Trazan 131 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 (edited) A Closer look at Houston Bulls Versus Mississauga Hounds Hello and welcome to this week’s around the VHLM. This week I'm going to focus on a first round playoff matchup that could see the winners take home the trophy. Whether it's the Houston Bulls led by their goal-scoring machine Legacy Gaming or the Misissauga Hounds with their puckmoving monster Big B These two teams are going hard at it and to see such a battle in the first round is joy to fans and experts alike. With the Bulls up 3-1 in games we’ll take a look at one player one each team i believe is crucial for their teams continued success Legacy Gaming (@Gamin Ringleader) Legacy is purely driven by offense as his numbers will show you. A pure goalscorer some say, A generational playmaker others howl. But the truth is probably somewhere in between. In the modern day of VHL and VHLM you can't be one dimensional, you gotta have a bunch of elite qualities if you wanna play with the best teams in the world. And let me tell you: Legacy is well on his way in his development. With 5 goals and 6 apples he combines for 11 points in just 4(!) games, Let me repeat that for you FOUR GAMES! I know what you are thinking “how hard can it be when you post up at the gr8-Position on PP1?” What if I tell you: Only 2 of his points have come on the powerplay! If the Bulls are gonna take home this series Legacy needs to stay red hot. With a 27+ shooting percentage that might not be the case,Even though we are talking about an elite shooter, It’s surely bound to drop down to a more sustainable level. But if he can keep it up he might become the most prolific scorer to ever suit up for the bulls. The Bulls are lucky to have him and would be miles away from the title without him. Big B (@BigB33) This Malmö Blackhawks draftee is a type of defender every team that wants to contend for a championship must have. Strong and firm yet he possesses that high end agility that more muscle oriented players so often lack. And just like Legacy, Big understands the game on another level. Big B will judge the situation correctly almost every time. No shot on the shin pads with this guy. I’m not saying that he’s a bad shooter but it's his passing who sticks out the most in his offensive toolbox. With 4 Assists in 4 games he leads the team in assists and is only second behind Hannibal Barca(5points) in total points. Maybe he lacks the points that legacy are putting up but boy, oh boy does he do some heavy lifting on the defensive side of the rink with 9 blocked shots and 15 hits. Since zero of his 4 points come on the powerplay that’s where he needs to find a way to be more involved. Mississauga hounds Powerplay has a nice 26 percent success rate and if The Hounds want to keep that number up Big B must be a bigger part of that. Personally I believe he will. Big is just to good to not figure it out. If he can produce more points on the powerplay he’s got a good chance to be the best defenceman in the whole VHLME and maybe one day VHL. I don’t know much about Malmö Redhawks as i am a reporter of the VHLM, but i know they have a bright future with up and coming Big B on the backend. Down 3-1 in this series The Hounds have a mountain to climb, Without Big B that would not be possible. But with him, Everything is possible.
