1. Jankowski, he’s been a beast!

2. It’s tight between Puhovs and Moore, so I’ll give it to both of them!

3. No then it’s just a hot dog!

4. Nilsson on philly so far, ridiculous amount of points wow!

5. I don’t remember how many there even are to begin with, I’ll say 2-3 players!

6. I’d be the guy in the back sneaking it in my pocket while someone else lifts the trophy first hahaha!

[TheOGShark 29]

1. Jankowski is the man right now.

2. Moore is our brick wall right now!

3. Hot dogs is its own group of awesomeness!

4. Nilsson on Philly is lighting it up right now.

5. 4-5 players will win this year. We are stacked.

6. A lumberjack of some sort.

1) Who has been the most important offensive contributor in our squad this season?

I'm not an expert, but I'll guess Jankowski?

2) What about defensive? 
Moore and our goalie

3) Are hot dogs a sandwich?

Is the sky blue? But honestly, no they're not.

4) Who is your pick for VHLM MVP trophy this season based off performances so far?

Jankowski, because he's the man no doubt!
5) How many, if any, awards do you think Minnesota players will win?

I have no clue, honestly. We've got brilliant depth so I'll just say we'll pick up a couple or four.

6) Which would you prefer, do keep the game winning puck from the final game in a cup final, or hoist the cup first?

First I'll hoist the trophy, then I'll steal the dang thing so you will never see it again!

1. @Telkster has been an absolute fore this season! any opponents defence should be shivering in there skates when they face him!

3. NO....but maybe 
4. might  go out of our team for this one just because Kjell Nilsson is putting up stupid numbers this season!
5. at least 12 possibly 30 
6. easy hoist the cup!!!!!
7. some ginger with an absurdly long beard and absolutely massive forearms!

7) What do you envision our team mascot being?

1. Clearly it's me, with my two assists from the goalie position. Clearly. But after me, I'd probably go with Telker. Those 4 GWG are clutch!

2. Don't want to say me again, so going to say Sharkton, because no PIMs is impressive.

3. Depends? Is it only a hotdog once it's in a bun? Because I call them hotdogs before they touch a bun. And those are just meat sticks. And a meat stick is not a sandwich. So no.

4. Feels like a cop out, but gotta go with Telker again! Dude seems to be clutched.

5. How many can I win as a goalie? At least that many.

6. Game winning puck- unless it's a Ray Bourque situation, I don't think a goalie should get the cup first. Unless maybe if I stopped like 60 shots to win the game. Then maybe.

7. I was thinking the other day that I was kind of perplexed by our emblem. "Storm" lends itself to some really cool imagery that'd make for some sick emblems, but instead it's Red Beard McGee. So I guess Red Beard McGee would be our mascot?

While I agree that a "hot dog" can just mean the meat, in this context it should be considered in the bun

1.) Telker, guy leads us in goals. Or is it Max Jankowski? Man too many of us scoring goals I’ve actually lost count. 

 

2.) Ron World Peace has been clutch for us, and I love the guy’s last name. So yeah.

 

3.) Nah that a hot dog. With a hot dog bun. 

 

4.) Brendan Telker no doubt. He gets us going and we wouldn’t be where we are without him. 

 

5.) I’d venture out and say I could see maybe three Storm players winning awards at the end of this season. I just made that number up but yeah - whoever out of us ends up winning definitely deserves it. 

 

6.) I’d rather keep the game winning puck cause everybody’s gonna want the cup first. 

 

7.) a old drunk Viking

1. J is next to K so give me Jankowski

2. Can I go with all of us? If not, I'll go with Moore.

3. It's probably a top 4 sandwich for me. 

4. Tekler imo. Has support of whole team

5. I think 3 is a safe number. Hopefully more. 

6. I think I'd rather have the puck. Its more practical imo.

Answer 6 questions to claim 2 TPE

1) Who has been the most important offensive contributor in our squad this season?

Oh Jankowski for sure, the man is having a great season so far. 

2) What about defensive? 

Gonna go with Puhovs!

3) Are hot dogs a sandwich?

Well if we go by the definition for what a sandwich is, "two or more slices of bread or a split roll having a filling in between" it's safe to say yes. 

4) Who is your pick for VHLM MVP trophy this season based off performances so far?

Tekler 
5) How many, if any, awards do you think Minnesota players will win?

I think a pretty decent amount. 3

6) Which would you prefer, do keep the game winning puck from the final game in a cup final, or hoist the cup first?

Game winning puck. If you win the cup I feel it doesn't really matter who hoists it because everyone gets to. But getting the game winner is something everyone remembers

7) What do you envision our team mascot being?

Either a really silly cartoon looking storm cloud, or a zeus type figure with a red beard.

2. with my girlfriend 

 

3. score 

 

4. lion 

 

5. he is really good, he help us to do the good things !

 

6. no one worry me I think we can win every game 

 

7. Don’t put a single point in the playoffs haha 

[TheOGShark 29]

1. Why would we tell you? It is supposed to be a surprise.

2. Doing homework and bussing for cash.

3. Depends on the context. Sometimes, blocking shots is more important but I believe scoring goals in general is more important as scoring goals means either pushing the lead out of reach or getting the team back on track towards pushing OT.

4. I would pick a shark. Hunting schools of fish and being like Jaws, eating humans alive.

5. More defence more defence. Continue to only invest in defence.

6. I'm not that worried. We are a GOD team.

7. Getting head hunted by giant defensemen over 6'6". I'll get a concussion and lose my sanity.

1. I wanna get our coaches even more wins lol.

2. Probably working for lots of it, but I get enough free time!

3. Scoring for me, because a none blocked shot still isn't a guaranteed goal.

4. A wolf would be cool.

6. Mexico City 3 times and Houston in the near future will be good tests, but I'm not worried.

7. Concussions for me.

1. Our first shutout. Hope you don't mind, I got it for them early.

2. Resting the body. Stopping all those pucks and writing articles takes it toll.

3. Being a goalie, I'm going to have to go with blocking a shot lol

4. An axolotl. Being able to regenerate any damage I did from being stupid would be super useful.

5. "My name is Rayz and I give really good in-depth post-game reviews talking about corsi and PDO"

6. Houston. They're the other big dogs.

7. Skate to the groin. Is a jockstrap really going to protect that?

6. Miami. Do we have Miami? Idk

[Cornholio 182]

1) Valentine's Day is coming up! What presents are you getting for your coaches? 

Probably chocolate-covered penis shaped treats. That’s how we do things in Iceland for our home boys. Guaranteed to add humor. 

 

2) How are you going to spend the weekend? 

Just get our ice workouts in, hope for some snow so we can skip on a day in the study/meeting rooms. Rayz is always going on and on about those advanced numbers that maybe half of us don’t know. 

 

3) What is more important, scoring a goal, or blocking a shot?

Scoring a goal. You see the difference maker on the scoreboard. 

4) If you had to be an animal for a day, what would you pick?

Llama, those animals don’t take no shit from anybody. 

 

5) Give me your best impression of Rayz. 
*hands clapping*

 

6) Looking ahead to the next couple of games, which, if any, worry you?

I only worry about whether or not I can score more. My pace has been lagging lately. 

 

7) What is your biggest sports fear?

Getting injured on an non-contact play/movement. That’s the worst one imo.
