1. We are currently up 3-1 against Prague. Could this be the year we break the Davos Cup curse? If you are answering this presser after the series, did we make it back to the Cup Final?! A1: I couldn't tell you. But what I will say is that this team is special and deserves to be remembered. We just have to earn it! 2. ProAm signings just opened up! Are you going to participate? 3. What is one suggestion you would offer to make the offseason more interesting? A2: the team that wins the JST gets added to the VHLM so it's a constant rotation of teams 4. Make an acronym for the word ‘DAVOS’! A3: Don't Attack Vampires On Sunday 5. After this season, we will unfortunately be losing Mason Jones and Alexandre Leduc to retirement. How would you describe these Davos legends in your own words? 6. Were you shocked that Vladimir Tarasenko decided to sign with Ottawa? A4: I think it's a good fit. Ottawa will be a playoff team soon and having a veteran like him might be what they need for a good playoff run. 7. Have you watched Barbie or Oppenheimer yet? Or even planning to see them? A5: I have not but I might watch Oppenheimer. 8. Do you prefer reading physical books or eBooks? A6: Physical. I have a few cool hardcovers I've collected and they look so pretty and feel great to hold.

Welcome back! Your previous player Erik Finck was a great addition to our team this season in Istanbul. We're excited to see what you'll do with your new player!

1. Our first playoff matchup will be against Riga! What is one thing we can do to make sure we secure the series win? A1: We gotta take an early lead in the series. Forcing them on the back foot and causing them to risk more dangerous plays will help us win. Make them make mistakes. 2. What is your player doing on our bye week right now? A2: I believe he'd be training, arranging team nights out, and trying his best to make sure he's ready both mentally and physically for the battles to come. 3. Do you believe the team who wins the Victory Cup is always cursed in the playoffs? 4. Predict the NA conference champion! A3: Calgary. I want a Jones vs Janser final. 5. Are there any NHL free agency signings or trades that shocked you so far this offseason? A4: I think Max Domi will be massive for the Maple Leafs. He's the kind of depth player we need in my eyes. 6. Do you participate in fantasy sports at all? 7. What is the most random fun fact you know? A5: The "Hands of Gold" Song in Game of Thrones (The song Ed Sheeran sings in the series) was written by a bard in order to blackmail Tyrion Lannister about his relationship with Shae. 8. Debate question incoming: Do you think there are more eyes or legs in the world? A6: I can't say I often see someone missing an eye. So I'm gonna say eyes.

Thank you for all your effort in helping us win the King's Cup! It was probably the best season of my GM career and I'm happy you were a part of it Let's go get another trophy!

I'll AGM if needed

IT has been an honor! Let's make it a season to remember and make some history!

Happy Birthday, VHL!

1. Time flies when you’re winning! We are nearing the end of the regular season. What is one word to describe this S89 Davos squad? A1: Elite. 2. Are you happy with your player’s performance this season? Did you improve from S88? A2: At first it didn't seem like my player would do much better, but after the last sim, my player looks like they'll have a career-high in points if he keeps playing like that. 3. Which EU team would you most look forward to facing in the playoffs? A3: We have some unfinished business with London. I always enjoy facing Siyan and Adam. 4. Which NHL player would you say your player is most similar to? A4: I'll go with John Tavares. He's a very consistent player, great at taking away the puck, scoring goals, and setting up plays. 5. Since there has recently been an emphasis on recruitment lately, what do you think the league should do to maintain high levels of retention? 6. The FIFA Women’s World Cup is fast approaching! Who are you rooting for? 7. What sports do you enjoy watching other than hockey? A5: Sports Entertainment Wrestling. It's hard to explain why but I just enjoy the storytelling and the feeling I get when I watch an instant classic match. 8. What is your favorite pizza topping? A6: Assuming Pepperoni and Cheese are given. I'd go with Mushrooms. I'm a big fan of the "Canadian Pizza"

Player Name: Lionel Collberg Age: 18 Birthday: July 9th Birthplace: Nuuk, Greenland Height: 6’1ft Weight: 203lbs Shoots: Right STRENGTHS Personality: Lionel is a very mature individual despite his age. According to his former teammates, he rarely gets upset and goes out of his way to encourage players while on and off the ice. Former coaches have stated that Lionel doesn’t care where he plays in the lineup and puts in 100% effort at all times. This was on display in a recent Reapers game when Lionel only played 3:38 minutes and scored the game-winning, powerplay goal. Offense: His awareness may be his greatest strength, but his ability to read plays both on offense and defense makes him a threat on both ends of the ice. Spending most of his early career as a Center, Lionel possesses great offensive upside which has made him an exceptional playmaker. Skating: He uses his dynamic skating to swiftly get into attacking lanes and he’s not afraid to sacrifice his body to block shots. His speed is one of his greatest strengths, if he’s caught out of position he’s able to catch up to attackers and break up plays from behind. Defense: Thus far, Lionel has made a seamless transition into a defensive role for the Philadelphia Reapers. His tremendous stickwork has been on display, disrupting plays and forcing attackers to attempt risky passes more often, allowing Lionel’s teammates to come away with the puck. Passing: Lionel demonstrates tremendous passing abilities in almost every game with slick passes up the ice. Though it’s a double-edged sword, his confidence leads him to attempt risky passes, forcing the puck through defending players to set up one-timers, which doesn’t always work out and may not be effective at higher levels of competition. WEAKNESSES Physical Play: Lionel doesn’t use lay the body as often as one might expect from a player with his frame. Though he has demonstrated in recent games he is capable of making bone-crunching hits. The Reapers coach seems to have brought that playstyle out of the young defender and we hope we’ll see more of it as his career progresses. Shooting: Lionel’s shot may be his weakest asset. Though he’s not afraid to shoot the puck, his shots are often aimed low or at the goalie's chest. Perhaps a good faceoff team would benefit from having this player, as it’d allow for more offensive draws. Word Count: 402

1. In the spirit of theme week, what is one thing you would do if you were the commish of the VHL for a day? A1: Add the JST Steel team to the VHLM. 2. If you had to choose a topic for theme week, what would you pick? A2: I think an Arcade theme week could be cool. Have people make retro game covers for their graphics and stuff. 3. The trade deadline is looming! Are there any moves that you think we should make, or are you content with our roster? A3: I like our roster as it is. Though I won't complain if we acquire a backup goaltender for future seasons. 4. If there was an emergency backup situation, how do you think your player would fare in the crease for Davos if called upon? A4: Not well, aside from my first season I haven't been willing to block many shots for the team. 5. Have you ever attended an NHL game live before? 6. How has NHL free agency gone for your favorite team so far? A5: Confusing. Leafs acquired a bunch of players and are 8M over the cap, so I'm interested to see how we clear it. 7. What is your favorite song right now? A6: I really enjoy Four Letter Words by I the Mighty. They were my favorite band since I was 17 or 18 and helped me get through a few things. (Too bad the singer turned out to be a dickhead and it makes it very difficult to enjoy their music now) 8. Out of the many upcoming video games set to release this year, which are you most excited for? If any?

I'll start assuming Bek hasn't answered this before somewhere. 1: Which team is his favorite team for Branding (Logo and Colors and whatnot)

As long as I'm still in charge of the Redwolves I'll be happy. Doesn't matter which league I'm in, I'll make sure the Redwolves are the best they can be. What I'm saying is don't delete my team please XD

In honor of our recent jersey retirement ceremony, I think it's time we continue a tradition where we keep track of the numbers our amazing players have worn and will wear in future seasons. C) Legacy Gaming (#15) A) Ronald Johnson MacWallace III (#27) A) Steve Lattimer ( Tord Yvel Ray Withers Loki Baker DMD Mikhail Lospenov Nick Sansoe McDonalds Bigmac Austin Goulet Jordan Bennett Ben Laas (#37) Erik Finck Evan Bihler (#14) Wiley Blanchette

I think it's about to announce our first honorary Jersey Retirement in Istanbul. Please help me welcome Raihan Heavems @RstortonYT to the Redwolves Hall of Fame! In the first-ever VHLE season, Heavems proved his elite talent by leading the league in goals. He played 190 games with us and in that time he scored 106 Goals and 127 Assists for a total of 233 Points, earning him 2nd place among points leaders for the Redwolves while also maintaining 4th place in playoff production for the Franchise with a total of 7 Games played, 4 Goals, 12 Assists, and 16 Points.

1. Our current scoring leader is Alexandre Leduc with 47 points in 34 games as of July 2nd, closely followed by Jake Thunder with 46 in 34! Who do you predict will lead our team by the end of the season? A1: I'm gonna go with Pete Mitchell. He was leading us early on and I think he'll be great in the second half. 2. Is a team’s winning record the best reflection of their success? A2: Few people are gonna care about Boston's amazing season because they didn't win the cup. Winning the cup is the best indication of success in my opinion. 3. Our rivalry with Moscow is now heating up as we fight for the first place spot in the EU. What can we do to slow them down? A3: I don't think we should worry about slowing down one team. Our focus should just be on our team and polishing our game so we have nothing to complain about when the big games start. 4. What is your player’s best and worst STHS attribute? A4: I'm not gonna go literal with his one. His worse one is Faceoffs because he's no longer a center. His best attribute has leadership. I don't think leadership actually does anything but how else would you explain how often he scores in the playoffs and how many Game Winning Goals he gets. 5. In your opinion, what was the most surprising pick of the first round in the 2023 NHL draft? A5: As a Leafs fan I have to say Easton Cowan. Not only do we not need a forward, the player was projected to be a 3rd round pick and we spent a 1st round pick on them. 7. Do you currently have any pets? If so, what are their names? A6: I have a lovely 13-year-old doggo named Ellie. My family has had her since she was a pup and she's pretty much a sister to me, I mean she has to be, she's been with me for half my life.
