  1. Diana Maxwell Profile Position: Right Wing Age: 22 | Height: 5'10" | Weight: 169 lbs Hometown: Minneapolis, MN, USA One of the earliest declared members of the Season 50 draft, Diana Maxwell comes into the VHL with high expectations as the daughter of Hall of Famer Benjamin Glover. She played college hockey for the University of Minnesota, following in her father's footsteps just as she is doing with the VHL. Despite this, she is looking to leave her own mark on the league rather than just being a reminder of Glover's legacy. A talented scorer, Maxwell has the potential to be the first overall selection in the historic Season 50 draft, with very early projects showing her has a top three pick. She was claimed off waivers by the Ottawa Lynx for the remainder of Season 48, with whom she will gain some early post-season experience. Maxwell will be entered in the Season 49 VHLM Dispersal Draft this upcoming off-season. Strengths Scoring: First and foremost, Maxwell is a goal scorer. This has been evident throughout her entire hockey career, and early on in her VHLM stint she is displying her prowess to a degree. In ten games, she has scored five goals, taking 3.6 shots per game. She still has much room to grow in this regard, but she has the potential to be a perennial top-five goal scorer. Work Ethic: Maxwell has lofty career goals, and she knows she'll have to work to achieve them. Make no mistake, she will put in the effort necessary just as she has to get to the point where she is today. She is the type who will gain an advantage over others when they start to slack rather than the other way around. Skating: Maxwell is quick on the ice, which facilitates her ability to score goals. She has highlight reels of her breakaway goals. Not only is she fast on the open ice, but she is also nimble in traffic. Her shiftiness around players opens up a lot of scoring opportunities for herself. Weaknesses Size: No doubt about it, Maxwell's size could become an issue for her. You won't see her throwing her body around much, but rather she is an easy target for opposing players. Her competition will only get bigger and stronger when she makes the jump to the VHL, which could make things tough for her 169 pound, 5'10" frame. If there is anything that will put a major hamper on her career, this is probably it. Passing: As demonstrated by her zero assists in the VHLM thus far, Maxwell likes to do the scoring herself. Her focus on the net sometimes causes her to miss an open teammate who has a better angle on the shot than she does. This is somewhat mitigated by her talent for scoring goals, but it is still something she needs to work on. Defense: One of Maxwell's major flaws is her inability on defense. While she isn't totally inept, she doesn't gives the opposition a good amount of space and doesn't create many takeaways. She tends to cheat toward the opposite side of the rink, trying to create a breakaway scenario; in this, she relies on her teammates to create turnovers.

  5. wtf no Diana is married to the son of a former player of mine if you listened to that podcast I created you'd know that!!! edit: and that also answers a bit why I created a female player. I wanted to make the offspring of Benjamin Glover, but at the same time I didn't really want to use the Glover name again. So instead I did it to pay homage to a player from another league by the power of marriage!
  6. Ha! The question about who you haven't been on a team with was a trick, we have played together! Geno Esposito and Phil Gerrard, S21 Seattle
