SPECIAL DOOMS EDITION PRESSER

 

1. As the season winds down, Saskatoon has not officially clinched a playoff berth, but seems to be a lock for the post-season. Where do you see the Wild finishing the regular season at in the standings?

Top 5.

 

2. After being ranked 5th in the VHLM in producing top VHL talent, Saskatoon currently has three prospects (Battre Sandstrom, Lenny Sanderson, and Brian Moreau) in the Top 25 prospects of the Season 76 Pre-Draft Rankings. Where do you see them going in the S76 VHL Entry Draft?

First rounders for sure.

 

3. Do you think there are any other Saskatoon players capable of making their mark as a top prospect?

I'm not too sure. Most of us are already drafted and will be leaving to the VHL after this season.

 

4. Florent Vericel is the first VHLM player this season to crack 100 points this season, and he still has ten games left to play. How many points does he finish with, and does anyone have a prayer of catching him?

120 and no.

Our 10 game winning streak and absolute fun we've been having as a team.

For sure. He's almost getting a hatrick a game

Name: Silas LeFriend

Height: 6'3''

Weight: 200lbs

Position: Defense

Team: Saskatoon Wild

Silas LeFriend is currently a defenseman for the Saskatoon Wild and has been since mid-season 75, where he was a waiver claim due to entering the league late. He will now be entering season 76 and hopefully playing a full season with the team. Here is a list of Silas LeFriend's strengths and weaknesses.

Strengths

Defensive Game

Silas prides himself in his defensive game, almost solely focusing on the defensive aspect of hockey. He knows that the less goals you cause against your team, the better the chances you have winning the game. Good defense is a good offense, as turnovers can sometimes be very deadly. His 43 blocked shots and 86 hits in 38 games speaks for itself.

Passing

Passing is a very strong aspect of Silas' game, as he is touted as a two-way defenseman. As strong as his defensive game may be, his first pass out of the zone and into his team in the neutral zone is always spot on. When he handles or has possession of the puck, he is always making the right play, or a play that has the least amount of chance to backfire on him and result in the opposing team gaining possession and scoring.

Skating

To be a great two-way defenseman and move the puck up the ice effectively, you must be able to skate pretty good. Silas has dedicated himself to improving his skating each year. Improving his skating usually means speed, agility, and acceleration. If he can get the first step on the opponent, then he's either going to carry the puck up, or be in a very good position to pass it to a teammate. His speed also helps him in the defensive zone too as he can usually keep up with the opposing team shooting down the ice with the puck, effectively boxing them out of the zone.

Weaknesses

Offensive Game

Silas isn't going to be putting up three and four points a night, or even a point for a game for that matter. You will most likely expect to see a thirty to fifty point guy with great defensive stats. He isn't going to quarter back your powerplay and move the puck, but will compliment nice. Silas is built to play on the penalty kill and kill penalties.

Strength

Silas isn't the strongest person on the team, nor will he ever be. What he lacks in physical strength, he usually makes up in mental fortitude and hockey IQ. He isn't going to be the one to check a guy through the glass, stand up for a teammate, drop the gloves when the team is down and needs a boost. He's a smart defensive player, not a strong physical guy who is going to run around and pick fights.

Leadership

Silas wasn't born to lead, but will speak when he has to. He is not the Captain type to keep the boys hyped and focused, while also leading them into battle. Silas is quiet and reserved and only speaks when he feels the need he has to speak.

1. Training hard and gaining as much TPA as possible.

2. They all dropped massive TPA and all spiked up to like 200+

3. Cody Prout

4. Canada if they're a team.

5.  Phasmophobia, Visual Studio Code (heheh), OSRS.

6. Eso. Guy don't care.

Very beautiful and probably one of the better done images on this site. The only thing that bothers me is that the text clips into the players chin strap. 9.5/10.

The bottom of the hockey sticks on the banners bleed through the edge, the one of the far left actually clips out of the banner. I'd give this a 7/10.

1. It's a cold night in Saskatoon. How have you been adjusting to the weather?

Pretty good, pretty good. I'm from a cold part of Canada myself, so not much of an adjustment.

2. Now that we are clinched for playoffs, what do you think we'll have to do to compete?

Keep training and upgrading our skills and teamwork as a team. Keep geting that TPE.

3. Who do you think has stepped up to lead the team in this final stretch of the regular season?

Apart from our forwards racking up points, I think the defensemen have been racking them up too and showing their worth.

4. What are your thoughts on Las Vegas AGM JigglyGumballs lurking in our Locker Room?

Needs to get out or hide in the closet.

5. What are you going to do to pass the time during the NHL offseason?

Classes, homework, my puppy.

6. Out of all Saskatoon skaters, who is the best fighter?

Gabe Johnson will fight anyone.

1. Thoughts on trading for Jim Bob?

I wish him luck on what he does next on his new team.

2. Thoughts on the Bears season so far?

Let's hope you guys can win a cup.

3. What team has surprised you so far?

Every team has surprised me.

4. Thanksgiving weekend for Canadians. What are you excited to eat this weekend if you're family is still doing that?

I can't wait to have some Wendys. 

5. What are you thankful for in life? Name some shit. Spread the joy. POSITIVE VIBES.

Thankful for my puppy, Willow.

6. Predict your finals stats for your player. Goals, Assists and Points. GO! For hogan, also include SHOTS BLOCKED LOLS

1-2 goals and about 10-11 assists. Maybe 10-12 blocked shots. I'm trying to play good in my own end.

1. Having grown up in a blue-collar family, Silas enjoyed only a modest childhood with adequate education. His mother was a nurse at a hospital in Cape Breton, while his father owned his owned a construction company.
2.  
3. Silas, as he was always referred to by his mother, started playing hockey at the age of 7. He played in Novice, and then the following year moved up to Atom. He would go on to make Atom AAA and continue playing AAA throughout his playing career in the Sydney Minor Hockey League.
4.  
5.  
6. He was scouted early on in his first year of Major Bantom AAA and was told that he had the ability to go far if he put in the work and kept improving his skillset. Silas would spend countless hours each day, improving his skating, stick handling, and some of his offensive game, as his defensive game was far beyond his opponents, as he was a defensive minded player. His overall goal was to become more of a two-way player, opposed to a defensive defenseman.
7.  
8. Silas just did that by his first year playing Major Bantom AAA. He went from averaging ten points a season in Atom, to forty points in Bantom. The hard work was paying off and Silas’ stock was rising up the QMJHL draft rankings. Two years into Bantom he managed to be one of the top players in the league and was scouted as being a top five in the QMJHL draft. In his final year of Bantom, Silas put up 55 points, asserting himself as a solid two-way defenseman.
9.  
10. The 2017 QMJHL draft rolled around and Silas was made aware that he would be eligible for the draft. He was drafted in the first round of the QMJHL draft, 5th overall, by the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles. his local and boy hood team that he grew up watching. Silas was very excited and basically ran up on the stage to get his jersey. The headlines the following days in the local news and newspapers was all about Silas, and his ability as a defenseman. He was scouted as a good two-way defenseman with a great mind for defensive play. He had good size and fit very well into his body.
11.  
12. Silas’ first season in the QMJHL was a relative success as a rookie. He racked up 35 points in 68 games, but the Eagles fell to the Halifax Mooseheads in the first round. Silas recorded two points in four games, a goal and an assist.
13.  
14. Silas’ second year in the QMJHL would be an utter disaster. He would be checked headfirst into the boards and be immediately concussed, ending his second ever season in the QMJHL in 10 games. He would sit out the rest of the year due to having post-concussion symptoms. As this was his draft year, he fell down the rankings quite a bit and went undrafted in the NHL draft due to his injury and no one wanting to take a shot on him. The third QMJHL season would roll around, but Silas would again, sit out – all due his concussion symptoms. He again, would go undrafted in the NHL draft due to his injury.
15.  
16. At this time, Silas would be an over-ager in the QMJHL and wouldn’t be able to play anymore. Being too old for the Q, and no NHL offers coming in as his injuries essentially cost him a career in the NHL. He was approached by the Saskatoon Wild from the VHL and offered a contract. Silas accepted almost immediately and signed off on it, hoping to get his career back on track. He showed up to training camp in great shape and no longer displaying signs of a concussion, after two years of battle. He is now a defenseman for the Saskatoon Wild.

1. We've gained ground in the standings and sit only 1 point back of first place Halifax. Do you think we can retake the lead?

 

2. What are your thoughts on Sonnet, one of the VHLM commissioners, stepping down?

 

3. If you could take a team (VHL or VHLM) and relocate, what team would you choose and where would you move it?

 

4. Now that we've finally got a defense partner for Gecko in @yevty, do you think the team will see improvement?

 

5. What is your favorite cartoon?

 

6. Have you watched any new movies lately? I just watched Borat for the first time lol

1. I think we can retake the lead now that we're getting defensemen to shore up our defense, as our offense is dynamite.

2. I never met the guy as I just joined today, but I would assume it's a big loss?

3. Saskatoon and I would locate them to Cape Breton Nova Scotia. I'd either caller them Cape Breton Steelers or Cape Breton Miners.

4. I'm hoping I can contribute in a positive way and help you guys win a cup!

5. Probably Rocket Power as a kid.

6. Latest movie I watched was "The Old Guard" on Netflix.
