Taking no prisoners this season eh?!? 4) Trust the process and GM, but we’ve been rolling…so I think let it ride for a bit! 5) Bazooka the last couple sims has been lighting it up! I’d say I’m not surprised…but I’m surprised! Hahah 6) Bazookas a TTripleG…team guy, glue guy….so he’s hosting a big party for the boys…no expense spared!!

1) 6-3-1 gonna come out on a heater! 2) solid contribution from blue line and a plus rating in +- category. 3) progress, not perfection. Get better each week and go from there. 4) 28, growing up Domi was my fav…wore it when I played…no bazooka is carrying on the legacy! 5) Bazooka Joe! Hahah…anything is possible! Just need to earn more and I think he can be a contributor at the next level! 6) NHL deadline is always wild…the whole Milo Raantanan fiasco was wild…stars and avs looking good coming out of the west! Panthers looking strong in the East.

1) just excited to be a part of the club! No lunch, but I’ll take a Buffalo trace tho! 2) all trust in the management of the club. Full speed ahead? 3) let’s start something epic! I’ll be up next season! Let’s gooo!! 4) Lots of real life stuff…now back to the grind! 5) Bazooka is ready to make a splash next season for sure! 6) Both are important!

1) Nah, just focused on off season training…lots of whiskey and bazooka clappers. 2) Yes, need events like that to get new fans into the game. 3) Absolutely, do away with instigator penalty and let the boys get after it! 4) Yes, especially if when Bazooka gets to the show he can scrap with anyone in the vicinity of Sharky or Scurvy! 5) Yes, should give the boys some juice! 6) Huh?!?….Whatever nerd!…You, not your daughter. lol

1) probably could have done better, but I think some growing pains were expected. Looking forward to getting better for next season. 2) Bazooka did about what I expected…helped the club more than he hurt the club…so that’s a win! 3) Yeah, I think having a captain on a team promotes leadership and accountability. 4) being more active on discord! 5) I would say best player available, we need someone who can come in and make an immediate positive impact. 6) More offense I think would be the most important add this off season.

1) Not really. Just for degenerate gambling purposes! 2) Miami LR is legit! Love the vibe! 3) Yes, Always a good matchup against Halifax…and Scurvy always gets into trouble up in Nova Scotia…had to bail the AGM out a few times! 4) I’d trade for Bazooka Joe…total stud. Just needs some seasoning and guidance. 5) Miami is an all around solid team, anyone could step up and fill that role during playoffs. 6) Dogs all day…cats are assholes. lol

1) Yup! Turned it on at the right time. 2) Ninefingers…heart and soul of the room. 3) Rip! lol…switched positions let his teammates make it happen up front. 4) Logan 9s….just a stud all around. 5) Bollos….always energetically running his mouth! 6) Nah, the ship is all that matters. 7) I think curses can be real…hockey gods are real…always respect them.

1) I’m a sucker for a good deal…seems like that shit starts earlier each year…I remember one time I got up early and it was a shitshow… 2) Mostly online…too easy to spend all the money. 3) Electric roaster for turkey is a cheat code. 4) Nah, it’s like a week long…silly at this point. 5) nah 6) I’m sucked. Solid 1 point! lol 7) no idea! Haha

Part 2: Spittin' Chiclets Podcast #69 (niiice) - Bazooka Joe! Biz: [Laughs] Yeah man, wow, it was a wild night. I was just minding my own business, enjoying a nice steak…these jamokes start messing with the assistant manager of the restaurant, I go over to stand up for the guy, and these six idiots jumped me. You know boys, I took some, gave more…I fought them off, got a little banged up myself…but the boys in blue came in and carted em off to the county jail. Whit: That’s insane bro! We gotta figure out who this absolute loser oxygen thief’s are and blow their shit up all over the internet! Bazooka: Yeah, Biz you’re a different bread buddy….a man of the people! Biz: Thanks boys, pain meds are starting to wear off, need some Pink Whitney shots! Haha Whit: Well boys, that's all the time we have for today's episode of Spittin' Chiclets. Thanks for joining us, Bazooka Joe. Keep crushing it out there in Miami. And remember, always take your shots Pink Whitney, post game or pre if you’re feeling dangerous! Haha Bazooka Joe: Will do! Thanks boys, Preciate ya! Outro music plays 195 words

Part 1: Spittin' Chiclets Podcast #69 (niiice) - Bazooka Joe! Intro music plays Whit: Alright, welcome back to another episode of thee Spittin' Chiclets, brought to you by Pink Whitney Vodka, New Amsterdams own. The one vodka that’s as smooth as sauce backhand outta the D zone..Today, we've got a special guest, all the way from the tropical paradise of Miami, Florida. He’s a newcomer in the VHL minors, and honestly he’s on the Pod based on his name alone, Bazooka Joe! Welcome to the show, Bazooka. Bazooka Joe: Hey guys, thanks for having me. Listen all the time, I’m pumped to be on the show! Biz: Alright, so Bazoooooka! Haha, that’s fun to say…ok seriously though tell us, what was it like playing in the "M" for the last few games of season 96…was it a grind? Different from what you expected? A-lot of shots of the Ol Pink Whitney? Bazooka Joe: Yeah, it's was a bit of a grind, for sure. The games are tough and physical in the M, the travel's a little rough. But hey, it's hockey and I’m getting paid to play the game I love…oh and yeah, there was definitely some alcohol involved…more of a whiskey guy, but since I’m here I’ll say yeah, pink Whitney all day! Haha Murls: Speaking of grinds, let's talk about your first goal. What was that moment like? Did you celebrate like a wild man or keep it classy?! Bazooka Joe: (Laughs) I actually thought about a few different cellys, but I figured I'd keep it classy, and act like I’ve been there before…even though I haven’t! No, it a was a pretty special moment. I've been working hard, grateful to get picked up by the Marauders and to finally score that goal was a huge relief. I celebrated with the boys in the room after the game for sure. Whit: So, BJ..haha, that one might stick! Ok, so what's your offseason training regimen gonna look like? Do you spend your summers lifting weights and skating, or are you more of a "Netflix and chill" kind of guy? Bazooka Joe: I'm a pretty dedicated guy when it comes to training. Keep my head down and I hit the gym hard, I skate a lot, and I try to eat healthy. But I also make sure to have fun in between, and yeah, definitely hoping for some Netflix and chill with some of my new lady friends from south beach! Haha Biz: Alright, let's talk about the team chemistry eh? How are you guys gelling together? Any funny stories or pranks? Bazooka Joe: The guys are great. We've got a good mix of vets and young guys in the room, no egos though and everyone gets along. And ah, We've had some good laughs, but as my old pal scurvy says “this stays here” haha… Murls: Speaking of good laughs, Biz, what the hell happened over the weekend, social media is on fire bud, you jumped by six guys at Houston's the other night? Let the world hear straight from the horses mouth!………. 512 words Tune into part 2 on VHL.com

1) Haven’t even started! Bit my daughters have birthdays in November and December…so just been focused on that. 2) 1st, gotta string together some dubs, but I think it’s within reach. 3) nah, wolves Vs. anybody! 4) little bit of pressure off…let’s get through the regular season and gear up for a long playoff run. 5) it’s possible, just gotta keep grinding! 6) nope, never been into racing…although I’ve heard it’s fun to attend in person. I’ll fly out if you have an extra ticket!! lol 7) A turkey sandwich?!? Those are money! lol

@Ricer13 @Scurvy

Bazooka Joe! Well Rip is still wheelin’ and dealin’ with the Vancouver Wolves for his last hurrah….but, a new day has begun. Starting back in the M….I never thought I’d be playing in the VHL period, let alone starting in my second gen player! All the credit goes to Scrvy and Sharky aka Thunder. The two guys that talked enough shit, guilt tripped me enough to become part of the VHL family. Along the way, I’ve “met” some really cool people..Ricer, Frank and Gaikoku-hito…along with everyone else in that spent time in the wranglers and wolves locker rooms. Preciate you guys! I’m not the best earner or an every day locker room guy…but I’m trying! lol Anyways, I’m back at it with “Bazooka Joe”…and have found a mid season landing spot with the Savages from south beach! Super pumped to be a part of the Marauders fam and looking forward to the upcoming VHLM draft! The name, well it kinda just happened. Scurvy has some influence, but when I think of Bazooka Joe…I think of bubble gum, America, and big time clappers from the blue line. And along with bourbon, these are some of my favorite things! So, that’s what it’s gonna be moving forward…Joes gonna be a bit of a meat head, but with some skills to help the boys on both ends of the ice.

Thanks!

1) TNT - AC/DC 2) Hockey, NHL late 80s early 90s enforcer hayday. 3) pregame shot of Blanton’s, neat. Just to get the juices flowing. 4) Solid tender is the backbone of any successful team. Shutouts make it easy in the boys up front! Just score a geno and it’s a dub! 5) Always good to add some sandpaper to the room…grit and glue…hallmarks of a team built to last. 6) set up the goal…as a defensemen especially, my job is to feed the boys…set em op for success!

1) yeah! Right near the top of the NA standinga! 2) I mean, depreciation is a mutha! But, rips contributing…and that’s all I want…help the club put up wins. 3) Nah, if it ain’t Waylon or whiskey myers, I’m out! 4) yup! This seasons leadership group is solid! 5) Ninefingers - Hater Jones. And Bollos - Old dog, same tricks! 6) Weekend after thanksgiving…any other answer is wrong.

1) Russia hacked the server. 2) 0 3) Hoping the transition to defense helps the club. I’d like rip to keep a point per game average…probably more assist heavy this season. 4) First place in our conference. Long playoff run. 5) Riga tanks after winning the cup last season. 6) absolutely no idea.

@jacobcarson877 @Josh @Spartan

Interviewer: Rip, thanks for joining us tonight…you're coming off a solid regular season. How do you feel going into the playoffs? Rip: Ah, man, I'm feeling uh, pretty good baud. We've uh, got a great team, and uh we're playing some really good hockey right now ya know. And uh, I’m uh excited to see what we can do in playoffs. Interviewer: Any particular teams you're looking forward to facing? Rip: Nah, um ah, not really. I mean, I'm uh, always up for a good challenge, but uh, ya know, I don't really have any uh specific teams in mind. I just want to play whoever's in front of us and try to beat them…and uh if we uh play our game, the uh rest will take care of itself. Interviewer: You're known for your sense of humor off the ice. Any funny moments during the season you can share? Rip: honestly baud, I’m kinda locked in right now…and uh just focused…I’ve taken the bye week and uh really dialed it in…and uh I feel ready ya know, uh ready to make a run. Locked in baud. Interviewer: Any words for the youngsters looking forward to a long Vancouver wolves playoff run? Rip: Just uh ya know, buckle up…we uh have put in the uh work and uh ya know It's a tough league, but if you keep believing yourself and the boys (and girl) in the room…and uh if you uh work hard and keep your head down uh, anything is within reach. Interviewer: Thanks for the time Rip and good luck in the playoffs! Rip: Thanks baud, we’re ready and uh locked in and loaded…excited to get er goin!

1) Seattle in 5. 2) Nah, when we get to the end and face whoever, it ain’t gonna matter. Gonna be in beast mode. 3) No clue…focused on mental reps and making sure I don’t let sharky and scurvy down. 4) Just nose to the grindstone, hard work and dedication…and whiskey. 5) Van all day everyday…feeling good about the momentum we have from the end of the year..let’s ride! 6) I think the curse isn’t real, but I predict Moscow will not make it back to the finals.

1) I think expectations were high this season and rightfully so. If Sharky aka Thunder didn’t piss off Simon we would’ve had a better start. Hopefully that’s behind us as we gear up for the playoffs! 2) I think Rip has met expectations. Would like to see him breakout during the playoffs. 3) I was playing in a in-line tournament in Vancouver when I was 19…absolutely smoked a dude on an open ice (sport court? lol) hit..got 5 and a game. As I was coming back from the locker room he jumped me outside the rink and tuned me up pretty good….then later we had beers in the parking lot..good times z 4) No idea…I agree with whatever Frank thinks. 5) Seattle, love smashing them. 6) Liv Slater…total stud this season!

Rookie Stories and recap with Scotty P: VHL: Games: 72 Goals: 3 Assists: 3 Pointe: 6 Hits: 129 Season 89, Calgary Wranglers: What a shitty showing for Rips first year in the show! 6 points in 72 games…hopefully the fireball in the locker room and partying on the weekends made up for it! Definitely still learning my way in the VHL, but damn…I forgot how dismal it was! Glad I had some studs to make our season a success by getting to the playoffs. Rip was invisible in the playoffs, which matched his horrid regular season output. For rookies, sometimes you’re the hammer…but for the most part, Rip was the nail. VHLE: Games: 72 Goals: 15 Assists 19 Points: 34 Hits: 158 Season 88, Oslo Storm: Slightly better than Rips first season in the show…still not exactly tearing up Europe! 34 points was decent, and a respectable 158 hits! Again, lucky to be surrounded by much better talent that helped get Rip 34 points in the 72 games. Another longer stint in the playoffs, which was fun to actually experience in Europe…if I remember right it was 13 games which got us close to the ship! VHLM: Games: 72 Goals: 30 Assists: 47 Points: 77 Hits: 194 Season 87, Las Vegas Aces: Rip actually tore it up in his first ever season. 194 hits along with averaging more than a point per game with 30 goals and 47 assists. I enjoyed my time with the aces and it was a fun locker room. I was still learning my way with Rip and in hindsight probably could have made Rip even more productive if I had a clue how to earn like a boss! Which I still struggle with! Haha A playoff stint helped me to learn what it takes to get there and about how it all works in the VHL. If I had a regret is was probably not staying another year in the VHLM. Would been a producer and enabled me to learn more about earning TPE and what it takes to make it all happen in the VHL. NHL rookie memories: Pavel Bure aka the “Russian Rocket”: The Russian Rocket stormed out of the gates with 60 points (34 goals, 26 assists) in 65 games in 1991-92. He ended up winning the Calder Trophy as the NHL's top rookie. I remember watching him play that year…I was young (6 at the time), but have a solid memory. He was like a cheat code with his crazy speed, end to end rushes and highlight reel goals. He was young and new and just took the league by storm. That was my first girly jersey, #10 in the Canuck’s black yellow and red! And as his career progressed playing with Alexander Mogilny and Trevor Linden. Some of my favorite Canuck’s at that time was Gino Odjick. Just a savage hockey player with the toothless look to match! I’ll never forget. The battles of Alberta, the coaches corner with Don Cherry and Ron Maclean…some of my favorite memories was hanging with my dad and watching Hockey Night in Canada double headers. “Old time hockey”…”when I doubt get it out”, “he’s an absolute beauty!”.
