3. I arrived a couple games into the season so I didn’t receive anything, but the team hooked me up with a bunch of apparel so that’s sick

4. NHL 20 baby

5. I’ve always been a big fan of a big taunt, just pester and annoy them, like the Green Men of the Vancouver Canucks in the NHL

6. Gandolf of LOTR

1. Ready as I'll ever be? I've got more experience in the M than a lot of guys on the team, and I'm hoping to take advantage of that experience to help get us off to a good start here. 

2. I eat an orange before every game on the way to the stadium. Something about driving while peeling an orange helps get my nerves calmed, and sharpen my senses before the battle ahead.

3. The Xavier leFlamant custom bobblehead where I'm shooting a slapshot on the lawn next to a garden flamingo. They know how much I appreciate bobbleheads, and myself for that matter.

4. The answer is obviously Chel. It's the game I beat up on the boys in before the games in the lockerroom anyways, we have a little bit of a league going around, let's just say I don't lose very often.

5. Most of our teammates could just take off their helmets and be scary, they're not the prettiest bunch. Joking aside, maybe some mouth pieces with scary pictures painted on them?

6. This is a great question, The first thing I thought of for some reason was to be in Dodgeball, a true underdog story. You get the Vegas trip, the glory, the girl, Vince Vaughn's character really gets a nice treatment in that one.

1. I think we have just been finding our game, and sticking to our gameplan. The boys have been flying and it’s been fun

2. It was a big adjustment at first, and I felt a bit behind, but I feel like I’ve been getting my skates under now and feeling good!

3. If we keep winning and just focus on our team, I’m sure we can catch them, but we don’t want to lose focus

4. Arms crossed with my game face, no props for me haha

5. Super speed skating

1)Amazing team chemistry, everyone has bought into the system and coming closer together as group, most of all some stellar goal tending 

2) Im beyond happy with the way the Reapers have performed and am as proud today as i was the first day i knew i was going to be a Reaper

4) I will deffintely be mid celly after scoring and my stick is going to be raised thats forsure lol 

5) Invisibility sounds pretty dang good to me for that scenario  

6) Their hockey abilities 

[Joe Exotic 32]

 1.If you had the opportunity to recreate your player, would you? And, if so, would you make the same position?   

 

I'm content with my skillset.

 

2.Do you have any interest in being on an episode of my podcast? (We always love having new guests)    

 

My fee as the #1 show on Netflix for the past 16 weeks is far more than you can afford.

 

3.Would you be open to doing/listening to a Reapers-only podcast episode?    

 

See previous answer.

 

4.What do you usually do for a point task each week (Media spot, graphic, podcast, or welfare) and why?    

 

I dabble in pretty much everything. I wish my team had our own press conference questions.

 

5.Is there any other way you'd like to be able to earn your main amount of TPE per week?    

 

Just from being famous.

 

6.What keeps you around in this simulation?

 

Building a great player and the community.

1. I think the extra playing time for the top line has been massive. You look over at Ottawa, that's exactly how they've found success. Plenty of guys deserve those extra minutes, myself included, and we've found success with it.

2. I'd say I'm underperforming, but hoping that turns around soon. I have wayyyy too much TPE to barely be in the top 25 in points right now.

3. I think it'll take some gooooooood ol' STHS luck, which is bound to happen. I've been on the wrong side of the better team losing enough times to know it's definitely possible.

4. I'll be standing like Louie XIV but with a hockey stick instead of a sword. A classically amazing portrait for a classically amazing M player.

5. Being really really fast, just like I am on the ice. Think about how my ability to zoom past unlucky opponents would translate to zooming towards bad guys, and of course, knocking em into the boards/buildings.

6. I would guess how much money they make. You can tell by the way they stand, the way they walk, the way they look, and the way your guy running the background check tells you through your ear piece.... it's the simple

1)      At this point in the season, you’ve played every team at least twice now. Have you developed a hatred for any team in particular? Why or why not?

2)      We have a slew of tough games followed by a bunch of easier games. Which games do you look forward to more, the ones against top teams or bottom teams? Why?

6)      How are you going to teach them that skill while not getting mauled by the tigers?

1) Its not so much a hatred but a rivalry forsure , when i see Ottawa on the schedule i get excited because i know its going to be some really good  hockey 

2)I myself prefer playing against tougher opponents and more skilled , this tends to push me to my best and play harder i always play up to the competition

3) Im really hoping were getting Philadelphia native Kevin Hart

4) i wouldnt mind throwing a nice hipcheck on Shaq and put 7 feet head over heels and have myself TSN highlight for the rest of my life

5) I LOVE cats , and these  big cats just give me more love , ive been playing "hand ball" with the tigers passing balls back and forth as they bat wit there massive paws/

6) The training that i have been doing with the animals is really improving there dexterity and full arm and paw control , i am also noticing they are learning to keep there claw retracted when playing, as we would never de-claw at G.W Zoo  

[Legend0985 18]

1)      At this point in the season, you’ve played every team at least twice now. Have you developed a hatred for any team in particular? Why or why not? Their all good teams and players no like or dislike.

2)      We have a slew of tough games followed by a bunch of easier games. Which games do you look forward to more, the ones against top teams or bottom teams? Why? Ottawa cause their the best to beat.

3)      The Reapers will be playing in a charity game where we have a celebrity coach. Which celebrity do you think should be our coach? How come? Patrick Roy cause he’s one of the best goalies ever.

4)      Which celebrity on the other team would you like to lay a huge hit on? Not sure.

5)      With our signing of Tiger King Joe Exotic, we have started a program to train tigers to play hockey. As a Reaper you have to help with their training. What hockey skill are you teaching the tigers? Stick handling .

6)      How are you going to teach them that skill while not getting mauled by the tigers? Be quick about it lol 

[Bayley 419]

1)      At this point in the season, you’ve played every team at least twice now. Have you developed a hatred for any team in particular? Why or why not?

Being a new player to the team, I am ready to start fresh and develop hatred. 

2)      We have a slew of tough games followed by a bunch of easier games. Which games do you look forward to more, the ones against top teams or bottom teams? Why?

I like the ones against the better teams. I get to show off and be better and get better. 

3)      The Reapers will be playing in a charity game where we have a celebrity coach. Which celebrity do you think should be our coach? How come?

Taylor Swift because she actually is a big hockey fan and she is amazing, so obviously, she needs to be our coach. 

4)      Which celebrity on the other team would you like to lay a huge hit on?

I am not sure what this means? But, that bitch Carole Baskin. 

5)      With our signing of Tiger King Joe Exotic, we have started a program to train tigers to play hockey. As a Reaper you have to help with their training. What hockey skill are you teaching the tigers?

We are teaching them how to eat the bad people. Like Carole Baskin's husband, not that she knows about what that means or anything. 

6)      How are you going to teach them that skill while not getting mauled by the tigers?

Well, this is awkward, you have to eat the other team. 

[solas 1,951]

1)      At this point in the season, you’ve played every team at least twice now. Have you developed a hatred for any team in particular? Why or why not?

None yet, I just got here.  But I don't know if I trust the Halifax 21st.  They look kinda...shifty.

 

2)      We have a slew of tough games followed by a bunch of easier games. Which games do you look forward to more, the ones against top teams or bottom teams? Why?

I like to test myself against the best.  If you don't want to play the top teams, what are you doing here?

 

3)      The Reapers will be playing in a charity game where we have a celebrity coach. Which celebrity do you think should be our coach? How come?

Hmmm...we're in Philadelphia, so I'll go with an athlete in 76ers center Joel Embiid.  He seems like a cool guy.  No idea if he knows anything about hockey, but hey, that could just make it more fun.

 

4)      Which celebrity on the other team would you like to lay a huge hit on?

That's a tough one.  I don't know.  I'm not much of a violent person anyways.  And as a goalie I can't say I have any experience with laying huge hits.

 

5)      With our signing of Tiger King Joe Exotic, we have started a program to train tigers to play hockey. As a Reaper you have to help with their training. What hockey skill are you teaching the tigers?

I guess since they don't have thumbs my skills as a goalie wouldn't be as applicable.  So I'd probably teach them how to skate first.  And after that I'd teach them an important mental aspect of goaltending: being calm under pressure.

 

6)      How are you going to teach them that skill while not getting mauled by the tigers?

By being calm under pressure.

1. I hate Ottawa. Everyone is picking them to win this year but they have not faced any adversity. If there is anyone who knows about adversity, it is Joe Exotic.

 

2. The easiest games. Point night! But your boy Joe isn't afraid of hard work. I've been dedicated to my craft my entire life.

 

3. Kate Upton so I can stare at those big boobs bouncing around the bench.

 

4. Justin Bieber. Little rat face punk.

 

5. As the impetus for this tiger movement, I am both thrilled and delighted that tigers are becoming more mainstream. I think everyone should own one as a pet. Sure, they may kill you, but they will provide you with affection that only a dog could match. Sure, the dogs are more friendly and much better pets, but I think dogs are for pussies. Pussies (Tigers) are for men. Just make sure you are visiting the Walmart dumpster for the meat they have thrown in the garbage. It's FREE!

 

6. They sense fear and will tear your face off if they know you are scared. So suck it up, buttercup. Put on your big boy pants and feed those fucking hungry tigers.
