(Answer Questions for 2 Capped TPE

 

 

1.  Mexico City is showing the fans some serious hockey fun with a 10.7% team average in goals/shot percentage.  What do you have to say to the hockey fans of Mexico City?

 

 

2.  Another question about GM Cole.  With all the success he has had at Mexico City, do you think Cole should elevate his GM experience to a VHL team or VHLE team?

 

 

3.  Captain Nugget continues to dominate the stats, is there any reason why Captain Nugget shouldn’t be the league MVP?

 

 

4.  Five Mexico City players dominate the skating leaderboard.  Does this display of dominance show hockey fans that this is a team to be reckoned with, and is it safe to say that every player on the team contributes to the leaderboard somehow?

 

 

5.  And then there is Ross Glagau, who leads VHLM goalies.  Is there any weakness on Mexico City?

 

 

6.  Keeping with the Mexico City theme, what is your favorite Mexican meal?

1 - They Deserve it, They've been great all season. This is only the beginning, we plan on having a parade at the end of all this if you know what I mean. 

 

2 - I think it's inevitable. Obviously, it depends on him but i think if he ever wants to, he'll do great. Also, is this your way of saying he needs to leave?

 

3 -  No. I mean maybe. Riggins is always an option if you know what i mean lol. 

 

4 - Yes and Yes. Mexico has been top of the league since puck drop on the first night of the season. We haven't taken our foot off th epedal and we don't intend to. Also, Every player on this team plays their role. In doing so they contribute in play, and in points. 

 

5- I would have said our Defense a little while back but Cole has gone out and brought in some help on the back end so right now, I don't theink there is any one weakness in this team.

 

6 - Burritos. Not the taco bell version, The real deal. There something so good about meat, cheese and refried beans that just makes me happy, and the rest of the locker room not so happy lol.

1- We did more than most people thought at the beginning of the season and we broke the Mexico City curse for Cole. I would say that is a great season. Yes, it sucks to lose in the finals but we went farther than 8 other teams. 

 

2- Hell ya I do. He led us to first overall and a 1st finals berth in his time as GM. If he doesn't win it then I say we protest the corrupt leadership of the voting committee!

 

3- It's a new intense training called couch time. You wake up and sit on the couch. Eat lunch and sit on the couch. do some treadmill, then sit on the couch. Repeat daily for 6 weeks.

 

4- Dog. I love our Siberian Husky. Alex is so cute and the best dong ever.

 

5- Edmonton. They have been the running joke of the league for so long and now seem to be putting pieces together. I don't think their there yet but they are getting there. I would also love for Jack Campbell to win a cup before the leafs get out of round 1 lol.

 

6- Coffee crisp. i could eat that all day.

Hey MEXICO!!!!!

 

Here are this week’s questions! 
 

1- With the VHLM Draft now over, how would you rate Coles job at the draft?

 

2- Cole went into the draft targeting Defensemen. This is a massive shift from what Gm Cole normally does. How do you think this will affect Mexico going into the season?

 

3 - It’s no secret Mexico wants to return to the Finals and finish what they missed last season, a championship. How close to that goal do you expect Mexico to get?

 

4- Mexico City has had 2 seasons of players at the top of the points leaders. Alex Stroheim 2 seasons ago and Captain Nugget and Tim Riggins last season. How many players do you think will be in the top 3 in points and who do you think it will be? 

 

5 - Did you watch the VHLM draft stream? What were your thoughts?

 

6- we tend to have a fun question at this point, something not so VHL minded. So with that said, the NHL season is coming to a close. What team really surprised you in a good way, or bad way, and why?

1. I think I did a fantastic job at the draft.. I mean, if I ended up saying I didn't that wouldn't look good!
2. I think it'll be an interesting strategy moving forward. I ended up going for defenseman because we're always an "offensive team", so I want to try something different!

3. I expect us to win the cup. I think anything less than that is a failure.

4. I think we will actually be a more defensive team this season, so I foresee nobody on our team top three due to this.

5. I did watch the VHLM Draft Stream as I was on it! It was a great time.

6. LETS GO BUFFALO BABY WE GONNA MAKE THE PLAYOFFS!!!!

1. Cole did his job very well, the team looks stacked, and ready to win the VHLM. Considering my overpowered player is 2nd line, the rest of the team has to be insane. 

2. I think Mexico will greatly improve from the newly rounded defensive core on this team. With this new strong D-core, we should give up fewer goals, and get more possesion time for the skilled forwards, like me. 

3. I fully expect us to win the championchip, anything short of this would be a dissapointment. Since I have joined the team, there is no way we will ever lose!

4. I will certainly be in the top 3 of points in this league, with my amazing passing, skating and puckhandling, no goalie or defenseman stands a chance. Whoever Cole puts on my line can expect to be a benefactor of my skills and make a push to be top 3 in points in the M. 

5. No, as a newly joined player I did not watch this draft. Will make an effort to watch it next season, as I will be an eligible player in this draft!

6. My personal favorite team the NJ Devils have surprised me in a positive way because we were low in the standings last season and are no 3rd in the entire league. While I knew we had a great young core, I wasn't sure our goaltender would be up to the task, he certainly was. Also, our young forwards have shows great progress, Hughes, Hischier, Bratt, and Mercer have had excellent season working with vets, like Palat and Tatar. The BMW line has produced energy and timely goals. Top 4 D have been much better than expected with the addition of John Marino, who is excellent and one of my new favorite players.

2. Defense is an important part of the game. I'm sure it'll work out well.

3. I'm not expecting close, I'm expecting the full thing.

4. Honestly got no clue, don't know enough about the league to have an opinion.

5. I would have if I knew there was one. Can't believe I missed it.

6. I couldn't even name an NHL team. Looked it up and apparently Wisconsin people support the Blackhawks which surprises me because they are in Chicago.

1. Terrible, @badcolethetitanshould be fired and I should take over immediately 

2. I think it's a good decision (especially since I'm the goalie lol) Should hopefully reduce scoring by the other teams and let the offense not have to be as stressed

3. We win easily. Expect a president's trophy and a founder's trophy no one is touching the kings.

4. Probably about the same we should be a team that puts up a lot of points.

5. I didn't unfortunately it was the only one I didn't catch so no thoughts.

6. Marco Kasper I was no expecting an NHL debut so quickly but I couldn't be happier about it.

1. I may be a bit bias but I think he did an amazing job at this seasons draft

2.  I think it will help keep the Goalie more at ease and allow us to reduce goals against us.

3. I think Mexico has what it takes to reach the Finals and take the championship

4. I hope we can snag all 3 spots but I think looking at my teammates we can easily achieve that

5. Unfortunately I wasn't able to catch it this season so I don't have any opinions but I will catch next seasons.

6. Don't really watch too much of the NHL but as I live near to Nashville I do wish the Preds had down a bit better. But I guess there is always next year.

(Answer Questions for 2 Capped TPE

 

 

1- With Mexico City Currently in first in the VHLM, Are you surprised at how fast the Kings have come out of the gate? Or was this expected?

 

2- How would you describe the Mexico City Locker room at this point of the season? Any internal Rivalries?

 

3- Historically both San Diego and Houston have been a thorn in Mexico City side. With San Diego just 4 points back of Mexico City, How does the team plan on holding them off in the standings?

 

4- Mexico City is currently 7-1-2 . They have not been blow-out in anytime and have only blown out 1 team in a 6-0 win. Do you think this is directly related to the drafting Cole did( drafting so many Defensemen) or is this just an adjustment period before the offence starts to blow teams out?

 

5- two of the returning platers lead the team in scoring. Justin Williams has 15 points while WJC gold medal winner Heffelfinger has 13. Will they continue to lead the team all season or will we see someone else take the lead?

 

6- How was Easter? Did the team do anything as a group or did everyone keep to themselves?
