Neutron Declares for S97 Draft

[Corco 1,260]

RETROVILLE, USA - In a bit of a stunning move today, the father of renowned boy genius Jimmy Neutron, Hugh Neutron, announced his intent to leave his quaint hometown of Retroville in order to declare for the S97 VHL Draft. The news came as of bit of a shock to family members Judy, Jimmy, and robot-dog Godard, with the latter reportedly sobbing in his backyard lab nonstop for six hours straight, our insiders report. VHL Scouts are unsure what to make of the lanky 6'1, 150 lb defenseman, with one quoted as saying "he's going to need to add some bulk to his frame for sure, but then again I'm not even sure that's going to be possible given that he is an animated character created by a bankrupt studio that no longer exists". The other elephant in the draft room is the status of Neutron's agent, Thomas Corcoran; Corcoran has not had a player in nearly four years, and has not been active for the full career of one of his players since the end of goaltender Eggly Bagelface's career in S40. Despite strong career starts from Rudolph Schmeckeldorf and Chad Magnum, both would eventually lose interest later in their careers.
