Claimed:Good bye Vasteras. Hello Moscow!

We are here today to confirm all the rumors about the Vasteras IK J20 moving to Russia. Vasteras IK J20 is 100% definite to move to Russia. Mr. Bruce Wayne, the Board of Governors, and the Russian Ice Hockey President, Vladislav Tertian sat down in Moscow yesterday, and signed the necessary paper work to confirm the move in front of many reporters. 

 

“I want to thank fans here in Vasteras for supporting us through our long history here,” said GM Bruce Wayne, “and I hope that they will cheer us on when we head to Russia.”

 

Though there maybe fans saddened in Vasteras, fans in Moscow could not be happier.

 

“The VHLM is finally coming to Russia,” said an exuberant fan in Russia, “after so long, we have finally been given a franchise!”

 

There are many new fans in Russia that will pledge their loyalty to the Moscow Red Wolves, which in turn gives a huge boost to the business side of things.

 

“We are expecting our profits to triple with our move to Russia,” said GM Bruce Wayne, “and the VHLM and VHL will also feel this increase in profits and number of fans.”

 

A question was raised about the conflicting interests between the KHL, the Russian’s professional hockey league, and the VHLM. Unfortunately for the KHL, it seems that the VHLM will win the battle of fans. The VHLM hold much more prestige than the KHL does and with Russian favorite Konstantin Azhishchenkov rising through the ranks, it is hard for Russian fans not to fall in the love with the VHLM and VHL.

The Red Wolves’ stadium and practice facilities have been confirmed as they were built prematurely in anticipation for the new VHLM team. The stadium has not gained any sponsors yet, as businesses were unsure if a team would indeed come to Russia. The stadium and facilities are state of the art and the stadium can hold an estimated 18 thousand people. This is a major step up for the Moscow Red Wolves because while in Vasteras, they would receive minimal funding as most of it went to the Vasteras Iron Eagles. Apparently, Vladmir Putin had a stadium and facilities constructed in Moscow for a KHL team, but when the KHL team decided against the move, Putin used the stadium and facilities as leverage for the Vasteras IK J20 to move to Russia.

According to sources, a move has been in the work since Sterling was in charge of the Vasteras IK J20. Once GM Bruce Wayne announced his intentions to move the franchise, the Board of Governors told Wayne that a deal was already in works and required Wayne’s confirmation.

 

“I stated my intent to move the franchise to the Commissioner,” said Bruce Wayne, “and it turns out that there was already a move in place. Took me by surprise, but I was thankful that the Board of Governors were in agreement with me.”

 

Sweaters for the new team have already been created as the logo has also been completed (top). VHLM draftees of the new Moscow Red Wolves, though it may only be 1 in the 4th round, will don the new sweater.

 

Though the chapter in Vasteras has come to a close, a new chapter in the franchise’s history has begun, and it should be interesting to see how it plays out.

We have the Lynx, and Wild already, seems like this similar animal is being overdone a bit. I do like the logo though.

A Red Wolf is not a lynx... not sure about the wild doe.. that seems more like a bobcat

Content: 3/3 - It's been a rumbling for quite a while now, but very happy to see it come to fruition. Doesn't hurt that you chose an awesome logo and mascot, especially the use of the color red. Very nice touch for a Russian team.
 
Grammar: 2/2 - Pretty solid!
 
there maybe fans saddened = there may be fans saddened
The VHLM hold much more = The VHLM holds much more
 
Appearance: 1/1 - Love love love the new logo and sweaters. Very sharp.
 
Overall: 6/6 -  :mos:
