With the start of S94 coming soon and quickly, we caught up with VHL Calgary Wranglers' prospect Miner vHLer @Rhynex Entertainment. Miner vHLer has recently received word of call up by the Calgary Wranglers and appear to be set to start his rookie season in the upcoming S94. Reporter: Hello Miner! Nice to see you again! What are your thoughts on your call up to Calgary? Mv: Hello. It is good times to return to North America. It was a surprised call up, but you can never go wrong with playing in the VHL. Reporter: How are your preparations for the VHL? You did not have a very eventful season in the VHLE in S93. Mv: S93 had been a rough season, but a very nice learning experience. I will take my time and learn from the best players and help chip in where I can. It's going to be a fun season! Reporter: What are your plans for the rest of the off season and your preparations for starting in the VHL? Mv: Honestly, I was expecting to have another season in the VHLE, but now that I have a chance to play in the VHL, I need to work on my defensive game and skating and puck movement. It is going to be a long process of learning. Reporter: Thank you! Best of luck for the upcoming season! [Word count 231]

1. It's called a rebuild, so no FA required, come from within 2. A surprise, but asset management to help quicken a rebuild 3. I can't say much to myself 4. Work hard and play hard, enjoy the quick improvements of the minor leagues and come up to the majors as soon as you can 5. I haven't thought about what is my favourite 6. 83, first player award in the VHL

With the S93 season over and a victory lap for the S93 VHLe Oslo Storm, we found time to speak with VHLe Oslo Storm player and VHL Calgary Wranglers' prospect, Miner vHLer @Rhynex Entertainment Reporter: Hello Miner! Congratulations in winning the S93 VHLe Championship and the Renaissance Cup! Mv: Hello. Thank you! Reporter: What are your thoughts on your successful first season in the VHLe? What are your plans for the off season in preparation for S94? Mv: This season has been an amazing learning experience! And that's exactly what I signed up for. I've played with some really quality guys here and got to ride shotgun to a championship title, so that was fun! A lot of those champs will be moving on to their respective VHL major league clubs. We will meet again soon in the future. This off season is going to be a lot of little stuff training and grinding. I need to prep mentally and review the basics in preparation for next season. Reporter: Will you be heading back to North America and play for the Calgary Wranglers, or are you staying another term here in Oslo and look for a title defence? Mv: Honestly speaking, I feel that there is a lot of room for growth in my game. I've spoken to Calgary Wranglers GM @leandrofg and they are ready to open a spot if I choose to come back over to Canada, but they feel I could get some more better suited development time here in Europe. Feels like anotehr season in the VHLe might be the way to go! Reporter: Sounds good! Have a wonderful off season. We look forward to seeing you play in S94. [word count 284]

1. Just an off season like that one miss by Vegas in the NHL 2. The core will be already missing a few big pieces from retirement, unless that is not the core? 3. Headed up to the big show? 4. Seadon, I haven't really be following so I randomly picked Seattle 5. Until next time, hitting machine Phil 6. anybody is fine, my leadership would lead the way to survival

1. Improving ones game and oneself is the best feeling out there, regardless of how meaningful or meaningless the overall picture might be 2. The future will only grow brighter, if you don't believe in your game then you won't be able to win 3. step one, believe. Step two work hard. Step three win. 4. Wildcard teams could always make a difference in the playoffs. The playoffs is a whole new and different beast 5. I am. I support and I homer. 6. Delay of game penalty for keeping the puck on the side boards for too long

The miner of Canada, Miner vHLer @Rhynex Entertainment will be heading overseas to the mines of Europe. The VHLe, prepare to meet the vHLer! Miner vHLer is headed off to Oslo for at least one season after graduating from the minor league in Houston in the VHLm. Miner vHLer is prepared to continue on track with his development and shape up his overall game around his already very high game IQ, leadership and disciplinary play style. Drafted 31st overall by Oslo, Miner vHLer does not have much of an expectation in Season 93 in the VHLe. Miner looks to continue is game development while leading the team from behind the scenes towards a VHLe championship. As a rookie in Europe, there will be a lot of learning for this miner sponge. Being so far away from home, on a completed different continent, Miner vHLer will need his time to adjust but plans to slowly hone his skills in every aspects of the game. As most young players playing in the professional leagues of VHLm, VHLe, and VHL, one would expect to have a pretty refined game already, however Miner vHLer did not start his hockey career the same way as other players. Unlike other hockey minds, Miner vHLer did not focus on the fundamentals of hockey, whether it is Skating, Puck Handling, Shooting, or Defence (well nobody really focuses on playing defence when they were kids, right?). Miner vHLer focused on the books of hockey and the means needed to be a Great Leader. While his peers trained to improve their puck skills: passing, shooting, defence, stick handling, deking, and even some body checking, Miner vHLer had gone to the hockey holy bible to read up on Leadership and Poise. Now with lots of time away from home in Oslo and Europe, Miner vHLer looks to develop the other areas of his game and slowly build towards becoming the most balanced and poised player in VHL history. As the saying goes, slow and steady wins the race, Miner vHLer plans to have a steady evenly balanced improvement in Season 94 in the VHLe. While in comparison to his peers around him,. do not expect Miner vHLer to match anybody's on ice production. The game behind and in-between the game is where Miner vHLer's game is right now. The development stages of his early professional hockey career was always going to be rough and uneventful, but the end goal hopes to be one to look forward to. And when the day to hang up the skates come, one may look back and say, what an amazing player Miner vHLer has been for the VHL.

It is now past midway through S93 in the VHLe. We caught up with VHL Calgary Wranglers' prospect Miner vHLer @Rhynex Entertainment. Miner vHLer has been playing for the Oslo Storm in the VHLe and has been having a rough season thus far. Reporter: Hello Miner! Nice to see you again! It looks like you've been having a tough time out there! Mv: Hello. It has been a rough lately. Things are just not going my way right now. Reporter: What do you think is the problem? How do you plan to adjust moving forward? Mv: I can't really say. There's been a lot of noise outside, just got to filter the noise and raise my game to another level. Reporter: What are your plans for the second halve of the season? How will you change things to adapt moving forward? Mv: I just got to play my game. There's a lot of hockey left in the season and a lot of learning experience as well. Just got to put on my skates each day and play and have fun. Things have been rough but just got to do the little things and play my game and things will sooner or later get back on track to what my game should be like. Reporter: Thank you! Best of luck for the rest of the season. [Word count 226]

1. charades, a lot of chemistry building could be formed from a simple game of charades 2. food bank drive and soup kitchen, we all could use a good free food day 3. AGM Daniel Janser, beautiful singer 4. Sending post cards of Osler to Calgary 5. maybe electric eel, deadly and static 6. sunshine, get in car, rain, drive, reach destination, sunshine

1. Finally getting used to the timezone and the city 2. No, just living in the dorm room above the stadium 3. Probably me, just a minor character after all 4. I will continue if I don't reach 400 TPA by end of season 5. Not sure, we're having a good time despite not having a good season thus far 6. If there's an endless supply and continuous drain of the tap, I'd say it'll go on forever

Great, good luck folks! @leandrofg we are done, not sure if the other tag worked.

@comrade cat pick your last Forward @MexicanCow123 you make also pick your last Defense

Prospect Scouting Report - Miner vHLer Player name: Miner vHLer Position: LW primary / RW secondary (currently playing RW with Oslo Storm VHLE) Birthplace: Manitoba, Canada Height: 6'1'' Weight: 186 lbs Draft History: VHLM Draft: 22nd Overall (S92) Houston Bulls VHLE Draft: 31st Overall (S93) Oslo Storm VHL Draft: 17th Overall (S93) Calgary Wranglers VHLM Stats: 72 GP / 5 G/ 7 A/ 12 P/ + 1/ 49 Shots/ 16 PIM / 49 Hits/ 6 Shot Blocks/ 1 GWG/avg 9.30 TOI VHLM Playoffs Stats: 12 GP / 0 G / 0 A / 0 P / -1 / 3 Shots / 0 PIM/ 1 Hit/ avg 3.10 TOI VHLE Stats: In progress - 10 GP/ 0 G/ 0 A/ 0 P/ Even/ 4 Shots/ 0 PIM/ 3 Hits/ 1 Shot Blocks/avg 11.94 TOI Miner vHLer is an interesting prospect and a potential massive sleeper of the S93 VHL draft. As a hockey player, Miner does not have much going for him. Miner is essentially a high IQ, hockey smarts player, with no other upside at this point in time. One could say, Miner vHLer is a prospect who is "2 years away from being 2 years away" from being Good in the VHL. A literal Diamond in the Rough type of prospect. Nicknamed "the Super Bot" in the VHLM by his fellow teammates on the Houston Bulls, Miner vHLer did not show any particular growth or potential throughout the season, as shown by his lacklustre production in the regular season. Miner vHLer performed stably well with the limited time on ice he was given by GM @AJW. It was not until the S92 VHLM playoffs did Miner vHLer started showing some of his true worth. Leadership and Discipline. Miner vHLer's leadership on the ice and on the bench was very impactful for the Houston Bull's playoff run, and a major factor on why Miner wore the "A" on his jersey, despite being a player with no particular talent. Pro High Leadership; one could say Miner vHLer has the knowledge to be the best leader in VHL history High Disciple; Miner vHLer has grown into a player who may be the most disciplined player in the VHL, however he does have a tendency to step up and defend his teammates via a fight. Potential; Miner vHLer is a prospect with the definition of Diamond in the Rough. Miner has a lot of room for growth. Con Average; Miner vHLer is not particularly good at anything, and possibly particularly bad at everything

We start our VHLE S93 highlights with the Third Game of the new VHLE season. To close off Day One of S93 in the VHLE, we have a match-up between the visiting Bratislava Watchmen and the home team Oslo Storm. This is the first look for the two teams in S93, and the home team looks to be almost twice the size of the visitors. The home team lights the lamp first in the first period from a goal by UghSike @UghSike just 8:03 into the first period on the power play. Luke Glendenning @ColeMrtz of the Bratislava Watchmen quickly ties up the game at 10:11, slightly over 2 minutes after. The Oslo Storm continues their onslaught as they pepper starting Goaltender B-BRA G1 until Antonia Bucatini @CowboyinAmerica sneaks one past the mighty goaltender at 14:46 of the first period. Benjamin Abenduct @Schnee adds another for the Oslo Storm, a power play goal, to give Oslo a 3 - 1 lead at 15:19. The two quick goals in succession has forced the Bratislava Watchmen's coach's hands, and a Goalie Switch was initiated. Devon Giguere @omniscius takes over for the Watchmen in net. The change of goaltender by Watchmen head coach seems to have a rapid effect to team moral, as Luke Glendenning scores their second of the night and season 19:07 in the first period to make it a 3 - 2 Oslo Storm lead heading into the first intermission. The Oslo Storm peppered the Watchmen net with 18 shots to Bratislava Watchmen's 9 shots in the period. The Bratislava Watchmen comes out strong in the second period, determined to tie up the game. The Watchmen outshot the Storm 10 to 7 in the second period, but were unable to solve Oslo goaltender B-OSL G1. Game remains 3 - 2 for the Oslo Storm heading into the Third Period. The Watchmen and Storm continue a very even and hard fought match throughout the third period. With 1:49 left in the third period, Bratislava Watchmen pulls their goaltender to go 6 on 5 in an attempt to tie the game. Antonia Bucatini scores their 2nd goal of the night into the empty net just 12 seconds later at 18:23 to make the game 4 -2. The Watchmen leaves their net empty as they do not give up and Aeschylus Jigglejawns CXXXVII II @.sniffuM scores their first of the season 8 seconds later to give the Watchmen life. The goal at 18:31 made the game 4 - 3, however Tobias Weiss @jfaly takes a late game interference penalty at 19:17 forcing Devon Giguere to return to the game and ending the Watchmen's hope of catching up. The Oslo Storm held on to win their first game of the season by the score of 4 - 3. Final shot count: 40 to 30 in favour of the Oslo Storm. 3 Stars of the game 1 - Antonia Bucatini (OSL) - 2 Goals, 2 points, +2, 4 shots, 1 hit, 19 for 35 on the faceoffs on team high 29.19 minutes for the Oslo Storm 2 - Luke Glendenning (BRA) - 2 Goals, 2 points, +1, game high 10 shots, 2 hits, 1 block, 24 for 37 on the faceoffs for Bratislava Watchmen 3 - Benjamin Abenduct (OSL) - 1 Goal, 1 Assist, 2 points, +2, 4 shots, 1 hit for the Oslo Storm Honourably Mentions and Extra Notes: Bratislava Watchmen goaltender Devon Giguere was perfect in their start, stopping 21 of 21 shots, and was somehow credited with the Loss even though they did not start the game. Stupid score keeper. Stupid. Oslo Storm goes 2 for 5 on the power play and perfect 1 for 1 on the penalty kill. Both teams started their Bot-tender in their first game of the season.

Review: Good, simple interview. Well formatted to differentiate the Interviewer and Interviewee, which makes it an easy read. The use of different colours for each person's dialogue makes a big difference as well! Great use of tags and love how you even have an author signature by the title. Diverse questionaire, well thought out. Look forward to seeing what's next in stored for Wlad! Keep up the good work! 10/10

We caught up with VHL Calgary Wranglers' prospect Miner vHLer @Rhynex Entertainment today. Miner vHLer has been playing for the Oslo Storm in the VHLe and had just finished his first week of games in S93. Reporter: Hello Miner! Nice to see you again! How was your first week in the VHLe? Mv: Hello. It has been a rough week of games in the VHLe. We had a tough week and only finished 4-3-1. Reporter: What do you think is the problem and cause of concern? Mv: No problem at all, it's a long season and we are just starting to build chemistry. Plus a lot of us had issues with getting used to the time zone. We'll do better next week. Reporter: How did you find your play in your first eight games of the season? Mv: Honestly, I could have done more. Been better. I need to shoot more, one shot blocked, one missed shot, and one shot on net is not good enough. I need to move more, two hits and one shot block is not nearly enough to fill my position as an energy guy. I got to take my game up a notch and use the time I'm giving more wisely. Reporter: Thank you! Best of luck in your next week of games. [Word count 219]
