The Come Up: Bo Axelsson's Bio [1/2]

[Da Trifecta 1,896]

Childhood:

 

Bo Axelsson, long lost cousin of Theo Axelsson, comes from a wealthy family. His parents Leif and Helena are two of the biggest lawyers in all of Stockholm and they get all of the high profile people when it comes to cases. They have been in business for around twenty years now and they have provided Bo with everything he needed when it came to hockey. Bo was enrolled in hockey camps since he was five years old and he has loved being a part of them. Each year he came back ready to play and he lived for the fact that he would get to learn more about the game. It was something about his love for the game that seemed to be apparent to his coaches. They took notice to his work ethic and he desire to win and succeed and they offered to give him separate private lessons on top of his normal camp. Now his parents, being wealthy, really had no issue with the pricing because their son meant more to them than any amount of money. They knew how happy he was when he played hockey and they just wanted to see him happy. So he ended up starting private lessons and it was there that his skills would end up elevating beyond those in his camp.

 

Upbringing:

 

Once he got to middle school, Bo would end up joining the school's hockey team. During tryouts he would end up stealing the show as he easily outplayed his soon to be teammates. He wanted to put everyone on notice of his skills and his talent. It was apparent that he would end up on the team after just one practice. His coaches were raving about his raw talent and his ability to understand plays. It was apparent of his playing that he wasn't going to be a defender. His coaches had slotted him in to try out the center spot during practices for the next few days. When they found out that he lost nearly all of his face offs, they optioned him to winger and it would be here that he would get to do the most damage. He went on to set records at his school and he would end up being one of the best to have ever played there. His career was just starting to flourish and he was about ready to move on up to the high school talent level. All he had to do was wait for the summer to end before he would be heading to high school.

 

High School:

 

From the moment he stepped onto the high school campus, he had already built a name for himself. Members of the varsity team had already known who he was and they knew he would be joining them soon. His talent alone allowed him to bypass junior varsity and he had his spot available for him on the varsity squad from his first day of freshman year. High school went by rather quick like for him and he was on the varsity squad for all four years. The team has won two championships during that period and again records were set by Bo. He has the record for more points in a season, most points in school history, most goals in a season and most goals in school history as well. He also sits in second place in hits and there are no more games left. It sucks that he won't get the chance to set another record but he is ready to go pro. Sure there have been talks of college but he isn't sure that he wants to go there. He has the talent to just jump right up to the pro game and he is ready to make the leap.

 

VHL Outlook:

 

Currently it's pretty far away but Bo Axelsson hasn't given thought about where he wants to be drafted. He hasn't even played a game yet in the minor league yet and he is just planning on where he will land first of all. He has a few teams on his radar and his is hoping that he can get some decent money to be put into his bank account. He has plenty of bills that will be coming up and he intends on moving as quick as he can. He doesn't plan to buy a house but he will be renting an apartment while he is in the minors. He will be spending half a season with one VHLM team before he enters the VHLM draft after the season ends. Then he will end up moving again and he will end up renting another place until he gets drafted to a VHL team. Below is a list of all the teams and how Bo feels about them.

 

Calgary Wranglers: Now I know things haven't been so good with the franchise and Bo's agent, but he doesn't care about that. He holds no ill will towards the current GM and he wouldn't mind playing there. It might be convenient too as the Calgary Wranglers should be rebuilding real soon.

 

HC Davos Dynamo: Things between the Dynamo management and Bo's agent aren't exactly good and I don't think the Dynamo even have a pick where they could grab Bo anyways. This team is soaring to the top and it would be nice but I can't see it happening.

 

Helsinki Titans: Now Bo's agent recently represented a player that played for the franchise and while it may be too early to go back, it's a pro team and he wants to leave his options open. So he would be alright going there.

 

New York Americans: Sure would be interesting landing here. I think the team is currently trying to rebuild and it would be a perfect spot to land. The team don't really have any franchise players.

 

Quebec City Meute: One franchise that probably won't be taking Bo and it's a good thing.

 

Riga Reign: Another franchise that probably can't get Bo but would be fun to play there.

 

Seattle Bears: Would be the most weird place to play but it's not a no.

 

Toronto Legion: One franchise Bo would love to land. Let's hope this is a huge possibility.

I don't think a lot of time and effort was put into the player biography. There were a lot of grammatical mistakes, and no pictures to go along with your story.

@Trifecta He's right though, it definitely could use some pictures. It's just a big wall of text with no bolding of the headings or anything!

The VHL has gone soft with that regard on articles and such, why should it be different here?

Because it's easy as fuck to add in a picture and bold some headings, and I expect that much from you as a veteran.

 

With newer guys I can look past it and suggest it in their next medias.
