PRESS CONFERENCE

 

Answer 3 Questions for 1 TPE or answer 6 questions for 2 TPE

Week Ending Dec 22nd

 

1. There was a recent trade which brought in 4 prospects to the team. The cost was a plethora of picks including our S99 1st. What are your thoughts on this trade?

2. How has your off-season gone so far? Has your player done anything exciting? Are they taking it easy? Are they training hard for the upcoming season? Has this off-season felt longer than other off-seasons?

3. What are some goals for your player this season? Are you looking to score goals? Make a lot of hits? In general, win a lot of games?

4. What attributes are you looking to upgrade in the near future? Are you looking to upgrade one attribute in specific, or many?

5. Malmo Management wants to invite the team out for a night before the season starts up, what should we do and where should we go? Hit the bars for some social drinking? Maybe go bowling?

6. It's the season of Christmas, with only 10 days to go what are you planning to do for the holiday?

1. I like the move as I think it bridges us forward for a couple seasons while the team retools.  A lot of players in their last season and we need the players who are going to be able to step in this year or next.

 

2. Not bad.  Prepping for his last season.  A little bit disappointed to not being a member of Team Scandinavia, but these tournaments serve those in the prime of their career and Flint is in his swansong.  

 

3. I obviously want to win a Continental Cup given its mine and a few others' last season in the league.  I admittedly would like to take over the team record for goals, assists and points cause that would be pretty fun, but the cup is what I really want.

 

4. Honestly pretty much everything just to make up for the depreciation I have hit.  Over the course of the season I expect to rebuild though and be at my best come playoff time.

 

5. Escape Room before Dinner and some Pool.

 

6. Spend it with my family honestly.  Only thing I want to do.

a. Better than most the league feels about it, it's risky and leaves a lot less room to pivot in the future, we might need to be all in with all our future picks until the next wave of retirement, or this will be rough past 98.

CHRISTMAS THEMED PRESS CONFERENCE

 

1. IT'S THE CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS!!! How do you typically celebrate Christmas? What are you doing to celebrate this year? If you don't celebrate Christmas, do you celebrate a different holiday around this time of year?

2. What is your favorite Christmas holiday beverage (does not have to be alcoholic) or meal? I've never been an eggnog guy but apparently a lot of people like it!

3. Does it snow for Christmas where you live? If so, how much do you get this time of year? How cold is it? Or are you living the Oceania dream of the winter heat for Christmas? (It's 30 degrees Celsius, 83 Fahrenheit, in Melbourne right now)

4. Do you remember when you finally figured out that Santa wasn't real? If not, do you remember anything about Santa traditions as a child? (parents left out cookies, snow foot prints on the roof)

7. If you could, would you rather spend the holidays at home with your family, or bring them all on vacation somewhere? I feel most people tend to stay home for the holidays, but if you had the choice, would you go somewhere else?

8. Malmo organization has decided to invite all players' friends and family to a big Christmas gathering before the season starts up. If you could help us choose a Christmas/Winter themed event for everyone, where and what should we all do?

A. I get drunk (on Czech beer), fall asleep, get told upon waking up that I yelled in the face of orphan children drunkenly but forgot. At least that's what @LucyXpher thinks I do

1.  Merry Christmas!!! I don’t celebrate Christmas but around a month or so earlier, I celebrate Diwali, where we light candles in our house and fireworks outside, eat lots of sweets and spend time with our family!

 

3. Sometimes! This year it’s a bit white, past couple years it’s been as dry as a bone so thankfully we got some here this year 

 

6. That’s a tough one! Assuming genie rules apply, I’d say my best bet would be to ask for a united world, where we can cooperate to solve all problems with cooperation rather than conflict!

 

7. I gotta say stay at home. Holidays are always a good time to relax and spend time at home with families, and going out kinda changes the vibe of the holidays!

 

9. Home Alone! Every. Single. Christmas my dad puts the movie on for us to watch, so it’s become a tradition to watch the first one with the whole family!

 

10. Rockin’ around the Christmas tree by Brenda Lee, and It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas by Micheal Bublé are two which are always in my mind around this time of year!

[BOOM 8,818]

1. IT'S THE CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS!!! How do you typically celebrate Christmas? What are you doing to celebrate this year? If you don't celebrate Christmas, do you celebrate a different holiday around this time of year?

 

I actually despise christmas to be perfectly honest. I'm one of the many humans that identify as "Grinch" at this time of year. It means nothing to me.

 

2. What is your favorite Christmas holiday beverage (does not have to be alcoholic) or meal? I've never been an eggnog guy but apparently a lot of people like it!

 

Beer, beer and more beer as I attempt to drown out the sound of those celebrating around me.

 

 

3. Does it snow for Christmas where you live? If so, how much do you get this time of year? How cold is it? Or are you living the Oceania dream of the winter heat for Christmas? (It's 30 degrees Celsius, 83 Fahrenheit, in Melbourne right now)

 

It has snowed here, but doesn't sit for very long before it melts, but generally no...it's fu%king hot around Dec 25 here.

 

4. Do you remember when you finally figured out that Santa wasn't real? If not, do you remember anything about Santa traditions as a child? (parents left out cookies, snow foot prints on the roof)

 

What the f*ck do you mean he's not real? I'm calling my mother about this....

 

9. What is your favorite Christmas movie of all time? Do you have a favorite Christmas show? Some shows have Christmas themed episodes!

 

The same ones always get re-run down here. Home Alone, Christmas Vacation etc. I don't really care what they play.

 

10. Is there a Christmas song that gets stuck in your head around this time of year? Maybe even there is a Christmas song that's wildly overplayed, which one comes to mind? (Mine is "Underneath the Tree" by Kelly Clarkson)

 

If I hear ANY Mariah Carey or Buble Christmas song in the next 24 hours, I shall commit murder, or at the very least property damage.

1) I have Christmas dinner with my wife and her family on Christmas eve and then with my mom and sister on Christmas Day and that's generally it, try to have game night with friends at some point during the Christmas week as well

2) I do like eggnog

3) I live in Winnipeg, so I'm used to a lot of snow around Christmas time. The last three days the temperature has been -2, 0, and today +2 which, honestly, is ridiculous. The snow is melting on December 27th. It's nice if you have to be outside, but if anything is going to call out how real climate change is, the legitimate possibility of not having a white Christmas in Winnipeg at some point with this kind of weather should do it.

5) I am a gift giver for sure

7) I love to travel. If money wasn't an issue I'd definitely go on vacation.

10) Carol of the Bells is kind of a banger actually

2. It has to be eggnog, which is basically the only actual Christmas beverage-- but it must be consumed in moderate amounts!  Too much eggnog is no bueno!

3. It does not usually snow here in Houston for Christmas.  Maybe like once every 20 years, but we're much more likely to have a wet Christmas than a white Christmas.  This year, it's been very warm and I'm not sure how I feel about it...


4. Wait, Santa's not real?!?  Christmas is ruined forever...


5. I'm definitely a gift giver.  Every year I need to be the first person to give my gifts to family and friends.  It makes me feel weird opening my gifts first and I take my Christmas shopping very seriously 


9. Elf.  I've seen that movie wayyy too many times.

 

10. For me it's "Baby It's Cold Outside".  I always find myself humming it around this time of year-- even if it isn't actually cold outside...
