For week ending 2/2 Answer 3 questions for 1 TPE, or all 6 for 2 TPE!

1. Were there any moves you expected to see prior to the trade deadline?

2. what stats are most important to you in terms of how your player preforms?

3. What's your favorite VHL conspiracy theory or are there any that you want to share?

4. Are you watching the Superbowl this year if so who are you rooting for? 

5. what was your favorite class in school?

6. What's your favorite sauce for wings?

1. Not really. It would have been hard to make any significant moves without probably mortgaging the future.

2. As an offensive player obviously points and power play points but I also am looking at plus/minus and blocked shots.

3. Ah, can't think of one

4. Probably not watching but it'd be cool to see the Chiefs get a three-peat.

5. Geography, Band, Computer Science

6. Dry salt and pepper

1. Among defensemen, I was 9th in scoring (51 points), 3rd in shots (195) and T-2nd in powerplay assists (17). I was T-4th in powerplay assists and T-7th in powerplay points in the league.  

2. The Las Vegas Aces

3. I'll pick the surprise teams - Toronto and Las Vegas. More logical choices: Riga and Halifax.

4. Canucks runs to the Stanley Cup Finals, 1994 and 2011 

5. Not really

6. Play a few (drums, piano, bit of trumpet, mandolin, bass). Would like to learn guitar better, steel drums, uilleann pipes.

1. Winning the Cup obviously was the best moment but a couple other favorites was beating Miami in the first round when we were complete underdogs and my Game 5 performance when I had 2 goals and assisted on the OT winner to give us the 3-2 win and series lead.

 

2. Awesome! This is my fourth Founder's Cup and second with Vegas and it never gets old. This one was especially sweet as it was more unexpected.

 

3. Have to say OCO. Our defense was good but 5 shutouts?? Two shutouts in series clinching games?? C'mon, it's a no brainer. Satou was brilliant as well but I think OCO has the edge.

 

4. Enjoying the win but refocusing and getting trained up for next season.

 

5. Ceson first as the captain but then OCO.

 

6. Let's go European! Italy, Portugal, something like that.

 

Probably my last LV presser for a while. Thanks @Big_Dyl for all the great questions!
