The Chicago Phoenix roster is really starting to come together and we are building a great group of players here. We are looking to continue to improve our spot in the standings this coming season and we as a franchise believe that starts with a great leadership group. The team captain as well as the alternates were selected by their peers. With that being said I would like to introduce the leadership group for the S75 Chicago Phoenix.

Team Captain: C - Christian Mingle @Quik

Alternate Captain: LW - Lee Xin @Blazzer

Alternate Captain: D - Matty Socks @fishy

Congratulations to those selected. Now let's start that playoff push!

1.       If you had to vote, who was the star player for Chicago in S74?

JP Camus was pretty awesome again but Matty Socks also had an amazing year.

2.      The biggest trade we made so far was one that brought Jeff Downey to us. What are your thoughts on the trade? Yay or Nay?

Great for our talent this year, should be a great mentor for the young players.

3.       Who do you think chirps best on the team?

Definitely not Christian Mingle, that is for sure.

4.       Who’s your favourite player in the VHL?

Eh I like to keep my focus on myself and my own play for the most part.

5.       Was picking 2 defensemen in the first round a wise choice for Chicago?

Defense wins championships. Not sure how someone could think solidifying our D corps could be a bad thing.

6.       Did you like how the draft go?

I think we got some great pieces for the future in this year's draft. There was a lot of talent and we made the most of it.

Sure why not.

VOTE MIKE.

Kill Caboose.

If you find a group for me I'll play

I have been insanely busy lately but if we need to vote I'll give it. I'll try to give some info after I get done work tomorrow morning.

VOTE bigAL

Great signing for a great prospect.

D.F.A.P.

I'm actually dumbfounded.

boy i love trades! i think vancouver wins this one!

shaddup seven year old

1) We made it to the finals! What do you think we can do to make sure we come out as champions!

Well we managed to do it! I am so unbelievably happy.

2) Who do you think is going to be the MVP of this coming series?

I am hoping to manage to secure that, would be an awesome thing to cap my Vancouver career.

3) Who has been the MVP of the entire Playoffs so far?

I'd like to say that Brock Louth has been great so far.

4) Who would you say is the rookie of the year candidate?

Matty Socks from the Chicago Phoenix had a really good season.

5) What should we do to continue building on this?

Just keep letting these young players develop and the success should keep going.

6) Should we do team based awards?

That would be a fun thing to do for the end of the season.

YEET

You LOVE to see it

Chicago Phoenix Press Conference (November 2-8)

What do y’all say to some TPE? Answer six questions for 2 TPE!

1.     Were you happy with your season? It was tough to miss the playoffs again but how did you do personally?

2.     Do you think the management team has a good plan for this team?

3.     What improvement would you like to see in the team locker room?

4.     Anything in particular you would like to see the team add this coming off-season?

5.     Any preference on which team wins in the finals? Vancouver or Helsinki?

6.     Do you think next year is finally the year the Chicago Phoenix make the playoffs?

1) What's everyone playing on bus journeys between games?

 

Just trying to get as much sleep as possible when I can.

2) Who is the person paying for the team meal next?

 

Who is the youngest rookie? Them.

3) What do you think we will do next season?

 

Good question, should be a solid year as the young players continue to progress.

4) If you had to enter a celebrity boxing match against another memeber in the league who would it be against?

 

I'd love to box that guy @Garsh, just a friendly little match.

5) Should we get a team pet?

 

Don't we already have Griff Manzer?

 

6) Do you think anyone will be leaving this off-season?

        
Good question. We have some expiring contracts so I could see some changes coming.

Plenty of other good prospects out there besides L & R.

This does imply that L & R are good prospects.
