Quik 4,113 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 What are your expectations for the upcoming Draft? In all likelihood, you will be returning to the VHLM, are you excited for another kick at the can with the Aces? How has it been adjusting to life in the VHLM?

In all likelihood, you will be returning to the VHLM, are you excited for another kick at the can with the Aces? How has it been adjusting to life in the VHLM? .1. I'm expecting to go somewhere in the top-4. I've only been contacted by one team, and it was one of the teams in the top-4. I'm also aware of how weak this draft class is. The only guys I could see being taken ahead of me are @diamond_ace, @Smarch, and @FacePuncher. 2. I was thinking the same thing, but after getting 30 TPE from compensation, and 20 from the VHLM achievement tracker, I'm still debating whether it will be best for me to stay down another season, or go straight to the VHL. I'll have to speak with the manager of my VHL team, and go from there. If I do go back down, I'm sure we'll have a much more successful season, and I think I'll have a good shot at winning some awards. 3. It's been pretty good. Having guys like @Spade18 and @diamond_ace around really helped me get acclimated quickly, and I think I'd now be able to do the same thing to anyone who steps into the league next season. Thanks for the questions. Quik and Spade18 2 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/47099-brandon-hood-press-conference/#findComment-502373 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CowboyinAmerica 2,889 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 So now that the draft happened, what's your thoughts on Davos? There aren't too terribly many young, always active defensemen. Do you see yourself in award contention early in your career?

Smarch 3,153 Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 (edited) Given our very young roster, what are your realistic views on how the season will play out for Davos? @philthethrill81 Edited February 18, 2018 by Smarch philthethrill81 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/47099-brandon-hood-press-conference/#findComment-503798 Share on other sites More sharing options...
philthethrill81 134 Posted February 19, 2018 Author Share Posted February 19, 2018 From @CowboyinAmerica: 1: I've been happy with everything in Davos so far. We've got a young team that I can develop with, and think that I will fit in well with the personalities around me, as well as the long term plans of the team. 2: I haven't looked around the league all that much, but that's great to hear. I plan on earning about 10 TPE/week, so I think it's a possibility for sure. It likely won't occur until later in my career though, with guys like Ko Kane and Keaton Louth being drafted a couple seasons before me and hitting there prime sooner. From @Smarch: 1: I expect it will be a rough season for us. As you said, we're a young team that needs to take some time to develop, but the future is bright, and I'm more then willing to go through some hard times in order to get to the good times, which by the looks of things, shouldn't be too far away. While I expect this season we will be near the bottom of the league, we'll only get better with time, and I see us making the playoffs as early as my 3rd season with the team (assuming no roster moves are made).

Quik 4,113 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 @philthethrill81 With just 1 win to start the season, and Davos clearly focused on the future, is there any regret in jumping from the VHLM to the VHL this early in your career? philthethrill81 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/47099-brandon-hood-press-conference/#findComment-506244 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banackock 8,049 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 1. Hey @philthethrill81 , where'd you run off to? 2. Can we expect to have you find your way back anytime soon? 3. If I may, what led you away from the VHL at the moment? We miss you experience, wisdom and enjoyable personality. 4. Recreate? Or just full on come-back? 5. What are your plans for this summer?
