Laine 1,361 Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 (edited) The Miami Marlins, fresh off a Founder's Cup Championship in S89 have been looking to stock the cupboards with some young, fresh talent as the team gears up to push for back-to-back championships, which would make them the first team since the S83-84 Las Vegas Aces to accomplish that feat. With the season just around the corner, Marlins GM @Arce hopes to have found his two missing pieces in a massively talented, off the radar family. First, The Marlins picked up RW Dietrich Reingaard from the undrafted market. The hulking 6' 7" is a force to be reckoned with on any line. His up and down punishing style of play will have you feeling it both on the ice, and on the scoresheet. The 16 year old phenom signed with the Marlins earlier this week and put the Marlins right back into the Cup conversation, with Reingaard expected to have a huge season. However, the Marlins pulled off a move that put the entire VHLM on notice. You see, the Reingaards have a long history of hockey lineage. Deitrich is just the youngest of FOUR Reingaard brothers who are all involved in hockey. Third in line is Lief Reingaard, a stout two-way defenseman who also plays on the Marlins, and helped lure Deitrich to North America. He's the smallest of the Reingaard brothers by a large margin, standing only 5' 9" and weighing 165 pounds, but hits like a wrecking ball and isn't afraid to use his body to both punish his opponents and block shots. His slapshot is one of the deadliest in the VHLM and he's projecting as a 1st round talent in the S91 VHL Draft. Second in line is Thor Reingaard, probably the most notable of the four brothers. Thor combines size and scoring into one deadly package. He's known for his tenacity down low in corners and can bruise through the middle on the rush. He wins faceoffs with ease and can easily beat you with his slapshot and wrist shot. He is easily in the conversation to go 1st overall in the S91 VHL Draft, and has already made the jump to the VHLE in hopes of competing with the Vasteras Iron Eagles. We all known about these three, but aren't we forgetting one? The old of the Reingaard brothers is an interesting proposition The oldest of the Reingaard brothers is Aanarsi Reingaard. This hulking 6' 5" RW is the newest San Diego Marlin. He was a phenom growing up alongside his brothers, as the four together ripped through every Greenland hockey league and even some Major Junior leagues in Europe. Aanarsi's combination of size, strength, speed, and scoring is unlike any other prospect coming out of Greenland. He has an incredible one-timed release, frequently fed on the power play by his brothers. His 6' 5" frame and immense strength allow him to go into the corners and grind for loose pucks. When he's not fighting for pucks, he's looking for open space on the ice or backchecking like crazy. He loves to get in shooting lanes and can retrieve the puck and thrive on the rush with his speed and hands. If you give him even a split second of space by himself in the offensive zone with his brothers on the ice, odds are the puck will end up in the back of your net. San Diego has undeniably become a Founder's Cup Favourite with this signing. The reunification of the Aanarsi and Deitrich on a line together and Lief running the blue line will be a force that's hard to stop with the chemistry between those three. Not to mention the rest of the roster already rounding into peak form. We'll have to wait and see, but San Diego looks poised for a shot at the elusive back-to-back.
