Since there are no games anymore in any of the VHL leagues at the moment, we have a look at the Janser's inter-season schedule.

 

Marcel will undergo extensive training in the Calgary torture chamber and revamp his offensive skills, which are elemental in the big show for any player since the new rules were implemented, giving the goalkeepers an edge. He spent some off-time on Lake Ontario fishing with his father and brother.

 

It is during his stay where he answered a phone call on his brother's cell phone. It rang while Dan and the old man were on the lake, and neither of them take electronic devices aboard, Firstly they are disruptive to the serious fishing which needs done and secondly it is too risky to have them falling over board and getting destroyed.

 

Marcel took the call and simply answered with 'Janser', which is what people do in Switzerland, if an unknown number is calling. The person at the other end of course was assuming to talk to Dan, and started off telling Marcel that he was elected to represent Team Western Europe in the upcoming S84 Worldcup. Marcel laughed out and said: 'You are talking to Marcel, not Daniel. He is not available at the moment, but I have him call you back as soon as he is back.'

Hours later, when the Jansers were eating freshly caught trout, the younger brother said: 'Ah, by the way Dan, there was a fellow by the name of @v.2  who wanted to chat with you about your participation in the World Cup. I told him to sod off, and that it was a poor joke to start with.' Dan let go of the cutlery and glared at Marcel: 'You didn't!' Marcel grinned: 'No I did not. But you may want to call them back, before they come to their senses and nominate someone else.'

Dan took leave from the dinner table and called v.2 immediately back and confirmed his attendance and also mentioning that he needs to sack the secretary. When he came back, he smacked Marcel in the back of the head. 'That is for telling me so late and giving me a jumpstart.' Kurt burst out laughing and Marcel joined in seconds later. The Swiss defender was embarassed and still rubbing his head mumbled: 'I got so excited about the haul you brought in, that I completely forgot. I am sorry, Dan.' 

 

Still excited about this unexpected news, the three of them went to a sports bar nearby to watch the S85 VHL Draft on the telly. They were surprised that Calgary traded up, to get the third overall pick to secure the rights on up and coming defenseman Phil Strasmore, who will join the Wranglers' roster as soon as the coming season. 'Good choice, that.' Kurt commented. 'Had this kid for a dozen games in Mississauga in S83 and five post season games. Solid defender with a lot of potential and his production is no slouch either. And physical, but all players going through the Phil Knight Agency are.'

 

The rest of the Calgary draftees were unfamiliar to the Jansers and we will see how they will fit into the Calgary prospect pool.

 

Here is a list of the players who will be fed into the Wranglers' system:

 

3rd Overall: Phil Strasmore, UK, Houston Bulls

14th Overall: Larry Abass Jr., CAN, Las Vegas Aces

49th Overall: Ty Justice, CAN, Philadelphia Reapers

 

Congrats and welcome to the Wranglers.
