HC Davos Dynamo Press Conference

Recommended Posts

1. How do you feel about your player’s performance so far now that we are around a week into sims?

Pretty solid, more than a point per game so far is a positive. And more importantly the 8-2 record, Davos coming out strong so far.

 

2. What goals do you hope to achieve by the time your current player’s career is over?

A title. That's really just it - it may sound a bit conceited, but I've gotten a lot of the MVPs and HOFs and stuff. But I haven't won a title since S61, and I really want another.

 

3. Should hybrid attributes also be applied to goalies?

I think it's time, more than anything just to shake up the meta. Having built a few good goalies, the build pattern is pretty obvious at this point and I'd like to see something new.

 

4. How long have you been a member of the VHL? Has anything drastically changed since then (besides the VHLE folding)?

Too long. Way too long. The sim league landscape is a very different place than it was in Season 32, but I think a lot has changed for the better, both in terms of activity and how people treat each other.

 

6. Which Davos player would you want on your zombie apocalypse survival team?

Is there another answer other than Grimgor? Give me a raging orc that can take down zombies with one check, and I'll just stay back here and be happy.

 

8. What is your favorite candy?

Big Reese's Pieces person over here. I love peanut butter in general, and something that mainlines peanut butter into my system can only be a positive.

1. How do you feel about your player’s performance so far now that we are around a week into sims?

So bad lol! But it was expected with the tpe I have. Will be a hard rookie season, but it is what it is.

 

2. What goals do you hope to achieve by the time your current player’s career is over?

Getting another Cup with Davos! Would be cool to get a defensive defenseman award.

 

3. Should hybrid attributes also be applied to goalies?

Not sure, I don't think so.

 

4. How long have you been a member of the VHL? Has anything drastically changed since then (besides the VHLE folding)?

Something around two years? Just after the hybrid attributes so no I don't think there was a big change.

 

5. What will your player be dressing up as for Halloween?

I'm watching Borderlands, so maybe like a psycho? Would be cool.

 

6. Which Davos player would you want on your zombie apocalypse survival team?

Ben Laas, big body who can help overcome danger.

6. Grimgor, easy

1. How do you feel about your player’s performance so far now that we are around a week into sims?

He's been pretty solid but for his TPA level he's not playing good enough. 

 

2. What goals do you hope to achieve by the time your current player’s career is over?

Well being his final season a damn cup is needed and it's now or ever. 

 

3. Should hybrid attributes also be applied to goalies?

Something needs to be done with goalies. I feel like my 1200 TPA goalie is performing the exact same as a 500 TPA goalie and that's just not right. These last few seasons have felt pretty sucky because of this. 

 

4. How long have you been a member of the VHL? Has anything drastically changed since then (besides the VHLE folding)?

Too long, February 10 2019 working on year number 6 and I was 15 years old when I joined. 

 

7. What is the most random fun fact you know?

Pretty common one but cows have 6 stomachs. 

 

8. What is your favorite candy?

I'm a lover of all candy but if I had to pick just 1 to eat for the rest of my life I'm honestly going to go with Twizzlers. I have no idea why but they are just fantastic wether you just opened the bag or they are over a year old and rock solid.

1. He’s still inconsistent but he’s turned it around the last couple sims

 

2. Try and break my older players career points mark

 

3. no goalies are fine how they are 

 

4. hybrid attributes becoming a thing I guess would be the biggest my first player was completely “meta” era and it was during my second player they made the switch 

 

5. He doesn’t really dress up for Halloween because there’s too many choices for him, but he likes to scare his teammates with anything from his collection of horror movie masks

 

8. Reese’s are my favorite but anything chocolate is acceptable

Over 100!

2. How do you think the league should further incentivize activity and content production from users?

Forum! Content! Forum! Content! I think so yes. Don't know how though, sorry :D

3. There are some amazing, funny, and interesting player names in the VHL. Do you have a favorite (that’s not your own)?

Art Vandeley, the famous architect! @Gustav 

4. What brand of equipment does your player use?

Funny you should ask, because I just wrote a vhl.com article last week about this! Bauer.

5. Do you believe enforcers will eventually be phased out of hockey?

Yes. Pure enforcers don't really exist in the NHL as it is.

you already know :D

Grimace.webp.fdcecebb8d606f5858bb197bfc96ec73.webp

Not sure about points but I'm predicting a nice, deep run!

2. How do you think the league should further incentivize activity and content production from users?

Hear me out, 2nd characters. More to come. 

3. There are some amazing, funny, and interesting player names in the VHL. Do you have a favorite (that’s not your own)?

The Board Game Clue on Skates was always a good one

4. What brand of equipment does your player use?

Jofa baby

5. Do you believe enforcers will eventually be phased out of hockey?

They already are really. Anybody that's remotely physical these days is just labeled a goon. 

6. What will your player be dressing as for Halloween?
Moo Deng - get nude, cover myself in gray matte body paint and then slather myself in baby oil after it dries for that eternally wet look.

1. Happy Halloween week, fellow Davids! As of Monday, we are third in the EU. How many points do you predict we will end up with by the end of the regular season?

Has to be better than last season, right? So I'll say it's a 99 point season - which given the strength of the top of the conference could still be third.

 

2. How do you think the league should further incentivize activity and content production from users?

It's a tough one, because I do think the league does a good job already. I kind of like the balance personally - I'd spend more efforts in recruiting new people than tweaking the formula for pre-existing ones.

 

3. There are some amazing, funny, and interesting player names in the VHL. Do you have a favorite (that’s not your own)?

I do like Logen Ninefingers, as somebody who's read through Joe Abercrombie's whole catalog. You have to be realistic.

 

5. Do you believe enforcers will eventually be phased out of hockey?

Depends on your definition. Dudes just looking for a fight? Probably. But somebody who's primarily out there to lay out big hits and intimidate still has a role.

 

7. Do you celebrate Halloween? Why or why not?

Now that I'm old and have a house I pass out candy. But that counts as celebrating Halloween to me - probably going to have some spiked cider, see a lot of fun costumes from kids and have a grand time.

 

8. How early is too early to listen to Christmas music?

You gotta wait until after Thanksgiving. It's more just a function of burning yourself out too early - good things come to those who wait.

In the VHL, Red and Spider Panda is really cool in my opinion!

Don't really have a preference except for my skate and my stick. CCM is my favorite one.

I don't see it in the near future. They will have to get rid of the hits like women hockey if they want it to happen.

 

6. What will your player be dressing as for Halloween?

I've watched Borderland not long ago and dress like a psycho would be cool.

 

7. Do you celebrate Halloween? Why or why not?

Yes, any other answer is wrong.

4. I use Bauer equipment for everything 

 

5.yes i believe they will, as the game gets faster and more skilled there’s less need for a true enforcer type 

 

7. I do celebrate Halloween always have in different ways not sure why though probably because my family always has

 

8. like a week before thanksgiving is acceptable to start before that it’s too early, same goes for decorating

3. There's a player in the league right now called Victory Hockey League. 

 

4. Oh, Giorgiy never shells out for brand name equipment. 

 

5. Are there an true enforcers left? Reaves, I guess? You need to be able to play even if you can fight. 

 

7. I do. I enjoyed the candy opportunity and I won't deny it to my kids. 

 

8. December 24.

1. Thoughts on this season’s theme “VHL Lore”?

 

I wasn’t really a fan of the theme but still ended out coming up with something stupid to write about to get my doubles week.  After all, TPE is all that matters!!

 

2. If you had to put all your remaining TPE into one attribute, what would it be?

 

I would have to say that it would be defense.  I need to get defense up to at least a 95 and preferably a 96 or 97.  Once I do that, I should be able to win a fight.

 

3. Historically, who do you think is Davos’ biggest rival?

 

Since I crashed your press conference for the 2 tpe, I’m going to say that Vancouver is your biggest rival.  And when Baby Jokinen @Ahma gets up to the big league, expect Bollos to seek him out!!

 

4. Besides Davos, which VHL/E/M team name/branding stands out most to you?

 

I like Bratislava’s logo and I also like Halifax logo.  And I would say besides Vancouver rather than saying besides Davos!

 

5. Are there any moves/additions we need to make for our squad as we approach the trade deadline?

 

It would be very nice if you would spread out all your good players to other teams and pick up a team full of inactive so you lose more games.

 

6. What jersey number does your player wear?

 

#22

 

7. In the Star Wars universe, would you be part of the Jedi Order or the Sith?

 

Neither, I would be an independent who wants to be left alone to roam the universe looking for hot galactic space mamas.

 

8. Are you an introvert or extrovert?

 

I am an introvert until I size up the situation and decide to be an extrovert.

1. Interesting, already have a good idea of what to write about!

 

2. Really don’t know, the one that makes me a better goalie.

 

3. Probably Riga followed by Prague 

 

4. Always really liked Philadelphia’s 

 

5. on the top of my head not really, the Eu is crazy close though.

 

6. 69

1. Thoughts on this season’s theme “VHL Lore”?

I thought it's VHLE lol I guess not. VHL Lore sounds like a good theme, wish we had @Victorfor the podcast again haha :D I'm not participating in theme week this season tho

2. If you had to put all your remaining TPE into one attribute, what would it be?

PC or DC. Defense for sure tho

3. Historically, who do you think is Davos’ biggest rival?

This guy @Thunder is stirring shit up here, so I guess I'm in it and here for it! Vancouver it is.

4. Besides Davos, which VHL/E/M team name/branding stands out most to you?

Cologne Express, the best brand after Davos. No contest!

5. Are there any moves/additions we need to make for our squad as we approach the trade deadline?

 

6. What jersey number does your player wear?

I hope I haven't said it already, 55 sounds good.

7. In the Star Wars universe, would you be part of the Jedi Order or the Sith?

If I had the capability to choose one, Sith hell yeah. But I think I'd be just some average nobody on some irrelevant planet.

8. Are you an introvert or extrovert?

Introvert.
