1. I think an upgrade of any position, minus the goalie, would help us. But the price might be steep for an upgrade 2. Yes I will. I have been excited for it 3. Since my player is a mongolian.. 4. By color. Every single time. 5. In Assists would be cool. But he should lay off the penalties 6. Spoon. Meat can be handled with your fingers but soup is hard to eat with a fork or fingers

The VHL trade deadline is a thrilling time for hockey fans and teams alike. As the season progresses, teams evaluate their rosters and make strategic moves to boost their chances of making a deep playoff run. The trade deadline is an important period where general managers work tirelessly to identify and acquire players who can make an immediate impact or for teams out of the playoff run, to try and sell high and accumulate prospects or draft picks to build for the future. Excitement builds as rumors circulate about potential trades and everybody eagerly await announcements that could change the fate of their respective teams. The trades made during this period can be real game changers, providing teams with the missing pieces needed to push through the playoffs and contend for the championship. For players the trade deadline can be a time of uncertainty but also opportunity. Being traded to a new team can reignite a player's career or for veteran players, offer them one last chance at the championship. North American Conference: Vancouver Wolves When you look at the team, they are well built. Currently first in the conference, they have a great forward core, two decent defensemen and an amazing goalie. They definitely seem like the team to beat in this conference, but they might be facing a bit of a weakness in defensive depth and they could be expected to actively seek reinforcements at the trade deadline. Although they have a strong team to start, strengthening their defensive core could be key for their playoffs. Calgary Wranglers Similar to the Wolves, they have shown some vulnerability on their defensive core. They are siting in second place in the North American conference. They have a strong forward core and a goalie who’s been playing good for them. Addressing their defensive weaknesses at the trade deadline could be crucial for a stronger playoff push. European Conference: Malmo Nighthawks Malmo seems like the team to beat in the European conference. They are built well and have a strong forward core, one strong defenseman(defense-woman) and good goalie. Like Calgary and Vancouver, they are experiencing a bit of a weakness in their defensive depth. Bolstering their defense core at the trade deadline could be really help for a solid playoff push. Moscow Menace Moscow, unlike the other mentioned teams, are strongly built front and back. They have a strong forward core and defensive core. Where they have shown some vulnerability is in between the pipes. Not that their goalie isn’t good but more so, not as good as other teams in the mix. Addressing their goaltending weakness at the trade deadline could be very crucial for them if they want a stronger playoff push. Overall, the VHL trade deadline is a high stakes, high energy period that showcases the strategic depth of hockey management and the relentless pursuit of success by teams and players alike. As the trade deadline excitement builds up, teams brace for the final stretch of the season. Newly acquired players could bring a sense of hope and anticipation. With newly bolstered rosters, the playoff race intensifies, promising thrilling hockey action ahead. 520words PT Jan 20 to 26

I feel that the first three teams of the conferences should have their ticket to the playoffs and that everyone can agree on. But for the wildcard format, I think following the NHL model for divisions where other teams, after the first 3 spots, who has the most points should proceed to the playoffs. At times I can see that it would seem fair to just keep it as it is, but there are times where it is totally unfair for teams playing in a strong conference and outperforming most of the wildcard positions in the other conference, but yet fail to make the playoffs to an inferior team. And I say that thinking about situations where there's a noticeable difference in points. I wouldn't mind as much if the difference in point was minute.

1. I'm positive we are just unlucky. Every shot is an added chance of scoring. We just have to keep shooting and eventually, things will go our way. 2. I can't really answer that. I don't follow much football I used to follow more, especially when I had a newspaper everyday because It was there and I'd read pretty much all the sports section. Now we get scrap newpaper and it’s way too expensive. 3. I think it's a good idea. It would be similar to divisions in the NHL where each top 3 of the division goes , then the rest fight for a wildcard 4. Either of them would be good right about now lol but I'd go original and I prefer the flats. Easy deboning and easy to dip 5. Since I am a forward right now, I'd go towards defense or goalie 6. I should have seen those movies... but I haven't

Dorji Khan, an emerging young player of the Toronto Legion, has been putting in the work this season. After an intense offseason training, the Mongolian Stallion has returned in peak condition, ready to play. His dedication and hard work are evident in his stats: 8 goals and 8 assists in just 20 games. Known for his physical presence, Khan has managed to strike a perfect balance between aggression and discipline, accumulating only 12 hits and 4 penalty minutes. His contributions have been consistent and his +/- rating of +10 showing he is responsible defensively as well. In this exclusive interview, Khan shares insights into his preparation, his journey and his aspirations for the season. Reporter: Dorji, it’s great to have you back! You’ve been in superb form this season. Can you tell us a bit about your preparation before the season started? Dorji: Thanks, it’s always a pleasure to be here. This offseason, I really focused on getting into the best shape possible. After returning from my Christmas in Mongolia, I dedicated a lot of time to my fitness, working out intensely to make sure I could contribute to the team effectively. It's always about pushing myself to new limits and being ready for the demands of the season. Reporter: It certainly seems like your hard work has paid off. You’ve already scored 8 goals and provided 8 assists in just 20 games. What’s been the key to your success on the ice? Dorji: I think it’s a combination of factors. Number 1 I would say my teammates have played a key part in how I am performing so far. They are incredible and we’ve been working really well together. Everyone on our team is putting in the work. And 2 I would say the intense training in the offseason has helped me improve my strength and endurance which is crucial for staying competitive throughout the game but also try to hone in on new skills. Reporter: Despite your physical presence, you’ve managed to stay very disciplined, with only 12 hits and 4 penalty minutes. How do you strike that balance? Dorji: It’s all about playing smart hockey. I believe in being aggressive but also understanding the game situation. You don’t want to put your team at a disadvantage by taking unnecessary penalties. It’s important to be physical but within the rules and that’s something I’ve tried to work on. My physicality really shows when battling for the puck behind the net or in the corners and when I am in front of the goalie attempting to screen. I always try to stay heavy on my skates with strong strides to push defenders back and give space for my teammates. Reporter: Your +/- rating of +10 is very impressive. How important is this stat to you? Dorji: I take pride in being a two-way player and helping the team in every aspect of the game. It’s not just about scoring goals but also making sure you’re defensively responsible. Last season was my first in the negatives. In my last season in the VHLM I was +63, my season in the VHLE I was +28. I definitely put more focus on improving this season. Reporter: As the season progresses, what are your goals and expectations for yourself and the team? Dorji: For myself, I want to keep improving and be the best player I can be. I will do anything it takes to help this team. For the team, the goal is always to win. We have a great group this season. I feel like this season, we need to make a big push because we are losing valuable players next season who are stepping into retirement and hopefully give them one last chance at a championship. Reporter: Thank you for your time, Dorji. We’re excited to see what the rest of the season holds for you and the Toronto Legion. Dorji: I really do thank you for having me. I’m looking forward to it as well. 666words PT week Jan 6 to 12

How to train your dragon

Dorji Khan will be working on Faceoffs to fill the hole if needed at center next season

Gave us a chance atleast!

You'll get that goal but still stacking assists

1. It’s too early to say honestly. As long as we keep on shooting, the puck will eventually go in. 2. A snack? I would have to go with turtles.
