BOOM

Thanks man.

With the Titans starting the season relatively slowly, do you have certain ways to break out of a slump? I don't think there's anything that I can do as an individual, that will assist in the reversal of the teams current form. Unless I volunteer to ride the pine to see if my removal see's any benefit. With news that the loss to Seattle was originally a 3-2 loss, does that change your feeling on anything to do with the team's less than ideal start? No. I expected better this season and for whatever reason it just hasn't clicked. I don't care if we lose 3-2 or 27-1....a loss is still a loss. If you could make one rule change to the league, what would it be? I've never come up with a suggestion to improve the VHL. I'm not about to start now. How do you like to spend your free time, away from the rink? Doing anything else besides play hockey. Gaming, sightseeing, dining. All the usual stuff. If you could make one rule change to the sport of hockey, what would it be? Make it a no-helmet sport. Let's see who the tough guys are then. What is your go-to pre-game meal? Poutine and a Gatorade. Yes, incredibly terrible combo.

I'm about to switch to defense. Fuck this.

3-2

Samesies

Not sure. I think it's premiering in March.

Congratulations Quebec. Too good.

Is this why everyone wants to appoint an AGM?

Well I'd like to donate my PT to a different teamate every week. Can I do that too?

Yes VHL fans, another week with no shitty player card to view. What gives? Well, after I completed a pretty terrible sig a few minutes ago, I couldn't bring myself to reopen photoshop and even attempt a card. I hate writing(that's why my bio and RP haven't been done yet) but graphics shit isn't very appealing either. Oh well, tough shit. Here in Helsinki, it seems like groundhog day. Wake up, play Riga, go to sleep, repeat. Seriously, can we please travel somewhere else other than Latvia? No offense, but it's hardly the most inspiring or entertaining place to visit. The only thing that I like from Latvia is Victor. Odinsson has started slowly this season and honestly, it's probably a truer reflection of his talents then he displayed last season, when he challenged(but failed) for the Rookie of The Year title. If people have, out of some kind of desperation, chosen him for their VHFL roster, I apologize in advance. I hope it doesn't cost you too much TPE at the end of the year. The rest of the Titans are doing well, so I hope that if you selected some of them, they will make up for the Odinsson handicap.

What were you doing when the clock struck midnight for 2019? I was asleep. I've seen enough fireworks to last me a lifetime, so I didn't give a shit this time around. Helsinki swept the board this off-season on free agent signings. Who's your favorite addition to the locker room? How can I be expected to answer this question honestly? I'd prefer us to focus on the team as a whole, and just say that we are in a good space right now with regards to the roster. Who would win in a drinking contest, Sidney Crosby or Vaydar Odinsson, and what would be their drink of choice? Sidney Crosby, easily. Odinsson drinks hard liquor, while Crosby only consumes weak, girly drinks like wine coolers or shit with an umbrella for decoration. We saw a few breakout performances last year from Borwinn, Crosby, and Odinsson. Who on the team will surprise the league most this season? It will probably be the continued rise of Alexander Pepper. He's going from strength to strength and shows no sign of slowing down. A very impressive young net minder. To start the season, we've faced Riga 4 times. How do you feel about those games, and does it change your outlook for the season? I mean, can we please play someone else for fucks sake? It hasn't changed my mind, but I'm sick of flying to that shitty Latvia to play hockey. What is your favourite VHL or VHLM logo, and why? I genuinely like the Helsinki logo, but credit where credit's due, Boubabi's Stockholm logo was pretty cool.

I think recruits got scared when they saw amazing Koenig was.

Free Doubles Week from Xmas Week

You're a bit late.

Well, that's one member that I have decided to forfeit making a sig for. Jesus.

Good for them. Titans simply couldn't get it done.

Kumbaya!

With Christmas finally over, it's time to look ahead to the new season, at last. Is there a team you are most excited to play against this season? Why or why not? No particular teams stand out right now. I want to beat all of them equally as badly. The World Junior Hockey Championships are currently taking place, in Vancouver. Which non-Canada team do you think has the best shot at winning Gold this year? What are the World Junior Hockey Championships? Do they even play ice soccer outside of Canadia? Do you ever make friendly bets on international tournaments? If so, what's the strangest bet you've made? Being mormon, I don't drink or gamble. It's OK to have a shitload of wives though, so I don't mind. Do you have any opening night superstitions? I always kiss my 9 wives before I hit the ice and arrange the order of copulation for when I get back home. It's just easier and avoids conflict. Hockey wise, not really, I just play how I'm supposed to play. Silly trinkets and things won't help me. This season, there will be the same number of rookies on opening night, 4, as last season, though they make up a much smaller portion of the roster this time around. Are there going to be any rookie initiation hi-jinks? Not from me. The rookies should already know that they are a part of the team. Hazing them is childish to me. I'd rather help them with training etc. With expansion becoming a more realistic proposition for the league, what city would you like to see added to the VHL's ranks? I'm not in a position to make such important decisions. That is why the Board of Governors gets paid the big bucks. I've liked the idea of a Russian team previously, so иди командой

I'm very torn on this. I've won titles with both!

Well, you could put your first 100 TPE into fighting, and still contend for the ROY.

Good work nerd.

Well here we are. Christmas has come and gone, boxing day has seen countless gifts exchanged and that Christmas ham is still only half finished. I'm in an odd mood, and truthfully that has been the case for a couple of weeks. I missed out on what I think may have been the property (well, 234 acres) that I thought would be my home until they carted me away in a coffin. Alas, extra tax payments that would have been payable, that were only discovered on the day of contract exchange, forced me to abandon the whole thing. Fuck life. Anyway, back to the VHL. I was slightly disappointed to receive only a single vote in the Titans leadership ballot, but I understand the situation and do realise that I'm no longer the member that I used to be. There is a more motivated and useful new member group in the league and it's great to see them active and involved. As for Odinsson, he's the player that I never expected to have. I'm not fully invested in him, but I won't retire him and have assured Quik that he will be a Titan for as long as he needs him. Quik took a chance on me not being a complete loser and deserves me to reward the faith shown. As for why I am writing, it's simply a complete lack of interest in doing GFX this week. I hope that interest returns soon, because its obvious that writing is not my greatest asset. Happy New year VHL, and here's to an excellent S64.
