1. Slow start for us so far (1-2-1), but we've outshot our opponent in 3 of the 4 games. Any concerns, or is it still very early?

 

2. What is your favourite snack to have during the holidays?

 

3. Which team do you think will be the biggest competition in the North American Conference?

 

4. If you could pick only 3 holiday movies to watch around the holidays every year, what would they be?

6. Starting any new shows now that the holidays are almost over?

1. It’s too early to say honestly. As long as we keep on shooting, the puck will eventually go in. 

2. A snack? I would have to go with turtles. Always had turtles for Christmas and definitely look forward to them

3. I think Vancouver and the Bears. 

4. Home alone, grumpy old men and Polar express

5. Daisuke Kanou. Because Khan is known to perform well in the playoffs 

6. Just started squid game season 2

1. Slow start for us so far (1-2-1), but we've outshot our opponent in 3 of the 4 games. Any concerns, or is it still very early?  Never any concerns when you have Harry Callahan on the case!

 

2. What is your favourite snack to have during the holidays? 'Nuts and bolts' or Frito chili pie.

 

3. Which team do you think will be the biggest competition in the North American Conference?  Every team in front of us!  But I would say Calgary because my boy Abenduct is on the team.

 

4. If you could pick only 3 holiday movies to watch around the holidays every year, what would they be? Die Hard, Christmas Vacation and Christmas with the Kranks

 

5. The VHL Awards committee comes to you and tells you that they want to re-name one of the VHL Awards in your honour. Which award would you want to be named in your honour? The biggest draft bust award is the only thing that fits, so let's go with that!!!

 

6. Starting any new shows now that the holidays are almost over? No, I'm living in the past and rewatching Star Trek TNG

1 - From the perspective of 10 games deep, my only concern is for my own player.

2 - Hmm. Probably cheese and crackers 

3 - Chicago beat us twice so far, IIRC, so definitely them

4 - I'm not super big on Christmas movies, but I'd probably go Die Hard, Christmas Vacation, and the cartoon Grinch from the 60s

5 - Probably the Boulet because of how much I chased that with Klose 

6 - I rewatched S1 and S2 of KonoSuba to prep for S3. Also working through another anime.

Very early.

2. What is your favourite snack to have during the holidays?

anything that makes my blood sugar sky rocket.

3. Which team do you think will be the biggest competition in the North American Conference?

Chicago

4. If you could pick only 3 holiday movies to watch around the holidays every year, what would they be?

The Harry potter series is a must for me as well as home alone... 3rd has to be die hard 

5. The VHL Awards committee comes to you and tells you that they want to re-name one of the VHL Awards in your honour. Which award would you want to be named in your honour?

Most improved player.

6. Starting any new shows now that the holidays are almost over?

 Toronto Legion Press Conference 

(2 TPE for answering all six questions)

 

1. After the slow start to the season, we're now 11-5-1, but still sitting 5th in the NA. It looks very much like last season where the NA Conference will be strong and deep, while the EU Conference is more top heavy. Where do we need to improve to move up from 5th?

 

2. Did you make any New Year's resolutions heading into 2025?

 

3. How well do you handle the colder weather in the winter months?

 

4. We've already got 6 different players with game winning goals and 7 different players with powerplay goals. Who has been the standout offensively so far in a balanced scoring effort?

 

5. Who is a movie character that was iconically played by one person that you couldn't see being re-cast?

 

6. What movie coming out in 2025 are you looking forward to seeing most?

[der meister 3,277]

1 - tougher defensive play for sure. Allowing too many.

2 - not really. I need to finish the edit on my book and release it, and should probably start taking care of my mental health.

3 - Progressively worse the older I get

4 - Macho is the straw that stirs the drink, ooohhh yeah! The cream of the crop!

5 - a lot of marvel actors, honestly. Excellent casting in the MCU.

6 - I actually had to look up releases. Tron:Ares with the Trent Reznor soundtrack is going to be badass

1. I definitely think we are playing a good game overall but we are allowing quite a bit of shots so I think defensively we should tighten up.

2. Same as every year. Try to be healthier and eating properly 

3. Being from Canada, you have to be able to handle the cold. I still go out in just a hoodie to shovel even in -30°C I think I do quite well in the cold lol

4. I would say Machado so far. He's been great all around

5.  Chris Farley in all his movies

6. How to train your dragon

(2 TPE for answering all six questions)

 

1. We've outshot our opponents in 25 of 32 games this season, but it isn't translating on the scoreboard. Is it just bad luck with Simon, or an issue with us?

 

2. What's the biggest surprise from NFL Wild Card Weekend?

 

3. Do you think that the VHL's playoff format needs a change as has been suggested to open up the wild card spots to both conferences and allow conference crossovers?

 

4. Dusted or Original chicken wings? And while we're at it, drums or flats?

 

5. If you had to recreate a player right now, which position would you pick to recreate as?

 

6. Who was your preferred Sherlock Holmes, Benedict Cumberbatch or Robert Downey Jr.?

6. Who was your preferred Sherlock Holmes, Benedict Cumberbatch or Robert Downey Jr.?

1. I'm positive we are just unlucky. Every shot is an added chance of scoring. We just have to keep shooting and eventually, things will go our way.

2. I can't really answer that. I don't follow much football I used to follow more, especially when I had a newspaper everyday because It was there and I'd read pretty much all the sports section. Now we get scrap newpaper and it’s way too expensive.

3. I think it's a good idea. It would be similar to divisions in the NHL where each top 3 of the division goes , then the rest fight for a wildcard

4. Either of them would be good right about now lol but I'd go original and I prefer the flats. Easy deboning and easy to dip

5. Since I am a forward right now, I'd go towards defense or goalie

6. I should have seen those movies... but I haven't

1 - I think it's a Shev problem. I don't get it.

2 - How much people care about football

3 - Needed? No. Could be fun though. 

4 - I grew up in the suburbs of Buffalo, but have been vegetarian for 23 years. Drums before then, and Franks Red Hot.

5 - A goalie who spends his career in the VHLE. That was my plan at least.

6 - That's tough. Very different characters. RDJ was more accurate to the source material, but Benny was very fun.

2. Will you be watching the Four Nations Cup tournament closely next month?

 

3. If your player had a custom goal song, what would it be?

 

4. Do you refer to Gatorade drinks by their colour or their flavour?

 

5. Dalkr Vidarsson is tied for the league lead among goalies in both Assists and Penalty Minutes. Can he finish with the most in the league in both categories by the end of the season?

1. I think an upgrade of any position, minus the goalie, would help us. But the price might be steep for an upgrade

2. Yes I will. I have been excited for it  

3. Since my player is a mongolian.. 

4. By color. Every single time. 

5. In Assists would be cool.  But he should lay off the penalties

6. Spoon. Meat can be handled with your fingers but soup is hard to eat with a fork or fingers

1. As a Prospect of the Team it's hard to say but I think adding to the Defense could help this team a lot

 

2. Absolutely I will be watching GO USA!

 

3.

 

 

4. Gotta be the Pink flavor

 

5. I think Dalkr will take it in Penalty Minutes but Assists is gonna be tuff 

 

6. Fork
