A recent addition to the Houston Bulls of off waivers is the ever-humble, Johnny Tsunami. Potent with offensive vision and playmaking ability, Tsunami joins an already offense heavy Bulls that sit 3rd in the standings as a result. "I know that I am the missing piece that Houston needs to push them from 3rd to 1st", Tsunami told reporters prior to his first ever practice day with his new teammates. New linemates Elf Shoes (@ELF_SH0ES) and Cole Stermer (@Bazeus) stand to improve on their already league-leading points totals - both at 27 points at the 18-game mark of the season. "I'm only gonna serve 'em up fresh dimes. If they're not scoring even more...than well I got a problem." Tsunami made it clear why he chose Houston as his first foray into the VHLM, "...they have the least amount of pieces missing in my opinion. I fill a hole that didn't really need to be filled but definitely helps solidify the team - once the front office gets some defense in here... let's just say if you think Houston was doing well before I got here, just wait."

1. The season has started! Through the first week of sims, how has your player been performing? Just joining the team, I can see that we are very strong offensively and I certainly hope to only add to that potent offense. I'm looking forward to my first few games with the guys myself and I'm sure that we'll be able to keep the momentum moving forward. 2. Houston has been playing some good hockey to kick start our season. What has been your player's go to pre-game meal/routine/ritual to get ready to play each game? Well you gotta load up on your protein and carbs before the game, so a dish called Loco Moco is what I like to make right before the game. It's just white rice, a hamburger patty, an egg and some brown gravy! Super simple, but very delicious and it gets me all the energy I need! 3. On the road can be a bore with all the travel time and just sitting around. When the team hops on the team bus or jet for games, what keeps you busy while traveling? This is going to sound a bit cliche, but just a good ole hackeysack is all I need. Just enough for me to pass the time by passing it around to myself. I can bounce it off walls, people, chairs, you name it! 4. If you remember last week I asked how you think we would play in the first 10 games. Fast forward and we finished 6-4! What has been keeping us above a .500 record so far? Like I said before, this time has a very potent offense and it shows! We out score our opponents by a lot when we win, and keep it close when we lose. The offense has to be a contributor to the game. 5. Houston needs defence! We left the draft only securing two and it shows on the stat sheet as our current defenders play a lot of minutes. Should management start considering trades? Should we wait until trade deadline? Should we hope for a waiver to sign? What would you do to sign another defender for the team? Man, they really roll the dice on waiting for waiver signings. But let's be real, they also picked me up off the waivers and I already know I'm going to be a star. I have a lot to prove, so I'll just let my skill speak for me on the ice. 6. Tell me something funny about growing up playing hockey (or make something up for your player). I remember when I was growing up playing I was at my teammate's house on the lake and they shovel the ice to skate on it. We were a little too excited to get started and the ice wasn't fully solid yet. I fell right through about 2 feet deep of water and was soaked. I actually never learned to ice skate until pretty recently. Growing up in Florida, it's easier to come by a street rink for roller blades than it is an ice rink or practice arena. So I got scouted from a street hockey circuit instead of the traditional ice hockey path. All that said, I looked real dumb getting used to pucks instead of balls!

My first graphic back from break. Be gentle.

Hit the nail on the head.

Don't open the Spoiler if you're a Moscow fan. If you like memes, open the spoiler.

I've literally got a Moscow meme on deck waiting for Game 7.

On one hand, the closure a team needs. On the other, the meme potential has never been at its highest.

Better than the HoF!

Forever Legion!

Let's go Moreau!

GGs Seattle, good series. Scrappy as hell too!

Oh I actually never knew this kinda thread existed. Gonna be gone for the rest of the Spring semester. Which finished this week so I'll be more active now. Probably just in forums though.

Me and @dasbootfighting in multiple games now. Hmm.

COME ON COMRADES!

Good write up as always!

That would be kind of a unique "challenge" for GMs. Something like a 5% reduction per 2 years with the franchise uninterrupted as a "retention" bonus or something.

Even if I lowkey get called a horrible decision, I still enjoyed the time I spent with you and the things that you taught me about GMing a VHLM team. I hate that my work schedule picked up as much as it did, but hopefully it dies down later in the year like it did last year so that I can spend more time on it. Thanks for your help with everything and thank you for your time as GM!

I'm so glad to see that you are enjoying the league!

We should probably update the HoF first haha

Woah! I was in a trade tree?! These things are always fun to read.
