Toronto Legion S88 Preview

 

After finishing 15^th in the VHL in S87, this season doesn’t look to bring much more than hope to Legion fans. Knowing that the rebuild would continue, Toronto traded some veterans and let some find other homes in free agency. There was also the unexpected retirement of defenseman Babushka @BrutalBoost. Since they had been holding a few extra players on the roster anyway, the Legion didn’t sign anyone on the market, instead filling the vacant roster spots with prized rookies Jimi Jaks @kelvi and Alex Bridges III @Oatex at forward and newly acquired Tater Tottingham @Trunkxolotl on the backend.

 

The rest of the team is the same as last year with veteran Kyle Peace @Peace looking to climb up the Legion all-time stats lists in his final season and S87 1^st overall pick Mac Altas @v.2  aiming to improve on his solid rookie year. Dens Oden @Snussu and CDS Leb @CDS_Leb provide essential secondary scoring and grit.

 

On the blueline, Quinn Clark @axtron will quarterback the powerplay after leading all S87 rookies with 10 power play goals. Veteran returnees Cadmael Ixazaluoh @Vice and Harry Hagel @jasplunds will provide a physical presence while chipping in offensively.

 

The goaltending duo also remains the same from last season with sophomores Joel Castle @animal74 and DJ Fire Dragon @Firekiss set to stop as many pucks as possible.

 

The pre-season predictions haven’t looked favorably on this season’s editon of the Toronto Legion, but Nils Godlander's @Moon team is hyped for the new season and ready to prove the doubters wrong!
