Press Conference week of Sept 29 2024

 

1) What are your thoughts on offseason tournaments?

2) Do you take part in them, why or why not?

3) Tell me about what you normally do during the offseason?

4) What is your TPE earning plan during the offseason?

5) A recruitment advertisement went out recently, how were you recruited into the VHL?

6) Have you ever referred someone to the league, did they enjoy it?

 

1. I like them, offseasons tend to be too long without them.

 

2. Yes! I'm GMing in ProAm - Nuuk Narwhals - and my previous player is signed up to the tournament. I also AGM the Rush at JST, a team where Grønvold plays, and I've applied for a GM job at the WJC.

 

3. Just keep on earning. Last offseason, I did a multi-week Media Spot about tur goaltending in the previous season, maybe I'll do something similar. Offseason is a great time to dig through some numbers.

 

4. 12 capped every week of course! I also got 4 TPE for Super Coach and 5 TPE for VHFL, so I'm really happy. I have no idea what I put in Predictions, so let's see if I get at least a little something.

 

5. I came from YouTube. I'm not sure which youtuber it was, I think CynFTW or Rob Talks Hockey. They did an add read, I was intrigued but forgot about it until I heard a second ad read.

 

6. No, I haven't. My social circles of a) people who might be interested and b) people whose english is decent enough don't overlap.

6) Tell me what the worst thing about offseason is?

 

 

1. His defensive abilities. His awareness, his skating and physicality work together well. I hope to see the resutls in team defense stats.

 

2. Just a few tweaks in bodychecking and he's set for his final development season.

 

3. Has to be offense. He's gonna record some points simply because of his hockey IQ and pretty good hands, but he's not an offensive creator.

 

4. He's a blue collar guy and he loves the sea, he'd probably work at a fishing ship.

 

5. He's going to hunt down the Kraken that sunk his father's ship.

 

6. NHL offseason - no hockey. VHL offseason - this one wasn't that bad. But when you're not a commish or something, and when your player isn't a part of many sims, there's just not much to do. I'd say it's hard to stay engaged unless you have some buddies you can keep in touch with and keep each other motivated.

1. my balance and consistency

2. increasing all my stats to the point of being the goat

3. I have none. I am the best there will be

4. Probably an Olympic figure skater

5. Being hired by a VHL team as a goalie coach

6. How unbelievably long it feels. It just drags on.

6) Pick one of our conference competitors and evaluate how the have done so far?

 

1. He should add more hits and blocked shots, for some reason he's been pretending he's an offensive defenseman. But it's been working out for him, and our team defense looks solid, so I won't complain.

 

2. We're 3rd overall in goals for, but a lot of our offense comes from the blue line. I'd like to see another forward stepping up and helping out Hunter S 

 

3. A+ top to bottom, there's really nothing to nitpick.

 

4. A little rough start for Chazz, but he'd shown he's a quality starter before, no doubt he'll bounce back. Meanwhile, Shaunca has been a brick wall.

 

5. Way too early to tell. The team he has put together is now 1st in the West, so great job here. We'll see what other moves he has planned!

 

6. Aces are the only rivals that look scary st the moment. Deadpanda has been rock solid. Their defense look fairly efficient despite not being the highest in TPE, there are experienced member who know how to build players. But what I've liked the most so far has been the two-way game of their stacked forward core, their team defense is on par with ours, despite us having clearly superior blue line.

1) How do you feel your player has performed so far?

Well, I would like to have more points, and less PIMs. I need to do a better job working on my discipline.

2) How do you feel our forwards have performed so far?

We are running pretty middle of the road in terms of production. I feel like it's been pretty good. Always room for improvement.

3) How do you feel our defense has performed so far?

Pretty average to be honest. I know I need to working on staying out of the box. Always room for improvement.

4) How do you feel our goalies have performed so far?

We've had a real sturdy goalie stable so far this season.

5) Evaluate your GM so far this season?

Top-notch. Would play under again. Press conferences are great. Great reminders in Discord, but not overbearing.

6) Pick one of our conference competitors and evaluate how the have done so far?

The Saskatoon Wild have gone in the opposite direction from us. We went up, they went down.

1. Definitely a sperm whale, to instill fear into Grønvold's greatest foe - The Kraken.

 

2. It's not celebrated in Czechia, but I like spooky stuff. I like the fact creepypasta channels are especially active in this season, I love listening to those.

 

3. The fact it's not celebrated in Czechia. Seriously, it looks fun! There are some clubs organising Halloween parties, but that's it. 

 

4. I don't know, what are typical Halloween treats? I love anything with peanut butter 

 

5. I don't like stuff with coconut, so if there are any, I hate those.

 

6. If there was trick-or-trearing here, I'd probably be giving out these store brand chocolate bars from Penny Market, they're awesome and are made with peanut, caramel or hazelnut filling.

1) What costume is your player wearing to parties this year?

Wlad is going to go as RoboCop. A nod to his Detroit background.

2) What is your favorite thing about Halloween?

I very much enjoy the treats of Halloween. The movies are a great time. I also like passing out candy with the neighbors and looking at all the costumes.

3) What is your least favorite thing about Halloween?

The sugar crash and ensuing diet my wife (and me by proxy) go on afterwards.

4) What is your favorite Halloween treat?

Gotta go with Reese's Cups. The special holiday ones always have the best Peanut Butter to Chocolate ratio.

5) What Halloween treat do you despise most?

If we are talking candy, licorice. Overall Halloween treat... pennies or raisins.

6) What are you giving out for Halloween this year?

Oh gosh geeze, my wife started hitting the sales a few months ago. We are known as the king size house. Since we have no kids (nor want any) we spoil the ones in our neighborhood. Full size candy bars and other non-chocolate full size candies.
