Answer 6 questions to claim 2 TPE

 

1) Well, unfortunately it's the end of the road. What was our downfall against Mexico? 
2) How did our performance this season as a team meet your expectations at the start of the season? 
3) Did you hit the personal goals you set out to achieve? 

4) What is next for your player? Will you be heading up to the VHL or sticking with the VHLM for a while longer?

5) Do you think you have a shot at any awards this season? 

6) Who do you think was our MVP this season?

7) What are you gonna do now that the season is done? Offseason plans? 
 

1. They scored more goals than we did.

2. Well, after just barely surviving the previous season, I was blown away.

3. Oh, hell yeah! Over a point a game with a goal with 2 minutes left in my career is good.

4. VHL, here we come!

5. Most improved, maybe?

6. Telker for sure.

7. Train with @Trunkxolotl as we prepare to debut in Vancouver together.

1. I guess defense. We had no problem scoring against them.

2. We had a great regular season, with a fairly average run if you combine both series we played. 

3. Whatever goal I would set for myself would have been far under 100 points, so I cannot complain haha.

4. I'll be heading up to the VHL!

5. I'd be surprised if I had one, I don't think I was 1st in any major stat category.

6. I've got to hand it to Moore, he was a beast back there!

1. I failed as a defensemen.

2. I had no clue. I was happy to be on a team and had a fun time with you all. So in that sense I was very happy that my expectations were met.

3. No. I still don't know the system. I've got a lot of learning to do. But I'll try

4. I don't know how things work here but I'd like to play in the minors more if I'm allowed

Answer 6 questions to claim 2 TPE

 

1) Well, unfortunately it's the end of the road. What was our downfall against Mexico? 

Gave up way too many goals and we had a rough PK. It honestly sucks because I thought we were better than this, but I can't bet too mad at this team. 
2) How did our performance this season as a team meet your expectations at the start of the season? 

At the start I was just hoping for the best, I mean I came from a different team in the Saskatoon Wild and I wasn't used to the locker room I was in. But I am very pleased on how we preformed this year.
3) Did you hit the personal goals you set out to achieve? 

Uh.. I SHATTERED THEM. I'm so impressed with how my player played and I couldn't have asked for a better season it was just awesome to see.

4) What is next for your player? Will you be heading up to the VHL or sticking with the VHLM for a while longer?

I am moving up with the Seattle Bears next season and I am so excited for that. The World Juniors should be fun as crap as I'm playing with Ray and Jankowski for team Asia.

5) Do you think you have a shot at any awards this season? 

I mean I hope so but I wouldn't bet on it.

6) Who do you think was our MVP this season?

I couldn't name one the whole team played fantastic this season

7) What are you gonna do now that the season is done? Offseason plans? 
Probably just train my player and do well in the World Juniors. READY TO BRING BACK GOLD FOR ASIA BABY!

Yup! We drafted you this past season. You'll be drafted by a VHL team this offseason, but unless you go past 250 you'll likely stay down with us in the VHLM another season reach out if you have any other question!

1. No. Losing sucks. Not going to say otherwise.

 

2. No. We lost to the best. 

 

3. No idea. Not a part, dont follow.

 

4. See above.

 

5. No. Whatever. They probably saw me in the playoffs and decided no.

 

6. Determination to follow my own path

 

7. Probably the care bears

 

8. Maybe those edible Graham cracker or cookie bears. 

[2hawk 69]

1. I guess a little 

2. Yes! I was thinking if not us Houston. But that didn't happen.

3. Not sure. 

4. Not sure. 

5. Not that I'm aware of. (Maybe I secretly made a roster with out my knowledge)

6. Putting in the work 

7. I've never really thought about it so I don't really know 

8. I'll go with panda (shout out to Lehner)

 

[TheOGShark 29]

1. No. We should have beaten them. We were one of the best but the sim gods hate us.

2. No. I expected them to win after they humiliated us in the semi-finals.

3. Canada will win. I am on that team after all though. We have most of the Storm teammates on that team after all.

4. Canada again. Canada pretty much always wins in real life hockey. They did invent hockey after all.

5. Yes I was. I am being biased for my team but we are stacked and Canada pretty much always wins.

6. A combination of Natural talent and luck is the key to success.

7. The Bruins bear. I hate those kind of bears.

8. Polar bears are so pretty looking. They are being threatened to extinction though. #SaveThePolarBears

1.) In a small way, yes. Kinda makes it feel like it was sort of meant to be and there was nothing we could have done otherwise. But the sweep still stings though. 
 

2.) Yes? I never thought Mexico City would win it all this year, thought it was Houston’s to lose and we’d be the one to steal it away. 
 

3.) I’m on Europe with Idaho and Atreides so my vote goes to us. 
 

4.) Not sure about the World Cup as I haven’t gotten to that level yet. But go Europe?

 

5.) Yessir I was! Big honor. After being FISTED ANALLY BY A CIRCUS MONKEY the last time, I’m glad to get my one and only chance to do so. Let’s see if I can get lucky like Wolf Stansson Jr did. 

 

6.) I think it’s the only sport where fighting is allowed. That’s what kept it going even with those primitive ties. 
 

7.) Kodiak Bear? 
 

8.) Polar Bear?

2. Not having Tucker.

3. Not having Tucker.

4. Cookie dough.
5. A lot of something that’s pretty good.

6. Just good times.

7. This is VHLM Draft, but Jan Hlozek falling to 6th after Thad drafted his wife first overall (who has 30+ TPE less), looks like a steal for Miami.

[2hawk 69]

1 I got drafted last year

2  I don't know but right now we have only 4 players above 200 and its 2 on defense and 2 on offense so it's a tie.

3 I don't know but if we are the same as last year its definitely us getting to many penalties 

4 Vanilla and put anything I want in it.

5. A lot of something pretty good.

6. A time passer but not time waster 

7 I'm not sure. I didn't really follow this years draft because I wasn't In it.

Edited March 15, 2021 by 2hawk

[Garsh 1,087]

) How did the draft(s) treat you? Are you happy with where you ended up?
I think it went well, I had no idea where I would end up.  I'm happy to be here, I think we have a strong team.

2) What do you think is our biggest strength in this upcoming seaason?
It looks like we have a strong core of forwards.
 

3) Biggest weakness?
I think we need to shore up our D core a bit.
 

4) Favorite kind of ice cream to get?
I like a variety, but a cookies n cream is pretty awesome.

5) Speaking of ice cream, or just treats in general: do you like getting a lot of something that is pretty good, or a little bit of something that is AMAZING.
Probably getting a lot of something.
 

6) What are you hoping to get out of the VHL?

I mostly just use it as a place to chill, they hockey stuff in a fun bonus.
