Calgary Wranglers press conference

[BOOM 9,203]

1. GM Zef Gonçalves (praise Leandro) has made some significant deals to extend the competitive period for the Wranglers. What are your thoughts to these moves?

 

I think the window is rapidly closing, so it's pretty much now or never. Good moves though, just hoping they have an effect.

 

2. How do you welcome the newbies to our team/town.

 

I give them all a $2000 gift voucher to Calgary's finest establishment, Blondies Cabaret @ 736 10 AVE SW. I have a referral code.

 

3. The previous players of Doomsday and Riley, netminder Lindbergh and forward Larry Abbas Jr. were essential in CGY's last cup win. Why will it be the same this time around?

 

The STHS world operates in weird ways, so returning users is just as good of a reason as any for success.

 

4. We all know that Françesinhas are Leandro's guilty culinary pleasure. What is yours and share with us when and why you decided that it is this dish?

 

Damn, I googled that and it sounds pretty awesome. Make that two of us now.

 

5. Your player gets a weekend in Vegas. What activity does he/she enjoy the most and why?

 

Hehehehehehehe....really? Well, except of the testing and usual antibiotics prescribed.

 

6. If your player would get a car sponsoring, which one would they get and why?

 

I'm quite simple, so I'd go with Mercedes, but because it's snowy Canada I'll pick this one:

[BOOM 9,203]

1. A third into the season, how are you feeling?

 

I'm pleased with Dassler's performance so far, but in his final season he needs to continue to help the Wranglers.

 

2. Has anything surprised you so far?

 

No, not particularly. I haven't been paying that much attention though, if I'm being honest.

 

3. What are you playing in the Locker Room before a game?

 

Musically, Hanumankind...games-wise, Cards against Humanity.

 

4. What's the most undervalued skill in hockey?

 

Persistence/Grit

 

5. What are your thoughts on the salary cap going down next season?

 

Fortunately that kind of decision and it's subsequent management is way above my pay grade.

 

6. Fries on a milkshake or ice cream. What do you think?

 

Oh my god, you disgusting human being.

[mintusaurus 40]

1. A third into the season, how are you feeling?

Feel pretty good, I need to step up my physical and offensive game.

2. Has anything surprised you so far?

That I only have 6 PIM

3. What are you playing in the Locker Room before a game?

Something angry and fast. Something punk like, Against All Authority or something where you can start a nice circle pit to.

4. What's the most undervalued skill in hockey?

Positioning

5. What are your thoughts on the salary cap going down next season?

I mean I get it. Times are tough, and with the tariffs, lol

6. Fries on a milkshake or ice cream. What do you think?

I am not opposed to someone enjoying this combo, but it is not for me

1. Feeling pretty good. Boris is playing better than I expected which is fantastic!

 

2. Boris performance has surprised me in a good way.

 

3. Boris doesn’t listen to anything, he goes off into a blank stare and imagines what he is going to do to his opponents like a real killa.

 

4. I would have to say hockey iq/sense.

 

5. I think it might make the league more competitive.

 

6. Ngl, never tried it. Sounds like an interesting idea.

3. What are you playing in the Locker Room before a game?

1. I feel like Spider Panda is ass but the team is actually performing quite well. So overall I’m feeling good.

2. I’d like to say Spider Panda being ass but it really isn’t that surprising.

3. Depends on my mood, it’ll either be Linkin Park or a mix I have made of pregame tunes which is mostly pump up type music.

1. Calgary is third in the NA Conference. Why do we still have a chance to get the number one seed?

2. If you were to lure an old team mate to Caglary, what would you tell them?

3. Which EU team do you see win their conference and why?

4. What activity is your player participating in at the Stampede and elaborate why he picked that one?

5. Your player would get a beverage deal, what brand would it be and what would be his catch phrase?

6. What is the best pet and why is it a dog?

 

[BOOM 9,203]

1. Calgary is third in the NA Conference. Why do we still have a chance to get the number one seed?

 

Of course we do. The Wranglers are a great team that deserves some more sim luck and eventually class wins out.

 

2. If you were to lure an old team mate to Caglary, what would you tell them?

 

That it's a great LR with quality users and whatever help you need, someone will always step up.

 

3. Which EU team do you see win their conference and why?

 

To be perfectly honest, Europe doesn't concern me, well not until we matchup against one of them in the playoffs.

 

4. What activity is your player participating in at the Stampede and elaborate why he picked that one?

 

The naked calf roping. My Bdsm skills come in handy when it comes to handling rope.

 

5. Your player would get a beverage deal, what brand would it be and what would be his catch phrase?

 

It would be Coke and the slogan would be "Dassler does coke and the drink is awesome too".

 

6. What is the best pet and why is it a dog?

 

Oh it's likely to be a dog, but don't dismiss the humble Kangaroo as a companion.

1. The Wranglers aren't quitters and simon has to became are friend at some point right....

 

2. The vibes are great all around here!

 

3. Moscow because they probably have the best forward core with a solid defense trio and a really solid goalie.

 

4. Bull riding, but it would actually be Boris wrestling the bull because he loves to show is dominance.

 

5. It would be Stolichnaya and the catch phrase would be "I love Crushing Stolichnaya just like I love Crushing my opponents."

 

6. I would have to say dog because just everything about them makes them the best.

1. Calgary has hired a familiar person to replaced Leandro as manager. Kris Rice is back for his second stint with the team. How are we feeling about this move for Calgary?

 

2. Calgary has made the Continental Cup Finals! How surprised are you we dominated our way to the finals?

5. The NHL playoffs are also happening right now, which matchup are you following the closest?

 

6. Any good movies or shows you’ve been watching lately? Give me a quick review on it. (spoiler free)

[BOOM 9,203]

1. Calgary has hired a familiar person to replaced Leandro as manager. Kris Rice is back for his second stint with the team. How are we feeling about this move for Calgary?

 

One good GM replaces another one. I doubt the team misses a beat as Rice builds on the great work done by Leandro.

 

2. Calgary has made the Continental Cup Finals! How surprised are you we dominated our way to the finals?

 

Ha, surprised? This team finally sees the success it's been built to achieve.

 

3. We will be facing either Moscow or Riga for the cup. What advantage do we have over either of these teams?

 

We will be crushing the Russians, so we have democracy and freedom on our side against oppression and cruelty.

 

4. Who’s been the Wranglers MVP this post season?

 

I prefer not to single out a player, rather it's been a team effort and everyone has played their part to get to this point.

 

5. The NHL playoffs are also happening right now, which matchup are you following the closest?

 

Oh, is that still going? Ummm, after a quick google, I guess it's Dallas vs Colorado.

 

6. Any good movies or shows you’ve been watching lately? Give me a quick review on it. (spoiler free)

 

Well I haven't started it yet, but I'm looking forward to starting "Mobland", as Tom Hardy is one of my favorite actors.

Week ending May 11 2025

 

1. The Calgary Wranglers are the S98 Continental Cup champs! Give me your first reaction to the win!

 

2. Who was the playoff MVP in your opinion? 
 

3. Leandro wins his first championship in his final season as GM, what does returning GM Kris Rice need to do to keep Calgary in contention next season?

 

4. Adi Dassler is hosting the team for a championship party, what does you think he has in store for the team?

 

5. Calgary has made two trades on day 1, Mina is coming to Calgary to replace retiring Yaboi Oven for next season. Do you like this move for Calgary?

 

6. Next they acquired a young defender in Dog Jagr who GM Kris Rice is familiar with from his Miami days. Is there hope that this prospect can become a key piece for Calgary in the near future?

[BOOM 9,203]

Week ending May 11 2025

 

1. The Calgary Wranglers are the S98 Continental Cup champs! Give me your first reaction to the win!

 

Fuck yeah, woooooooooooooooooooooohoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. Let's get shitfaced boys.

 

2. Who was the playoff MVP in your opinion? 

 

I'm an incredibly handsome, charismatic and humble individual, so my vote goes to Phil Sakic...what a stud.
 

3. Leandro wins his first championship in his final season as GM, what does returning GM Kris Rice need to do to keep Calgary in contention next season?

 

Just build upon the solid foundations of this champion franchise and put his own spin on it. I'm sure he'll have great ideas and plans in store.

 

4. Adi Dassler is hosting the team for a championship party, what does you think he has in store for the team?

 

All I'll say is, make this the one time you lie to your significant other about where you went and what you did. It will be worth it.

 

5. Calgary has made two trades on day 1, Mina is coming to Calgary to replace retiring Yaboi Oven for next season. Do you like this move for Calgary?

 

Far be it for me to evaluate such moves, but I see it as a positive move that helps Calgary moving forward and that's good enough for me.

 

6. Next they acquired a young defender in Dog Jagr who GM Kris Rice is familiar with from his Miami days. Is there hope that this prospect can become a key piece for Calgary in the near future?

 

Of course. Rice is a quality GM that wouldn't make such a move unless it was of benefit to the Wranglers. He's displaying his acumen for shrewd management decisions here....nice move.

1. LETS FUCKING GOOOOOO!!!!

 

2. It could go to a couple of people but taking the final game into account I think Adi was the mvp.

 

3. Gotta add good quality pieces around the core guys.

 

4. A bunch of drinking and partying!

 

5. I think its a good move, a good replacement for oven.

 

6. Yeah, I think Don can eventually become a strong piece to Calgary's core.

Week ending May 11 2025

 

1. The Calgary Wranglers are the S98 Continental Cup champs! Give me your first reaction to the win!

 

I was just traded here. So its cool to be traded to a place with recent success. really excited to see the future of this team. 

2. Who was the playoff MVP in your opinion? 
 

Phil Sakic was unbelievable. But it could go to so many player. 

3. Leandro wins his first championship in his final season as GM, what does returning GM Kris Rice need to do to keep Calgary in contention next season?

 

Ricer just needs to be himself. He is an awesome and im excited what the can do for the team. Congrats to Leandro!

4. Adi Dassler is hosting the team for a championship party, what does you think he has in store for the team?

 

I will feel a little awkward going to a championship party and I wasnt a part of the team. But I hope the team has fun!

5. Calgary has made two trades on day 1, Mina is coming to Calgary to replace retiring Yaboi Oven for next season. Do you like this move for Calgary?

 

I have full confidence in the front office. Why couldnt they do it on Day 0!

6. Next they acquired a young defender in Dog Jagr who GM Kris Rice is familiar with from his Miami days. Is there hope that this prospect can become a key piece for Calgary in the near future?

I am here to contribute when and wherever i can. Doesnt matter what line im in. I just want to help this team win.

1. It's an unbelievable feeling. Being part of a final with stakes on both teams was odd, but in the end, you've got to appreciate both journeys.

2. Playoff MVP is an unfair award because you can't overlook the importance of the Finals. I'd probably select Spider Panda, but I reckon Dassler and Sakic did more than enough to get the recognition.

3. Kris Rice is more than capable of creating a great team. He's shown that before in Calgary; it's a new era for the team, but at the same time, things look as familiar as ever.

4. I don't know, and I'm not sure we want to find out. It'll be a great one that hopefully we all get too wasted to remember.

5. Mina is an incredible addition. YaBoi Oven was stellar in his last season, and Mina can do the same.

6. Kris Rice has a great record of player development. One can only assume Jagr is his latest project.

2. In the 2nd round Calgary had a pair of picks, Viener Schnitzel @Spaz and Jozef Koesser @fantooge. Give me your thoughts on these selections.

1. I mean Its awesome I went in the 1st round! Barely made it in, but I was in. I get the other picks as those were higher tpe guys, but i truly believe komi was a great pick due to the value a experienced member can bring. 

2. I believe they should be good role players based on their earning which mine isnt much better to be fair, but every little bit helps! 

3. I believe simon will do what simon does. Other than that yes roster looks like it could do a run in the playoffs given the right matchups

4. Well I don't know any of the new faces to be fair, but I believe everyone will have an effect out there on the ice. 

5. Well Komi absolutely suggests california as he's visiting his family and can show them some places! 

6. I believe I am? Obviously story wise Komi is, but me not a ton though have been trying. 

[BOOM 9,203]

1. The S99 Draft has come and gone. What are your thoughts on first round pick G Komi Kamal?

 

Another quality addition to the Wranglers, that secures the important goaltender position moving forward.

 

2. In the 2nd round Calgary had a pair of picks, Viener Schnitzel and Jozef Koesser. Give me your thoughts on these selections.

 

Both selections should see the Wranglers build and maintain a competitive roster as GM Ricer puts his mark on the team.

 

3. Calgarys roster looks finalized for season 99. Do you feel they’ve done enough to remain a contender in the NA conference?

 

I don't see why not. The moves this offseason should see the Wranglers at the pointy end of the standings and once a playoff spot is secured, anything can happen.

 

4. A lot of new faces have joined the Calgary squad this offseason, who do you think will have the biggest impact next season?

 

Since the retirement of Dassler, I see Forum Content sliding into a similar role alongside Sakic to form a lethal top line.

 

5. The team is off on summer vacation for a few weeks.  A few teammates have opted to go on a players trip for a week, where are they going?

 

I see a number of the more adventurous players heading to Amsterdam for a little relaxation.

 

6. Are you apart of any offseason tournaments? If not, are you paying attention to any of them?

 

I think Dassler was selected for Western Europe, though he may have been replaced by now. I'll probably just check the boxscores when the tournament ends.

Calgary Presser for week ending May 18th, 2025

 

1. The S99 Draft has come and gone. What are your thoughts on first round pick G Komi Kamal @dustywilson22?

Going to be future HOF goal minder for us. 

 

2. In the 2nd round Calgary had a pair of picks, Viener Schnitzel @Spaz and Jozef Koesser @fantooge. Give me your thoughts on these selections.

Ricer is a genius. I have faith on all of our picks. 

 

3. Calgarys roster looks finalized for season 99. Do you feel they’ve done enough to remain a contender in the NA conference?

Not only a contender for the conference, but for the cup as well. 

 

4. A lot of new faces have joined the Calgary squad this offseason, who do you think will have the biggest impact next season?

Dog Jagr might not be on the first line, or even the second D Line, but he will make an impact in the minutes he will play. 

5. The team is off on summer vacation for a few weeks.  A few teammates have opted to go on a players trip for a week, where are they going?

summer in Calgary cant get much better. Little to no humidity and in the upper 70s probably, Im not going anywhere 

6. Are you apart of any offseason tournaments? If not, are you paying attention to any of them?

honestly no. If its for TPE, i probably should join one or two. 

[Spaz 307]

1. The S99 Draft has come and gone. What are your thoughts on first round pick G Komi Kamal @dustywilson22?

 

Elite, most likely another hall of famer!!

 

2. In the 2nd round Calgary had a pair of picks, Viener Schnitzel @Spaz and Jozef Koesser @fantooge. Give me your thoughts on these selections.

 

Excited to have the opportunity and hopefully contribute to the team.

 

3. Calgarys roster looks finalized for season 99. Do you feel they’ve done enough to remain a contender in the NA conference?

 

Back to back!!

 

4. A lot of new faces have joined the Calgary squad this offseason, who do you think will have the biggest impact next season?

 

I believe the everyone will have an impact in their own way!!

 

5. The team is off on summer vacation for a few weeks.  A few teammates have opted to go on a players trip for a week, where are they going?

 

I'm going to assume back home to spend time with family or continue to practice.

 

6. Are you apart of any offseason tournaments? If not, are you paying attention to any of them?

 

I was apart of Junior Show Case, lost to the royals in 6 but I can't complain I didn't do to shabby, also apart of team world  but that one was pretty short lived lol
