1. Currently, we are tied for first in the Eastern Conference. What has been the highlights for you so far?
  "There's a lot, actually. This being my inaugural season in the VHLM has been special, I've been enjoying that part, but I've enjoyed being apart of this team. I've really enjoyed finding my footing while everyone else is at the start of the season. That's probably been the highlight for me." 
 

2. Maple Dogwood @dogwoodmaple has been the driving force so far with 15 points in 12 games. What driven him to this hit start?
  "His talent, his love for the game, I'm not sure. I'm not him, so your guess is as good as mine." 
 

3. Who do you feel is going to be our biggest rivals this season?
  "Ottawa, probably. We don't have to worry about Miami, so I'd say Ottawa."  
 

4. What is your favourite non NHL team?
  "Coachella Valley Firebirds." 
 

5. What was the crazier sport event this month; NHL Trade Deadline, NHL Offseason Free Agency, or March Madness?
  "NHL Trade Deadline, I'd say." 
 

6. Where do you eat to celebrate something good or special?
  "There's this little restaurant called 'Broth House' in Halifax that's really good. I have to get the team out there one day." 

...What font did you use for the teams so I can steal them lmao

  

  

Thanks! Every part of this is hand-made. Here's a version with all the layers separated:

 

  My thing with the Halifax logo is that imo the colour theory would be off. To counteract this, the city you see in the breakdown is Halifax. It's also where Pier 21 is located, granted you can't see it in the finished image. 

  Also, with Sierra's signature, I took a lot of inspiration from Seattle Kraken's announcement of Vince Dunn agreeing to terms, and that includes his player signature (for like jerseys and pucks and stuff), and I thought that would be really cool for Sierra to do. 

  The font is called "Black Junkiest" btw

Answer 6 Questions for 2 Capped TPE

 

For week ending on March 24, 2024

 

1. The VHLM draft took place this past Saturday afternoon and Halifax drafted 10 players!  We also added Robin Sierra @ethanjaeda on waivers and traded for a goalie, Samuel Wazinski @samthemancub, in the offseason to compliment our 1 returning player John Season @dylanjj37.  What are your thoughts on the roster going into Season 93?  And is there one player that you're looking forward to being teammates with?

 

2. The VHLM awards also happened this past weekend, and while none of our players claimed any hardware, we did have at least one nominee from last season.  Obviously we want to win the Founder's Cup, but besides that trophy, is there any other that you would really like to win?

 

3. Okay, simple question, what is the most embarrassing song that you listen to regularly? And no cheating, let's have the truth!

 

4. What are your hopes and expectations for this VHLM season?  Do you have one goal in mind that you'd like to achieve either in the sims, forums, or discord?

 

5. Getting ready for the season, everyone is training hard...I hope!  Does your player have a weakness that you think needs some extra attention?

 

6. Do you think the Halifax 21st have what it takes to win the Founder's Cup in Season 93?

 

 

 

 

1. What are your thoughts on the roster going into Season 93?  And is there one player that you're looking forward to being teammates with?
  "...Probably Wazinski, Season, Simard, and Novotny off the top of my head." 
 

2. The VHLM awards also happened this past weekend, and while none of our players claimed any hardware, we did have at least one nominee from last season.  Obviously we want to win the Founder's Cup, but besides that trophy, is there any other that you would really like to win?
  "I'm just happy to play the game." 

3. Okay, simple question, what is the most embarrassing song that you listen to regularly? And no cheating, let's have the truth!
  "Anything by Glorb. I try to resist but I fear I can't." 

4. What are your hopes and expectations for this VHLM season?  Do you have one goal in mind that you'd like to achieve either in the sims, forums, or discord?
  "...Not end up a UFA. I'm sure my agent would agree with me." 
 

5. Getting ready for the season, everyone is training hard...I hope!  Does your player have a weakness that you think needs some extra attention?
   "I don't think a press conference is really the place to theorise where someone is failing because that doesn't do anything besides draw more attention to the issue and pressure them to do better." 

6. Do you think the Halifax 21st have what it takes to win the Founder's Cup in Season 93?
  "We have the passion behind us, so I'm hopeful we've got what it takes to not only make it to playoffs but for one of my team members to hoist the cup this season." 

 

I made this in inkscape. idk what else to put.

Halifax 21st Press Conference

 

Answer 3 Questions for 1 Capped TPE

Answer 6 Questions for 2 Capped TPE

 

For Week Ending on March 10, 2024

 

1. How do you feel about your new GM @LucyXpher?
     "I feel hopeful, uh..she seems nice, in every interaction we've had she's been helpful, and unlike others isn't afraid of the fact that I'm a newer player. I'm excited, I feel that I could do a lot on this team and with this current group. I feel good, is what I'm trying to say."
    
2. With all the picks your team has in the upcoming VHLM Draft, what do you feel is the biggest position of need on the team?
     "I feel like I'm...far, far too new to be answering that question. We need players in empty positions, and I have trust in management that they're able to make the best decisions regarding that."  
    
3. With all the new GMs in the VHLM coming in, who do you think is best set up to succeed in the future?
     "Those who are passionate about the game. Those who love the game, those who...have that fire for the game inside of them. I don't think being new has anything to do with it--sure experience can help, but everyone starts out shaky on ice skates. We have to let them make those mistakes without any extra stress of...like, being the 'new' guy. We cannot have good GMs or good players without them being new." 
    
4. How are you spending your offseason time?
     "I read. Stay fit. I hate on the hawks. I play D&D, uh...other TTRPGs like that. So. I nerd out, essentially. I 3d model, too." 
   
5. What pet would you own if it were allowed?
   
     "...Probably an Axolotl? I think you can own those in Ontario but I don't trust myself with one." 
    
6. If you had a time machine, where would you go?
     "...2050. See what happens."
