AJW

Hello reader, if you are reading this and currently are not a free agent or any player who is signed already with a VHL team, please keep scrolling. The Los Angeles Stars are crying for help and looking for ANYONE TO JOIN PLEASE SIGN WITH US. We can guarantee a few things: 1. You will play a lot as we only have like two players above 400 TPE next season. 2. You will play a lot of minutes. 3. You will most likely get lots of points since you will play a lot. 4. For goalies: you will start every game. 5. You will play a lot. Next season could see a mental breakdown throughout the entire city of Los Angeles as majority of the roster have either retired, been traded, or not re-signing. So please, if you have any heart at all, call the number on your screen and donate to this poor organization. All proceeds will go towards AJ Williams' new player build and we will even include a sticker that says "thx" in size 12 time new roman font. Thank you for your time and please please please consider joining the Los Angeles Stars for the upcoming S83.

1. Not really. Been in Canada my whole life so it’s all I know. Would like to live in western Canada though. 2. I don’t watch baseball. 3. No but my sister has a cat named nut! 1. What is your favourite place to order fast food? 2. What is one thing you would tell your younger self if you had the chance? 3. Is there any where you want to travel?

1. To regroup and figure a way to replace all of the retiring vets and the players who won't be returning after this off-season. 2. It could be, I'm pretty sure only 3 of us will be returning next season so it is expected. 3. Just have fun. We've had some good runs lately and it starts in the LR with everyone enjoying themselves. 4. Toronto looks great. They beat us in S81 in the qualifying round and have a roster of deep young talent. 5. Headphones in and keep to himself. It's all a mental game to get ready to play. 6. @MubbleFubbles's player because he has the best player name in the league right now.

The LA Stars took on the Vancouver Wolves recently in the second round of the S82 VHL playoffs. Just like S81, we lost. Vancouver gave us a clean sweep and sent us home with our heads shaking. Vancouver is a really good team, going back to back the past two seasons, so it wasn’t a huge shock to be knocked out by them. I would say Williams played a great part for the Stars these playoffs and should be proud. 14 points in 11 games and only 2 points behind the team leader in points. Williams is only getting better and with the vets retiring, he’ll be seen as a top point producer heading into the next season. I’m very excited to see how he can perform and how the new build system will affect his play. Another new thing, LA has a new GM. With Rory stepping down, IR comes in to try and bring some success for this squad. IR went 3/3 in the VHLE playoffs on making it to the finals, so I have faith in him to find us in the VHL finals soon. Not sure how long that’ll take with our core retiring, but it should be a fun run as Williams is signed to the Stars till S85.

With playoffs approaching, Williams and the LA Stars hope to bounce back from an early exit in S81 against the Toronto Legion. With many S75 players retiring after this season, it’s all or nothing. Williams is determined to help win a cup for his vets to finish off a strong season. After this season Williams will be seen as the top TPE forward for the Stars (if signings/trades aren’t made). Williams is prepared to be a leader on his team after being drafted in S79 and learning from current captain, Pistil Stamen, LA Stars franchise points leader. Williams knows there will be big shoes to fill and can count on S78 Henri le Massif and S77 Jan Hlozek/ S78 Tui Sova, if they choose to re-sign, to help lead this team. Since being drafted, Williams has been attached to this franchise and has goals to lead his team to many playoffs. After signing a full career contract, the Stars management understand how determined he is.

1. Spinach, can throw it in anything and it has no taste in my opinion. 2. Quebec to get a team again. Would be cool to see the frenchies have a rivalry in Quebec. 3. I used to work for the OHL if that counts. Would always check in on the games. 1. Who is your favourite NHL team? Why? 2. What other sports do you enjoy watching besides hockey? 3. What is a travel destination on your bucket list?

Had the day off so decided to hop on and type some words. But yes I am not dead for some of you who have been wondering, just been working a lot of was burning out a bit. Anyways, AJ Williams has been having a great season with the LA Stars. He has 80 points in 68 games, passing the 40 goal mark with 41 goals and passing his previous season points best of 76 points last season. He also just recently achieved over a point per game for his career stats which is pretty cool only being in his third season. The Stars and doing very well too, being second in the league just behind the back to back cup winners. For a while we were leading the league too which was awesome. Also, we have a pretty decent gap in front of third place in the league, so I'm guessing everyone thinks it will be either Vancouver or Los Angeles winning the cup this season. I hit 150 words so goodbye for now.

1. The Stars are looking really good. Second place in the league behind the Wolves and have a huge gap from third place. 2. I skimmed through them, I think it's a great idea. Will most likely annoy my GM to tell me what to upgrade and be too lazy to learn what I should do. 3. I've been working lots but usually at my bar they have NBA games on so I watch a couple here and there. 1. With the new attributes being implemented, what type of player build will you shoot for? (Sniper, playmaker, etc.) 2. What are some career goals for your player? 3. If you could choose a different team to play on in the VHL/E/M besides your own, where would you go?
