HELLO LAS VEGAS! PRESSER FOR THE WEEK ENDING 19TH.

 

1. With Poptart stepping down, how do you feel with the new addition that is @Proto?

 

2. Do you feel comfortable with the new locker room?

 

3. Do you have any line suggestions?

 

4. Do you feel that Proto at the helm can change our winning and losing?

 

5. Do you have any team award suggestions?

 

6. How many points do you want to have at the end of the season? (Keep it realistic)

 

1. Nothing but good words to say about my man, Proto. I'm confident he'll do a fine job, and I'm really excited to get to interact with him, both as a player and rival GM.

 

2. New locker room? Apart from some channels being called differently, it's not so new, now.

 

3. Push me down the lineup, I'm bad for the team. We've actually not been too bad since Proto sent me down on the 2nd line. GG.

 

4. Nothing against Poptart, but things really were not going so well. Not saying Proto is the prophet that will save us, but it really can't be worse. Maybe his lines will click more.

 

5. Most underwhelming player.

 

6. I really thought I'd have a shot for like 70 goals, 30 assists, 100 points. Now, 70 points and I'd be happy, honestly.

HELLO LAS VEGAS! PRESSER FOR THE WEEK ENDING 19TH.

 

1. With Poptart stepping down, how do you feel with the new addition that is @Proto? I guess we will see what happens, it's always an adjustment when you have new management coming in and changing things around.

 

2. Do you feel comfortable with the new locker room? It's interesting, not sure what happened with letting anyone have an invite.

 

3. Do you have any line suggestions? Dumping the inactives and pushing the actives up

 

4. Do you feel that Proto at the helm can change our winning and losing? We shall see, we had been really underachieving, maybe the change will give us a boost

 

5. Do you have any team award suggestions? Best comment in the locker room

 

6. How many points do you want to have at the end of the season? (Keep it realistic) Originally I was hoping for about a point per game, so I'll keep the same goal.

1. Adamant, and helpful!
2. I have no problems!
3. Yes, clone me twice and give me my own line lol
4. So far not much has changed but we did have a good last sim!
5. Most Helpful?
6. 2+ PPG!

Appreciate the questions as always!

 

1. Honestly, I'd love for you to stay

2. I think he makes changes to spark the team, and they've produced results 

3. I'm always confident in our ability to win

4. Sure, they're all good guys, it's nice to have more folks around

5. I think I always have room for improvement, but I'm not doing too shabby

1. Who do you want to replace me as the AGM?

 

No real feelings, not sure who is out there frankly.

 

2. Now that Proto has been here a while, who do you feel about him?

 

Putting up numbers, good looker room guy. Get's a good score from me.

 

3. We have started to win a lot, do you think we can continue that winning pace?

 

Our defense is starting to pick this up, and I am as well. We've had a number of games where we've allowed fewer than 15 shots. Each one of those that we lose, is on me, so as I improve we'll keep getting better.

 

4. Are you happy with the new friends in our locker room?

 

We've got a great thing going. It's been a great intro to the VHLM.

 

5. Do you feel that you are performing up to standards?

 

I'm getting there. Coming in I had a lot of growing to do, but things are progressing well.

 

6. Does the arena need any upgrades?

 

Someone needs to get the slot machines out of the locker room. I know it's Vegas, but come on!

2. I think he's been great, we are winning more with the changes he made.

3. As long as we keep progressing, I think we can continue winning.

4. Yes, it's a good time. 

5. I am doing very well right now, and I think I can continue this production.

6. Yeah I agree that those bathrooms need some work.

1. I expected you to stay and I think you have done a good job, I hope you re-apply and get the job permanentally.

 

2. I think Proto is a good GM because of his influence in discord.

 

3. I would certainly hope so, our roster is better than where we are in the standings. 

 

4. Yes, our team is a great mix of returning players and first gens.

 

5. Yeah, I am pretty happy with how Zod is playing. I wish he could block more shots though. Tell me how he has 62 SBs in 58 games in the VHLM but in the WJC he has 15 SBs in 3 games? 

 

6. The arena is a beauty. Our logo though? Needs an upgrade.

6. Probably!

1.) The aces sit in 5th place, did you think we would finish this high? expect less?, More?

Honestly, I thought we could push higher, but perhaps that was just my rookie naivite. We're still in the hunt and amassing TPE.

2.) The Aces have 4 players at 250 TPE  @Proto @ng1291 @Pengu @McWolf who goes first

 

I assume the needs of the drafter will decide.

 

3.) Is @Proto a Boomer?

 

If you're talking about booming slappers then year!

4.) Should @Proto shave his head if Vegas wins the cup?

 

We don't want him scaring the kids!

5.) Peanut Butter and Jelly, or Grilled Cheese?

 

Grilled cheese every time, no doubt.

6.) Most Underrated player on the Aces? 

 

I gotta look to Remy Moreau. Second year guy putting up a ton of hits, and a strong plus/minus.

1. I expected better especially after a great start, but it's alright. This year is unbelievably competitive. In a normal year, we would probably be top 3 at least.

 

2. McWolf is a surefire first overall pick pretty much. 

 

3. Proto is a boomer but we have had bigger boomers on this site

 

4. No, he should shave the Vegas logo in the back of his head.

 

5. Recently I've been having grilled cheese for lunch but I think I like Peanut Butter and Jelly better. It's a really tough decision though.

 

6. I'd have to say Jeff Blaze, he's putting up tons of points for us.

1. I thought we'd finish higher than this, this can't be what was envisioned when we started the season.

2. McWolf. Guy is a proven tpe whore

3. Sure.

4. Sure.

5. Grilled cheese all the way. Even better when you put some ham or bacon on there too. Make it all classy like. Yum. Making me hungry

6. I'll go with Remy Moreau. Solid, solid teammate, not afraid to do the dirty work out there. Real team guy

1. Definitely thought we would do better than that. But hey, all that matters is that we made it to the Spring Dance. Now we get to show the cards up our sleeves.

2. ng1291 went first. He was drafted two season ago.

3. Most definitely. Team boomer!

4. He should do something dumb. Like bet thousands of dollars on virtual marble races.

5. Grilled cheese. Easy.

6. We rarely talk about the defensemen, but I think our top 4 did a great job this whole season. Some have tons of blocked shots, some score as much as our forwards. They deserve some praise.

4. Yes.

1. I expected us to finish higher, but I think we can still win in this place. 

2. I already was drafted.

3. I have no clue. 

4. I think that'd be a great idea. 

5. Both are great, but I'll go with grilled cheese.

6. Jeff Blaze put up some numbers, so I'll go with him.

What's up everyone! It's your friendly neighborhood GM coming at you with some hot press conference questions! Be sure to answer all 6 for some easy TPE!

 

1. What is your favorite thing about the city of Vegas?

The food! You can get whatever you want at any time of day!

2. Looking back, who would you make the 3 captains knowing the results of the S71 regular season?

I think our progression in that area was probably right. Results aren't what make a captain.

3. What's your social security number player number and why?

31, it's what they gave me as a kid, and I never had a problem.

4. Link us to a picture of what you think the Team Pet should be!

5. Who's your roommate during road games?

As a goaler, my gear is my roommate. You gotta see how much stuff I need.

6. Which corporate sponsor would you like to see on our arena?

Nokia! sure they aren't cool, but they're a good Nordic company.

 

[Matt_O 897]

1. My favorite part about Vegas is the weird people you see on the streets. One time I was walking on the sidewalk and this very tall black guy comes running past me in nothing by an american flag thong. (this is a true story) I also saw girls with paint on clothes taking a picture with a 90 year old man in a wheelchair.

 

2. I think it was three good selections.

 

3. My old players number and the number I use when I play hockey in real life is 22, but I cant use it again. Now, I'm 17, because it fits Zod.

 

4. An Iguana.

 

5. Randy Marsh, my fellow defensive partner.

 

6. We need an ad for the Kryptonian steroids Zod has been taking, they work!

2. Looking back, who would you make the 3 captains knowing the results of the S71 regular season? Me, McWolf and Remy 

3. What's your social security number player number and why? 39. Number of the worlds greatest hockey player and my childhood idol, Doug Weight 

4. Link us to a picture of what you think the Team Pet should be! A dragon 

5. Who's your roommate during road games? I’m not sure, maybe General Zod

6. Which corporate sponsor would you like to see on our arena? Some kind of casino ad, maybe one for the entire strip

1. How has your training regimen changed with what's going on in the world now?

 

Luckily a lot of my work is high intensity cardio and flexibility, so I'm able to train in my flat for the most part.

2. Who's got your vote for team captain this season and why?

 

I'm hoping to have some continuity from last season.

3. What skill have you improved the most this offseason?

 

Nothing out of the ordinary, putting a little focus on bulking up, but realistically there's room to grow everywhere.

4. Returning players, who are you most excited to play with and why? Or new draftees, which Las Vegas vet are you looking forward to playing with the most and why?

 

I had a great time in the locker room and I'm loooking for another season of that camaraderie.

5. In your eyes, what would the Las Vegas Aces mascot look like?

 

A giant anthropomorphic playing card.

6. What would be your biggest goal heading into the beginning of the season?

 

Looking forward to getting my save percentage up.

 

[SuicidalNomad 3]

1. With Poptart stepping down, how do you feel with the new addition that is @Proto?

 

Well, I've only just started in the league, so I'm the last person to ask, but he's been nothing but welcoming to me, so I have full confidence that he's the guy fir the job.

 

2. Do you feel comfortable with the new locker room?

 

I don't feel comfortable with 15 guys in their underwear, not really. Hahaha!

 

3. Do you have any line suggestions?

 

I've yet to inspect the lines, so I'll get back to you.

 

4. Do you feel that Proto at the helm can change our winning and losing?

 

From what I've seen from this organization, we have the full package. Nothing can stop us from winning the prize.

 

5. Do you have any team award suggestions?

 

Yeah, me, for Most Fly.

 

6. How many points do you want to have at the end of the season? (Keep it realistic)

 

2 million. Screw your realism.
