Claimed:Goalie Sacks [Final 6/6]

[Tagger 2,722]

Imagine this on ice and you pretty much get the Edwin Reencarnacion Goalie Sack Experience

 

For some people, a simple goalie interference penalty is a minor thing. They just take their interaction with the goalie a bit too far to the point where they end up sitting in the penalty box for two minutes, hoping that the team don’t concede during that time. For one man though, it’s a lot more than that, it’s a way of life. It’s a way of influencing his teammates to victory, it’s a way of letting the opposing goalie know that he will not go down without a fight and, most importantly, a way to get himself into the esteemed penalty box. In fact, for Edwin Reencarnacion, it’s not even a goalie interference penalty, it’s a goalie sack and nobody does it better than the Dominican psychopath.

 

Before the horrific incident that saw him set on fire by request of the VHL administration, Encarnacion (as he was then known) was as devoted to finding the penalty box as any other goon to ever play in the VHL. However, Encarnacion was different than most goons who just enjoyed playing dirty, he wanted to use his PIMs to guide his team to victory, which saw him reinvent the goalie interference penalty as we know it. Instead of distracting the goalie with stick waving and nudging (what typically happens when a goalie interference penalty is called), Encarnacion would storm full throttle to the goalie, blasting anyone who would get in his way with his trademark checks, in an effort to bring him down for the goalie sack. This was not simply an act of extreme thuganomics, this was something Encarnacion did to make sure that the goalie could not get away with just watching the puck for the entire game. Having “invented” the goalie sack in Season 37, Encarnacion would go on to record 12 goalie sacks in six seasons, what we presume is a league record for goalie interference penalties. Nobody was safe from Encarnacion as he goalie sacked ten different goalies over the course of his career, five CPU goalies and five starters, including sacking both Callum Sinclair and Martin Brookside on two different occasions (In the case of Sinclair, Encarnacion actually sacked him in successive games!).

 

Not even being permanently on fire is enough to stop Edwin Reencarnacion from his goalie sacking ways.

 

Despite his pledge to “burn his name into the VHL record books”  seeing Edwin Reencarnacion place a more serious focus on his ability to score and assist, he’s still been able to keep up his terrific goalie sack record, recording three goalie sacks to this point of what will be his sole VHLM season. Perhaps the most serious statement of intent for his VHL plans came when Reencarnacion sacked perhaps the holiest goalie to ever register for the VHL, Holy the Goalie, proving that not even God dared to intervene with the force that was Edwin Reencarnacion. With plenty of the season left to play, it will be interesting to see if Reencarnacion can continue his fine run of form in this department or whether the focus on becoming a better hockey player sees him lean away from his trademark goalie sack.

Who's the vhls Reggie white?

Hmm, not sure.  I think Reencarnacion has more of a craziness and an edge about him, so I'd say he's the Lawrence Taylor.
