Press Conference (Week Ending 8/29)

1. This week is the Theme Week and the topic is VHL Awards. What is your thought on that topic, is it good, bad? Are you going to do anything for the Theme Week?

I don't really have much of an opinion on it. No.

2. Along with the Theme Week it is also a trade dead line coming up. Do you think we should make some trades and if so who, position or player, you want to see added or traded to the team?

I don't want to see guys go, but it's a necessary evil if we want to win anytime soon.

3.  The VHL is putting on another suggestion drive. So, what would you like to see change either in VHL in general or in our Locker Room?

I'm not sure, I think it's fine now, but the suggestions are probably pretty darn good.

4. There are a lot of conspiracy theories out there. Do you believe any of them? If so which one or what is the one conspiracy theory that you would most likely believe could be true?

No I don't really believe in any.

5. If you would to get 1 Free Reroll on your player today and keep all of your TPA. What would you change about your player and why?

Do you think the VHLM can really form rivalries due to how it's set up? I don't think rivalries are really present down here, but Ottawa v Minnesota is probably one of the few
