1. It's huge because wildcard match you'd have to knock off one extra strong team just to really feel like you're in it to begin with. 2. The goaltending see which team has the hotter goalie. 3. Getting on the ice everyday and keeping my head in the game. 4. I think everyone needs to pull together it's not just going to be one person. 5. My wristshot is what has improved the most. 6. I still think there are some trades in the works.

1. It means we'll be playing meaningful games all year and we should be ready for when the games really count. 2. There's still plenty of room for growth this year and for years to come. 3. I have complete faith in our tendie he will be a top goalie this year and more to come. 4. I think our strongest asset at the moment is our elite defense group led by Skor McFleury 5. I'm always down for some poker. 6. I've got nothing planned for this year but hoping to do something some time next year.

Congrats, I got my first Hattrick in yesterdays sim too, against the team that drafted me no less.

with about thirty games played in the season I thought I'd take a look at front runners for the Rookie of the year honors in Season 94. I don't know exactly how the winner is typically chosen so this is all just my own personal feelings on who is in the lead at the moment. 1. Riga Reign - Lucy Leitner - The third overall pick of the season 93 draft is my current pick for the lead of the rookie class for this year. The rearguard for the Riga Reign is averaging 31 minutes a game and has looked incredible on both ends of the ice boasting 26 points in 31 games played with eight goals and eighteen assists has her sitting at 20th in defenseman scoring and is in a four-way tie for 8th in defenseman goals and she has been a huge contributor to Riga's solid start to the season and she should only get better from here. 2. Davos HC - Antonia Bucatini - The first overall pick of the season 93 draft and the unanimous favorite to win this award going into the season, I currently have her sitting just barely behind Leitner in this early part of the season. Although she is not leading the race in my eyes her start has been maybe even better than anyone expected currently sitting 30th in league scoring with 36 points in her 30 games played so far with 14 goals and 22 assists she is averaging 30 minutes a game for a struggling Davos squad who will be looking to add another top prospect in the upcoming draft and I'm sure Bucatini will be working even harder the rest of the way to add another award for her trophy case. 3. Calgary Wranglers - David Slezak - The 20th overall pick from the season 91 draft is the biggest surprise for a lot of people this season, and if I did this list even just a couple of days ago I think he would be number one on this list. He has backstopped Calgary to a solid start that saw them sitting atop the North American conference for the first 20 or so games of the season. Slezak has a 19-10-1 record in 30 games and has a solid 0.920 save percentage and a GAA of 2.73 and has 1 shutout so far. Calgary will need him to continue his solid play if they're going to hold on to a playoff position, and it would not shock me if Slezak moves up this list before the end of the season. for a pair of honorable mentions that will be in the discussion for sure near the end of the year are Gul Dukat of the Toronto Legion who has 2 goals and 19 assists as a solid puck moving defenseman, and Gianfranco Del Rocco who currently has 12 goals and 10 assists for the North American conference leading Seattle Bears. With the majority of the season still to go it's any ones guess who will take home the rookie of the year trophy but I'd wager it will be someone on this list. We're getting into the middle of the season now and will see if these young players can keep up the solid pace that they've had so far.

1. I think it's a good start but I feel like we can move up the standings more. 2. We have some great veteran defensemen for her to learn the ropes from I imagine that's a big help 3. Always pushing a bit harder than yesterday. 4. Read manga or a book 5. Probably Prague just because so far playing there seems more relaxing than let's say in Warsaw or Toronto. 6. It seemed kind've weird that it took so long for the finals to start but now that their here they should finish up around mid June leaving a couple weeks or so to the draft.

The VHL Season is now about two weeks old and some teams have lived up to expectations such as teams like the Seattle Bears and the London United who sit near the top of their respective conferences. There are teams who are pleasantly surprised with how their season has played out so far, the Calgary Wranglers immediately comes to mind in that regard, and of course teams whose start wasn't what they were expecting two teams I would put on that list are the Warsaw Predators and the Vancouver Wolves. Speaking on the Wolves, they were expecting to be near the top of the North American Conference with all the additions they had made prior to the start of the season as well as with the progression of their rookies from the previous season. Of course not everything goes as well as it is written on the whiteboard and the team found itself struggling in the early days of the season, so much so they decided to shake things up early on. They would come to an agreement with the Riga Reign that would see them acquire forward Martin Kemp, and top center prospect Pierre Marc Bouchard as well as a season 96 third-round pick. Martin Kemp seems to have immediately meshed with the team putting up seven goals and eleven points in just ten games since arriving and is helping Vancouver push their way up the standings. In order to make this deal, the Wolves had to move veteran forward The Frenchman as well as rookie right winger Annie Oaks with the addition of a season 95 Calgary second-round pick. While The Frenchman was performing well for Vancouver with five goals and twelve points in thirteen games played Oaks seemed to struggle in that time only scoring two points in the same amount of games and with this being Frenchman's final season maybe they thought they'd go younger while still maintaining a strong roster for this season. Speaking on the play of the players that Riga acquired in this deal so far The Frenchman has put up four goals and six points in the ten games since joining the team and Annie Oaks has scored three goals and five points in those same games while getting used to playing a lesser role on a third line playing about nine minutes a game. It's safe to assume that after a great offseason for Oaks that saw her tear up the World Juniors while winning gold for team Europe that she would have a better start to her VHL career but it seems her VHLE struggles will follow her into the top league. Riga itself like Vancouver made some big moves this offseason hoping to compete around rookie sensation Lucy Leitner picking up notable talents such as Skor and Oreo McFleury as well as Sadie St-Louis and sit just outside the top three teams in the European Conference. With the addition of a veteran leader such as The Frenchman Riga is hoping to move up the standings to solidify their position early in the year.

1. As of today I am here. My player is Annie Oaks and I'd like a weekly presser if possible. 2. I just arrived so there's going to be even more meshing now. 3. It's tough to say, but hopefully I can contribute positively to the future of the club. 4. At that pace I can't see any reason he can't reach 50. 5. I don't have a lot of expectations for this year just hoping to help out however I can. 6. McDavid and Draisaitl look unstoppable, I though it would be Dallas to be honest. But I think Florida grinds them down and gets their first cup.

maybe I'm wrong but I've seen so many articles regarding Antonia Bucatini as a "He" but I'm pretty sure it's a female player guess you'd have to ask @CowboyinAmericato be absolutely certain.

World Juniors Team Europe Round Robin Recap. In the first game of the World Juniors Championship round robin for Europe we would see a nail biter of a game between them and team Canada it would end 5-4 for Team Canada being led by a three goal one assist performance by Nathan Ecker. On the other side we Europe had solid performances from Annie Oaks putting up two goals and Dan Jr who put up the other two goals for Team Europe. After dropping game one of the tournament Europe would then have to put it behind them and look to their next match. Game two would see team Europe and team World go head to head Europe would get a huge performance from goaltender David Slezak who would stop 42 of 44 shots. Annie Oaks would put up another two goals with Vanuza Kolesinka, Antonia Bucatini, and Scrungle Bungle each adding one goal to give Europe to give them a 5-2 victory for their first win of the tournament. Piston Maicupp and Taylor Swift were the goal scorers for team World with goalie Jorgen Lovstrom stopping 46 of 51 shots. Europe will be looking to build momentum off this big win. Game three would see Canada and Europe rematch, Europe would out score Canada in the first period two to one with goals coming from Maverick Goncalves and Antonia Bucatini with Wayne Gretzky scoring Canada's goal. There would be no scoring in the middle frame and then The Phantom of the VHL would score an insurance goal for team Europe midway through the third period to give them the two goal lead. Aleksanteri Kaskiniemi-Kekkonen would stop 30 out of 31 shots to help them to a 3-1 win. Herald Benson was stellar in the loss for Canada stopping 50-53 shots but Canada couldn't get the offense they needed and Europe gets revenge for game one. Game four was Europe agains team USA each team would put up two goals in the first period to go into the second tied but Phil Taylor and Vanuza Kolesinka would each add a goal in the second for team Europe to propel them to a 4-2 win over USA improving their record to 3-1 in the round robin and looking to keep their win streak alive. Game five would see Europe go up against team World and they would get six goals from five different players in this game that would help them to a big 6-3 win keeping their win streak alive at four games. In game six team Europes top line would dominate scoring three of their four goals in the 4-3 win over team Asia. Maverick Goncalves would lead the way putting up three points while Annie Oaks and Antonia Bucatini would each add a goal and an assist for Europe to improve their win streak to five games. Game seven is a rematch of last game and it's the same story just with better defense for Europe each member of the top line for Europe would score a goal and add an assist helping their squad to a 4-1 win over team Asia for their sixth win in a row. Game eight and the final game of round robin play would see Europe match up with team USA this would be a tight game that would be won 2-1 with Annie Oaks eighth goal of the tournemant to improve their win streak to seven to end round robin play.

The Vancouver Wolves Training camp took place earlier this week and it saw some returning players but also an influx of new talent. The Wolves were busy over the offseason looking to add and compete now. The first trade they made ahead of the draft was to add one of if not the best defenseman in the league in Mark Calaway from the D.C. Dragons they sent a first, second, and third, in season 95 as well as a third for this years draft to get the deal done. The next day they would be a part of a three way trade that would see Malmo Acquire Vlad Von Carstein and Helsinki would recieve Ocean Codoller, Mikko Borisyuk, A season 96 second and a season 94 third. Vancouver would pick up Owen Lazaro to help up out front getting the best player in the deal. Up next Vancouver would make another deal with D.C. getting star forward The Frenchman for young defenseman DB IV and a Season 96 second and third. A few days later Vancouver would make one last trade sending a season 96 first and a season 94 third to Prague in exchange for a season 95 second and forward Rip Wheeler to round out the forward group. A couple other changes to the roster we'll see Annie Oaks suit up for her first season with the Wolves and Left Alone will be trying his hand at playing on the blueline for the club. With all of the additions this team is expected to be a top team in the league it should be an exciting year in Vancouver.

1. No I wasn't able to watch it live, I think adding a defenseman was really good, don't know about this goalie though. 2. I think once Soju's rookie contract is up one of the two will be traded. 3. I think he's okay with playing elsewhere otherwise he likely would've tanked his interviews better. 4. I took part in it, and it was wild I fought in almost every game and I think in the first game I played in we won 13-9 and all 9 goals for the other team were scored by one player. 5. I don't know maybe find some way to include aggregate scoring in the playoffs. 6. I'm playing for team Europe We have a few members who will be involved so I'll enjoy seeing how we all do.

That Blueline is stacked.

1. As I've not been here for very long I've done all my stuff at my desktop so far. 2. I haven't watched wrestling since the early 2000's. The trade makes our blueline elite. 3. Three way trades are always awesome, with an add like this we should have one of the best rosters this year. 4. With all these adds it's postseason or bust 5. As I never got to play with any of them I don't have on I'll miss the most 6. I have no idea and I don't really plan on speculating.

In the Cologne Locker room Annie Oaks quietly packs her stuff up before going to speak with the Cologne media one final time before moving on. One reporter asks: "How do you feel your season was here in Cologne" Annie: "I feel like I did alot of things right this year and worked on some aspects of my game that needed some work. However I would be lying if I said I was happy with my year, so I'm going to continue to work through the off season in order to improve and have the best season I can this upcoming year." Reporter asks: "any comments on how the psotseason went this year" Annie: "We had a very tough opponent in round one and it was a tight series all the way. That being said the expectation was to win the cup and we didn't do that so we failed to meet what was expected of us, the fans deserved a cup and we couldn't deliver." Reporter asks: "how do you feel about the teams chances in the upcoming season." Annie: "The roster shouldn't be changing much and so I suspect that Cologne will once again be a top team in the league. I would even say I think they'll be the favorite to win the cup next year." Reporter says: "do you have any last things you'd like to say to the fans of Cologne before you leave for Vancouver" Annie: "I'd like to thank the fans for supporting us all year and coming out to all the games making the environment in that Cologne arena one of the best places I've played yet. I hope you will continue to cheer on your team and have your cheers rewarded with a cup as soon as possible."
