Monegasque McJesus | Killing Teams Left And Right

[eagle_3450 278]

Jean-Pierre Devote, now also known as "Monegasque McJesus" by San Diego fans, is currently on fire, rocketing to the top of the VHLM, and showing that his skill was never purely theoretical. He's started to become so good compared to the other players in the league that he is now SINGLE HANDEDLY killing teams on multiple occasions. These teams that have gone up against San Diego since Devote's decision to turn it on have stood zero chance due to the Monegasque player. There have been a few examples of this happening, the first one being Game 32, against Saskatoon. The Marlins won this game 3-1, Devote scored EVERY. SINGLE. GOAL. Now this was before his current charge, but it was a little teaser of what was to come in the next little while after the game. Then, in Game 125 against Houston, Devote showed further prowess by pocketing 2 goals and 2 assists in the 5-2 win over the Bulls. He also picked up the game winning goal, which leads into the fact that Devote currently is leading the entire VHLM in game winning goals, with 6. During this game, there was a 43 second span in the 2nd period where Devote had 5 shots on net and a goal. He would end this game with a total of 10 shots on goal, with his line combining for a total of 19 shots. Devote's high defensive skill (highest in the league among forwards), has also been showing as he currently sits at 20 shot blocks this season, and if takeaways were recorded by STHS, Devote would undoubtedly lead the league in that category. Majority of zone entrances by San Diego's 2nd line come from him intercepting a pass, knocking someone off the puck, or blocking a shot in the Marlins' zone and rushing up the ice with his linemates. Devote's pure dominance was further shown in his past 2 games, as in Game 131 against Mexico City, he once again would kill an entire team. In the 4-1 Marlins win, Devote once again had 3 goals, including the game winner, though he only had 4 shots on net in the game. Then in Game 138 against Halifax, against former teammate and fellow top S93 prospect Antonia Bucatini Devote would show why fans have given him the nickname of "Monegasque McJesus", pocketing another 2 goals and an assist, though he did not score the game winner this time around. While Bucatini tried to prove her dominance with 2 goals of her own, it was not enough and Devote's assist on the game winning goal sealed the fate of the Halifax 21st, San Diego would take the game 4-2, on the back of another amazing game by Devote, who had 8 shots on net in that one. Devote's current dominance has ascended to a level rarely seen in the Hybrid Era, and he already looks poised for the title of Best Monegasque Player in VHL History. While VHLM stats mean very little in the grand scheme of things, this dominant performance is definitely a sign of good things to come.
