1. I'd like to think I've been pretty clutch with my ability to score goals and I'd like to continue to do whatever I can to help the team.

 

2. In looking to break into a VHL squad hopefully  and the VHL Draft is coming up so I'm not really invested in the VHLM too too much right now to be honest

 

3. Scoring goals, I've had decent puck luck and i've been able to find the back of the net.

 

4. My skating, I need to get faster to be able to keep up at the VHL level. 

 

5. There ain't no rest for the wicked. I'll just keep commiting to my training and work with a powerskating coach to try to be best prepared for the VHL.

 

6. Labor Day. I like to go out backpacking during the labor day long weekend. I look forward to it.

1. I think penalties are hurting us in certain games but overall I think finishing is our biggest struggle 

2. Chad powers has struggled, I think at the time of writing he has the lowest save percentage of any goalie in the JST, I’d really like to see at least a .900%
3. Petan is leading the team in points and assists he’s really keeping us in this

4. it’s bitter sweet I like my teammates in the JST so it’s going to suck to leave them but I look forward to the vhlm and whatever it has in store.

5. Montreal, poutine sounds really good right about now

6. it’s been a ton of fun I’ve met a lot of great people the only part that’s been frustrating has been my performance

1. I personally feel like that we need to work on our defense more. 

2.Honestly, I feel like my player did better then expected as Petr did get a few assists. This is considering that I didnt put too much TPE into any offensive traits.

3.I would say out goalies. The main reason being that they're doing their best to keep us in the game. 

4.Heck Yes! 

5.I would go to the Maldives. I love my  ice and snow but a ocean view aint bad either.

6. It's been fun. Its great to see all the prospects and possible future teammates playing together.

1. Discipline continues to be an issue. But we also need to tweak the offense - maybe the line combos - to generate more goals. Also, perhaps try some others in the shootout.

2. Well, I can't complain with leading the team in scoring (currently) and being one of the top offensive defensemen in the tourny so, yeah, that's what I was hoping for. A better plus/minus rating would be ideal

3. Chazz - he's been stopping everything!

4. Yes! I'm looking forward to the M draft to see where I end up. Excited to hopefully be in the Top-10 for the first time.

5. Anywhere with mountains.

6. I think it's great! Having played in it and managed a team (Pickles) I think it one more thing to get new players engaged and excited about the league.
