Ryuu Crimson Press Conference

[SlapshotWrangler 864]

3) Right now definitely Seattle. I mean, yeah they're first in the standings. They have been really strong and have done really well.

4) I would say faceoffs. I mean, I know I shouldn't work on it much but if our center is thrown out and I have to step in, well, we're dead. Other than that, I would have to say my checking. I was known for my checking but now that everyone is way bigger. Well. I'm dead.

5) Cooked with the chicken still inside. (That's what we call Balut)

1.) Do you wish you were getting more playing time, or are you happy that the team is winning?

2.) Do you think Riga will make a Championship run this season?

3.) Who do you think is your toughest competition this season?

4.) What is currently the weakest part of your game?

5.) How do you like your eggs?

 

[Tagger 2,722]

1) Despite being selected in the second round, you are currently 4th in TPE out of the players who were in your draft in TPE, is there any player from your draft you are surprised to be ahead of in TPE?

2) Rylan Peace has a very similar story to yourself, a high TPE earning winger drafted by Riga in the second round, currently playing for Saskatoon and looking to make the jump to the VHL in S64, you excited to play with Peace next season?

3) As a VHL rookie yourself, who do you think has the best chance at the rookie of the year trophy this year?

4) If the Legion don't wind up making the playoffs after trading two firsts and extras to do so, is that meme worthy?

5) Who do you think will win the Sponsors Shield this season?

[SlapshotWrangler 864]

1. Definitely everyone who was drafted before me and has less TPE. Too lazy to list them but I am very surprised.

2. Hell yeah! I remember playing with him in Halifax and he was great. We scored goals together and I loved playing with him in Halifax, and I hope I can play alongside him one day.

3. Despite the fact that Julian now has the lead in points, I would say Vaydar Odinsson. He has been great.

1. Trump and Trudeau have been summoned to fight to the death. Who wins and what's their weapon of choice? Please make me laugh.

2. What stinks when living and smells good when dead? (riddle time, baby)

1. Trump uses Mexicans and Trudeau uses his father, the almighty Pierre Trudeau. Trump as he deports the Mexicans sends them running Trudeau's direction as they go back to Mexico, trampling the Canadian leader to death. Pierre then uses his mighty powers to push one brick out of the wall Trump built between Mexico and America. The brick, despite it being in the middle causing it's removal to still let the wall remain stable and symmetrical, somehow falls over on Trump, severely injuring him. Sadly, Pierre used all of his life force to remove that one brick, and he dies. Trump claims victory, but little does he know Kim Jong-Un uses his most powerful weapon, the red button, and nukes Trump killing Trump. Kim Jong-Un wins. Because Asians always win in the end.

2. I've actually heard this one before, it's bacon.

3. Hockey - Calgary Flames

5. Calgary for sure. Especially since they have made it to the finals a lot these past few years.

1. Are you satisfied with your performance so far?

4. Your opinion on changes in trivia (no PM's anymore)? 

5. Am I too inactive in discord?

6. Why did you stop memeing Davos?

7. Do you have good relationship with Glade despite memeing his team?

8. Your reaction of me giving an active prospect Baillie to Davos?

1. No, not really.

2. Yeah, probably. He's been a good assister and goal scorer in the minors, probably even better than Twinger, and he has been great fir me so far.

3. Well, maybe, it depends on my real life time frame. I rarely make them because of the time it takes sometimes but I hope to pull it off.

6. A 2003 Honda Civic.

7. Maybe defensive scoring is a weakness? I think we're a solid team but sometimes we can't score as much as we should. Our strengths are our goaltending. Kallis has been awesome and so has our backup.
