Randy Bobandy is Getting Kind of Old The cheeseburgler from Nova Scotia, Canada has put 5 seasons under his belt already in the VHL. From skipping a minor season in the VHLM, to being drafted 4th overall in the S87 VHL Draft to the Seattle Bears, to being traded to the Calgary Wranglers last season in S91, Bobandy has grown and learned a lot over the past seasons of play. Bobandy currently plays the role of 1st line center for the Calgary Wranglers and here are some stats to look at for Randy Bobandy: Milestones through 5 seasons 100+ Goals Scored 200+ Assists 300+ Goals 20+ 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Game Stars (Career Regular Season) 300+ games played 200 regular season wins 50 playoff games played It's cool to track your player's progress and see statistically how they have improved through the seasons. Even with a bump in the road with one season of play in Calgary, I feel the new management team has put the puzzle pieces together this off-season. S91 was a "are we still rebuilding" type of season for the Wranglers with a roster full of diversity: young forward core, veteran defensemen playing with rookies, and a goaltender who is just reaching prime time era. S92 looks to have more promise in my eyes for Randy Bobandy and the Calgary Wranglers: F- (S87) Randy Bobandy: 1106 TPA F- (S87) Oreo McFleury: 876 TPA F- (S87) Sadie St-Louis: 838 TPA F- (S88) Rip Wheeler: 678 TPA F- (S90) Raimo Tuominen: 678 TPA F- (S90) Catia Goncalves: 585 TPA D- (S87) Skor McFluery: 1155 TPA New Signing D- (S85) Phil Strasmore: 805 TPA D- (S89) Joe Block: 533 TPA D- (S89) Pope Francis: 463 TPA New Signing G- (S88) Merome Dilson: 1010 TPA Pros vs Cons The major pro I see on this roster is the development of Merome Dilson. After 3 seasons Dilson has struggled to find their feet in the win column, but individual numbers have told a different story. Dilson finished S91 on a .500 team placing 5th among starting goaltenders in GAA (2.39), 7th in shutouts (3) but 14th among starters in SV% (0.923%) letting in 150 goals on 1955 shots. I feel S92 is the season Dilson breaks out of their shell and becomes a top 5 goaltender in the VHL. Being ranked currently 3rd in TPA for goaltenders as well, Dilson has the tools and the team in front of them now to find success. A con I see in this season is my worry for the chemistry through the first line's scoring. Scoring goals was a problem for Calgary's first line in S91 (Bobandy 30-29-59, McFleury 26-28-54, St-Louis 26-22-48). After a season together, and after the addition of Skor McFluery (89 points in S91, most among all VHL defensemen), the goals will need to start coming in or else a change in the system may need to occur again. Bobandy's two way playmaking build combined with the three heavily favoured scoring builds from O.McFleury, St-Louis, and S.McFleury should hopefully be the answer Calgary is looking for after the moves made this off-season.

Let me be more specific. Make a list that literally says : WEEKLY TASKS TO DO •Point Task •Supplemental Tasks •Practice Facility •etc… Once a member submits that task it gets checked off and moved to the bottom. This obviously requires somebody to set all this up on the portal/forum. Bek said before it shouldn’t be a hard task to do AND why do I have to click three things to find a TPE calculator when I could instead just look at a weekly checklist on my home page. Just a suggestion, I find it way easier to know what I’m doing if I have it listed out in front of me and it seems very new user friendly. Also not everyone has discord so you can’t expect people to check discord when our league is a forum league.

I meant put it on the forum home page somewhere so you can actually find it the first day you join I love this from Mubbles though

Add in a TPE checklist so noobs can see what tasks they can do each week!!!

1. I’m excited to see another S87 on our squad. Good life left in those legs and Skor had excellent numbers last season. 2. Winning two cups for Calgary sounds good to me. 3. Just signed Francis and I am hyped! 4. Top 3 in our conference. We have the players for it and Dilson is in primetime mode now. 5. I got very drunk with friends at a buddy’s cottage. Hangovers hurt. 6. Chocolate. Bobandy can’t get enough of it and has to be monitored after 11pm on team trips or else you’ll see him at the closest corner store picking up chewy bars.

Best of luck with your new player!

1. Toronto won the last two games and with STHS luck I don’t see Helsinki winning many more. 2. Not that I’m sure of, but hopefully Bobandy will be repping Canada’s red and white somewhere. 3. I’ve been in the spirit since I put up my mini Christmas tree on November 1st. I love the holidays, the time off and the family/friends. 4. I love all the sweets. It doesn’t matter if it’s chocolate, candy, or baked goods, anything seasonal with sugar in it is top tier. 5. Currently a broke student so hopefully having enough to get for the people I care for. 6. I ate a kid’s meal at McDonald’s today… the kid was very angry.
