Girts 1,053 Posted October 7 Share Posted October 7 (edited) That is the question... In his 3rd season in the VHL 6'8" 250 pound Wolves defenseman Guntis Gavilrovs posted a career season with 21 goals, 49 assists, for 70 points with 12 powerplay goals, 238 hits and 173 blocks. An absolute monster performance from the "defensive defensman" that then saw him score 5 points in 7 playoff games as he helped the Wolves to a game 7 of round 2. As he enters his prime some would say he is one of the most valuable VHL blueliners to have on your team over the next few seasons. That is if you don't mind the edge Gavilrovs brings on the ice resulting in pretty high penalty minutes! 675 pims over 3 seasons. Depsite his bruising all around game being what made him a fan and team favorite, he realizes now as the #1 Dman he has to keep a little cooler head out there so he's not in the box in key situations. Guntis has vowed to work on his temperament this coming season. Now don't get us wrong he's still going to play the same abusive mean style that made him a star, but he's going to do without the two-handed chops to players heads and jumping over the glass to fight fans. If Gavilrovs can keep his pims under 200 and produce the same or even improve, nobody will have to worry about him almost being traded again, or waiting for Frank in the parking lot.

Thunder 1,166 Posted October 7 Share Posted October 7 yes to PIM’s if they are fights or good pims. No to the kind of pims Trueno gets, like diving, tripping, delay of game.
