  1. Emi Rune - "I have been forced against my will to play for Team Europe and I'm not very pleased about this. For the last few seasons i have been trying to represent Team Asia due to the fact i am Japanese and I'm only selectable due to a technicality of being born but not raised in the UK. I hope someone sees this and doesn't select me in the future for Team Europe as i am not giving 100% when i am playing as my Heart is in Asia."

  2. So, i thought i'd do this slightly different to others. The way i will be doing this is by making a team of the future. This means i will only be using players that are pretty new to the league as when they're drafted.

     

     

    The main for this is that i do not really know any of the league history and as a result i think it would make the writing the easiest for me.

    So without further waffle.

     

    Line Up:

     

    Riley Couture - @Riley_Couture (A) - Venus Thightrap - @BladeMaiden (A) - Lee Xin - @Blazzer

     

    Micah Adrienne - @Poptart  - Emi Rune (C) - Myself

     

    Grekkark Gyrfalcon - @Sharkstrong

     

    Now allow me to explain why with some of these players.

     

    First let's just get myself out of the way.

    I decided to add myself to this as i think that i'd compliment Adrienne and i know i'm going to keep active and earning. So i know that. I guess there's also the factor i wanted to add as many female users as possible.

    We have 4 out of 6 for this team.

     

    So now i'll get to the Goalie Grekkark Gyrfalcon.

    I first originally played with Grekkark in Saskatoon for my first season. I know the compete level of the user and he's been making a really good and exciting player. I think that overall they're potentially the best young goalie in the league right now. I think that any team that has them are destinded for greatness in the future. I think that they're probably comparable with someone like Spyro but a younger version.

     

    Now let's get to my defence partner Micah Adrienne. I know that Emi and Micah have played together on the Wolves already and i think that they would be great for this team. They really compliment each other as Emi can keep passing the puck to Micah and they can put the puck into the back of the net on a power play. i think having this sort of cohesion then we'll do very well and i think we would be a more offense heavy team.

     

    Next we get to Lee Xin, the reason i added this player honestly is that i love the user Blazzer and i think that havign them play with riley and Blade would create a all female user line and i think it's something that would be a great marketing ploy. Now let's move onto why this actual player. I think they would be a good addition to to Venus and RIley as they're another player that can score considering riley is a pass first.

     

    Venus and Riley make the team due to being my best friends in the league. I would not want to be on a team without them at this point. I also need them so we can have a good stardew valley farm when going forward. I can not really write much about why i'd take these other than the fact they are great users and will be ready to be big players going forward. I think that Venus has the potential to be a leading scorer in the future while Riley has the ability to be a key passer so having her pass the puck to Venus would be a deadly combo.

     

    Now we have my ultra team which has over half the team playing for the Vancouver Wolves. I guess what i am saying is we're building good and right now we're scary but we'll be even scarer in the future once Riley joins us in the majors!

  3. 1) What would you say is an area you need to improve on as a player?

     

    2) How do you measure a successful season?

     

    3) would you rather win a cup on a team with a dead locker room or almost win on a team with an active locker room. 

     

    4) Outside of Hockey, do you watch any other sports?

     

    5) Who are some players you look up too?

     

    6) You have to cut one player from your team. Who is it and why?

  4. Late week version of AGM asks.

    1. What do you think the key to our good start to the season is?
    2. Who do you think the stand out of the team will be this season?
    3. Who do you think will win rookie of the year?

    4. Do you think we can make the playoffs this season?
    5. Who do you see being a future leader in the locker room?
    6. Which player is most likely to go into management once they retire?

    Overview

    Emi joined the league at the end of Season 72 where she joined the Saskatoon Wild. In her first stint with the team she didn't put up a single goal or assist in 9 games with the team. The team did manage to go on a post season run which led to her first point of her career in the VHLM where she put up 2 assist in 18 games as the Wild went on to win the championship that season. She entered the up coming draft and was brought back within the Saskatoon orginisation when they selected her 24th overall. In the 1 full season with the team she put up 10 goals, 64 assists and 74 points in 72 games with the orginisation. She was on the Powerplay where most of her goals came from where she put up an impressive 9 goals. She was a point a game player for the team that season before entering the S74 draft. She was ranked as high as 3 on some draft boards and as low as 15th on some others so the potential for her to rise or fall was always dependent on team needs. Early boards had her going to London before they traded that pick away to Vancouver and she eventually ended up playing for that orginisation this coming S74 season.

     

    PROS

     

    Passing - In her only season with the team she nearly have 1 assist per game. She was the main engine of the teams plays and made sure to make those arounds her better as she dished out the puck to other players. She continued this good run of the form in the playoffs too where she put up 4 assists. She has always been known as one for passing the puck with pinpoint accuracy.

     

    Skating - Rune is a strong and confident skater, she used this to her advantage when coming up against those more physically minded players. She will make sure to get out of there way by bursts of speed and flair. This has helped her with being a smaller framed player as she cannot rely on her physicality like some of the more typical defenders found within the league.

    Discipline - Throughout her time in the VHL she put up a total of 16 PIMs. This shows outstanding discipline and reading of the plays, she tries to stay out of the box as this is where she is most useful to the team. She took a measly 38 hits throughout her career but these didn't result in her becoming a detriment to her team by being stuck in the box. This is good as she was one of the cornerstones of a defense in her time with Saskatoon.

     

    Hockey IQ -  Due to the way Rune plays she relies more on her IQ than her stregnth. This has led to her being one of the best players to be able to read the flow of the game and give out commands to her fellow teammates. The managment team in Saskatoon agreed with this as they made her Assistant Captain where she led the team from the back and made sure everyone knew what was about to happen and what way to go. This led to her having a good +/- by the end of the season as she was on the ice a lot when the team scored.

     

    CONS

     

    Physicallity - As mentioned already she isn't someone who plays that phsyical game. She put up a measly 38 hits in the minors which for a defender is pretty pretty low. As a result those looking for a player who is physical should look elsewhere. Her small size and weight adds to her reasons to staying away from this style of play and as a result she can be pushed around on the blueline a bit.

     

    Folds under pressure - She has shown that she does not deal well in big game situations in the playoffs in S73. She didn't show up in the final Saskatoon game and didn't play well over the entire playoffs. As a result her play really hurt the team in those high octaine game. This is something that can be improved with experience and hopefully something she will develop more with time.

     

    Raw - Her skill set is really based around what she is currently doing and hasn't been built to help a certain team. As a result her talent is very raw and it is there however if not developed correctly she could become one of the next big flops in the league.

     

    Room for improvement

     

    Scoring - As mentioned before she put up 10 goals in her season with the Wild with most of them coming from the Powerplay. This is something that is currently good but with the right training we could see a 15-20 goal a season player out of this player.
