The Reapers have officially clinched the 5th seed in the upcoming playoffs where we will be facing San Diego in the first round which is on the other side of the country by the way. While Armani has not been a big part of this due to him just joining the team despite just getting his first assist, I do want to quickly point out some players who deserve recognition. Alex Johnson is definitely one of them with him scoring 117 points and five hat tricks. He also currently has 58 goals with 16 of them being in the power play and 11 of his goals being game winners. Vasiliy Grigorev has one more power play goal however making his total 17. Zeljko Ranogajec also definitely deserves a mention with him giving out hard hits left and right with 254 total and is great at getting the puck to the open skater with 78 assists. There is also JaredN Jr who is one of the top defensemen in the league and is the one with the third most points. He has also been blocking a lot of shots with 129. We apparently also don't get as many penalty minutes then other teams with us not being in the top ten in that area. In my opinion this is a very complete team and I cannot wait to see what we do in the playoffs.

Great job Philly!

1. honestly that is quite a difficult question as both teams look good but I think San Diego might be a better match up just due to the fact that thier true window might be next season from what I've heard 5. being born in and being very used to very cold climate, for Armani going to San Diego was a very good experience if I cannot choose Philly 6. Yes Erik Karlsson because of the facial hair alone. 7. I have 4 pets! Two baby lovebirds named Sunshine and Pickle, an African Grey parrot named Jackson, and a little black dog named Gizmo. 8. The top obviously. Who eats it from the bottom? 9. Dark Chocolate is really good if it is made right but honestly I would not call it the best.

3-1 sim not bad Philly

"Philadelphia!" Armani Calamari's father Jay yells when he heard what his son says "why not stay on Ontario with the Hounds?" "Because dad I want to see more of the USA" Armani says putting a hand on his father's shoulder "besides I'll also be a bit closer to your side of the family and hey I might be staying on the team for just a season. I'll be fine" "Well alright" Jay sighs as he hugs his son "good luck there I heard the fans can be ruthless" "Trust me I know. See ya dad!" Armani says as he gets in the car to take the long car ride to the airport. The contract was a bit short notice but they did have a good condo for him to stay and Armani triple checked that he had his passport. A few hours later he was touching down in a Philadelphia airport and was looking for a rental car they have sent for him when a girl came up to him "Hey where are you from? The girl asks "Oh Canada! My name is Armani Calamari" Armani answers with a smile "Oh your from Montreal!" The girls says making his smile fade "Umm no Toronto though I was born in Alberta" "But the name sounds French..." Armani sighs deeply before he saw the car coming up "No it's Italian." Armani says before he gets in the car after putting in his luggage "I am not French Canadian" He mumbles to himself as the driver starts the car and soon they are driving through downtown Philadelphia towards the hockey arena. He was looking around eagerly at the sights and sounds of the City of Brotherly Love before they reached the arena where he met up with the GM Kaleeb. "Hey Armani welcome to the Philadelphia Reapers!" Kaleeb says as Armani gets out of the car "get your luggage too we will eventually drive you to the condo where you will stay ok?" "Gotcha sir" Armani smiled as he was taken on a short tour if the arena "certainly bigger then the junior arenas back in Toronto eh?" "Yeah I agree and I've seen you play in your junior games and was impressed" Kaleeb says "now look you might not get as much playing time but we are looking to have a big playoff push and we are glad you are a part of it" "Trust me I am very glad to be a part of it" Armani smiles "I definitely want to help raise another banter in this arena so I will try to take advantage of what limited time on the ice I have" "That is what I like to hear!" Kaleeb says "now i will introduce you to your teammates tomorrow but before then I'll have you brought to your temporary condo. It's not much but it's big enough for one person. Oh, and the money should be in your bank account soon." "Thank you very much sir" "Oh! And one more thing." Kaleeb gets our Armani's new jersey "Welcome to the Reapers we are very glad to have you!" Armani smiles as he takes the jersey and does the traditional photo with the GM, excited about what the future held

Awesome! Thank you so much

Armani gets the first two points of his career!

Well Assistant GM.

When I first decided to try this league out after I found it out from the SHL I already had a bit of experience from the SBA and the EFL even though I didn't last long in ether of them. So I had the gist of what this league was about when I created Armani Calamari and the player creation system itself was extremely user-friendly and I was able to create him rather quickly. I did need to readjust myself to the portal system however as a lot of it has slipped my mind because it had been so long. It did not take long before I was given two offers from the Reapers and the Hounds for waiver deals. Everyone was extremely helpful about how I should make my decision. I ended up taking the Reapers simply because I might only be on the team for a season due to the draft and I wanted an opportunity to win a championship even if I would not be able to have many minutes. In other words yes I'm kind of ring chasing if just for this season. The Philly GM Alex was also extremely helpful in getting me to make my first Media Spot and answering my first press conference.

Armani Calamari grew up in Toronto Ontario Canada despie being born in Alberta so hockey was always a big part of his life. Whether it was days at the community rink starting as a decent goalie for his youth hockey team before transitioning to center or being a starting center for his school hockey team he was never that far from the ice. Days when he was not playing were usually spent watching and studying various hockey games from all kinds of leagues to improve his playing abilities. It was a dream he kept even when his mom unfortunately passed away due to her heart condition. Eventually he got into AAA hockey levels and was a great starting center even if he was not the star player on that team, that player being his best friend and team captain Craig Smith. But Calamari ended up still putting up good numbers in his minor career averaging 15 goals and 21 assets through 42 games. His hard work on and off the ice would eventually pay off when he managed to lead his team to a provincial championship despite a career ending leg injury to Craig due to a dirty hit. Armani was named captain the following season and managed to repeat as provincial champions, dedicating the victory to Craig who watched them from the stands. An award in the high school was also named after Craig that awards the most dedicated player. After his days of playing on the team were finally done, he joined the Toronto Marlies of the AHL. He put up ok numbers in his rookie season with 7 goals and 17 assists in 62 games. The next season he improved tremendously but was injured during the season with a groin injury, getting 22 goals and 33 assists in 45 games. He has since said that the injury was the most painful one far of his career. It would take a bit for him to recover and he almost missed the first few games of the following season. But he played through the pain amd the team actually reached the championship but unfortunately lost in six games. But throughout the season he had 42 goals and 33 assists and during the playoffs he had 10 goals and 6 assists. After the playoffs he was told that he had gotten to old to stay with the team and decided to sign a waiver free agency contract with the Philadelphia Reapers of the VHLM despite the fact that an Ontario team offered him due to wanting to see more of the USA.

Great Job Philly!

Story does contain elements of family passing away Armani Calamari is quite a unique name for quite the unique player with a very bittersweet story. A tall Center from Toronto Canada, he was born to Jay and Violet Calamari and was originally born in Alberta before his family decided to move to Toronto to be closer to family living in New York. Growing up with this name wasn't always easy as bullies would make fun if him for his last name and call him an octopus. As he was a tall gangly kid at that point he was an easy target before his eventual growth spurt.. But eventually he got some friends that didn't judge him for his name when he started to get into youth hockey where he was originally a goalie before transitioning to center during his second season. Jay was a programmer and engineer and mostly worked on several business servers. Violet was a head nurse for a local hospital. This meant they were all pretty wealthy though Armani was never able to get a sibling thanks to Violet's worsening health. She had an extremely bad heart condition that she took a lot of medicine for and often was worried that her time was limited. That is why she tried to take her family on many vacations across Canada and the USA to see various sporting events as she wanted to make sure she spent as much time as she could with her family. She also supported Armani in his hockey pursuits and tried to see as many games as she could. He became a big star on his youth hockey team but life at home was another story when his mother suddenly began to get extremely ill. They all hoped for the best but unfortunately but the worst came when Violet passed away due to several heart complications. This made him unable to enjoy hockey for quite a while before Jay was finally able to get through to him that he should continue playing in her memory and that she would have not wanted him to quit because he can't get over her passing. This motivated him and his team won a local youth league with him scoring the game winning overtime goal. Armani would continue his hockey dreams and would become quite the well known player. He would get a tattoo of his late mom's name on his arm as well. Jay would eventually remarry bit it took some time for him to get into a position where he could. He still works at his engineering job but was a frequent sight at his son's games. Eventually Armani got into the waivers program in the VHL and signed a free agency deal with the Philadelphia Reapers, this being the first time he had ever lived outside of the great white north. But he is ecstatic for the opportunity to show his stuff and is also looking forward to eating some Philadelphia cheesesteaka again after tasting them on a vacation once. He is also definitely looking forward to being a part of the Reapers championship push.
