HC Davos Dynamo Press Conference

[zepheter 589]

1. Today is VHL Draft Day! What did you think about the prospect/scouting experience during your draft season personally?

Nothing special about it. One GM actually spoke to me. The GM that drafted me never said a word, but it all worked out in the end. 
 

2. What is one piece of advice you have for tonight’s draftees?

One (or more) rough season(s) doesn’t always mean you will be bad forever. Anything can happen in this league. It’s all about being at the right place at the right time. 

 

3. Are you a part of any offseason tournaments at the moment (whether it be player or GM)?

I used to get into all of that, but I’m basically just a clicker and a locker room guy at this point. Don't plan on being involved in all of that anymore. 
 

4. Which Davos player do you think has the best chance of surviving a zombie apocalypse and why?

I believe the better question is “which player and why is it Florida Man?” Florida men find ways to overcome the odds regardless of the circumstances. 

 

5. Have you ever met a pro hockey player before? If so, who was it?

Very briefly met Kane and Toews as they were leaving the United Center over ten years ago. It was surreal and it sucks I was so young. There’s so much more I would have said in that moment. 
 

6. If you follow March Madness, who do you predict to win the whole tournament?

I’ve been backing FAU for a decent amount of this tournament. They have some dawgs on that team. I wouldn’t be surprised if they won it all. 

[Otaznik 67]

1. Draft was a really nice and fun experience for me and i was really curious which team i will be drafted to.
2. Just enjoy the draft day, its just once in a career.
3. Not this time, so its a long waiting for a new season.
5. Actually i havent met any famous hockey player.
7. Maybe soccer? lol
8. A dog person for sure.

1: I'm trying out the Super Coach stuff, I think it'll be fun and give me a reason to pay attention to other teams around the league.

2: I think "Caffeine" by Jeff & Casey Lee Williams would be my choice. It's part of a soundtrack to a show I enjoy, it's got the wolf howl at the beginning going back to my characters Roots playing for the Istanbul Redwolves and it's a pretty upbeat song.

4: If we can include the JST in this I would say the Steel is very nice. But if not I don't think you can go wrong with the Istanbul Redwovles.

5: I do! My go-to name for my NHL Goalie Be A Pro was Leon Collberg and it helped influence my next player's name which (Unless it's stolen at some point) will be Lionel Collberg.

6: Yeah, I'm a big fan of the Maple Leafs. Lately, their play is not consistent which makes me a bit nervous but hopefully, they will clean everything up before the first round.

8: I don't mind Pineapple on Pizza but my preference is to not have it. I think pizza is good no matter what you put on it.

2. Is there any doubt? The TOS theme song, of course.

 

3. The league will be shut down due to an outbreak of syphilis. We will all be very embarrassed.

 

5. I'm considering S David Crosby or Brent Byrnes. Very memeable.

1: During my playing time I would consider Prague our biggest rival due to our recent playoff series against them.

2: I thought Losing Booberry and Siyan this off-season was going to impact the team a lot. But we've come out of the gate hot, Jake Thunder, Pete Mitchell and Lachlan Summers have all been very impressive.

4: I like to imagine some of the other players saying the "What do the Numbers mean?!" line from Call Of Duty Black Ops. So I'm gonna go with the nickname "Numbers"

6: Toronto Maple Leafs 100% they are my favorite team and always have a large number of fans despite what building they are in. Not only that but Mitch Marner and Auston Matthews are superstars In the league and are bound to do something amazing.

7: You know that trick where people cover their mouth with their hands and blow into them to make a farting sound? I can do that louder than anyone...

8: I have a Blood Bowl board game I have never played that my cousin gave me. It's kinda just taking up space but sometimes I use it as a hard surface while I'm writing down stuff.

[Ahma 1,443]

1. What VHL team would you consider to be Davos’ biggest rival?

Currently, Prague. Fake Purple. I've talked about this before on podcasts. Historical rival, Riga.

2. Three sims down, many more to go! How are you feeling about our performance so far? Any teammate stand out in particular to you?

Jokinen's performance so far has been below what I would have expected but it is very early. Summers has been fire!!!!

3. Which Davos player would come out victorious in an Easter egg hunt?

Florida Man probably, he has them 'florida man' superpowers

4. Does your player have a nickname? If so, what is it?

David "David" Jokinen lol

6. Which NHL team do you think would be most exciting to watch play live?  

Habs home game or Oilers for the McDavid show.

8. What's the most random object you have in your room?

A cheap replica three barrel flintlock pistol.

[Otaznik 67]

1. I think our biggest rival is Prague. 
2. We play really good so far, and who stand out? hmm Jake Thunder imo.
3. Florida Man for sure, he saw where they hid the eggs.
4. Just "S" because they cannot pronounce his name right.
6. Maybe Toronto or new team, Krakens
7. Nope, i dont have any hidden or unusual talent. Or i just havent find it yet
 

[Anthique 224]

1. What VHL team would you consider to be Davos’ biggest rival?

Prague, two teams in purple, who else haha!

 

2. Three sims down, many more to go! How are you feeling about our performance so far? Any teammate stand out in particular to you?

Not bad! Thuesday sim was really bad for us, but my production is shit for now. Thunder is still producing like crazy and our goalie Summers is doing really good too!

 

4. Does your player have a nickname? If so, what is it?

Some players call him Champy, shorter than the full last name and a reference to mushrooms in french.

 

6. Which NHL team do you think would be most exciting to watch play live?  

Probably Colorado. Many superstars in the team and they play an offensive system seing them live would be fun.

 

7. Do you have a hidden or unusual talent? 

Unfortunately no. Simple guy with a normal life and no particular talent.

 

8. What's the most random object you have in your room?

A box with a lot of souvenirs. Many things that probably should be in the garbage haha!

1: Banking it all this season to prepare for the next season. Though I would be lying if I didn't say I was tempted on upgrading more stats when I was struggling early this season.

2: I enjoy doing graphics. I'm not the best in the league at it but I feel like I get better with each one.

3: I like Discord, it's easier to talk with multiple people at once and I like to speak conversations in other locker rooms.

 

6: I'd like to see one like "VHL Duos" something that shows off the relationships between teammates.

7: Calgary Flames missing the playoffs despite being the "Clear Winners" of the Tkachuk trade at the start of the season.

8: A song I just found, only reason I listened to it was that it was by a band I listened to a few times. The song is called "Don't Hate Me - Bad Flower" it's decent I suppose but they have much better songs.

[Anthique 224]

1. How are you utilizing your TPE this season? Are you focusing on any attributes, or perhaps banking for depreciation?

Yes, I'm using them to get a little more rounded up. More offensive, defensive and physical. I will boost my offence this week.

 

2. What’s your favorite form of point task to do in the VHL? 

This one! Prefer to write a little something like an interview than a longer text.

 

3. Do you prefer using the forum or Discord?

I'm almost always on discord (probably too much for my own good lol) so easier to reach out.

 

5. Are you in either of the VHL’s affiliate leagues (SBA and EFL)? If so, what are the names of your players in those leagues?

Nope! I'm only in the SHL, and that's enough for me! With a dog and a baby on the way it will stay that way.

 

7. What was the biggest surprise in the NHL in your opinion this season?

Boston! Best team in history while I'm not sure I had team in playoffs lol

 

8. What was the last song you listened to?

Some rockabilly! The Baseballs - Umbrella. The Baseballs - Umbrella (official Video) - YouTube (You're welcome :))

 

[Otaznik 67]

1. Well i am trying to apply them equally. but soon i guess i will have to bank for depreciation too
2. I enjoy press conferences

5. No, i dont play in these.
6. Well Easter is behind us, so maybe something with spring or NHL play-offs
7. I guess Washington not making the play-offs

1. I am banking it all. I want to be a useful player through all the depreciation.

 

2. I like GFX because they're easy to do while I'm doing other things.

 

3. I think maybe I've posted four times on the forum when I wasn't given TPE for it. That should give you an idea.

 

5. Would you believe one of my EFL players is James Teekirque? The other is Jim Egan.

 

6. Prediction? For theme week? Can any man truly know the meaning of theme week, until theme week has known the meaning of a man?

 

8. "Fly" by Sugar Ray. I actually came up with a joke about it too, but now I can't remember what it was.
