Brampton Blades Gearing Up

[AIM-11 134]

As the next VHLM season begins to rub the offseason sleep out of its eyes, the beast that is the Brampton Blades hockey club is starting to also arise.  GM Tfong had relatively little work with at the draft and the Blades are not exactly filled with all star prospects at this point in time.  However, they do boast a few solid players.

 

First, right winger Mikko Koskinen.  Koskinen played for the Blades last season  and the rookie posted 11 points in 31 games, but also boasted a strong +25 on the season.  Koskinen is emerging as a strong scorer and skater and will be doing some serious hefth lifitng for the team this season.

 

Taking the spot as robotic pivot on the team's second line will be AIM-11 - who will be hoping to have a strong full season with the team as he continues to work on his own skating as well as training hard to become a top faceoff man in the league.

 

 

A trio of later round draft picks are also going to be pushing for some minutes on as the team as Goaltender Kristers Duagavins, winger Yannik Zug and defenseman Jack Harkness, are all just starting their training and the jury is out as to their future in the league.

 

Fan of the Blades know that this year is mostly a development year and expectations are low.  GM Tfong is hoping to develop a strong work ethic among his players and graduate several of them to the big leagues in the future.  If the team can get extraordinarily lucky and make the playoffs then that is simply a bonus!
