Spartan 4,377 Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 Well hello, it's me again. Usually I'd scale down the giant grumpy Menace man but I'm doing this on my phone so you get the giant face today. It's always a thrill to announce our leadership group, especially after a season when some of our team leaders stepped up their game to a new level and won multiple VHL awards. @BOOM snapped out of his award drought and collected the top Offensive and Overall defenseman awards. Team AGM @Brandon secured the Goal Leader and Most Improved awards. And our captain @Arce locked down the Points Leader and Most Outstanding Player award. We're extremely proud of our leaders, and look forward to seeing what this next season's leaders can accomplish on the ice. First Alternate - Hammar Voss - @BOOM Three seasons with the "A" was all Voss needed to secure his recognition, so he's certainly earned his fourth consecutive season. The votes in S87 were close, and Voss fell just short of some covered hardware. In S88, the superstar eliminated any doubt that he is the best defenseman in the VHL. His constant desire to exceed and be a fantastic LR member makes our team a better place for competition and good times. We're very excited to have Voss finish out his career here in Moscow and hope to make this season the best one yet. Second Alternate - Tomas Sogaard - @Brandon Typically I decline to name the team's AGM as a formal member of leadership group, but after a tremendous individual season and a lot of roster turnover this offseason, it's simply a no-brainer to have the currently longest tenured Moscow player be named as an alternate captain. Since he was drafted in S83, Sogaard has been a flexible player who complements anyone on the team. His leadership and experience is extremely appreciated. Captain - Ronan Lavelle - @Arce I truly wonder how many players have been named as captain on different VHL teams. A former captain for D.C.'s cup run a few seasons ago, Lavelle is simply the best choice to be our captain this season. His energy is infectious and he's one of the most vocal leaders on the team. After a massive MOP and Points Leader season in S88, Arce still only talks about getting Moscow that elusive Continental Cup. We're very fortunate to have him on our team, and I'm looking forward to the season ahead! Congrats to all named to the leadership team!

Arce 755 Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 It’s an honor to serve as the Moscow captain this season! We have a great roster, it’s been easy to get excited and difficult not to be so vocal. Here’s to breaking the Moscow curse!
