PBR: Optimism Runs High

[DMaximus 1,046]

Welcome to  the Philadelphia Beat Report, your inside scoop to the Philadelphia Reapers! 

 

The off-season is a busy time for every team. It’s especially busy for expansion teams. The Reapers GM, BladeMaiden, has spent many sleepless nights trying to fill out the Reapers’ roster. Efforts were complicated with turnover at the Assistant General Manager position. You could simultaneously hear the exhaustion and excitement in BladeMaiden’s voice when she announced the Reapers’ new AGM, DilIsPickle.

 

All the hard work has paid off as the Reapers have signed multiple coveted free agents. High profile free agent signings like C - Tyler Barabash Jr and C - Jet Jaguar and hard offseason work by RW - Mikko Aaltonen, RW - John Frostbeard, D - Charlie Paddywagon, G - Wendy Kandee Cain, and G - Patrick Vigneault have led to the beat report hearing optimistic statements from multiple sources. “One of the common knocks on an expansion team is that there’s no cohesion. A bunch of random players get thrown together and it takes time for them to gel. I don’t see that with this team. The locker room has been a great place. Everyone is working together and supporting each other.” Another source quipped “There’s so much good energy right now. If they can keep up that energy for the whole season, watch out!”

 

Fans and players alike are hoping this wave of optimism can carry the Reapers to greatness.
