Vasteras has conquered the first step on their way to the first Renaissance Cup since the inaugural season of the VHLE back in S80. There were some household names in that squad: Booberry, Lindbergh, Vidot, Nano, Peace and Sakukoivu. Time to bring the cup back to Vasteras.

 

It was the expected hard fought battle between the two Swedish teams, with the better end for the Iron Eagles.

 

Now they will have to face a very convincing Cologne squad who seem to play their best hockey when it counts. Most remarkable of all is that in their sweep against the Gladiators, Clark only allowed one goal per match. Janser's team will have to get creative to score enough goals to defeat the German outfit. In the last four seasons, the Rhine dwellers were champions three times and look at a threepeat this season.

 

We hear, that Kagamine is killing their time in New York with performing on Broadway as a leading lady in the musical 'The Beauty and the Beast', this time starring as the Beauty though. The shows are largely sold out, as no New York Americans fan worth their salt, would miss such an opportunity to see (and listen to) their future player live.

 

Callum on the other hand, has plans to join the ProAm Tournament and rumours have it, that his HOF dad may attend as well. Maybe even Marcel can be lured out of his cozy home in the Hamptons or his fishing hut in the Catskills to participate in this fun meet up with legends of old as well as stars to be.

 

Our correspondent in Sweden, Gretta Hjalmarsdotter met up with the Swiss defender and asked him some question regarding his imminent future.

GH: 'Hi Callum, thanks for making time in this busy time of the year.'

CGY: 'Hi Gretta. Of course. No rest for the wicked, right?'

GH: 'Vasteras meets now Cologne in the final for the Renaissance Cup. How do you see the chances to break their winning streak?'

CGY: 'Well, I think we have our work cut out for us. They have a very good team and the management knows how to win playoff series. On the other hand we are not here to fuck spiders and have a good squad as well. There are no easy wins anymore, once you reach the post season. This is especially true for a final. To me it looks like a 50/50 situation.'

GH: 'We hear that you are going to play in the ProAm Tournament this off season. What is the appeal to play even more hockey? Haven't you had enough of that?'

CGY: 'There is no such thing as 'enough' or even 'too much' icehockey. But to the special appeal of this event: I enjoy to meet some of the players I have watch and admired when I was a kid. These veterans, while often a little pudgy in the body center, have forgotten more about hockey than most of us rookies have ever known. It is a privilege to share a locker room with these legends and it pays out to pay attention. One might learn one thing or two.'

GH: 'We also hear rumours, that Rin Kagamine will share a flat with you in Little Italy, Mulberry Street in New York. Is that true?'

CGY: 'As of now, this is indeed correct. The flat our future team mate Mancini arranged for me, is big enough for the two of us. And we can ride the subway together to practice or home matches. I am sure the New Yorkers will be excited to meet 'The Beauty and the Beast' on the public transport.'

GH: 'Okay that were all the questions I had for today. Thanks for your time.'

CGY: 'Thanks for having me.'

 

Callum's playoff stats read as follows:

6gp, 0g, 4a, +4, 13 PIM, 18 hits, 6sb, 1/1 fight won, 1 First Star nomination

 

We will revert with more news in due course.
