1. Still stuck in 5th in the league, how are you feeling about the season right now? Well being in 5th place may not be ideal but it's all about the journey isn't it I'm feeling optimistic about the season we got plenty of time to turn things around and climb up those rankings with hard work teamwork

2. All of our stats are about middle of the pack in the league, what should we prioritize i Well when it comes to prioritizing our stats it's important to focus on areas where we can make the biggest impact let's analyze our strengths and weaknesses identify areas for improvement and work on them together as a team whether it's tightening up our defense sharpening up our offense or improving our special teams will put in the effort to elevate our game remember Teamwork Makes the Dream Work and together we can rise above the pack

3. Matthew McCagg has taken the most shots against in the league, how can we help him out? To help me out we can focus on tightening up our defense providing me with a solid support let's communicate effectively on the ice clear the shooting lanes and block those shots like Champions additionally we can work on limiting turnovers and controlling the puck possession to relieve some of the pressure off me

4. What do you think the most significant part of the season has been so far? The most significant part of the season so far has been the bond we formed as a team through all the ups and downs victories and challenges We've Come Together the support and camaraderie and friendship we built I would make the season truly special it's not just about the winds and losses but the memories recreate and the growth we experience together so let's cherish this journey and continue to make Unforgettable moments on and off the ice

5. What are your plans for after this season? After season if we win that glorious cup I'll be over the moon with joy as for my plans I might spread my wings take on new adventures the vhl sounds absolutely thrilling and I'd love to explore that realm of competition ahead no matter what path I choose I'll always carry the memories and love for our team in my heart so let's make the most of the season and create a legacy worth remembering

 

6. What are your thoughts on the NHL's free agency? NHL free agency a whirlwind of excitement that anticipation it's like a treasure Trove of possibilities where players can find new homes and teens can strengthen their rosters I find it fascinating to see some of the chess games of negotiations and the buzz of speculation surrounding the potential signings it's a time when dreams are realized in new chapters begin so I'm always eager to see which players make moves and how it shapes the landscape of the league let the free agency frenzy begin

5. Build a strong close team and fight as hard as we can and hopefully come out with the championship!

I think it means more meaningful games all the time, not being able to slip or we lose the chance to compete later in the season.

I’m hoping to build a more defensive side to my player and keep pucks out more often.

Being able to continue growing and work with new teammates we acquired this draft

A goalie upgrade or some more defensive builds.

Hopefully getting into that top three in the division

6. Who do you think will win the Cup in the VHLE this season? Why?

 

1. I feel good, still early enough to bounce back and figure our stuff out. no rush for greatness!

2. Goal scoring, I feel like in some games we totally get outscored badly and the games we win are usually tight close games

3. Not really, but results come with time and now we are just waiting.

4. Hell yeah, having a strong defensive core is amazing, and having dmen that will score the puck is awesome!

5.  Train to be the best lol

6. I hope we win, I think we will and can. I think we have all the pieces to win and we will just get better as the season goes on. Let's go Rome!! 

[McLean Hoover 10]

1. I feel like we could’ve done better starting but things have turned around quick for us and we’re sitting with a winning record. 
 

2. penalties are easily our worst enemy with our team taking easily the most in the league.

 

3.I am content because I have a positive record. 
 

4. if they can keep it up of course that’s huge for us a team to have a stacked D core.

 

5. usually workouts and relaxation consists of video games and hiking.

 

6. I think we have a great chance to win personally we have a good group of guys. Anyone within that top 4 are good too.

1. I feel amazing, the team is clicking and the chemistry is rising!! watch out, league!!

2. Players updating and the fact that we are not afraid to try new lines and do new things makes it hard to beat a constantly different team and still compete.

3. I think we can, We are a team that has a mix of young guys and vets and we are a team that is getting better and better every day.

4 THE GOALIEEEE! he has been insane. 

5. Wish it was a little bit more active, but its hard because of the league.

6. continue doing the good work boys.

1. Feeling great, I’m starting to produce and the team is clicking it’s great!

2. Amazing to be honest, we came in expect to be middle of the pack and we are higher than that so.

3. I think maybe players not updating if anything 

4. Silly Vasteras or however it’s spelt lol

5. all depends on what my gms want, I’m good for either. 
6. telepathy for sure, would never have to worry about the answer to a question lol

[GioSivo 167]

3. Will Pope Francis end the season as the best defenseman in the VHLE?

4. What are your thoughts on our recent trade?

5. What are your expectations if we make the playoffs?

 

6. Do you enjoy the song "September" by Earth, Wind & Fire?

[McLean Hoover 10]

1. I feel like we a solid team going into the playoff season. 
 

2. I think it comes down to a couple of points difference either for or against us it’s a toss up.

 

3. I believe he certainly does and is the best d man we got.

 

4. picking up max players makes us even more of a threat to teams hopes of winning.

 

5. never expect anything, I’d like to make it deep into the playoffs and obviously win.

 

6. I actually never heard of the song until I read it, gave it a listen and pretty good to be honest.

1. Great, I’m clicking, we are clicking it’s on like donkey Kong brotha!

2. Of course, we have beaten them with our back up, we have beaten them with our starter, we have proved we can beat them anytime anywhere 

3. Pope Francis is a certified beauty, best defensemen easily and will do great things further in career. 
4. i love it, makes us stronger and active in locker room! Happy to welcome the new players!

5. Well I’d like to win, doesn’t matter if we sweep or go to 7 i just want to do our best to win and if it’s our year, it’s our year. 
6. I’ll check it out and let you know.

3. Who do you think we'll face first if we make the playoffs?

4. NHL is starting up again, any way too early guesses to who wins the cup?

5. On behalf of Baby Boomer... how can we stop losing to Oslo?

 

6. What's your favorite piece of media? (i.e book, movie, etc..)

[McLean Hoover 10]

I’m very happy at the start of the season our team didn’t have a great start, we were worried our all in approach was going to be a failure. Looking at it now we are one of the favourites to take this and we plan to push that moving forward.

 

personally I would’ve liked to see more progress for my career as a player but everything is improved just not as immensely as I had hoped

 

im hoping we take vasteras in the playoffs 

 

truthfully, I think Vegas, Colorado or Tampa has the best shots at adding another one they are all past champions in the last 5 years and haven’t lost the ability to win imo

as far as maybe unexpected maybe Dallas?

 

im unsure how to stop that I think we just need to shake things up if we find ourselves in a rut 

 

probably movies or video games tbh, easier to digest and I’ve always felt they tell better stories to books but that’s for me.
