Pier 21: S94 Halifax 21st Captains Announcement

[LucyXpher 1,572]

 

The Halifax 21st player leadership group will feature 3 returning players from Season 93. 

Captain: @Oddpurplefly Dorji Khan

 

Dorji Khan was drafted 52nd overall by Halifax in the S93 VHLM draft but the "Mongolian Stallion" has quickly become one of the fastest rising prospects in the VHL, eventually becoming the 22nd overall pick of the VHL's Toronto Legion in the S94 entry draft.  This past season, Khan became a max earner and has been leading the way for Halifax in the locker room every day.  Khan has, on multiple occassions, expressed his love for Halifax and his strong desire to remain with the team for one more season to try and bring the first championship to the 21st.  What more could you want from your captain?  Congratulations to Dorji Khan!

 

 

Assistant Captains: @ethanjaeda Robin Sierra and @Laine Aanarsi Reingaard
 

Robin Sierra was an undrafted free agent signed shortly after the S93 draft.  Passed over by every team in the VHLM in that deep S93 draft, Sierra would join Halifax on a 1 season contract and-- like Khan-- would quickly become a mainstay of the 21st offense.  Electing to join the 21st again as a free agent this offseason, Sierra has shown loyalty to the team and a desire to win in Halifax before graduating to the VHLE.  Ethan has been such a creative and enthusiastic member in the Halifax locker room this past season and we are excited to have them take on a leadership role as one of our assistant captains for S94.

 

Aanarsi Reingaard is entering his 4th and final season in the VHLM, his 3rd season with the Halifax 21st.  As an experienced VHL member, he brings a different perspective to our leadership group, but also an enthusiasm for the team and a desire to win.  Choosing Halifax once again as a free agent this offseason, Reingaard showed that he wants to be with the 21st for one last playoff run before moving on to the next stage of his career.  With his longevity with the franchise, Reingaard also has an opportunity to land among the top scorers in franchise history with another strong season.  

 

With the VHLM games beginning tonight, Halifax is buzzing with anticipation for another promising season!
