the #1 seed team after round robin and making it to the gold medal game , where things obviously did end the way Asia would have preferred that had a great tournament and played some great hockey. Elsby but up an outstanding performance registering 1Goal ,8 Assists for 9 points in 8 GP (over a point per game) during round robin and another 3 Assists throughout the Semi Final and Gold Medal game for a total of Elsby as a rookie finished the tournament 3rd In defenceman scoring in very fine fashion. After the unfortunate conclusion to the Spences first playoff run ending In a game 7. Elsby continued to grow defensively and there were a couple games Elsby lead the entire reapers team in Time on Ice. While maintaining disciplined Elsby led the Reapers in Shots blocked with 14. Elsby was able to score his first playoff goal in the biggest game of his VHLM career (VHLM not International ?) in game 7 and another 2 assists along the way during the 7 game playoff push. Spencer was quoted after the game saying “ Its obviously disappointing and I know we have the skill on our team to have made it further and it hurts knowing the season over and im not going to play with a lot of my best friends and new family maybe ever again, however the bond we made over this amazing season and I cant say it enough how fortunate I am to have been drafted to such an amazing organization @DMaximus really made my rookie year the best experience I could have ever dreamed of. This rookie year was an amazing stepping stone and has left me with nothing but great memories with the team and gasoline on my fire to just keep improving, this just motivates me more and I cant wait till we play the Aces next season”
