Advantage 2,920 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Perhaps it should not be too surprising that Atticus Von Braxton IV is having a tough start to the season. He does play on one of the youngest teams in the league with the Vikings currently going through their rebuild. While they have quite a few promising prospects in the minors, just Diana Maxwell and Essian Ravenwing are the only two young players up there on the team. Therefore, the Vikings have a very depleted lineup and you cannot expect them to do much at all this year. With all that being said, Atticus Von Braxton IV felt that he could win them some games. "I've won teams games before. I have been put in pressure situations my entire career and been fantastic. I have two Playoff MVP trophies and two top goalies in the VHLM and I had a great year on New York in my rookie season and Stockholm in my sophomore year. Now I am back for year three in the VHL and I think I am only going to get better." Unfortunately for Atticus, at the moment, he could not be more long. Atticus has posted a 1-8-1 record with a 3.55 GAA and .905 save percentage. While the record is understandable, I believe that many expected the young netminder to post a higher save percentage given the amount of shots he has faced. Unfortunately, he has been letting more get past him than he expected and it is causing him to be far less confident between the pipes. Nevertheless, there is a lot of support behind him with management recently signing him to an extension as they still believe he is the goaltender for the present and future of the Vikings.

Phil 5,133 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 With basically just you three... it's no surprise.. but I agree, Braxton IV will be able to steal a few games here and there. That franchise is going to be pretty scary in a couple of seasons!
