Answer 3 for 1 TPE or 6 for 2 TPE!
- How do you think the management group did at the current draft?
- Who is your favorite teammate?
- What offseason deal did you like the most so far?
- What offseason deal did you dislike the most so far?
- Who is your favorite NHL player?
- What is your go-to post-game meal?
1. I feel like the management did a very good job with the draft, filled any holes and solved all the issues needed.
2. I gotta say honestly, Emerson would have to be. Been with him since the Mexico City Kings days so being able to compete with him is great honestly.
3. Trading away Su was hard, he was very VERY helpful to the team but in order to keep the pistons moving and keep the team moving along, we needed to part ways. I liked it because it shows that the team is willing to do what it takes for the future and more.
4. I'd prefer keeping some team dislikes to myself, honestly. The deal wasn't terrible but it certainly has it's up and downs, that's the hard part bout hockey transactions.
5. My favorite hockey player is actually Marc-Andre Fleury, when I got into hockey was when the Knights were an official team so to see how big of an impact he made for them is quite incredible actually.
6. After a game and during travel I always try to eat small so when it's time to rest and have a full meal I'll eat big. I'd say it's usually like a chocolate chip granola bar, keeping the sweets but staying healthy aswell.

4: Any special hockey rituals you have before a game?
5: What is one thing you love about your team that you'd be willing to share?

Week Ending May 9th/16th 2021 -- Depending When you answer
Answer 3 for 1 TPE or 6 for 2 TPE!
- What did you think about this VHL season as a whole? Did you feel like Seattle deserved a championship?
- Which team(s) do you think have the easiest path to contention following this off-season?
- Which team(s) do you think will take a step back after this off-season?
- The conditioning coach offers you pizza, beer, and fries, what do you do? Do you accept it or is it a trap?
- Which teammate do you text every morning when you wake up? What do you text him/her?
- The team sponsors a new console for you to buy, which console do you buy using the team's money?
- Which prospects are you most excited to see get drafted into the VHL?
- Which VHLm team do you root for, and why?
1. Of course every team deserves a championship, hockey is one of the hardest sports to earn it and while Seattle is our rival, I certainly give credit where it's due and believe they deserved it. That's their 12 championship, can't help but respect that for sure.
2. I always believe the Wolves will grow to get contention for a cup but I believe Warsaw will have enough of being too close to success and go all out in the off-season.
3. Something gives me that feeling that Seattle could step back just like Malmo did after winning their championship but I also feel like Los Angeles could as well.
4. It's certainly a trap but that's not gonna stop our players for sure, especially me I'm snatching those fries away immediately.
6. I feel like the Nintendo Switch is usually the best option for us, simply because of it's convenience with travel for our road trips.
8. I cheer for the Mexico City Kings, they're the team that took me under their wing when I first came into the league and the team I stuck with my entire time in the VHLM. It was a shame we didn't win the cup when I was in Mexico but I'm proud of them for finally winning it in Season 76.

3: What do you love the most about the city of Halifax?
4: In the 16 years of existence Halifax hasn't won a championship yet, once we win the Founder's Cup, how should the team celebrate their victory?
5: What other VHLM team would you say is the most fun to play against?6: What is your off-season plans and how do you intend on preparing for the upcoming season?

Answer 3 for 1 TPE or 6 for 2 TPE!
- With our season recently ending, what is one thing you'll remember from this year?
- How do you look to improve this off-season?
- Who's helping you move stuff out of the locker room for off-season renovations?
- How can we improve next year?
- After losing to the Los Angeles Stars, are you rooting for them so we lost to the eventual champion?
- What did you eat to console yourself after the playoff loss?
- Why do you think Vancouver will be an ideal UFA destination?
- Is there any prospect you want us to draft? Who sticks out?
1. I definitely won't forget how crazy of a season this was, the win streaks, the losing streaks, the records and high scores everyone on the team broke. I'll say this, it felt really good ending the season with that 3 game winning streak and having Emerson come in after enough rest to finish it off.
2. I hope to keep improving my stats season by season, I hope to hopefully go up in the lines and I simply hope to do some good for Vancouver next season.
3. I usually help myself when it comes to solo stuff like that, better to let me touch my own things and let the guys do theirs as well. It's good help and there's certainly some good people here to help out, however when it comes to stuff out the locker rooms... Lone Wolf mentality.
4. Change, Change, Change. When we keep losing, we change the lines, when we're red hot we can keep things the same but we certainly need to change things up more often when things don't work out. Possibly start trading a bit more for smaller acquisitions like picks and lower line people to boost up the depth.
5. Usually you would either cheer for the person who took you out to go all the way or for them to be eliminated as soon as possible. Personally I would want the Stars to win the cup, I remember for quite sometime the team being at the bottom of the standings, not doing well and now they're in the playoffs... You can't help but be proud for them honestly.
6. Well with the season over, it's time to relax a little bit. Sit back and junk out for a bit before getting back into the swing of things when the next season begins. Gonna get my hands on some M&M's possibly.

Answer 3 for 1 TPE or 6 for 2 TPE!
- If there was one player who you would always want to play with, who would it be?
- Which team do you consider our largest rival?
- Who in the locker room can you trust on aux before the game, what are they playing?
- What did you think you improved the most on this year?
- Is there anything you think you can improve in the off-season to help us out more next year?
- What's your favorite type of food?
- You signed an endorsement, which company do you choose? Who's gear do you like the most.
- Is there any prospect you would really want to add to our team in the future?
1. Taro Tsujimoto. He's ranked as the top guy in my draft class and I personally would love to see his efforts on the ice from a teammate perspective instead of opponent.
2. Chicago Phoenix at the moment. We handled Seattle and D.C. now we want revenge against Chicago.
4. Tater Tot definitely showed a lot of improvement this year and I'm quite proud of the efforts he put in for this team.
5. I definitely want to score a lot more, I want to help the team out in any way that I can and I feel like I could simply do better in that department. Luckily, I've been scoring a bit more than last season but I want to definitely up my numbers more and more.
6. Favorite type would have to be stuff like snacks, I do my best to eat healthy throughout my day but having a snack or something small when travelling or late at night is always good. Stuff like pretzels, granola bars, etc.
7. There's plenty of ideas but I would say for hockey equipment I'd go with Bauer for sure but I'm also a big adidas guy myself so those two would be my picks.

At the end of Season 57, the VHL cut two teams from the league, the Cologne Express and the Stockholm Vikings. In this reality, these teams were not removed, stayed with the same names and locations and made it to the continental cup finals. The league format would center around 18 teams instead of our present day 16.

Answer 3 for 1 TPE or 6 for 2 TPE!
- What are you doing to prep for the end of the season?
- Is there anyone on the team who's line you haven't been on who you'd want to play with?
- What is your favorite TV show to watch currently?
- If you could chose one movie to describe your player's life what would you choose?
- If you had to rename our team, what would you rename the Wolves to and why?
- Who on the team cooks the best food?
- What type of music do you listen to before games?
- Who do you see as the odds on favorite to win the cup this year?
1. To prepare for the end of the season I've been putting in more work on improving myself, making sure I train more often and make a point to get better in the hopes of reaching the postseason again. I also focus more heavily on any good luck charms, for instance wearing a certain hat coming to the arena while going on a winning streak and more. If it can transfer over luck then I'll gladly take it.
3. Shows like Avatar the Last Airbender and Legend of Korra currently, good remembrance of my childhood growing up and very entertaining stuff to look back on and feel that nostalgia.
5. I've always had the idea of the Vancouver Reindeers before I came here. I definitely enjoy the team's name, colors and more but i feel like Reindeers is a more... unique name? That's the best way I can put it.
6. We literally have a dude on the team named Tater Tot, you can guess which one on the team makes the best taters.
7. I listen to rap, rock, metal, alternative.. I usually listen to anything in general, I'm open when it comes to music but before games I listen to stuff that hypes me and the team up or a song that has been stuck in my head.
8. Vancouver Wolves. We look shaky now but we have chances of making playoffs. I want to focus on us and only us on winning. No other team unless we get eliminated.

Answer 3 for 1 TPE or 6 for 2 TPE!
- With the season nearing its mid-way point, how has your performance thus far been compared to your expectations?
- Is there a difference between the team performance now versus what you expected?
- Who on our team could you see as a future captain?
- If you could play with one person currently in the VHLm, who would it be?
- Which team do you think has the best branding in the league?
- Your locker broke, who on the team are you asking to share a locker with?
- If you could play any other position, which one would you choose, or why wouldn't you choose a different one?
- Who on the team comes to games in the best outfits?
1. My performance can certainly be better, I'll be honest. I'm looking at the pros and cons with my performance and I would at least hope to say that I could have more goals this season than last if I keep up the pace with my performance. I can be better in other places however.
2. Right now, I expected more. We are currently under .500, losing to bad teams despite our talent and now in the playoff run. With some change I can definitely see us back on track, alive and kicking. I expected another offseason appearance and I'm hoping we can get there.
3. I've always believed Sandstrom can be a captain for our team, he's gonna be in Vancouver for a long time and he's been one of our best performing players on the team.
4. I would say prospects in the Vancouver system like Li would be someone, I was in his shoes being a rookie coming to the big leagues soon and I would want to get chemistry working along with tips of how different the VHL is from the VHLM.
5. Branding wise, I would say Moscow does. Everywhere I see people chanting the city name and they show pride in their team, team name is catchy and things seem to work for em.
7. I feel like being a defenseman would be quite fun, would be less pressure than being a forward and I would have certain things to focus on. However, I enjoy my position of being a center.

Answer 3 for 1 TPE or 6 for 2 TPE!
- How has the first week of the season treated you?
- Do you feel like your off-season training has paid off yet, or have you been disappointed by your start?
- Currently fourth in the NA conference, how do you like our playoff chances?
- Who on our team do you think flies under the radar with their contributions?
- If we were lucky enough to have an outdoor game, who would you choose as our opponent?
- Who on the team do you spend the most time with.
- If you could take your current build and get one stat to 99 without having to use TPE, which stat would you choose and why?
- What type of music do you play when you take over the AUX in the locker room?
1. I'll be honest. Not very good. I feel like I could've contributed a bit more to the team but haven't done so, I think I'm starting to get the hang of things but there has been several games where I've been more of a reason than a helper.
2. Disappointed. I'm not afraid to say when I'm doing bad even if the team is doing good, I can do better than what I'm producing on the ice and that's a fact.
3. The season isn't over until it's over. I like our chances as we're a .500 team with good pieces but strange mixes, we can get things done and make playoffs. I truly believe in that.
4. Emerson for sure. He's a great guy and I understand the GM's intentions of making it a 50-50 season with him and Tot, he's a talented kid and showed plenty of heart last season when Spyro had his off days.
5. As easy as it is to say D.C. or Seattle, I would want something different. Wolves versus Titans for an outdoor game. Rematch of the Season 74 Championship.
8. As much as I would pick something from my personal playlist I usually pick something everyone can get with. Whether it's a good rock song or something alternative. Most of the time I get the AUX in the locker room I put something to hype people up, pre-game rituals ya know?

Answer 3 for 1 TPE or 6 for 2 TPE!
- With FonziGG taking over as GM, how are you looking to make a first impression on him?
- What is the first few things you did one you stepped back into the Vancouver practice facilities?
- How was your off-season? Did you rest, or did you work hard the whole off-season?
- If you could choose who on the team you would be handcuffed to during a drill, who would it be?
- What is your favorite pre-game ritual?
- Which team do you really want to get revenge on this season?
- What is one thing you hope changes from last year?
- What is one piece of advice you would want to tell our prospects still in the VHLm? If you're a prospect in the VHLm, what is one thing you wish to know from the roster players?
2. First few things I did was to polish up on anything I believe was left unfinished, worked on scoring and my puck handling skills. Soon I intend to work on more defense and my strength aswell.
3. I did my usual but I wanna say I rested more due to the extended offseason. Rested and healed up my body so I can be alive and kicking once it was time to get back in shape.
5. Definitely listening to music, anything to pump me up and get me rolling. During the skate around I try giving myself challenges to do like aiming in a certain area or doing a certain number of a task. Anything to get me focused and get me hyper.
6. I feel like before it was the Bears and the Dragons which we handled very well last season, this season I want to get revenge on the defending champions. Chicago.
7. I hope to change the slumps I had last season. I feel like last season there was a long stretch of time where I would get nothing on the score sheet and then maybe once in a blue moon get a point or something beneficial to the Wolves. I want to be more useful and hopefully get more time working as a center.
8. As a prospect the best thing for me to recommend would be to keep working and keep pushing. If you spend an entire season in the VHLM that's perfectly fine. Enjoy your time there and work on getting better and better each day, it's truly worth it when you push forward and get better.

Answer 3 for 1 TPE or 6 for 2 TPE!
- With @Beaviss stepping down as GM, I want you to say your best memory of him. Maybe it's advice he gave or a time you had with him.
- If you were the blues, who would you have step up and be the next GM?
- How to do you focus on the league with the changes going on in the Front Office. Does it make it harder or are you looking forward to trying impress whomever the new boss is?
- If you could have your perfect linemates, who would they be? For goalies, who would be your defensive pairing that you look forward to seeing on the ice.
- What is your favorite workout to do during the offseason?
- What's your mindset during a game, any pregame rituals?
- What is one piece of advice that your parents gave you?

@Wolverine @CptSquall @Aivarszz @Haydon Learmonth @LefLop @Ryan Li @Catter98 @Elijah (Fong's Son) @Garrett @dart @Rick132
1. I would say the best memory of the GM would be me getting drafted to the Wolves. I remember him bringing me into the pack and simply just being a part of the major league team while being a decent minor league prospect. It meant the world to me and I'm grateful he gave a chance on me to be a part of the hockey club.
3. Truthfully I try to focus more so on myself and let the front office do what they please, I don't have that much choice in regards to who the new boss is so it's better for me to focus on improvements and whoever comes in we'll work from there.
4. My perfect linemates would have to be guys like Chris Reynolds or even people like Justin Lose who make great plays, not the head of the league but still a very useful piece for the team. Those that can score and get the job done.
5. I enjoy some leg workouts in the offseason, another thing would be stuff on the treadmill. Work on stamina and speed.
6. My mindset during a game is to feel dominant and do help. Get the mindset of holding the team back from scoring or doing anything and when we're in their zone to do EVERYTHING in our power to score. Pre-Game I listen to music to hype me and the others up. Metal works sometimes.
7. The best piece of advice my parents gave me was that it's okay to fail as long as you're able to get back up and do better. It gave me a good attitude or feeling if I failed a test that I can do better than that, when you get knocked down you have to get back up. Can't stay at rock bottom forever.

Both teams here I have suggested as potential teams for future VHL franchises: Glasgow Guardians and Chamonix Black Diamonds. I have ran both teams with VHL/M players in the offseason event: VHL Pro-Am.
