Preseason Thoughts/Davos Captaincy Announcement

[Alex 3,253]

Season 97 could be a interesting one, for both Davos and my player. I decided to take some time to gather my thoughts before the season, and heck I’ll toss the Davos captaincy announcement in here too, because I can!

 

Deadpanda:

It’s weird going into a season as the starting goalie for a team that is the direct challenger to the team you GM, this is essentially the reason why I would prefer to play in the NA but will stick it out with Moscow long-term if there’s no trade. I have also been told that there were some talks around my player, with them heading to a rebuilding NA team, one where I would be open to a long-term contract, so long as they are going in a good direction (by the looks of things they are). So, whether or not I’ll actually be playing for Moscow is still a little unknown. As for my goals, anything short of the All-VHL Rookie Team will be disappointing, there’s only 2 other notable rookie goalies though, so it could be a fun race. Would be really nice to win ROTY, but I guess time will tell what happens here.

 

HC Davos Dynamo:

We had a fairly busy offseason with needing to trade up to 9^th in the draft to take Tavetti Jokinen, trading out Ben Lass, brining Sunset Moth back to the team, and lastly we made what could have been the biggest trade of the offseason when we acquired Gianfranco del Rocco for Forum Content and a couple picks. It was a very successful offseason in my opinion as we improved our offense and got younger overall. It was really nice to finally get a del Rocco trade done as it’s something we had been trying to do since the S93 draft. The main goal for this season in Davos is simple, win the cup.

 

S97 Davos Captaincy Announcement:

With expectations being higher than recent seasons, we are very happy that we have a good mix of veterans and “rookie” to lead us this season, you S97 Davos Captains are:

 

Captain: Tavetti Jokinen

Drafted with the 9^th overall pick in the S97 draft, Jokinen embodies everything Davos. Currently Jokinen is a very solid defensive defensemen, which should work perfectly and complement their partner well. In the locker room, Jokinen is probably the most vocal player and is without a doubt Davos’s biggest fan.

 

Alternate Captain: Antonia Bucatini

After being drafted 1^st overall in the S93 draft, Bucatini has been an integral part of Davos since. Currently Bucatini has 101 goals and 158 assists for a total of 259 points through 216 VHL games along with winning top rookie honours in S94.

 

Alternate Captain: Grimgor Ironhide

Since joining Davos in S94, Ironhide has been the team’s top offensive contributor never having less than 85 points and 40 goals! Ironhide has been an alternate captain for the majority of their time in Davos and that run continues this season.

 

Anyways, that just about does it good luck this season to everyone, except Spartan.
