Calgary Wranglers press conference

[jRuutu 2,464]

1. We were shown the new hybrid attributes system this week, what are your thoughts on it!

I have not looked in detail yet, but sounds interesting!

 

2. VHL wordle has been very popular lately, have you tried it? What are your thoughts on it!

No, sounds awful.

 

3. If you could add one attribute to STHS that doesn’t currently exist what would it be and why.

Some kind of aggression/intensity rating that affects how hard you play. Add points to it and the more you try, but you also get tired faster.

 

4. If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life what would it be and why?

Carrots

 

5. Calgary leads the league in OTL with 12, how does this make you feel?

Nice and happy.

 

6. What does your player eat before a game?

Pasta and meat. Keeps the motor going.

6. What does your player eat before a game?

1. Love it! Might not be perfect and like everything will need adjustments and work but anything is better then meta! 
 

2. This is the first I have heard of this! I have been playing world the last week and a half but not VHL wordle.

 

3. hmmmm that is a good question!! Maybe hockey IQ, idk most things are pretty well covered honestly!

 

4. I’m a stop you right there…. It’s poutine. It’s poutine.

 

5. Angry!!! So many lost points but they’re all games where we have a chance to win and we don’t finish it! That’s on us and something we need to work on!

 

6. Before the game it’s usually a chicken taco salad or Chicken caesar wrap, if we win I eat a poutine if we lose I eat a poutine.

1. We were shown the new hybrid attributes system this week, what are your thoughts on it!

It will defeat the meta atleast for a few seasons until someone figures out hte new meta so that is a plus. I think it will be interesting and we may see some interesting builds over the next few seasons as people try to figure it out.

 

2. VHL wordle has been very popular lately, have you tried it? What are your thoughts on it!

meh, unfortunately don't have the time for that but I am sure it is fun for those that participate.

 

3. If you could add one attribute to STHS that doesn’t currently exist what would it be and why.

While this isn't one attribute but I would split up scoring and add a Slapshot and Wristshot rating to differentiate types of shots.
 

 

4. If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life what would it be and why?

Perogies...Polish background and those things are the best. Especially homemade

 

5. Calgary leads the league in OTL with 12, how does this make you feel?

Doesn't matter too much now that were in playoffs but we need to find that killer touch in the playoffs in order to finish out those close games

 

6. What does your player eat before a game?

One of the 3 p's...

Perogies, Pizza or Poutine

1. Very! It is a good matchup, wranglers are ready! It’s due or die time for Perry and the wranglers!

 

2. Vancouver because they cheat

 

3. VHLE has been a flop

 

4. No! But I would really like to learn others like Spanish because it would be so handy around the world!

 

5. I play hockey and a few other summer sports as well! As much as possible!

 

6. Trick question, Jake Paul off the top rope takes you both out.

1. Anything to get rid of that meta. I like it.

3. Possibly separate Slap Shot and Wrist Shot to different attributes.

4. Donairs. I eat them all week anyways.

5. I mean, I guess we're getting a point at least. It means we didn't lose in regulation.

6. Chicken parms.

6. Me and Ricer are in a boxing match against each other, who do you have winning?

1. of course, it is my first playoff series in the big show.

2. There are other teams? On a more serious note, I think Vancouver will do anything humanly possible to profit once more from the established meta before it ceases to exist. It will be our job to stop them dead in their tracks (or Seattle's for that matter, as they came close twice already).

3. Hmm, I am still a little heartbroken about resetting my player with the new hybrid attributes.

4. French and German (and Swiss German which technically is a German dialect, but practically is a language of its own, as Germans do not understand us if we speak it in our normal tempo).

5. No, I used to play floorball, but now I am to old and too can't-be-bothered to play.

6. Trick question, Phil will step in and stop any such nonsense.

[jRuutu 2,464]

1. It’s playoff time, at the time of writing this we are playing LA, are you excited?

Yes, this is what we play for!

 

2. Besides Calgary what is a team you see winning it all?

I don't

 

3. What’s your VHL “hot take” or unpopular opinion?

Too many teams in VHL. VHLE should be like the farm league for VHL, where welfare players go play. VHL should be all about competing.

 

4. Do you speak any language besides English?

Finnish

 

5. Do you play hockey in real life or any other’s sports irl?

No

 

6. Me and Ricer are in a boxing match against each other, who do you have winning?

Who is Me? Some Chinese UFC fighter? Me would win, but barely.

 Gustislav Nasherov has the nicest finger nails in the league

 Handballs where it's at

1. I will say that I was excited. My excitement has gone down since then. We lost.

 

2. The meta teams. Lmao

 

3. VHL should just let me have 12 TPE per week because I don't want to put effort in.

 

4. I can slightly speak Ukrainian from when my grandma was alive, and a little bit of French I took in high school.

 

5. I used to be in beer leagues every year in hockey but I haven't played this year.

 

6. Ricer because if I say otherwise he'll probably trade me.

2. Besides Calgary what is a team you see winning it all?
Probably Vancouver and its Meta team. Good thing thats ending after this season

 

3. What’s your VHL “hot take” or unpopular opinion?

Not enough options for 6 point TPE. Should be more

 

4. Do you speak any language besides English?

Polish and French

 

5. Do you play hockey in real life or any other’s sports irl?

I play soccer in real life, used to play hockey when I was younger but not anymore

6. What are your thoughts on dry fruit?

1. obviously I am not pleased, and I feel sorry for Klam and Perry for whom it was the last swing at a cup.

2. Yes I have been drafted to the Dekes of Hazzard.

3. The Zug Bulls in Switzerland

4. No I have no interest in basketball.

5. I think we gave the series away in game four when we allowed five goals in ten power play attempts for the Stars.

6. Some I like, others not so much (not a big fan of raisins).

[jRuutu 2,464]

1. Well we lost and it’s the off-season what are your thoughts?

I'm glad we lost. Now I have more time to do things that I actually like, such as counting my money and watching highlights of my plays from Youtube.

 

2. The Pro-am ran by your handsome GM ricer is starting up are you participating in it?

I don't know, maybe. PM me the link and I will.

 

3. If you could add one team to the VHL what would the name be and the location?

Asian team would be nice. Taiwan Eagles or something like that.

 

4. The mens NCAA basketball tournament is happening are you watching it?

Noh, basketball is not really a sport for me.

 

5. Do you think Calgary got robbed by the meta when we played LA?

Maybe, I think luck was a bigger factor still. 94% luck and 6 % meta. 

 

6. What are your thoughts on dry fruit?

I'm not a fan!

[Vat 234]

Well we lost and it’s the off-season what are your thoughts?

 

Dammit

 

 

 

2. The Pro-am ran by your handsome GM ricer is starting up are you participating in it?

 

I'm a player

 

3. If you could add one team to the VHL what would the name be and the location?

 

 Idk about names but Rögle

 

4. The mens NCAA basketball tournament is happening are you watching it?

 

 Nope

 

5. Do you think Calgary got robbed by the meta when we played LA?

 

 

Hell yes

 

 

6. What are your thoughts on dry fruit?

 

Heavily underrated

1. On to the next one. All you can really say when you lose. No point dwelling over the should and could have.

 

2. Didn't really know much about it, tbh.

 

3. Quebec or Montreal in some capacity. Seems odd for a hockey league not to have Quebec in it. Obviously Quebec City rebranded as Vancouver, but now I think they could make another.

 

4. Not really. Just seeing highlights.

 

5. The whole league is robbed when the metas dominate.

 

6. I don't mind it. Raisins are great in Raisin Bran.

1. Gotta start building for the future some day. Bittersweet feelings.

2. Same as usual. Just keep training and waiting for the first game!

3. I have not with this player. I'm a C but if the team needs it I will change any time. Defenseman is a fun position as well. I've switched with 2 previous players.

4. Right.

5. Canucks are my #1, so they're not doing too great. Not currently in a spot, and a playoff spot is slowly creeping out of reach. There's still a glimmer of hope.

6. I've met multiple Canucks players. Other than that, I met Michael Buble before through a friend as he lives in the city I grew up.

1. I hate to see established players go, but I do understand that a rebuild is unavoidable.

2. Same as always. Earn as much as I can to be ready for the season.

3. I already played all skater positions with this player (Left wing, right wing, center and defender). I did it due to positional need of the respective teams (I started as LW).

4. Neither (when I was younger the answer was 'Why or?'. Mars Almond was my favourite, now it is more Milkyway. But I do not eat choc-bars anymore (or very rarely).

5. 7th of the league which should be good enough to grasp a coveted playoff seed.

6. I do not think I have (which is not very surprising as I am not very outgoing, and celebrities do not have a habit of showing up at my place).

[Jamomayo 37]

1. I haven’t really been following the trades this last season in the vhl but losing a player on the roster always sucks

2. with this season coming up I’m looking for big changes including a new team and earning a lot more tpe

3. I have actually played multiple position I will play any to help the team in the best way I’m majorly a left wing but I have played center for both the bulls and stockholm

4. I’m a both kinda guy bite into them at the same time I’m a weird breed

5. I’m a big penguins fan always have been so it’s looking good there’s still a chance they can win it all but there is a lot of good teams in the league but the penguins have that playoff experience and they always said the playoff is a whole different league 

6. dion pheanuf I service his house for work and I was actually there today checking on things there and the place is huge I pulled up and I thought his garage was his house

[Phil 5,119]

QUESTIONS - because why not?

 

1. Season 1 of a rebuild is always a little challenging and grind-y. How is your player going to make it through the journey ahead?

 

2. Seems like Calgary picked up some great young talent at the draft. How do you think we did?

 

3. Phil the Rock Johnson is in his last season before retirement. With the new attribute system, do you think he'll still be able to reach 350+hits this season?

 

4. Speak to us about our goaltending situation (Current and future)

 

5. What did you work on the most this off season?

 

6. Did you follow the World Cup? How did your region do?
