1) We sit at 15-10-1 after week two. How are you feeling about the season thus far? We've really turned it on leading up to the halfway point, I'm very proud of this teams performance 
2) If you could improve one thing about STHS sim engine what would it be? I'm not a coder so I have no clue what I'd add to it
3) Who on the Titans do you believe finishes the season with the most goals? I'm putting my money on VV
4) What team swag does your player wear on off-days? Helsinki merch, all day every day
5) What is a locker-room pet-peeve of yours? Not having enough pink tape ?
6) If you had to switch favorite NHL teams who would you cheer for? If I wasn't a hardcore Avs fan, I'd be a hardcore Yotes or Canadiens fan

1) I'm so happy we are finally getting rewarded for all of our hard work.

2) I am not sure because our team is good right now.

3) We just need to relax and play our game.

4) I think Valterri is doing fantastic this year.

5) I think the Blues still have a good shot to repeat but it has been a crazy start for all teams.

6) I used to collect those little skateboard guys when I was little.

1) I’m so excited about the way our team has responded this season. 

2) Maybe get some prospects and add to our depth. 

3) We just need to play our game no matter where we’re at. 

4) I really think Spaz and VV have been pretty great. 

5) I will always pick my Blues. But Carolina looks solid too. 

6) I still collect hockey cards and I also collect movies and video games.

Beyond excited it's not everyday you can say you just came off of an 11 game win streak haha.

2) Where should we look to improve (if anywhere) as the deadline approaches?

I'm not sure for me we have a solid roster right now everyone's producing and working together.

3) 17-2-1 record at home for the Titans. What can we do to bring that same success to the road (11-10-0)?

Don't let their fans get to us, treat every away game as if we are home

4) Who has been an unsing hero for us this season?

Vaakaininen, coming up clutch with a hattrick and if I remember right 5 game winners.

5) Now that the play-in round has been completed, who is your stanley cup winner? Do you have a dark-horse pick?

Colorado, dark horse wise idk it's hard to tell when all the teams that were upseted playing like trash but maybe Arizona.

6) What is something you currently or used to collect?

Use to collect hot wheel cars now it's old and forgien coins or even both.

One hunnit out of one hunnit, to win 11 games in row is a top level achievement and something you cant realistically expect to happen too often, but Helsinki did it and that is great!
 

2) Where should we look to improve (if anywhere) as the deadline approaches?

I don´t know to be honest,  I guess the center position is one for the future since old man Hafkey has announced his retirement after this year.


3) 17-2-1 record at home for the Titans. What can we do to bring that same success to the road (11-10-0)?

Look for ways to bring the same intensity into the away games as we have at home, which might be impossible since our fans are so great and loud, they push us forward at home.


4) Who has been an unsing hero for us this season?

Spencer Elsby is one, 24 points and 11 of those are on the powerplay, he has the most points on the powerplay among all Titans players, so Elsby has been great despite being one of the younger players in the team.


5) Now that the play-in round has been completed, who is your stanley cup winner? Do you have a dark-horse pick?

Carolina, I hope they win it all!


6) What is something you currently or used to collect?

I had hockey cards back in the day, mostly Finnish league ones. I don´t know what happened to them, but I dont have them anymore :(

1) What a wild ride. 11 game win-streak last week. First place in the league. Describe to me your excitement level at this moment. The team has been playing otherworldly, it's simply unbelievable how good this team has been last week or so now.
2) Where should we look to improve (if anywhere) as the deadline approaches? It's hard to say a team can improve from an 11 game winstreak, I'm not sure disturbing that chemistry is the right move.
3) 17-2-1 record at home for the Titans. What can we do to bring that same success to the road (11-10-0)? Keep the fans and the energy of Helsinki with us, and carry momentum into stretches away from home.
4) Who has been an unsing hero for us this season? I doubt we'd go on a winstreak like we did without a goalie like Ross in net. He's been an absolute brick wall back there.
5) Now that the play-in round has been completed, who is your stanley cup winner? Do you have a dark-horse pick? Colorado absolutely, but if it weren't them, I could see Montreal pulling a Vegas and surprising everyone with a Cup win on the back of Price.
6) What is something you currently or used to collect? Used to collect Pokemon cards when I was younger, stopped around maybe 4th-5th grade

1) What a wild ride. 11 game win-streak last week. First place in the league. Describe to me your excitement level at this moment.

My excitement level right now is ... Honestly i dont know the english translation for the Finnish word describing my feelings of excitement as well as knowing that the 11 game win streak and being in 1st place means nothing until the playoffs. Thats where my mind is at right now. A coach of mine in Bantam AAA said something  that has always stuck with me "The regular season games are just extra practice on-top of our team practices, The regular season is just 72 "exhibition" games to use the skills and systems we learn in practice preparing for the real deal when the playoffs start!" . 
2) Where should we look to improve (if anywhere) as the deadline approaches?

If Helsinki were looking to improve at the deadline the only possible thing i could see the Titans doing would be possibly moving a younger goalie for future picks or a player in his last year maybe ? i really dont see any big moves coming soon.
3) 17-2-1 record at home for the Titans. What can we do to bring that same success to the road (11-10-0)?

I have been waiting for this one , Its easy ... Portion control with eating on road games out of the country, In Finland the restaurants and culture have adapted to a much healthier lifestyle being one of the countries with the longest estimated human lifespan. When on the road the boys tend to leave that mindset at home and over indulge in north american food filled with presevatives and artificial who knows what causing them to be much slower on the ice and when decision making due to treating their bodies poorly.
4) Who has been an unsing hero for us this season?

Unsung hero is hard for this Helsinki team !! With Hafkey,Draven,Summers, Ross, Vaak and Okada all above a point a game and all so consistent throughout the season , take those names out of the picture and it would have to be without a doubt be "The Italian Stallion" Jared Spaz  @Spaz Spaz has been amazing all season and his growth in production frrom last season is already incredible and his consistency is on the same level as the other six All-Star caliber players.

5) Now that the play-in round has been completed, who is your stanley cup winner? Do you have a dark-horse pick?

Arizona Coyotes, Brad Richardson scores game winner in game 7 OT , Finals MVP to Oliver Ekmann Larsson
6) What is something you currently or used to collect?

WIZARDS OF THE COAST POKEMON CARDS

If I have the money but I doubt it.

I think so, wins keep on coming and even away we have been able to win, so everything is in our own hands!


2) Trade deadline is Monday, not looking like we touch anything seeing how well the roster is gelling. Do you believe we have a cup contending roster as is?

I do, roster is clicking and on top of that we have excellent fans, which shows in the home record. All these areas and factors suggest that Helsinki has what it takes to win everything!


3) With the new consoles coming out in a few months do you plan to purchase one?

Some day perhaps, going to wait and see what the new consoles bring to the table and if there is some exclusive games or if they make some games look a lot better compared to ps4 pro.


4) Apple or Android?

Android! Nothing against Apple, but been using Androids mostly.


5) What music genre can you not stand or least like to listen to?

Hardcore heavy metal or whatever its called, all that screaming and growling


6) Name the last movie you watched?

Equalizer 2 perhaps

Answer 3 for 1 TPE or 6 for 2 TPE!

 

1) Time for the playoffs to begin! How confident are you feeling going into the post season?

As confident as I was in the begining of the season.

2) What is a statistical goal of yours for the playoffs?

Produce honestly, my player has 3 assists through out my career including VHLM.

3) Who do you believe makes it to the finals from the North American conference? (Seattle, Calgary, New York, Vancouver)

Seattle looks like the biggest threat but I wouldn't count new York or Calgary out either.

4) If you were to choose a Titan to shoot on a penalty shot who would it be?

Attribute wise me, actual skill wise probably Hafkey or Vaakanainen.

5) How many games do you see our first round series taking?

It's hard too tell especially with Toronto taking Calgary to game seven last season.

6) Who are you most surprised to have seen eliminated from the NHL playoffs?

My penguins, besides them probably the way Carolina lost.

Very, team is playing on a high level and is more than capable to go all the way. I think the roster is built for playoff hockey especially, so I'm expecting good things!


2) What is a statistical goal of yours for the playoffs?

I don't know, maybe score 5 goals and hope they help to turn some tight games into wins.


3) Who do you believe makes it to the finals from the North American conference? (Seattle, Calgary, New York, Vancouver)

Seattle is the easy answer, they have deadly offense and solid defense, but in the playoffs anything can happen, all those other teams have what it takes to cause a surprise or two.


4) If you were to choose a Titan to shoot on a penalty shot who would it be?

Draven has some pretty nice looking moves, not so flashy but they do look effective so he would be one.


5) How many games do you see our first round series taking?

I'll say six, going to be tight series, but Helsinki has enough talent to secure a cozy 4-2 series win!


6) Who are you most surprised to have seen eliminated from the NHL playoffs?

Washington perhaps, Ovechkin and other top guns being out is a surprise.

1) We are primed and ready for a long run.

2) I just want to keep scoring points and playing smart with the puck.

3) I'm going to say New York does.

4) I like Draven or Okada for the penalty shots.

5) It wont matter as long as we win.

6) I am most surprised to see my St.Louis Blues lose.
