I meet all of the requirements and have been looking for excuses to be even more active than I already have been. New PC more than capable of running sims. In this for the long haul.

1. @DoktorFunk has been the most welcoming member of the Hounds organization since he got here. He has kept the locker room alive and he will be sorely missed. 2. We have a lot of stinker. It's hard to say with confidence but I think we can get in. We should need to hit a hot streak and beat the teams we are supposed to beat. 3. Blow and hookers. 4. We need top-end defense and a center for every line but the first one. And Experience in all positions! 5. No. 6. @DoktorFunk

Player Name: Mike Mac Claim What player will lead the league in hits at the end of the sim on Sunday April the 19th? (Correct Answer is worth 3 TPE) Dustin Brown

1. I'm fairly content with my player build. Having played NHL video games my entire life, I am familiar with builds I like and aim to be. There are some TPE here and there that I would take back but not many. 2. Yes, as I get more established and actually do something in the league, I would definitely be on. Until then, nobody wants to hear what I have to say. 3. I would be, for sure. Part of why I haven't continued to listen to podcasts is because it isn't that relevant to me. Sure, whats happening in the VHL right now is great, but it has no impact on me so it's hard to get into it. 4. Media spot, graphic, Articles, recruitment, trivia, press conferences. 5. More press conferences. 6. I'm still fairly new. I love seeing the stats come in and I have been getting enough ice time to keep it interesting.

As a noob, I don't even know what SBA is. So I won't miss it.

Appreciate an answer on this. It has been awhile lol. Chalk it up to another piece of work for me that I can't claim yet.

MISSISSAUGA – Goals will make anyone feel better. Ask Michael Mac. Life is good for the Hounds’ 25-year-old rookie these days. Playing on the top line; a goal in regulation and another 2 points in the game before that, and five points in the last five games overall had the Canadian sensation smiling after practice Monday. “That first game against Houston,’’ Mac said when asked when it was that things turned so positive for him. He was referring to the game last month at the Garden, when he scored the Hounds’ first goal in a win. The goal came on a power play, after coach @Berocka had moved him onto the first power play unit. That goal started his hot stretch. He now has 7 goals, 12 assists in his last 19 games. Good for a point a game as a rookie. And he’s comfortable enough with the team lingo now to try and poke fun at his teammates so when he was asked about them Mac smiled and said, “Su’s got a little bit of chirping, but not much. Pratt is better.’’ Mac said he is feeling comfortable in his surroundings. He lives with his family near the Hounds’ practice rink, and he spends a lot of time away from the rink with fellow rookies. His parents came over for the Hounds’ regular season opener, but now they are back home in Hamilton, watching his games on TV. He talks to them often, via FaceTime, mostly. On the ice, @Berocka said Mac’s overall game is coming around, and he is doing the things the team needs him to do, beyond scoring. But the scoring is what makes him happiest. “Of course, I’m a forward,’’ he said. “I like to score goals. The assists have been there but I’d like to find the back of the net a bit more.’’

I'm interested in these kinds of offers. Either this or in future. agm or GM.

Player Name: Mike Mac Claim Who will lead the league in goals scored by next Sunday? Nikita Kucherov

The Mississauga Hounds have become the perfect example of an organization that has its development system in perfect alignment right now. Andrew Su is an MVP candidate, Albert Stoner was a great find, while goalie Aleksandr Aleksandrov was a fantastic signing. Adil Mahmood has 10 goals in just 16 games. Oh, but we’re not done. That’s the present – and the future is looking just as bright. Two Hounds prospects recently announced that they would be in the VHL by next season. Right Winger Michael Mac was one of the best players in the entire NCAA this past season and he did so as a freshman at Harvard. Mac, taken 8th overall by Mississauga in the 2019 draft, helped Harvard soar in the second half, earning him conference of the year honors in Hockey East. He tied for fourth in conference scoring. But yes, there is more to accomplish in the VHML and he was adamant with our staff that he would make it happen. We, for one, can't wait to see it.

Claim: Mike Mac 1) Connor McDavid 2) Martin Jones 3) Nikita Kucherov 4) Alexander Edler 5) Brian Elliot 6) Seth Jones 7) Kris Letang 8. Jamie Benn

1. VHL fo Sho. 2. He visits everyone he hates and coughs all over them. 3. I've seen him drink horse semen in the dressing room. If that's what it takes to succeed, I'll pass. 4. The puck bunnies. They love to get them some Michael Mac. 5. Hip hop, top 50 on Spotify, ebooks. 6. Control. Red dead redemption 2 Grand theft auto

Sorry, wrong team. Not sure why this notified me but my own team doesn't. Ah well.

Please add me to the tagged list. In VHLM.

Here is my original that I never claimed TPE for but will try now. So at least I am improving lol.

player: Mike Mac TIER 1 :100 tpe +45 scoring 50-> 80 +10 defense 50-> 60 +15 Puck Handling 50-> 65 +30 skating 50 -> 75 Let me know if my math on XP doesn't add up.

In today’s VHL, what’s more valuable than a big winger who moves well and plays with skill? Teams that have one generally don’t let them go. Teams that want one almost never have the opportunity to get one unless they draft one. To that end, I suspected Michael Mac would be a highly sought after player. The Hounds liked what Michael Mac had to offer so much that they gave him first line minutes and powerplay time, but passed on some of the more notable players in this year’s draft class. It was somewhat of an unexpected move, but the pick helped fill a team need. Michael Mac checks a lot of boxes that the Hounds were looking to add this offseason. If you are unfamiliar with Mac, let’s take a closer look at what he has to offer. Mac is polished. When he’s engaged and on the prowl, he’s a player who can draw comparisons to a young Ryan Getzlaf. Like Getzlaf, Mac has a power game, but also has high end vision and the hockey sense to open up lanes for other players. An accurate wrist shot allows him to score from the outside and the willingness to go to the net and play in traffic also makes him dangerous in front. Strengths: Shifty with great hands despite his large frame. Very coordinated and a very smooth skater. He is incredibly talented at keeping the puck in motion and creating offense with a sneaky elegance. Michael’s ability to slow the game down and read the ice has been noticed by many scouts. He is a very strong forward with an “offensive-first” mindset. His soft hands help generate offense, especially in the crease and other dangerous areas. Scouts have also commented on his ability to weave the puck into tight spaces; a skill that is unique given his size. None of this compares to his shot, which is one of the best among available players. Michael can take control of the offense and slow the game down for himself and his teammates. A fast stick and agility will mesh well with the Hounds forward group. Areas for Improvement: Mac’s agility mostly stems from his hands and upper body. A consistent drive in his acceleration is expected to improve with VHL caliber development. Another common area for improvement noted by scouts is a general lack of confidence in his defensive positions, as well as an unwillingness to always block a shot. Potential: His size and offensive ability will be a change of pace for the Hounds forward group. His cerebral read on the game and vision on the ice could make him a big asset on the penalty-kill unit. Mac has shown creativity in his defensive game, which Mississauga will look to use when he hits VHLM ice.
