Week Ending 6/18 Presser for the boys! Answer all 6 for 2 capped TPE! 

1) The draft has concluded! How do you feel the Aces did in the draft?
-Pretty great. Getting my start in the league and looking forward to it!
2) Staying on the topic of the draft, if you were selected/traded during the draft, how do you feel about joining the Aces in their quest for glory in S89?

-Looking forward to glory questing  Team is helpful and I'm looking forward to growing with them.
3) Team Europe has won gold in the WJC! What do you think about the elite goaltending we saw from Jeffrey Blake coming to play for Las Vegas this season?

-Elite is elite. Sure sounds like it will elevate the team (and make my job as a D-Man easier!)
4) Juan Ceson, after a recent rule change, is no longer allowed to play in the VHLM. How does his loss on the blueline effect the team?

-Who?
5) What are your plans with your career moving forward? VHLE All-Star? VHL Super-Star? Career Ace even?

-Well, being very new, I think "Career Ace" is probably the only thing I'm ready to commit to.
6) Our goal this season is obviously winning the Cup. With this off-season we've had, how do you feel our chances are at this goal?

-LET'S ******* GO!

1. HYPE HYPE HYPE

2. Great job! I knew it would turn out right. On the way to the cup hopefully!

3. McDonalds, Chick-fil-a, Subway. No particular order

4. Probably a lottery ticket. I mean cmon its Vegas

5. Verhault has been pretty consistent point wise, but I think with a low shot percentage he is underperforming in the offensive zone. Being top 2 in both hits and shots blocked is well expected. 

6. Gas for my car

1. I DO NOT NEED TO PREPARE HENCE THE SEASON HAS BEGUN AND JH DEWBERRY KAHLIN IS COOKING UP A STORM ON AND OFF THE ICE - EVEN THOUGHT I JUST GOT TRADED. 

2. WE WANT SOME MORE PRESS CONFERENCES AND SOME FUN POSTS IDK. CHEF DEWBERRY KNOWS NOT WHAT THE AGM SHOULD BE DOING, HE IS A MERE PLAYER MORTAL IN THIS SIMULATION

3. CHEF DEWBERRY WOULD BE A CHEF BECAUSE THATS WHAT HE IS. HE COOKS, HE TOASTS, HE FEASTS, AND HE DINES. HE IS A GOD IN THE CULINARY WOLRD AND ALL SHALL BOW DOWN. 

4. OBVIOUSLY SINCE DEWEBERRY KAHLIN IS A MICHELIN CHEF HE WOULD HAVE A FINE DINING EXPERIENCE ON THE RESORT CALLED "ROLLING THE DICE" WHERE PEOPLE WOULD ROLL THE DICE AND GET THE FOOD BASED OFF NUMBER COMBINATIONS. YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU GONNA GET. 

5. JH DEWBERRY KAHLIN FAVORITE TEAM IS ANIMALS HE HAS TASTED AND COOKED WITH. MOSTLY CATS, SUCH AS THE PREDATORS AND PANTHERS. HE LIKES TO EAT CATS SOMETIMES AS A CULINARY ADEVENTURE.

LAS VEGAS ACES PRESS CONFERENCE

 

1. The Juan Ceson Hotel (official hotel partner of Juan Ceson's Las Vegas Aces and home of many of the team staff and players) has recently renovated its number one dining spot, the Bo Johansson Buffet, and replaced it with Dustin's Diner, a traditional American style diner with no buffets in sight. What are your thoughts on this? Would you prefer to have the old buffet back?

2. It is the AGM Juan Ceson's birthday this week. How should we celebrate his birthday and what gift will you be getting him?

3. Chef Dewberry (official chef of Juan Ceson's Las Vegas Aces) has been seen at many Aces games this season and is perhaps the team's biggest fan. What are you a huge fan of and why?

4. Do you play/watch any other sports other than ice hockey?

5. Juan Ceson is going on vacation this week to Scotland. Don't worry though as his assistant Jean-Paul Goatier will be taking over his AGM responsibilities while he is away. Where is somewhere you would most like to visit or your favourite place you have been that you would recommend to someone else?

6. How can we get more people to engage with the team in the locker room or on the forum (e.g. answering these questions!!!)?

Watch this boy. The Mighty Ice Wizard will answer these questions.

 

1 - Hey folks I'm the new Assistant to McLovin and it's a pleasure to be here.  I'll take some time to get to know you fine people!  Has your season gone as you had thought so far?

I've exceeded expectations on a personal level greatly. Sixteen consecutive shutouts; setting a new league record (me when I lie)

 

2 - The playoff race is pretty tight at the minute in our division, do you think we can take on our competition?

Yeah. Wait what? Oh you mean in a game?

 

3 - Do you have more of a sweet tooth or prefer salty snacks?

Salty. Like potato chips. Mmm yummy.

 

4 - We have a lot of home games to play down the stretch.  Do you like to spend some time on the strip doing Vegas strip things?

I'm way too locked in for that tbh. Catch me reading like a book or something.

 

5 - When you get to the big leagues, what's the first thing you're splurging on when you get your first paycheck?

I don't want to go to the big leagues. Scary. 

 

6 - Are you a fan of line juggling when there's struggling?  Or do you prefer to stick to a stable lineup?

I'm usually on the bench anyways. I'm basically like an assistant coach at this point.
