2. I would choose rising VHL stars as the theme week topic for next season. 
3. I would target some skaters if I was the GM for Mexico City because I believe we could improve on our scoring since our defense is playing fine. 
4. I feel like my player could execute more hits as a defender while assisting the offense.
5. I have not really lived up to my expectations this season. I was expecting to play better defense.
6.  I don't have a favorite team in any sports that i follow.

1. It is a fun topic and I love it was VHLM focused!

2. Analyze a new user player and how they have done this season - can be anyone in the VHL, VHLE or VHLM as long as they are a first time user

3. Wings. We have been good on defense but seem to lack scoring compared to other top teams

4. It has been solid. It has had a mini slump lately and hope it does not continue

5. It has been much better than expectation. Easy to navigate league that has great supportive users.

6. I don't know the basics of ice hockey as a sport

1. We're first now, but Saskatoon is just one point behind, and we haven't been great lately. In this moment, I'd say it's a coin flip between these two teams. But I can't see us falling lower than second.

 

2. Miami is one point in front of us, and Saskatoon is one point behind us. We're not finishing first, but things would have to go really bad for us to finish below fourth. 

 

3. I think Samsayz is going to go off and take the team lead. But I might be biased; of course I want to see a fellow defender tear it up!

 

4. It's only natural that our biggest hitter and the most physical player gets the most penalty minutes. My vote is Carl. But next year it's probably going to be Grønvold, no matter what team hr ends up in.

 

5. Of course, just like the ones that will follow!

 

6. What is it now? 42-14-7 for 91 points in 63 games? I'm saying we're winning 6 and only losing 2 in regulation, so 48-16-8 for 104 points.

1. Grønvold is on keto diet, he munches on nuts and sunflower seeds before the games, all the delicious fats keep him going for 30 minutes a night.

 

2. I have the feeling he's into dark green, and it's not just because of the name and birth place. 

 

3. He loves fish and seafood. On cheat days, he still mostly eats these, but have them battered and deep fried and eat them with sriracha mayo.

 

4. His home made electrolyte drink. It's water with stevia, salt, some magnesium and a few slices of lemon.

 

5. The ones when he doesn't play hockey!

 

6. Be drafted by a VHLM team! Other than that, he's planningto do some hiking in B.C.

1) I-Smell is a polar bear that likes junk food. His go-to meal is definitely Hotdog with regular Coca-Cola!

2) White because he is a white polar bear and they need the white color to blend in and sneak up to their prey.

3) Hotdog for sure. Other polar bears stay with their healthy fish diet, but I-Smell gotta cheat with the hot dog.

4) Coca-Cola as he is the proud sponsor of the drink. Gotta drink what pays you.

5) Wednesday - Hump Day as it is more for animals in the desert. Those living in the cold prefer Mondays to lay low.

6) Hibernate of course. Like many pro athletes sleep is a key source of their training.

6) What are your expectations for next season?

1. My favorite part of season 94 was when the Mexico City Kings shocked the league by starting undefeated for a few games.

2. The worst part of season 94 was when our team fell from 1st all the way to 4th in 3-5 sims which shattered some hopes from our fans. 

3. I would pick Samsayz I-Smell as the team MVP this season because he contributed to the defense very well with the most points

4. I am looking forward to continue to improve my game as a user and a player in season 95

5. I am planning to take part in any offseason tournaments that Roman Amnon is eligible for because I want him to gather life experience with playing against players he never faced before as intense practice. 

6. My expectations for next season is to improve my overall build as a defender and I expect my player to contribute more to the team offensively.

6) What are your expectations for next season?

 

1. It has to be captain Triller having a career year and leading the United in points. I'm happy Kerr was able to help out after having a career year himself the season prior.

 

2. I was still more invested in Kerr's season than in Grønvold's. And getting swept in the first round, when this was Kerr's last chance to win the Cup was crushing.

 

3. I'd say Samsayz. They were second in scoring in both regular season and postseason, as a defender, while leading the team in blocked shots as well.

 

4. Seeing how the 200TPA build I have in mind simulates, compared to my expectations.

 

5. Any time there's hockey to be played, Grønvold is there! It's the excitement from a new toy, I want to see Grønvold simming every day!

 

6. Mostly good LR vibes. As for Grønvold's stats, being up there near the top in hits and blocked shots, with around a point per game would be nice

6) What are your expectations for next season?

1) Leading the league most of the time until the end and us leading on many defensive categories was the most memorable

2) Having bad losing streaks at the end of the season was tough - especially losing players via inactivity

3) Gavin Bedard was our team MVP - he was our leading scorer for most of the season and led us as the rest of us were mostly playing defense

4) I'm interested to learn and experience the VHLE and how the league might be different

5) Yes for both tournaments to get along with other teammates and build bonds earlier in my professional career

6) Hoping to start and make an impact in the VHLE as I prep for the majors

I’m stealing this one cause I have no Press Conference to do

 

1. I joined because I was bored during the summer. It was this, getting a job, or grinding video games, figured it would be better to write rather than just grind away on risk

2. I was choosing a position that was needed. I was a d-man previously and decided that I was gonna be a C or D, decided that I’d be easier to do what I’d done before

3. This was supposed to be Dabnad Shaw’s son, so the last name stayed the same, then I simply chose a first name that I liked and there is went

4. I chose India because I am from India. I wasn’t born there but I’ve been to India multiple times. I kept this for Dabnad Shaw and kept it for Narnia Shaw

5. This is because Mexico City is simply just better, you also have the best alumni of the team which is why Mexico City is the greatest.

6. I think I’ll do well because of the Quinn Hughes build that I’m aiming to make. I’m aiming to get a large passing and skating, then increase my defense, much like Hughes, his mode, has been successful so I hope mine will be too.

This will be my last team press conference. How time flies!

 

1) I joined to enjoy a league with other good users I found in the PBE. I wanted to see them in their element and have been pleasantly surprised.

2) I thought I could help the most playing defense and I like to play positions that allow others to shine.

3) I chose the name because Sam says I smell often!

4) It is a polar bear and this one in particular smells so much it lives alone in the Antarctic.

5) It is great because it has a proud tradition, good city that represents a whole country and are kings! What more would you need to prove you are the best?

6) I hope to do well because I stink and others will leave me alone.

6) Are you or have you ever been involved in another Simulation league, which one and how was your experience?

1. It's gonna be my full M season. I'm mostly looking to be a part of a good locker room. To be honest, it's more important to me in the development leagues than success is.

 

2. In the same way as question 1 - I hope to avoid a dead locker room.

 

3. I love the color scheme of the Phantoms and the logo of the Reapers, imagine combining these two. I guess it's because even though I'm 30, I've never grown out of my edgy teen phase.

 

4. Even though I love the franchise, I must say I'm not a fan od the Wolves logo, there's just not much going on in my opinion. You could make a better logo featuring a Wolf.

 

5. There are just so many members making insanely good graphics - STZ, OrbitingDeath, Frank, Triller, BOOM and I'm sure I'm forgetting a lot of other members. But my favorite content usually comes from that VHL Games fella.

 

6. I used to be into Powerplay Manager quite a lot - the first time I joined was about 13 years ago. I used to have a hockey team there, but it's very different than VHL - every member is a general manager of a team, the players are generated. But eventually I grew bored of it, because most of the time, there was just nothing happening other than annoying micromanaging - the only way to get rid of this was to pay for a "pro" account.

5) Which team do you think is our greatest opponent this season, why?

6? Which team do you think will place last this season, why?

 

1. I'd say our top end talent, we have 7 players who could be capped come playoff time, that's really, really good.

 

2. Depth, we could definitely use a D-man and two more forwards to complete our roster. The less time bots are on the ice, the better.

 

3. Grønvold is a defensive beast, definitely his shutdown ability. His defensive awareness might be the best in the league, and he can outskate and outmuscle pretty much anyone in the M.

 

4. His offensive abilities. I do expect Grønvold to finish the season around point per game simply because of how Simon works, but his offensive game in isolation is pretty much nonexistent.

 

5. I'd say Houston. On paper, us and the Bulls are the strongest teams in the West.

 

6. Top 3 in the league is definitely possible, especially if se can complete our team via waivers or trades. We have some gamebreaking talent that can compete with anyone.

5) Which team do you think is our greatest opponent this season, why?

6? Which team do you think will place last this season, why?

1. Weve got a pretty solid defense in front of a solid goalie so keeping the other teams goal counts low should be a breeze

2. Our offense is pretty top heavy so our scoring depth could cause issues

3. My player is an all around player so no strength or weakness

4. Same answer as question three basically

5. MIS and LVA are going to be pretty good both have very filled out rosters with depth

6. SDM are going to struggle a lot. Using a lot of bots is going to kill any game momentum you may gain
