Lazlo Holmes Press Conference

[Gustav 6,103]

I think it's a shame that these aren't more common.

 

Ask me (or my player) anything!

1. What's the idea behind the name?

2. How does it feel starting this new player?

Lazlo Holmes is the name of the reporter in this SNL sketch from a while back, played by Chance the Rapper. I think it's funny in general, but I can relate to it on some levels because I'm much more of a casual NHL fan than many VHLers. I like names that work whether you get the reference or not, and it sounds nice and is also hockey-adjacent in a nice way.

Interesting. To be honest, I'm not really excited or in any "can't wait" stage, because I'm not really experiencing much new and I know who all the GMs are and all that. I've always had a player and I've played this position before. But I'm still looking forward to it in that I'm happy I'm still here and that I still want to do stuff that also happens to make my player better. Maybe I'll fare better than I thought I would and be an all-time great!

I definitely feel like the people making the big differences out there on the ice are the hockey players. They're really doing that hockey and that's what's up.

In a word, cold. It is very cold down here, I do not get it, back to you.

No one told me that. When did we start doing paternity leave?

Well, first off, you gotta do that hockey. There's been some guys out there on the ice really getting it done and when one of your main guys scores a goal, that's what's up.

I'm down here with my main man, and I don't know (real-life Gustav doesn't know either), but I gotta ask him, in the next period, how are you gonna do that hockey?

Uh, it is very cold. And I do not get it. Cold as hell.
