  1. 1. We've got a real deep roster, and I think are as good as any team in the league, so we have a shot at a big season. 3. Contribute where needed, it would be cool to break 50 points for his first time. 5. It's gotta be Breathe by Yeat, it's been all over my playlists. 7. The chocolate bunnies are a classic, same with Cadberry eggs, but I love these marshmallow bunnies (not Peeps) that are covered in chocolate. 8. I wish I could have done more in Los Angeles in either of those seasons, never really had the right roster or chemistry. 9. Noise cancelling headphones being a close second, my catalogue of movies and TV shows is too important, since I can't sleep while travelling and need something to do.
  2. 1. The team is looking pretty dangerous now! We've got a very deep roster and I think we've got a fighting chance. 2. I think Malmo might not make it. They've got high talent but a huge gap between top players and depth. 3. Shubham Anand is looking like he's going to have a great rookie year. 4. Easily AK, going to be the driving force everywhere on the ice. (Dark horse MVP is Tucker Jr) 5. Hoping to see 30 points at least. Solid depth player production would be great. 7. Definitely. He's got the finish line in sight and I think it's only a matter of time.
  3. 1. It's looking great! Looks like we are getting the bases for a future powerhouse. 2. I think this year will be mostly a progress year for the team, but we could be a sleeper team if things go really right. 3. Being one of those young faces, very hyped! 4. We've got a bunch of cap space and a team that should be rising over the next few seasons, I don't see why not! 5. Very hyped! I won't be super active unfortunately but I'll be rooting for the team the whole way! 6. The Bruins are currently undefeated and I'm loving it! I do miss Bergeron though.
  4. 1. It's going pretty well, just been really busy. 2. Pretty much everything, but the offense would be nice to see. 3. Definitely didn't really hit expectations, however I wasn't super active in getting my player better so it's partly my fault. 4. Probably consistency. We never really got large win streaks last year and there were lots of random losses. 5. Super excited to potentially get a chance to play with Napoleon Dynamite. Superstar in the league. 6. Definitely the legendary Donny Carter. Absolute stud right there.
  5. Beautiful trade tree, making me want to get back to work on my never ending project
  6. *Show’s theme song plays. Camera shows Joe Smith sitting at a desk, and Gregger McKeggegger sitting across from him.* Joe Smith : Welcome back to the show folks! Today I've got Los Angeles Stars rookie Gregger McKeggegger with me to talk about their wild season and how it's been for him! Kegger how's it going? Gregger McKeggegger : It's going good Joe, happy to have made it into the playoffs! Smith : That's right, you did finally clinch tonight with only a couple games left! Congratulations! McKeggegger : Thanks Joe, really proud of the whole team. Smith : With the first half of the season you had, was there ever any doubt in the locker room about making it into the playoffs? McKeggegger : I had some nerves, some of the other younger guys did as well. But there's nothing like having leaders like Sirdsy and Clix helped to give us some confidence, and I feel like once we started to build momentum, it brought us the confidence we needed to go on that great end of season run. Smith : Is there an urge in the locker room to get these leaders a championship here before they retire? McKeggegger : Undoubtedly. Guys like Coins and Sirdsy are done after this. There's a sense around the locker room that we've got to get it done. Smith : Speaking of Jason Coiner, there was some controversy about the work done at the trade deadline and if it had strengthened or weakened the team. What were the initial reactions to core players such as Nezuko and Dabnad Shaw getting traded? McKeggegger : Well it's never easy. I had so much fun on the ice with both of them, and learned a lot too. Especially because of their respective reputations and the quality of careers they've had, it was a tough loss for the whole team. However Coins came in and instantly made an impact, personality wise and through amazing play. I've got a lot of respect for Coins just based on how they fought their way through the minor leagues and the VHLE for more seasons than most, and then once they got into the VHL fought some more on a fading and then rebuilding team. Now Coins has a shot at their only championship in their last season. I think they were just the missing piece we needed. Johnny and Benny also came in and fit really well. Smith : It was really a remarkable thing to see this team fight all the way back and earn the playoff spot. Now that you've made it this far, do you think this is a special team that could potentially make waves this postseason? McKeggegger : I'm not going to say anything about how I think we'll do. I'm a little too superstitious to do that. However I do believe that we've got a ton of chemistry, and that we've got some great momentum heading into the playoffs. Smith : Alright Kegger, well I'm so excited to see how the Stars perform this playoffs, maybe we see a fairytale run! Thanks for coming on the show, hopefully we can chat again soon! McKeggegger : It was a pleasure as always, thanks for having me! Smith : Alright folks that's all for today, make sure to tune in next time! *Show’s outro plays and the screen fades to black.* Word Count : 550 For Week of 7/23
  7. 1. Our team, because we've had a bad season. 2. I would procrastinate a ton and not update enough. 3. The two-way forwards. Players that are impactful everywhere on the ice. 4. Blocks, it's one of the main defensive stats and I would say very important. 5. I've had sushi. Anything other than raw fish, I don't think so. 6. Yes. It's good to see places that aren't your own home. A little adventure can go a long way.
  8. 1. Pretty much everything at the moment. 2. Not sure, we've got a very quality roster that just doesn't seem to be clicking. 3. Maybe something like improving the 2nd defense pair? 4. A truly elite defenseman doesn't have to be the highest scoring. They should control play in their own end and then help to be a piece of the offense and help it to click better. High point totals are a bonus. They should first and foremost be elite defensively. 5. I have, I went to an island in the Carribean. 6. Guaranteed safe 100% I definitely would go to space. I feel like that would be life changing.
  9. 1. Bubbles Utonium has been unreal for DC, I think they are higher in the standings than a lot would have expected. 2. With McKeggegger and Francis leading the youth movement, we can insure that it will be a long time before they break it. 3. S84. My old player Donny Carter's first (and only) season with Davos. He had broken out the previous year and on a new and stacked team I expected big things, not the second lowest point total of his career. 4. Yes definitely, I really enjoy the jumping between the three leagues, and the E makes it so there isn't any giant skill gaps in the M for new players (400 to 100) and it also gives players coming into the VHL have more of a fighting chance. 5. Alaska. It's absolutely gorgeous there, I think people just think of it as cold and they would rather warm places. 6. I have never heard of or listened to The Stokes.
  10. Gregger McKeggegger Gregger McKeggegger is a 6'5", now 23 year old left winger. The two-way forward is set to make his VHL debut tomorrow for the Los Angeles Kings. The young winger has already had quite the career spanning the VHLM, VHLE, and World Junior Championships. After a fascinating journey through the lower leagues, Gregger is ready to make the jump to the VHL and show the league what he's got. Now to look back at his career in the lower leagues to see if he has what it takes to make a difference in the big league. VHLM Gregger was drafted 9th overall to the Ottawa Lynx (After playing the end of S86 with the Philadelphia Reapers as a free agent). He did not wait long to make his impact and enjoyed immense success in a system and locker room that seemed tailored to him. Gregger dominated the league, finishing the 72 game season with 62 goals and 62 assists for a staggering 124 points. The team gelled together so well and there were many great memories for Gregger. He finished 5th in league scoring, tied for 2nd in goals, and was 10th in assists. McKeggegger has also displayed no hesitation to shoot the puck, as he led the VHLM in shots taken and had an average of 6.76 shots per game. He also had the clutch factor, tying the league lead for game winning goals with 14. Heading into the playoffs, Gregger continued his impressive scoring, and led the Lynx in scoring, finished 3rd league wide in playoff scoring, 1st in goals, 5th in assists, and shot even more with 7.18 shots per playoff game. All of this led up to the Ottawa Lynx lifting the Founder's Cup, Gregger McKeggegger's first trophy. VHLE After Gregger's success in the M, he was drafted 11th overall by the Oslo Storm in the VHLE. His first reaction is that he should have gone earlier. To prove everyone who passed on him wrong, he wanted to have another phenomenal season. It didn't start great though; he wasn't putting up a lot of points and was well behind a point per game. However, when things started to click, they really clicked. Gregger finished 8th in league scoring with 87 points and tied for 4th in goals with 40. He also continued to pile the pucks on net, even in the more difficult league, Gregger had 408 shots and 5.67 shots per game. He also continued to come in clutch and tied three others for third in the league in game winning goals (7). Oslo stepped confidently into the playoffs, even with playing their rivals the Cologne Express. After a hard fought 7 game series, the Storm made it to the finals and they took care of business. Gregger McKeggegger has won championships in both leagues he played in, in the one season he did in each. During the playoffs Gregger wasn't the top player on his team, but he still had 13 points in 13 games, and tied for the 4th most goals in the playoffs (6). The shots continued as well (5.46 shots per game). WJC On a more worldwide scale, Gregger played for two years on the US world juniors team. In the first year, McKeggegger was a bottom of the lineup player, only contributing 2 points in the first 14 games, and then in the playoffs he had just one assist. However, the US went on to win gold, and Gregger went home with some bling. Then the S88 world juniors came along, and Gregger was hyped to be involved. He was a top line player and did not disappoint. In the US's amazing regular season, Gregger had 17 points in those 10 games. Unfortunately, the US lost in the semifinals, with McKeggegger nowhere to be found. Their journey wasn't over however, the bronze medal game was still to be played, and what a game that turned out to be. In a wild matchup against Canada, the US went down two goals heading into the third when suddenly, the team (and McKeggegger especially) clicked. He started off the period getting an assist to cut the deficit to 1. Then with just over 5 minutes to go, he scored a power play goal and tied the game. Then in overtime, Gregger McKeggegger was the US hero, potting the bronze medal winning goal. Total Stats Regular Season: Games Played - 184 Goals - 114 Assists - 123 Points - 237 Shots - 1014 Hits - 299 PIMs - 100 Blocks - 105 GWGs - 24 Playoffs: Games Played - 45 Goals - 19 Assists - 30 Points - 49 Shots - 227 Hits - 78 PIMs - 30 Blocks - 21 GWGs - 4 Awards: Founder's Cup Renaissance Cup World Junior Championship Gold Medal World Junior Championship Bronze Medal Word Count: 793
  11. 1. We've got a great team, I would say top two in the conference, top four in the league. 2. Myself, Gregger McKeggegger. I'm looking forward to a great season. 3. I think DC could surprise people, probably not making the playoffs, but they could be competitive and try to make a push. 4. I think Helsinki could be an option here, they've got good players, but not any superstars. 5. My favorite grain. Honestly I'm not sure. The bread I eat most is white bread. I don't eat a whole ton of grain. I'll say whole grain because I eat whole grain goldfish. 6. I feel like Kendrick Lamar would be a super cool concert, but I would love to see another Imagine Dragons concert, or get to an AJR concert that is super unique and entertaining would be sick.
  12. 1. Last season LA didn't have Gregger McKeggegger. But also I just think the changes that were made to the team to change the layout and make some different chemistry. 2. We had a great draft, a lot of really solid prospects. hopefully some will develop, and also the obvious big steal for us is great. 3. The search will continue until one who is worthy appears. 4. I'm not expecting a huge rookie season, but anything could happen. Setting my standards low and hoping for 15 goals and 20 assists. 5. I've gone into this before but it's pretty complicated. Not being specific, I have my pre-game meal, go to the rink, warmup my muscles and stretch, play soccer with a few of the guys, put on my equipment, talk to every player on the team in a certain order, walk down the tunnel a certain way, then pre game warmups are also specific. I'm pretty superstitious. 6. My pre-game meals are something that I've been interviewed about in the past. Nothing will ever consistently help me perform well. It's an ongoing battle and I will continue to fight it.
  13. 1. I think just depth and how relentless we were. We only really had one game it didn't look good in, we came to fight every other game. 2. It feels incredible, all that we went through, this season was a battle and coming out on top just feels amazing. 3. I'll bring it back home and show it to some family members. Probably will eat something out of it, haven't decided what yet. 4. An absolutely wild night of bar hopping and we actually went into the woods for a bit too. I know we brought sleds but that part is pretty fuzzy. 5. I've got some big prep to do, I want to improve my game as much as possible. I'll definitely have at least one vacation though. 6. It's time to hit the big leagues and see how I'll do. I'm really excited to live in LA, it'll be a big change of scenery for sure.
