1. Is you player going to be in contention for any awards this season?

2. Today is the 4th of July in the US. Does your player celebrate? How?

3. Of all the players your agency has represented, which has been your favorite?

 

1) Hoping to be in the mix for most goals in the VHLM (Alexander Chershenko Trophy), but I've got ground to make up.

 

2) Being a Canadian player playing for a Canadian team, my big celebration day was on Saturday. Gotta cook some food on the bbq and relax for the holiday before getting back to the grind.

 

3) This is my first player, so I'll have to take Harry Callahan by default. Only in my second season, so I'm looking forward to a long career ahead!

 

-----------------------------------------------------------

1) If you had a time machine, what concert would you like to go back and see? (Band only is okay, or if you have a specific choice of band and year even better)

 

2) Has your team played as well this season as you had hoped now that we're roughly at the halfway mark? Do you like your chances at a playoff spot?

 

3) Are you watching (or re-watching) a particular tv show currently? If so, what is it, and would you recommend it to others?

1. Foo Fighters at Wembley for me.  

 

2. Team has been about what I expected but we've been better of late so hopefully we will see it keep up.

 

3. Currently finishing Manifest and watching through Virgin River with the wife.  I'd probably recommend both though Manifest is incredibly cringe.  I love the cringe but is what it is.

1. You can blow up one Fast Food Company from this planet with the hands of whatever God you believe in.  Which one is it?

 

2. If you are being approached by your greatest enemy that is threatening yours and your entire team's lives, and you have the ability to destroy them but have to sacrifice multiple members of your team that are currently captured by them.  Are you taking that shot and why?

 

3. Greatest memory as a member in this league?

1. Goodbye Arby's. I wish I could say I had fond memories of you but I do not. I will always have a disdain for you. It is time for you to finally meet the end that you deserve. There are no words that describe how much hatred I have buried deep within me. It is like eating shame. The way shame feels is how your food tastes. Now, I finally get to exact revenge on behalf of every human being that has tasted the shameful food. Good riddance, you disgusting, loathsome restaurant.

 

2. I'm not taking that shot. What's the point of trying to save people if we're going to kill people we are trying to save?

 

3. Easily winning the Championship with my player Petrenko and with the SEATTLE BEARS!

I think that gold and white should be used on more jerseys.

 

They would probably be a soccer player because they are from Brazil and they would pay soccer a lot there.

 

I think that Elias Peterson is underrated because ge is always overlooked by social media.

Q1) What is your least favourite number?

[scoop 3,271]

I don't particularly like the number 1.

 

Q2) When do you think the world will end?

I have no clue. A long time from now.

The time between work and sleep.

3. Thoughts on how the deadline went down/is going down?

1) I'm disappointed, both in the individual performance department, and how the season is going for the team. I haven't been able to produce nearly as much as I was hoping to this season relative to my first season. On the team side, I was hoping to be in the mix in the middle of the pack, maybe with home ice in the first round. Instead, we're holding the last spot very tightly and the gap is closing, so we've gotta hope for some improved play.

 

2) I'll say sure, all droughts end at some point, no time like the present to do so.

 

3) It was much quieter than I was expecting it to be in the VHLM. There was only 1 trade made on deadline day in the M, which I figured was surprising being the last chance to load up for the playoffs or add future assets.

1) I would say I'm a cat person. Dogs are great and all but I'm a bit more down to be chill with a cat. Plus when they finally warm up to you, they're super cute.

2) I would rather be only able to talk to people on a T.V. Better sound quality and also I have an excuse to be lazy and stay in one place.

3) The craziest thing actually happened a while ago. I was on the TopView Tour Bus that T-boned the MTA bus in New York City.

 

1) What kind of VHL merchandise would you be interested in buying?

2) You score in overtime! How would your player most likely have scored the goal? (E.g. a booming slapshot, a slick redirection/mid-air tip-in, a well placed snipe over the goalie's shoulder)

3) Building on the idea of the Theme Week this season, if you had to change the name of the VHL what would you change it to?

1. I’m not interested in any merchandise. 

 

2. Since we have fake attributes that mean nothing - I’ll answer the question based on that. my player has nothing invested in either “shot.” So he would score by using some intelligent positioning and great vision to deflect the puck.

 

3. Victory hockey league is kinda a weird name… but I’d keep it the same.

1. How is the season going for your team? Is it going as expected?

[Velevra 295]

1. How is the season going for your team? Is it going as expected?
The season is going great! I had the privilege of joining the Reapers who are the top dogs in the VHLM. Hopefully the success carries over to the playoffs.
 

2. What is the biggest surprise for you this season?

I just returned at the trade deadline so not really sure about what expectations were at the start of the season. I think overall I was surprised how much fuller VHLM teams are now than they were in the past though.
 

3. What is your player’s go to celebration?
On the ice just a simple fist pump. Off the ice an nice sushi dinner!

1. Are you looking forward to the playoffs? If not, how about the off-season?

Oh yes, Ottawa is bit of an underdog, but it will be a great event, we had a lot of tight games in the regular season, shootouts have not been our friend, but I like our odds.

2. Anything exciting so far about the summer?

Same old same old, I saw two baby seagulls on the ground, I guess they were waiting for their mother.

3. Who do you think should be the MVP of the league you are in?

Brad Marchand perhaps, the most goals and points.

Hmm hard to decide on just one but maybe Mass Effect 2?
 

Q2 - Do you care who wins the VHL championship this year?
I haven't followed the big leagues much since I joined but perhaps the Vancouver Wolves due to Frank and some old player connections.
 

Q3 - Does your team have an on-site locker room?
I don't believe so since I was only shared a discord link but I could be wrong.

3. What sort of music do you listen to in order to get you pumped for a big game?
 

1. In the VHLM, it's been pretty good this season. There are teams that have been excellent, teams that have been alright, and teams that have fallen off a bit, but we haven't seen anything outrageous like a team that wins or loses almost every single game.

 

2. If I had to choose between the two, I'd go with high draft pick with expectations. I'd like to help be responsible for making a difference with a team, and that comes with being a higher pick.

 

3. Depends on the day, but I'll go with either classic rock (give me an AC/DC playlist, or some hair metal), or punk rock (anything on the louder end for Rise Against, especially early material).

2. SSK didn’t make the playoffs. I’ve turned off my “Paying attention to the VHLM” switch.

3. Usually late night after I get off work.

3. Artyomov takes the metro. Big train guy.

D.C. has one of the best ones for me. Colours are sharp, and the design is both solid and concise. It could have gone off boards real quick, considering the details and the size on a dragon, plus there's the text in there. But overall it's looking clean.

 

I love the colours of Warsaw. I love the minimalistic designs of New York and Los Angeles.

 

The worst right have to be Chicago and Seattle. The bird just looks disjointed on Chicago's, the wings look like they start at the wrong place, and they're not wide enough. Seattle is brown on brown. The shield's shape is bad, the text is bad, most of the bear is bad. The logo could be one of the better ones if it was only the bear head.

2. The VHL wants to expand to Asia for the first time. Where do you put the team and why there?

Are we talking one Asian team in one of the actual leagues, or are we talking a full VHLA? Either way, there has to be a team in Japan, as probably the only Asian country with somewhat of a history when it comes to the international hockey scene. Along with Kazakhstan and Russia if you wanna count them as Asian for the sake of this discussion. Osaka Samurais could be the name.

3. If you had to bring one video game mechanic to real life, what would it be?

Quick saving, and loading past saves. I wanna be able to test some things out instead of having to commit fully to stuff and realize halfway through that it was a bad idea.

Answer

1. I don't have much attachment to the Rush (or Yukon for that matter) but the Hounds branding is ugly enough that I'd support replacing them with the Rush.

2. It's cool to be from Greenland but nobody cares about poor Malta.

3. SONNET. With Triller also leaving we need the Houston Bulls graphics to stay in peak form.

[Velevra 295]

Ask

1. The VHLE teams contracted were decided based on branding and team history - was this the right decision or should current roster situation have taken precedent?
I imagine any decision would have been a tough one and it's hard to please everyone. I might have split the difference and done 1 of the swedish teams with a worse roster and then 1 of the newer teams as well.
 

2. What is one area of the league that you believe is pretty much perfect and cannot be improved upon?
Things could probably always be iterated and improved on but I really loved the change of trivia being incorporated / automated in the portal. Kudos to the team who implemented that.
 

3. Who are two members of the BOG or admin team that could be alts?

Uh I honestly don't know. I see Nykonox is now on the BOG apparently so maybe he has a sneaky alt as someone

D.C. is probably my favourite logo in the league. The colours are good, the design is sharp, even with the space wasted to write the name of the team. We know it's a dragon, you don't have to write it. It's good anyway. I also really like Warsaw, and some of the simplistic ones like New York, Los Angeles.

3. What are your player's go to toppings on a pizza?

She'd probably like anchovies and pineapple. Together. My whole backstory for her at the moment is that she's probably somewhere between a human and a moth, or a bunch of moths disguised as a human, or just a moth loving girl. Regardless of that, she's a weirdo, rarely talks, awkward socially, it just feels right that you'd find her in the team lodgings, eating a pizza with no sauce, no pepperoni, no cheese, only anchovies and pineapple.
