Markinson Quieting Becomes All-Time Playoff Points Leader

[STZ 5,339]

While the Moscow Menace fell short once again in the finals, there was quite a historic achievement that came about. Defenseman Hard Markinson became the VHL All-Time Playoff Points Leader for a defenseman. Marksinon broke Elijah Incognito's record of 90 points in 10 less games. Marksinon finished this post-season with an all-time total of 95 points. The heartbreak of the championship loss, made this achievement virtually silent from a VHL standpoint. In fact, Markinson's point totals weren't even on the "All-Encompassing Playoff Point Spreadsheet", which made the tracking of this record very under the radar.

 

Marksinon's S81 Playoff Run where he had 37 points in 17 games is a big reason for this large point total, but other than his first playoff run, he has been at least a point per game in every playoff run for Moscow. While increasing this total is a goal for Hard going forward, it should come naturally as he aims to achieve his ultimate goal of a VHL Championship. He will be expected to take on a larger role this year fater the Moscow Menace traded their star forward Duncan Idaho to the DC Dragons, as their cap situation was an issue with Papa Emeritus, Markinson and Seabasstard all making the league max-bracket.

Congrats again on the accomplishment Steez, it's been awesome having you and Hard play for Moscow all these seasons. You've been a huge part in why we've been able to make the deep playoff runs we did, and it's extremely appreciated
