River Recap

[kirbithan 1,931]

The playoffs are upon us. Let’s quickly reflect on Mr. River Harrington’s performance this season compared to last! 

 

Season 97:

River put up 11 goals and 36 assists for 47 points in 72 games during his rookie campaign, totaling 128 shots and a +16. He racked up 98 hits and 111 shots blocked, with 58 PIM. It was a serviceable first year in the VHL, and I was pleased considering the stacked Moscow squad he was playing behind. I seeked to help the team in any way I could despite the low TPE range, and despite the fact that Moscow didn’t win the Cup, I believe River’s performance was solid.

 

Season 98:

Going into this season, my main goal was to get points, hits, and shots blocked up. With the Obez Schneider  Canet du Bocage (whose name I still can't spell without looking at) swapping positions to forward, it was time for River to get some more minutes on the blue line.

 

With this, River put up 15 goals and 59 assists totaling 74 points in 72 games, which met my goal of being at least a point per game with a +40! So that was a huge win. His shot total pretty much doubled, with it reaching 248, and I wish he would’ve finished more of those. He also amassed a mere 35 hits and 104 shots blocked, with 28 PIM. I was a little disappointed with the decrease in physicality, but I did build him to be an offensive defenseman initially, though may pivot more towards two-way D later on.

Weird year for us, but you gave Jillian a run for her money for sure!
