1. We've started in the middle of the pack but are leading the Low Division. Where can we improve to make sure we maintain that lead? We can probably improve on our scoring and defense to get better over other teams. 2. Whose start has been more surprising so far: Seattle or Toronto? I would say Seattle, I expected them to do quite a bit better. 3. Is Joseph McWolf gonna finish with more hits or more PIMs this season? Hopefully hits, we don't want him in the box too much! 4. Who has been the biggest key to the team so far this season? The addition of a strong Defenceman like McWolf has been huge for us! 5. We have the second most PIMs in the league and the third worst PK%. What can we do to improve those numbers? Stop taking bad penalties and work on our defense and penalty kill more in practice 6. Who has been the unsung hero of the team so far this season? Fredrik Elmebeck has done a great job blocking shots and moving the puck around. Edited Sunday at 06:19 PM by .sniffuM

Who makes it out for Europe? Late to the party, but I would have said Riga (like I did in my preseason predictions)! If the VHLM were to move Mexico but keep logo/name, where would you rebrand em to? Hmm that's tough, the Aztec logo is really fitting for Mexico. I would say San Diego since they have a team called the Aztecs but they already have a VHLM team. What are your thoughts on 12 days of Christmas? Always nice to get a little TPE though having to log on everyday during the holidays can be tough for some people which isn't ideal. What are you doing this year for the holiday season? Went back home to spend time with friends and family. What are you hoping to get for presents this year? No real presents, it's just been a while since I was back home so time with friends and family was the best present. Tell the league and those who lurk creepily reading these... a fact about you as a member. I have been in Sim Leagues since 2013 and am somehow still around!

2. One of the aforementioned moves brought @McWolf back home to the Americans, how do you feel about his addition to the squad? McWolf is a veteran member who should bring us a huge boost on the blueline. Looking forward to him joining the team. 3. Young guns Ristenen (@Maasa) and the Gutzwiler brothers (@Gwdjohnson & @DaftRaincloud) join the squad as well via the VHL Draft. How do we feel about the rookie additions? A couple of familiar names there that I'm happy to have join the team! Hoping they can find good success in the VHL. 4. Although you never really know with our lord Simon, we look poised to make a run at the cup this season. How far do you think we'll go? We had a hard fought series with the cup champions so I don't see why we can't win the cup this season.

In

1. After a hard-fought series, the Bears come out ahead in Game 7. How do we feel about the series? Sucks because we were so close and could have been in the final ourselves! 4. What do you want to improve in the offseason? Definitely my scoring and a defensive play to become better at both ends of the ice. 5. What are you most excited about for S70? We have a young team and everyone should get better which makes next season exciting.

Claim 1

@Banackock Thanks for the questions! What are your thoughts on your season? My player had a decent rookie season and had the most points of all rookies. Can't really complain! What are your thoughts on how your team is doing? New York made playoffs thanks to a strong second half, hopefully we can build off this! Who do you think wins MVP? I like Kallis Kriketers personally he had some great goalie stats this season. Who has been your teams best player? Boris the Forest really carried our offense this season! If you were to drop the gloves with any other VHLer, who would it be and why? don't be afraid to tag a bitch. @Kylrad, Easy win for me to assert my dominance physically since he always beats me in video games. Who makes it to the finals out of North America? Based on the regular season would have to go with Vancouver, but I think Seattle has a decent shot as well.
