I still prefer EFL because I actually know football but it's a lot easier to figure out a good build here than in the SBA. On 5/17/2018 at 8:40 PM, ADV said: What is your plan going forward build-wise with Arroyo? Currently planning on being a scorer, with top priorities going to scoring, puck handling and defense. On 5/17/2018 at 8:40 PM, ADV said: Any teams you want to play on going forward in the future with Arroyo or any future players? I'm happy playing for Calgary right now, so I haven't put much thought into any of the other teams at the moment. I'm not really too familiar with any of the other GMs outside of hedgehog and dollar so I guess I'd have to say Riga or Toronto if I had to pick. On 5/17/2018 at 8:40 PM, ADV said: Any teams you do not want to play for going forward? I'll play for any team that wants me and puts me in a position to be successful. That said, the Meute color scheme is kinda bland, and I don't understand the whole HC thing with Davos (is that a hockey thing?)

There's still some talented teams at the top so expecting a championship is a bit presumptuous but with our young talent improving constantly, I can see a cup appearance as soon as this season.

jRuutu 2,295 Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 1. How has the ongoing season gone so far - happy on your individual performance? 2. What team or player has been the most annoying to play against? 3. If you would have to pick just one - what part of your game is the most important one? 4. When it comes down to scoring a goal - what advice would you give to younger players? 5. Do you like the increase in commercial breaks? Gives players a small breather couple times per period, but is that a good or bad thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly I feel like I could be doing better than I have been. I'm on pace to decline points-wise compared to last season and I feel like I haven't helped the team as much as I could. Still if we end up with a Cup at the end, I'll take full 0's across the board. On 7/9/2018 at 1:24 PM, jRuutu said: 2. What team or player has been the most annoying to play against? It's probably a cop-out to name the current number one seed but it really has been the Dynamo. They play such a physical game and the McAllister + Roux one-two punch can really put the hurting on someone. On 7/9/2018 at 1:24 PM, jRuutu said: 3. If you would have to pick just one - what part of your game is the most important one? My best strength is my ability to elude defenders and finish at the goal. Being smaller than almost everyone makes it tough to win the physical battle, but my quickness catches people by surprise, and it's a unique weapon that not many are used to facing. On 7/9/2018 at 1:24 PM, jRuutu said: 4. When it comes down to scoring a goal - what advice would you give to younger players? Always know where you want to put the puck. If you just take a shot at the goal, usually the goaltender is going to stop it. Always decide ahead of time where you are going to aim, and always try to mix it up a bit. Say you might be most comfortable shooting to the top left corner, but if you go there every time the goalie's going to cheat. You have to keep him honest. On 7/9/2018 at 1:24 PM, jRuutu said: 5. Do you like the increase in commercial breaks? Gives players a small breather couple times per period, but is that a good or bad thing? I hate it personally. I'm fast, I got the energy to skate laps round these brutes. Give them more rest and my game is less effective.

Quik 4,113 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 You managed to hit 30 goals and bested your career high in points. Are you satisfied with your season? What do you think you need to improve the most to take the next step in your career? If you're at a barbecue and can only take one, do you take a burger or sausage, and why?

Do you expect to be a top goal scorer next season? That's the plan! We've got essentially a line of strong vets and a line of young up-and-comers, and it's time I take that next step. On 7/28/2018 at 11:27 AM, Velevra said: 4. Who is your favourite teammate on CGY? It's hard to pick anybody because we all gel so well. I'd have to go with my fellow young linemates Lawson and Vilhjalmsson though. We're growing together and we're sticking together. On 7/28/2018 at 11:27 AM, Velevra said: 5. What would you consider a successful VHL career for your player (i.e winning a cup, getting MVP, etc) There's so many great players in this league and I don't think I'd ever reach the MVP-caliber that some of these other guys have shown, but if I can win a cup, I'll be set. Leading the league in goals at some point would be great too, but at the end of the day, the only thing that matters is winning that cup!

Are you satisfied with your season? I'm pleasantly surprised I managed to top last season since it was looking like I was going to fall short around midseason. Still I'm not satisfied, I was hoping to break that 70 plateau and get point per game level. Quote What do you think you need to improve the most to take the next step in your career? Everything could be a bit better. If there's one thing that probably needs the most work it's probably my physical game and improving my strength but it's tough to find the extra time to commit to the weight room between games and practices. Quote If you're at a barbecue and can only take one, do you take a burger or sausage, and why? Gotta go with the dog. You can get a good burger any time, but the only truly worthwhile dog is off the grill.

I'm glad that I got to the 100 point plateau this season and think I'm trending in the right direction. There's other youngsters putting up more points but they aren't the ones with a cup win now. Quote 2. Feeling after winning the championship? Honestly more relief than excitement. I might have KGR'd losing two years in a row in 7 despite having the best team. Quote 3. Who is most dangerous opponent for Calgary this year? I haven't been following the off-season moves much but I hear a lot of buzz coming out of Toronto over some trades or something. Quebec City and Riga are also young teams on the up and up that might pose a threat. Quote 4. Are you happy your player is better than Hazard's one? Of course, though that wasn't a challenge Quote 5. When Memphis will finally win the championship? The sooner the better!

omgitshim 898 Posted October 22, 2018 Author Share Posted October 22, 2018 (edited) 12 hours ago, Victor said: 1. omg it's him. But who is he? He is a man of few words. I believe I first used this name years ago when I was trying to be secretive in a new Madden league and be a late round steal, and it's just kinda went back to it when I came back to sim leagues last year because I forgot the old name I used. Quote 2. Is having your last name be your first name backwards your thing? Should we expect a John Nhoj or similar in the future? Not likely, this is the first time I've done this that I remember and it's confusing myself half the time. Quote 3. Compared to what you expected going into the VHL, how would you rate your career so far? I think my career has been pretty good so far. I'm not putting up the kinds of points that some of the recent rookies have but I did pretty well last season, and I can't complain about two Victory Cups and a Continental Cup in just three seasons, especially after a Founder's Cup in my one VHLM season. Quote 4. Branding/endorsement shenanigans - yay or nay? Let's see how it goes. I'm not entirely sure what's going on with them but I got $2 million out of it. Actually that reminds me I should look at the store and figure out what's even worth spending my money on. Quote 5. What are your rough plans for the rest of Arroyo's career? Well I don't know if I'll ever be an MVP caliber player, but I do hope to sneak onto an all star/All VHL team in the future. I'll always take more cups on the trophy case as well. Ability-wise I'm gonna continue to push Puck Handling and Defense to the limit to match Scoring. I'm intrigued with the new trend of ignoring Passing entirely and still being a top scorer. Especially with the way Defense tends to increase point totals and the high scoring games we've been seeing recently, I wonder if there's some weird thing in the sim's code where Defense and Passing might have been flipped in some situations. I'm not sure how much more points I'd put into Skating or Passing anyway since that would start eating into the Scoring ratio but it is fascinating how many points people are racking up with no passing.
