The Chicago Phoenix: Burnt to ashes

Recommended Posts

When you see the Chicago Phoenix play today and you think that they're a couple of guys from a beer league team being thrown out onto the twice a night. In fact it might be an insult to the beer league team. They're not even trying and are out tanking the real life Arizona Coyotes.

 

But where did it all go wrong. Not to long ago they won the Continental Cup in S75 in only their 2nd season in the VHL. Well you could trace their futility right after the cup win. It made them think that they could go all year in and year out. Trading for aging entities like Julian Nousiainen and Kasper Kankkunen. This left them with very little draft picks to get impact prospects.

 

So there's still free agency you say? How about giving a lot of money to Spencer Elsby who retried in the middle of the season. As for everyone else

Austin Towbaker was a goal scoring machine for the Lynx LET'S GET HIM! (plays in the VHLE instead)

 

Pekka Grubauer is the backbone we need in net! (also goes to the VHLE) I guess he's just too good right now.

 

Alright.... how about the twig that is Sunrise, Freddy, aaaaaannnd.... a game board? Guess they really have gone mad.

 

They better hope to god that a board game will revive their franchise. Maybe then you can stop having auto generated players on your team.

 

Like a phoenix they had a blaze of glory. Now their ashes can be found in an urn.
