Isamu Knievel is one of the newest additions in the Victory Hockey League, currently in the VHLM playing for the Houston Bulls and potentially a draft selection for the VHL Season 85 draft. The story of Isamu is a lot deeper than one can imagine but currently, rides the wave of a happy ending and a new beginning. Isamu was born in Fukuoka, Japan a place not exactly known for hockey unlike a colder location such as Hokkaido but that did not stop Isamu. Clearly, the boy was not born with the last name Knievel as it's more of a stage name for him. During Isamu's high school days he really wanted to gain the acceptance of everyone there, which caused him to get their attention by doing dangerous stunts on the school premise. The more he did it, the more they began to see him and the more adrenaline he began to feel. His stunts would grow more and more to the point where he was getting into serious trouble for his radical behavior along with the serious injuries that came along with it. He picked up hockey as a way to gain adrenaline due to the fast pace action of the game. However, there was something about hockey that just hit a sweet spot with him. The hits... the fights... the atmosphere and hyper intensity a game can have. THIS was adrenaline. Hell he even lost one of his teeth fighting from a hockey game while in high school. 

Life would soon take a gigantic turn for Isamu, he would have complications with his family to the point where he had to live in his van. Which explains why he prefers to be known as Knievel instead of his family name. He would get into some trouble with some dangerous human beings but survive to tell the tale, in return... he would find his husband from this. Ironically when looking at the two, his husband looks like more of a hockey player than him. Regardless, time would span several years since Isamu's life truly changed. He went through some hard times, even went to jail at one point but when he came out, he wanted to go back to his adrenaline junkie days again. He wanted to be happy, he wanted to be alive, he wanted to live till he dies. Isamu got married, dusted off his old hockey stick and with a bit of practice and A L O T of determination. He would sign up for the VHL. 

Isamu would play currently 47 games in Houston, putting up 41 points and a solid 27 +/-. In the locker room, Isamu is incredibly loud and often seen as the hype man for the team. Screaming on the ice and off, giving his adrenaline to the team to get out there and win some games. That's what he wants, he wants to win. By any means necessary, even if it means a few sketchy hits, trash talk or fights, he lives for this. The junkie is seen with a broken smile on his face and adrenaline in his heart, he loves this game and he loves where he is right now. If a team were to draft him, they're getting a firecracker to deal with. Someone who dropped out of school, someone prone to doing stunts straight off of Jackass and someone who will fight until he dies on the ice. For his team, for the fans, for his husband, not for his parents... but for the adrenaline in his heart.

Also don't mic him up, he says some FOUL stuff on the ice.
