Fire Tortorella 2,653 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Gow Excited to Join Lynx OTTAWA, ONTARIO - Death, taxes, and @Fire Hakstol's player joining the Ottawa Lynx in the VHLM. With the selection of Jeff Gow 2nd overall in the Season 56 VHLM Dispersal Draft, it's been unofficially confirmed that every player I've created has played with the Lynx or Ice Dogs at some point in their career. With the selection of Gow, Ottawa is adding what should be a premier (at the VHLM level at least) goal scoring forward who may be a contender for the Alexander Chershenko trophy, which is awarded to the VHLM's top regular season goalscorer. After the draft, we caught up with the young winger: "Given my agency's history with the Lynx, I'm pretty excited to join this franchise. My run with the Saskatoon Wild last season was a real eye opener for me. I saw all the effort it took to win a Founder's Cup. I struggled a little bit during the regular season and the playoffs. The game was played much faster and at a higher level than I was used to, and it showed in my point totals. At one point, I was getting the least amount of ice time of all forwards, and I can't say it wasn't deserved. I'm happy to already have a Founder's Cup to my name, but I want to bring what I learned during my stint with the Wild last season to the Lynx locker room for my own personal gain as well as the team's. I'm looking forward to working with new general manager @Beaviss and doing whatever I can do to help the team win." The Lynx are going into this season as a true contender in the VHLM. In addition to returnees Ho Lee Fook, Harma, and Bourdon, Ottawa added numerous players in the draft, such as goaltender Ike Arkander, wingers Ingolfsson, Shiro, Kiaskov, and defenseman Baustein. Former GM Jim Gow had this to say: "After the much needed rule changes in the VHLM making it harder to build super teams, this is a pretty strong team for this point in the season. We have a good balance of returning players and new draftees, as well as new player agencies and old agencies. I know we already made a trade right after the draft to swap a forward for a defenseman, but I wonder if we'll see any other trades. We may be missing a bonafide 1C, but it'll be hard to find one given those rule changes I mentioned earlier. Every team seems to be missing some pieces, so it'll be interesting to see how the dominoes fall. As the team stands, this group of players is definitely a contender, but we'll see if anything or anyone will be able to push this team over the top.

I have no idea why the topic posted twice. I posted the other one first by accident, hid it while I edited it, and then unhid it when I finished. Not sure why I ended up with 2 topics. But yes, looking forward to this season in Ottawa. Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/42692-claimed-gow-excited-to-join-lynx/#findComment-458401 Share on other sites More sharing options...
