Ottawa Lynx press conference

[qripll 502]

1. How in the world did we lose to Houston? Did they have a trick up their sleeve?

Idk man, they had only 7 shots and that one was a lucky one. Before going in the net, there were around 3 or 4 rebounds. Even best goalie along the league can't catch it.

 

2. Howmany more losses do you'll think we'll have this season?

It depends how many times Trunov will be a starter. Anyway, we can easily catch a huge win streak and win about 55 games. 

 

3. Did you see the newly announced captains? Did anyone surprise you?

Yeah, I was surprised Trunov wasn't mentioned. Truly one of the best players in Lynx history, but no matter how the ream treat me I'll bring them the cup and they will realise what gem I am 

 

4. Who do you think will be the Lynx MVP this season?

Trunov no doubt.

 

5. How much better is the VHLM without the E, do you prefer these new much more active locker rooms?

Yeah, M league is fantastic. 

6. Does your player use any special equipment?

Sure, but I'll keep that in secret as I'm going to write down a book about my wonderful career once I'll get in the hall of fame. Every detail will be described precisely. 

[Hogan 1,423]

1. Will Trunov become a VHLM legend and put up some of the best goalie stats ever?

2. Will the Lynx put up 120+ points. A rare feat in the VHLM.

3. Will Harrington and Petan Jr both stay at the top of their positions this season?

4. How do you personally feel about your players performance?

5. What is the next step in improving your player?

6. What do you consider a succes this season, personal or for the team.

[Garsh 1,192]

1. Will Trunov become a VHLM legend and put up some of the best goalie stats ever?

Definitely seems like he is going to have an incredible season.

 

2. Will the Lynx put up 120+ points. A rare feat in the VHLM.

I think this is within the realm of possibility.  We have a good start on it but can't get complacent.

 

3. Will Harrington and Petan Jr both stay at the top of their positions this season?

Yeah they are on fire at the moment, and have incredible chemistry together.

 

4. How do you personally feel about your players performance?

I'm just doing back up duty but I have had some good games so, pretty good I would say.

 

5. What is the next step in improving your player?

I am going to work on my skating.

 

6. What do you consider a succes this season, personal or for the team.

With how things are going so far, anything less than the cup would be a disappointment.

[Hogan 1,423]

1. How did your player celebrate Halloween?

[qripll 502]

1. Will Trunov become a VHLM legend and put up some of the best goalie stats ever?

He will for sure. No matter what happens, Trunov is ahead of every goalie in the league. He has ebough games left to go above .933 and make the history. 

2. Will the Lynx put up 120+ points. A rare feat in the VHLM.

I strongly believe it is possible! We are on fire and if we keep the pace, we will make the dream come true. 

3. Will Harrington and Petan Jr both stay at the top of their positions this season?

We have such a great team and both Harrington and Petan are surrounded by great teammates. Chemistry is one another level, they feel each other with eyes closed on the ice. Poetry in motion! 

4. How do you personally feel about your players performance?

Should've been better! I wanna be the best at everything, still that's not enough. It's about being better than I was yesterday. That's how I am going to bring Ottawa the cup. 

5. What is the next step in improving your player?

Biography has came out, so now I have more spare time to practice on my agility and sizing. There is a plenty of work and I am into it as much as I can. 

6. What do you consider a succes this season, personal or for the team.

Trunov breaks the VHLM record for save percentage, Ottawa wins the cup. That's the only way I suppose the success is.

[Garsh 1,192]

1. How did your player celebrate Halloween?

Just chilled, no one visits Doom's home on Halloween.

 

2. Whats the best candy?

I prefer Reese's and Twix.

 

3. Grape offered you trick or treat and you chose trick. What did he do to/give you?

I don't think i can talk about that on the forums.

 

4. What was the cause of the Lynx's cold streak?

We are saving our energy for playoffs (that is what I am telling myself anyway).

 

5. Are we back? Or are we going to struggle again?

We are so over, so that we can be so back later.

 

6. Who are you voting for in the upcoming election? (Baozi vs Fresco 2)

I am going to abstain from voting (and then complain later).

[qripll 502]

1. How did your player celebrate Halloween?

I practiced hard while everyone was celebrating. That's my kind of celebration.

2. Whats the best candy?

Mom's cookies. Or something else that is sweet and made with all the love.

 

3. Grape offered you trick or treat and you chose trick. What did he do to/give you?

Retire my jersey as I am already the greatest goalie who played for Ottawa!

 

4. What was the cause of the Lynx's cold streak?

Actually, it was my fault. I feel that I underperformed last week and to be honest it is like an evil surprise to me as well. We'll be back soon 

 

5. Are we back? Or are we going to struggle again?

Not yet. Trust the process! As soon as Trunov hit 303 tpe, bet your house on Ottawa winning the playoffs this tear 

 

6. Who are you voting for in the upcoming election? (Baozi vs Fresco 2)

MY candidate is Rory! I don't see anyone but him

[Mr Bohannan 116]

1. How did your player celebrate Halloween?

Sat at home and ignored all the door bells...

 

2. What's the best candy?

Peanut M&M's

 

3. Grape offered you trick or treat and you chose trick. What did he do to/give you?

He traded me back to Saskatoon!

 

4. What was the cause of the Lynx's cold streak?

Me not being here yet!

 

5. Are we back? Or are we going to struggle again?

Nah, we back baby! Winning onwards only!

 

6. Who are you voting for in the upcoming election? (Baozi vs Fresco 2)

Not into voting, so none...

[Hogan 1,423]

1. Did you expect the team to make a trade?

2. How do you think the acquisition of Sarkanis will affect the team?

3. How did your player welcome Sarkanis to the team?

4. Should the Ottawa Lynx get a mascot? What would we name it?

5. Whats a rule you wish you could add to the VHL?

6. How excited are you for us to get to playoffs in a few weeks?

[Garsh 1,192]

1. Did you expect the team to make a trade?

Yeah, we started off hot and have really fallen off, it makes sense to try to bolster the group and shake things up a bit.

 

2. How do you think the acquisition of Sarkanis will affect the team?

Hopefully proide more evenness across the lines, as well as being a better contributor than a bot.

 

3. How did your player welcome Sarkanis to the team?

Doom formally invited them to gain citizenship in Latveria.

 

4. Should the Ottawa Lynx get a mascot? What would we name it?

Yeah we should get a Lynx and name it Leo.

 

5. Whats a rule you wish you could add to the VHL?

I duno, there is nothing that is jumping out to me.

 

6. How excited are you for us to get to playoffs in a few weeks?

Excited, hopefully we pick up the game play and show our true potential.

1. Did you expect the team to make a trade?

To be honest I have no idea if the team plans to trade someone or not.

2. How do you think the acquisition of Sarkanis will affect the team?

I hope it will be a positive effect, but we will see how things role out.

3. How did your player welcome Sarkanis to the team?

I haven't been for days, but I hope Ottawa gave him a warm welcome.

4. Should the Ottawa Lynx get a mascot? What would we name it?

Yeah, get a mascot that looks like a lynx, but I have no idea what to call it.

5. Whats a rule you wish you could add to the VHL?

I have no idea what rules should be added because I believe most of the rules are decent in the first place.

6. How excited are you for us to get to playoffs in a few weeks?

I'm pretty happy we're doing this well, but I really hope we do well in the playoffs.

 

[qripll 502]

1. Did you expect the team to make a trade?

That was a rumor that I trusted. We are one of the best team in the league and chasing the cup obviously requires some moves to be better. 

2. How do you think the acquisition of Sarkanis will affect the team?

I witnessed his great VHLE debut season and I'm pretty happy we got him. He is awesome two-way winger and super effective along the ice. 

3. How did your player welcome Sarkanis to the team?

I bought him a ticket to the theatre. We are professionals and are lack of some cool and uncommon activities and hobbies. Hopefully, it will appeal to him and he'll buy a  season pass in front of the stage. It is a great way to relax and wash your mind after tough loses.

4. Should the Ottawa Lynx get a mascot? What would we name it?

I thought we already had one! Nevertheless, we are cool enough to have two! I'd create female mascot "Alena". 

5. Whats a rule you wish you could add to the VHL?

Delete restricted zone for goalies. Let them play everywhere.

6. How excited are you for us to get to playoffs in a few weeks?

We are actually. But it is just a one step and we are going for the cup. 

[Corco 1,242]

1. Did you expect the team to make a trade?

Yes, I did. We started off very hot to begin the season, but have cooled off immensely and are sort of floundering in the standings right now. We absolutely needed scoring help.

2. How do you think the acquisition of Sarkanis will affect the team?

I think Sarkanis will drastically improve our offense, which has gone very cold in the 2nd half of the season. It felt like we went through a stretch where we were getting shut out every other game.

3. How did your player welcome Sarkanis to the team?

Neutron welcomed him to the team by showing Sarkanis his vintage duck figurine collection.

4. Should the Ottawa Lynx get a mascot? What would we name it?

Yes, and it should be a massive, 30-foot tall animatronic Mallard.

5. Whats a rule you wish you could add to the VHL?

Not necessarily a rule, but I wish that the VHL was stricter/more stringent on what content automatically gets 6 TPE. In a league that is already very luck-based with the sim, having an auto-6 sort of de-incentivizes people to put out quality content.

6. How excited are you for us to get to playoffs in a few weeks?

Decently excited, but I am more excited for the draft tbh.

[Hogan 1,423]

1. How badly are we going to BEAT the other teams in these playoffs?

2. How did you feel about your players performance this season?

3. How did you feel about the team in general?

4. What is one thing you would change about this season?

5. When do you think first real snowfall will happen? Or has it already?

6. Whats your favourite season?
