Bulls Wire - Episode One [1/2]

[Kirby 27]

 

Hello and welcome to the debut episode of Bulls Wire, a feature where we will break down the Houston Bulls stats leaders through as many weeks as we are in the season! Without further ado, let’s get this show on the road!

 

Points

 

Take a bow Kari Jurri, through the first five games you have been absolutely LETHAL! With 11 points total, Jurri is leading the team by a whole 3 points from Maximilian Kirbsson. The majority of his points have been goals however he also does he bit with assists. It will be interesting to see if he is leading as the season progresses but through five games he’s simply been lights out. Here’s hoping he continues his onslaught as the Bulls will continue to win games for as long as he is playing like this! Jurri is currently tied 3rd in points in the whole VHLM, only two points behind HHH.

 

Goals

 

Well, no wondering on this one, it’s that man again Kari Jurri and it’s not even close. Not even remotely close. He’s currently sitting at 7 goals (through five games!!) and his closest team mate is that man again, Maximilian Kirbsson. These two are really setting it alight together so far. The chemistry that they have developed offensively in such a short space of time is impressive, to say the least. We can’t really expect anyone else to be close to Jurri so far, and why? He’s the leading goal scorer in the entire VHLM so far! Yes, it’s only early days but who cares, Jurri is on fire.

 

Assists

 

Every Bonnie, needs a Clyde. Step up, Maximilian Kirbsson. Kirbsson is currently leading the team in Assists with 5, but it’s definitely pleasing to see that the whole team is chipping in with assists. Milan Griffin, Beau Buefordsson and Kari Jurri all sit just behind on 4 assists and in all fairness the majority of the team are doing their bit, which is so pleasing to see!

 

Hits

 

It’s not all about offense, okay!! Viktor Kozlov and Fylo Gibbles both are in the top 10 for hits, which is a testament to the physicality that the Bulls turn up and play with. I fully expect Kozlov to be at, or near the top of this by the end of the season. He’s an absolute mountain of a man and opposing teams are genuinely scared of him when he takes to the ice. Like seriously, they are scared.

 

Blocks

 

Jerry Garcia blocks shots. Like every shot. That’s why he sits in the top 10 VHLM wide for blocks. Keep plugging away Garcia and you’re going to be on the radar of most of the VHL teams as a great defense man!

 

Saves

 

Shoutout to Owen May, you unsung hero you! He’s the only goalie that has had a shut out, so that’s also on the defense too. You guys rule. .846 save percentage isn’t no way near the best in the league but this boy is a grinder and I have full confidence that May will come to play soon, real soon!

Review: I found this article was a unique look at the Bulls stat leaders. I feel it had good flow and was well written. Also the picture was a nice addition to the article. Jurri had 11 points in 5 games, wow that's really good! They will need him at the top of his game if they want to make a run at the cup this season. 

 

Nice work!
