The Ducky Interviews featuring Landon Wolanin Episode 8
Kisslinger replied to jacobcarson877's topic in Archived Media Spots
Review 9/10! Great job on this article! I like the introduction because it sets the tone of the article. Grammar and spelling seem well done. The format of the article is nice.You could center it to make it look a little cleaner. I like that you used italics to separate the questions and the answers. I feel like if you put a title and a picture in this article it would pop out more. I really like all the detail you put into answering the questions, it shows you put effort into the article which is always nice. Congrats on getting drafted and good luck this season. -
Today I just wanted to run through and talk about some of the expectations for my player Zach Kisslinger II this season. With the new hybrid attributes, i think i will still be alright with goal scoring, so i want at least 25 this season. I will probably break this as my player is getting better and better and I’ve beat it every season but that was with meta. I want to get at least 55 assists this season as well. I don’t have my passing upgraded but I’m fairly certain Warsaw will be a high scoring team so this is possible as well. I would love to keep above a point per game for the next little bit of my career because i feel like this season and next season is my prime. I have my strength and body checking out so hopefully i will throw the body around this season and get above 50 hits, put this big frame to use lol!

Zach Kisslinger II's Veteran Presence I am going into my third season as a Warsaw Predator and I cannot believe it has already been three seasons. It feels like yesterday I was fighting to win rookie of the year, but now I am a veteran on this team. It is crazy to me that I am one of the longest members of this young team but I am more than happy to be known as a team veteran. I feel like I can really offer the leadership to help the newer members on the team fit right in immediately. I feel like I have become a core member of the Predators during my time on the team. I feel established here and it is really nice. Ultimately I am super proud of what I have accomplished with this team within my time here. I had the honor of being the assistant captain this past season and that was a really good learning experience for me. Hopefully one day I can have the honor of becoming the next captain! What it means to be a Veteran To me, being a Veteran is lots of things it is, providing leadership, helping calm the newer players in high-intensity moments, helping the team be the best we can be, and being an active role model in the locker room. I feel like I have been doing much better at being active in the league and in the locker room. I try to talk to our new players and get to know them a bit. While also talking to management and helping everyone understand the direction of the team. I like to try to help build an environment where our younger players are not afraid to speak out or voice their concerns. I want them to feel comfortable reaching out. This could be anything from wanting to change something about the team to talk about anything that is on their minds. To be a Veteran you have to be a teacher, but you also have to have the ability to continue learning. When you are a Veteran you cannot have the mindset that you are the best and that you know everything because you are only making it worse for the players and the team. As a Veteran, it is my job to make this team the best place for all the members of the squad. This is what it is like to be a Veteran.

Review 9.5/10 Great job on the article. The simplistic look of the article is super clean and it fits the vibe of what you are saying in the article. I like the use of bold and italics, gives it clarification to who is talking. Spelling and Grammar are well done, no complaints from me. I like that you were honest and said it was sad to leave Calgary but that you are still happy to jump back to the Titans. if you wanted to make it look super complete center the article and add a picture. Other than that great job and I cannot wait to face off against a strong Helsinki team!

Review 8/10 Great job on this article. I feel like adding a picture, some titles and maybe centering the article will make it look better. The content in the article is done super well though. Spelling and grammar are done well with no complaints from me. other than the centering, the format is done well. The spacing is really nice and helps make the article flow smoothly. I like how you talked about all the drafts and it seemed like a busy week for your player getting drafted twice then having to go draft players in the M lol. Overall the article is super well done and great job and good luck on your season this season.

Lately, Kisslinger II has been very busy with his offseason training. He took this long offseason and actually went back home to relax for once. It was nice to go back and hang out with the family and have some downtime for once. It gets really tiring traveling from Warsaw to other parts of the world every day. Kisslinger II did everything he used to do, play lots of video games, eat the food he shouldn't have, and stayed up and just chilled. It was like he returned to life before the VHL, it was a super nice refresher for him. Kisslinger II returned to Warsaw this week and was in go mode getting ready for the pre-season and trying to get ready to potentially win a championship this season. The game of choice for Kisslinger II was Valorant, he has been playing that for a while now and it is his favourite game to chill out and play with some friends. 162 words

Looking ahead to Warsaw's Season. After a long and hard season, the Warsaw Predators missed the playoffs. It was a bummer, this exciting young core worked their asses off.. just to fail... That is just one way you can look at what happened last season, but the players took it a different way. We took it as experience. we took the opportunity to learn. Many people say you have to know what it feels like to lose, to truly feel what it is like to win. This mentality has made our team closer and even more eager to win. Today I just wanted to go over what I think we will do super well within this upcoming season and what we will maybe not be the best in. This Warsaw team is something special and I cannot wait to see what we can do. Warsaw's Strengths I feel like this Warsaw team has more strengths than weaknesses. I feel like Warsaw's biggest strength is our offense. We have a very strong top 6 led by Brenden Marner, Bogdan Trunov, and Zach Kisslinger II. I feel like our top line has established itself as one of the best in the league and in my opinion, is underrated. On this line, we have a little bit of everything to make us dangerous anywhere. Then we have Girts Galvins-Omi Aberg-Robert Wilk on the second line. On this line, we have two new faces to the team, Girts Galvins, and Omi Aberg. I really like that we traded for Omi Aberg because Omi and Myself were on the same line in Stockholm and took over the league! We cannot forget about Brain Moreau, such a great player and great leader for the team. he could slot in anywhere on the team and still perform like he always does This offseason we made some big trades and those trades had us land Hari Singh Nalwa and Tavish Degroot. This improved our defense a lot and gave us a very strong top-line pairing. We also have Brain Payne coming up for their debut season which gives us a very young and reliable third defenseman. In these trades, we traded our goalie Tater Tot so that Wumbo our rookie goalie can take over and become the starter. I feel like these moves will make us extremely better because every single defenseman and our goalie are still super young and have seasons to earn and to start saving for later. I feel like our eagerness to win is a big strength as well. We know this season will be different from the last and that we will be a very good team. We have such a well-rounded squad and very good depth that we are confident no matter what. I feel like by putting our positive energy into the air, Simon and the Hockey Gods will bless us for being so positive. I do not want people to think we are being cocky or anything, we are just confident about our abilities and are ready to do everything we can to try to come away with the win. Warsaw's Weaknesses I would say our biggest weakness is lack of experience. We are a super young team and when it comes to the playoffs we don't have much experience. We have people in our management that know what it is like to win but it is different when it comes to the players. I feel like this weakness will slowly go away thanks to the addition of Hari Singh Nalwa, who has won before! I do not think this is a really bad weakness as every game you play is experience and can teach you something to become a better player. Another potential weakness for us this season could be conflicting builds and the new hybrid attributes. No one really knows how this new attribute change works and what type of builds work with other builds so it is kind of scary to see but somewhat exciting. Since everyone was so used to using the meta build, other people are still going to run and try to find the meta build using these hybrid attributes. No one knows if their build is going to be good or not so it puts a ? on this season in a way. Looking at our team's builds we look good on paper, but being good on paper vs being actually good is a very different thing. Our other weakness would be being in a tough conference. EU is looking really strong this year with many teams getting better as well. It will be a crazy close playoff race and a lot of EU teams are eager to win after Vancouver has dominated for the past couple of seasons. I feel like we are going to lose a couple of games that we would see ourselves winning in the previous seasons because there are no real weak teams anymore. Playing our backup goalie will have to be strategic to make us not lose a playoff spot. Where do I think we will end up? I think this season we will finish second in the conference. I think we will be such a deep team that when it comes to those long super important games we will be able to grind out those wins. I would obviously like to see us win the championship, but I want us to take small steps first and get back to winning a series in the playoffs. After we do that we can shoot for the stars and start thinking about those championships. I feel like our offensive production will be down but not by much. I feel like since the attribute change scoring is going to be pretty low... I think we will be fairly consistent but I think we pick up some real heat and become a lot better towards the tail end of the season. I feel like we should not change the team and only add if it does not involve a player, mainly a new defenseman to give Payne a partner. I am super excited to see what happens this season. 1020 something words.

I am super happy with how this offseason has been going for us. We have went out and immediately made an impact by trading for some new amazing players. I said in my last update that I want us to trade for a couple of defensemen because I felt like that is what we were missing and BAM we go out there and get some new defense! Not only did we add some defense, but we also added another center that we needed. If everyone re-signs with us, I think we become one of the teams to beat this season. I am super happy with the way I made my stats, I feel like I am going to continue to score quite a bit and still be a top player in the league. It has been hard for me to max earn but I am trying my best to keep the earnings coming to help my team win it all.

Today was Warsaw's lucky day as we went from the sixth pick to the second pick overall! I am super happy with this result as we took the Draft Lottery tournament so seriously! This boosts us right into contention in my opinion. I feel like because there are no wrong options here as there is some great talent in this draft and probably a lot of teams that would like that pick for their rebuild. This was honestly the second best result that the Predators could get and I am very happy that we got this lucky. I have been trying to think of a new build and I honestly feel so lost. I feel like this is a good thing thought because all of us are going to be trying to figure out the best ways to make the best players. I hope the transition goes smoothly and that it makes the league a more competitive place.

Kisslinger II interview. Once again on ESPN, we have a fan favourite from the Warsaw Predators, Zach Kisslinger II. The forward has been a powerhouse since he joined the league and now a leader in the Warsaw locker room. Today we prepared a few questions to ask him about the Draft Tournament, Warsaw’s team, and his future! We are happy to introduce Zach Kisslinger II! Thank you for the introduction! I am happy to be here once again and answering the questions the fans want to know the answer too! I am an open book so ask away and I will give you the best answer I can! Draft Tournament Q. How serious is the team taking this draft tournament? A. We are taking it super serious; we have a chance to improve our pick and make our team even better than it is already. There are a couple of great prospects that we would love to have on our team. We currently have a record of 6-1 so far and we are looking good. Hopefully we go on to win it to give us better odds at a better pick! Q. You have been doing super well this tournament, why do you think that is? A. Well, it is two factors really, my teammates are insane, and we are better than the teams we are facing, realistically we should be in the playoffs, but we got unlucky towards the end, and we got lazy. Trunov is an amazing player, and it is super fun to be on a line with him, he brings me to another level of play. Warsaw’s Roster Q. What do you think Warsaw needs going forward? A. If you want my honest opinion, I think we need some new defenseman. We have some great defensemen on our team, but I feel like we need to bring in a couple new faces to give our veteran defensemen a little relief. We could do that with our picks or free agency, either works and I feel like that will benefit the most. Q. Do you think you will finish higher than you did this season? A. Yes, for sure. All of us are getting so much better and we have something to prove this upcoming season. We have an exciting young group of forwards and some defense prospects that are likely to come up so we will be in a good position. Kisslinger II’s Future? Q. What are your plans with Warsaw? A. I want to be on Warsaw for a long time, I want to go down as one of the best in franchise history and I want to be Captain of the team at some point in my time here. I feel like I can give this team and the fans a championship and I plan on delivering on that. Conclusion We would like to Thank Zach Kisslinger II for coming on ESPN and for giving his time, We wish you the best this Draft Tournament and cannot wait to see what you do!

Kisslinger II and the Warsaw predators have been competing in the draft lottery tournament and have been crushing it. We currently have a record of 6-1. Kisslinger and Trunov are leading the way in points in this tournament with 19 I am pretty sure, which is cool to see. Kisslinger II has been spotted out in Warsaw meeting with fans and exploring the city with the longer offseason due to the changes in the league. Kisslinger II said that this longer offseason gives him a chance to clear his head and relax for a bit. He said this is the most calm he has been in a while and it is so great for his mental health and body. Kisslinger II said he is having fun playing in this draft tournament and it is helping him keep involved with the team and keeping him warmed up. Kisslinger II is excited to see what happens in the rest of the tournament and ready for the new season to come! 168 words
