(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?

1. The Kings did great last year but they did lose some pieces in between the seasons, but I always had a feeling that we would continue to succeed.

2. It's a fun atmosphere, I'm new but the place is very inviting, Ross' energy is always a welcome.

3. If we keep playing how we have been I don't see them being a big issue, changing our game plan for a specific team could throw us off.

4. Cole's drafting was very smart on his part but I feel it's more of an all around effort, but the defence of course is a bigger part of this team.

5. Willy and Hef have been fantastic so I'm not sure if anyone could catch them, of course everyone is very strong but they just play such a well rounded game that it might take til the end of the season to see them overthrown.

6. I personally kept to myself but I'm sure some of the others did stuff with each other, but my Easter was very relaxed.

1- It started really strong but has hit a small stutter, not a big one however.

2-Not amazing but I feel like he will grow the more I keep focusing on this wonderful league.

3-I feel it's just temporary set back, the team have all gotten adjusted and now are going full force.

4-Um, you will have to explain

5-No but I didn't expect to, my teammates that did make it I'm very proud of.

6-WE BEAT EDMONTON IN 6, MARK. MY. WORDS.

1. I think we've had a good first half of the season, maybe a game here or there we should've won but sometimes that's how it shakes out

2. He's doing pretty well, I wish he could get some more goals and assists but for my first full season I think its a good start.

3. I think its just a temporary set back. Teams have figured out their playstyle and starters so now it becomes a bit tougher but nothing we cant handle.

4. I mean sure he has to be doing a good job considering he drafted me.

5. Yeah I was fortunate to get picked for the All-star team and im happy I was skilled enough for them to choose me.

6. Sadly as a Preds fan the Playoffs are just a sad reminder for me. At this point Im rooting for Seattle cause I like their whole aesthetic

1. Good but not good enough. We gotta capitalize more on our chances and beat the top teams more frequently.
2. Really well top 3 goalie in the league and pushing for first is definitely where I want to be.
3. temporary fs we got this.
4. @badcolethetitan is a terrible gm anything under 1st place is a failure, He should resign and hand me the job. But in all seriousness, he's done a really good job of building us up to be a contender and I'm sure he'll have a shot at the Jack Reilly this season.
5. Yessir. It's pretty cool but definitely expected, 4 goalies make it and there are only 10 teams so as a capped goalie with our roster it would be pretty bad if I didn't make it
6. Seattle has been great can't cheer for any of my teams so I've been cheering for Seattle and they've done an amazing job so far.

1. I think we've had a great start to the season and I can't wait to see how many wins we can pick up!

2. My player isn't doing very good in the VHL, but my team is. I'm not that mad because of that.

3. I believe it's a temporary set back, we always coming in flying at the beginning and end.

4. Uh, I don't know. Go me!

5. No I didn't make it as my player is in the VHL. I think the all-star event will be fun and I'm the GM for one of the teams!

6. Well, I have the Bruins winning it all and they look good. So going well!

[Deluca 36]

 

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?

-This was expected, This team is a wagon and with my breakout year we will only be better

 

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

-No internal rivalries only winning atmosphere 

 

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?

- With my expert defence and Ross G's stud goaltending

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?

- Of course it has to be due to Cole drafting D men, We talked in pre draft and I told him Mexico was my only choice

 

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?

- Lets put some respect on my name for once VHLM , Williams is a star for this team but my breakout year this season will prove why my name needs to be brought up in these talks

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

Big easter dinner at "Scored 7 goals in a VHL games" house, guys a riot and the boys were loving it

[Jayhawk 93]

 

1- First off, Congrats on a great week to the entire Mexico City team. 10 game winning streak is no easy feat in this league and quite an accomplishment. To what do you attribute this amazing run?

 

2- At the start of the season, everyone expected the Kings to be more of a defensive team, all the attention on Defense at the draft made everyone think Mexico would be in a lot of lower-scoring games. Yet the Kings lead the league in goals for, What are your thoughts on this? 

 

3- There is a battle at the top of Mexico's Conference. San Diego seems to be ( and has always been ) the team to give Mexico a hard time. Would you consider them a direct Rival to the Kings? Or is there another team ( Maybe Miami, Las Vegas, or Houston) that you consider a bigger rival?

 

4- It's Retro week here in VHL as a whole. But we want to know on a personal level ( PLAYER LEVEL ) who would you consider to be your rival? Are they on your team or playing somewhere else? 

 

5- Don't look now but we are approaching the 40-game mark! That can only mean one thing, TRADE-DEADLINE!!!!! Are you expecting GM Cole to make some moves? If so what moves are you wanting? If not, what?

 

6- It's also that time of the week for the non-SHL life. question. LA Kings ( the "not better than Mexico" kings)put up an amazing fight against Edmonton, keeping the best current player more or less contained. However, they now sit on the brink of elimination. Do you think they can come back and take the series? or is it done for those Kings? ( you know, The ones who are in the Shadow of the Mexico City Kings?)

1- This streak was only possible with entire team, there is no one person that I could credit with bring us this far, it definitely goes to the whole team.

2-I feel we still play a great two way game, the defense is still very much here but I feel like the offence has just seen a nice explosion that has really benefited us.

3-San D is the only team I would consider a direct rival, the bring a nice counter game that I really enjoy going up against.

4-I haven't been here long enough to say I have any rivals here but I always like to think that my linemates and I have a small bit a rivalry even if they don't agree

5-I don't think Coleh will want to move much of anything seeing as we are in a good place and the chemistry of this team has been fantastic, but that is just what I hope.

6-I always cheer for any Kings so I really do hope that the come back and slay the beast that is McD and Dris (I'm a big Kings fan)

1-I like to think i've contributed some goals and assists but the winning streak is a team effort and not so much a solo effort from any one player.

2-I feel like it shows that Mexico is ready to play a two-way game by being explosive on the attack and smart on the defense.

3-I really think San Diego is our biggest rival as they have found ways to punch holes in our defense.

4-I doubt I have real rival as i'm still new to the league, but I mean there is always rivalry among me and my teammates to score.

5- I personally think we as a team are doing great and working well together, one or two trades may or may not hurt or benefit us.

6- I'm hoping the Kings can  pull it back.

1. Cole getting us a banger of a team and everyone continuing to update and get better
2. We just too good I guess can't stop the kings
3. Yup they're the enemy I hate every single one of them especially their goalie @fonziGG
4. @fonziGG I stg he's bribing simonT just a trash player and trash member  (jk) 
5. Probably not just stick with what works we on top for a reason
6. I think Edmonton will win (definitely didn't do the presser after they did)

[Deluca 36]

First off, Congrats on a great week to the entire Mexico City team. 10 game winning streak is no easy feat in this league and quite an accomplishment. To what do you attribute this amazing run?

- Williams, Me , ROSS G

2- At the start of the season, everyone expected the Kings to be more of a defensive team, all the attention on Defense at the draft made everyone think Mexico would be in a lot of lower-scoring games. Yet the Kings lead the league in goals for, What are your thoughts on this? 

- My thoughts are not a single VHLM GM but Cole scouted proper, My d mans TPE should have shown he was a Two way with offensive upside and Cole saw this and took me even when I dropped from other teams, Williams as well is a wagon on offence buddy is a snipeshow and best forward in the league. 

3- There is a battle at the top of Mexico's Conference. San Diego seems to be ( and has always been ) the team to give Mexico a hard time. Would you consider them a direct Rival to the Kings? Or is there another team ( Maybe Miami, Las Vegas, or Houston) that you consider a bigger rival?

- There div rivals for first  but hounds are the main rivals after last szns finals , us returning guys want the cup bad

4- It's Retro week here in VHL as a whole. But we want to know on a personal level ( PLAYER LEVEL ) who would you consider to be your rival? Are they on your team or playing somewhere else? 

- My personal rival is Magnus Carlsen on my team as I believe with the Captains C I can lead us to the promised land

5- Don't look now but we are approaching the 40-game mark! That can only mean one thing, TRADE-DEADLINE!!!!! Are you expecting GM Cole to make some moves? If so what moves are you wanting? If not, what?

- I think maybe a few but hopefully only some depth as our team has great chemistry

6- It's also that time of the week for the non-SHL life. question. LA Kings ( the "not better than Mexico" kings)put up an amazing fight against Edmonton, keeping the best current player more or less contained. However, they now sit on the brink of elimination.

Oilers nearly blew it but congrats for there series win was an insane watch, Draisaitl is a monster no doubt

1- Mexico has some games coming up against non-playoff teams. What would you consider a successful stretch against these teams?

 

2- who on Mexicos roster would you consider as a nominee for MVP?

 

3- final 20 games of the season. Mexico is all but clinched their ticket. Are you looking forward to the playoffs or are you still focused on the rest of the season?

 

4- Cole normally starts to tinker with his lineup at this point of the season. Stuff like playing a rookie goalie the rest of the way. Are you ok with Coles tactics? Or do you question his intentions?

 

5-  We are quickly approaching the end of the season. Given your CURRENT stats, what are your targets to end the seasons?

 

6- now that round 2 has started in the NHL. Give me your prediction between Toronto and Florida.

6- now that round 2 has started in the NHL. Give me your prediction between Toronto and Florida.

1- A successful stretch is taking a majority, I don't think a full sweep is possible so just a good solid 80%-90% win rate would be fine.

2- Tough choice, many people can win it but Williams, Ross, and Roux Jr are tied for me.

3- The regular season should still take priority as focusing solely on the playoffs will throw our grove off, but I think we should begin to get into that goove a bit.

4- I think Cole is smart for doing this as it may allow the lines to get better connected and may result in some better chemistry all around, maybe some later stars may appear.

5- Just about 15p on the season with a nice spit of 7g's and 8a's

6- 7 games no question, hard fought but Toronto might just edge out given the balance of the middle 6, Florida has a good team but weak bottom 6. In short Toronto in 7

we have to win most of these games to get a better serd

 

2- who on Mexicos roster would you consider as a nominee for MVP?

I have done very good, but Alex and Ross have also been doing very well at there respective jobs, allowing for a good defense, offense and goaltending. Me and Roux have been a nice duo

 

3- final 20 games of the season. Mexico is all but clinched their ticket. Are you looking forward to the playoffs or are you still focused on the rest of the season? I need to get top 3 in points again

 

4- Cole normally starts to tinker with his lineup at this point of the season. Stuff like playing a rookie goalie the rest of the way. Are you ok with Coles tactics? Or do you question his intentions?

I think this is very good since I have been suggesting line changes myself

5-  We are quickly approaching the end of the season. Given your CURRENT stats, what are your targets to end the seasons? 

3rd in points and 11th all time in Mexico City Points

6- now that round 2 has started in the NHL. Give me your prediction between Toronto and Florida. Florida will win

(Answer Questions for 2 Capped TPE

1- What is your take on Mexico City’s season so far?

 

2- How’s your player doing this season. Are you satisfied with your performance so far?

 

3- In good Kings fashion, the “mid-season” is always a point of slowing down for Mexico City. Do you feel like this is the beginning of a struggle or just a temporary set back.

 

4- In your opinion, why is Cole so good at his job?

 

5- The All-star team has named its rosters, did your player make it to the all-star spectacle? How do you feel about it?

 

6- Alright, NHL playoffs have begun? Everyone has played at least 1 game. Is your choice team doing well so far?

1. Good but could be better. Not gonna be mad at being first most of the season and still being in the race but I feel we should have had a further gap by now from mississauga and sdm.

 

2. Disappointed to be honest. Not a bad season but being 200tpa for the entirety of it on a top 3 team and not being closer to the top goalie is definitely not what I was expecting.

 

3. Temporary setback we got this. This is the year I'm feeling it. We got everything we need just gotta hope simon is kind to us.

4. Feel like I've answered this one a couple of times lol. In my opinion, @badcolethetitan is overrated af just purely lucky. He should honestly quit and give me the team while he's ahead 

 

5. Yup, Pretty fun event although they didn't give Glagau a game in the actual all-star games which was disappointing but the save streak was good.

 

6. Riding for Seattle since my teams are out. They have been great so far hopefully they can go all the way

[Deluca 36]

1. Mexico City is a new team and city for some of you, and for others it’s your second season. How does it feel to either be here for the first time or coming back for a second? It feels amazing to be back in Mexico City, Told many of the other VHLM Gms that Mexico was my preferred spot
2. What are your goals for this season? my Goals this season were to hit new career highs in every statistic and most importantly win the cup with Mexico, This team has given me a shot and I want to repay that
3. The offseason has brought in new management. How does this change make you feel for the future of Mexico City? We brought in a new AGM but still we have the legend Cole who truly is the VHLM GOAT
4. If you had to pick a training partner for this season, who out of your new teammates would it be? Out of the new players? Probably our backup Andrei Vasilevskiy, With a name like that he's got to be set for greatness
5. What’s your favorite animal? - Whales 
6. If you had to be drafted, or redrafted today, which VHL team would you want to be drafted by? (This is a great opportunity to look into the VHL teams.) Redrafted?????? No way Id pick anyone but London and Mexico, Two best teams around 

[Jayhawk 93]

 

1- Games left in the regular season. The playoff hunt is over as Mexico has a playoff spot locked. However, the fight for playoff seed is in full effect as Mexico City and San Diego battle it out for 1st in the conference. A simple 1 point separates the 2. Should Mexico finish 2nd, they will have to face Houston, a team that has given Cole and the Kings a hard time for the last few seasons. How confident are you that Mexico can Beat Houston in a seven-game series?

 

2- During the last 8 games of the season, Mexico plays San Diego twice and Houston twice. With half the resining Games having Playoff implications, What is the most comfortable outcome for Mexico?

 

3- Mexico City has the best Powerplay in the league, running at 25%. They also have the 3rd best Penalty Kill behind San Diego and Mississauga, two teams ahead of them in the overall standings. Which do you think is more important Powerplay or penalty kill and why?

 

4- Justin Williams is now 4 points back of league leader Tullemore drew for the most points. Is getting to number 1 a team mission now or is it every man for him/herself?

 

5- Gm Cole has achieved another 40-win Season, That’s at least 5 seasons in a row. How impressive is that feat, and should Cole go down as the greatest VHLM Gm to not win a cup ( Yet )?

 

6- The NHL playoffs have seen the top teams struggle and fall out of the playoffs early. Boston, Colorado, Toronto ( Almost out ).  Yet teams like Seattle and Florida (who just made it in) are playing like they can go all the way. In terms of VHLM, What teams make you worry about what playoff run they can go on?

However, the fight for playoff seed is in full effect as Mexico City and San Diego battle it out for 1st in the conference. A simple 1 point separates the 2. Should Mexico finish 2nd, they will have to face Houston, a team that has given Cole and the Kings a hard time for the last few seasons. How confident are you that Mexico can Beat Houston in a seven-game series?

 

2- During the last 8 games of the season, Mexico plays San Diego twice and Houston twice. With half the resining Games having Playoff implications, What is the most comfortable outcome for Mexico?

 

3- Mexico City has the best Powerplay in the league, running at 25%. They also have the 3rd best Penalty Kill behind San Diego and Mississauga, two teams ahead of them in the overall standings. Which do you think is more important Powerplay or penalty kill and why?

 

4- Justin Williams is now 4 points back of league leader Tullemore drew for the most points. Is getting to number 1 a team mission now or is it every man for him/herself?

 

5- Gm Cole has achieved another 40-win Season, That’s at least 5 seasons in a row. How impressive is that feat, and should Cole go down as the greatest VHLM Gm to not win a cup ( Yet )?

 

6- The NHL playoffs have seen the top teams struggle and fall out of the playoffs early. Boston, Colorado, Toronto ( Almost out ).  Yet teams like Seattle and Florida (who just made it in) are playing like they can go all the way. In terms of VHLM, What teams make you worry about what playoff run they can go on?

 

1. I'm very confident we can beat anyone in a 7 game series, Houston is no different ignore the stigma and beat them up.
2. Easy win everything place 1st and beat down everyone again in the playoffs. 
3. PK for sure I mean you gotta capitalize on your powerplay opportunities don't get me wrong but preventing goals should come first.
4. Obviously I'd want Williams to win but that shouldn't be a priority when the standings are so tight currently. Focus on winning the games and hopefully getting the most points comes along with it.
5. All this glazing up Cole makes me sick smh. Although that is hella impressive cool to see someone consistently at the top without tanking.
6. None, we got this. This ain't S74 we gonna win it all.

1 Mexico will win

2 we win

3 We need to ensure a good power play so we can gain the lead

4. I got first through a tiebreaker because of my goals 

5. This is the year

6.We got the best overall team and great playoff experience

1- Well the Playoffs are here and the Kings have blown right through the first round. What was your take on the first round?

 

2- Round 2 projects to be much harder for the Kings. What’s your breakdown of this rounds opponent 

 

3- Are you paying any attention to the other conference during these playoffs? 

 

4- In honour of Zetterberg, is Cole going to cost the kings another title this season?

 

5- how has your player performed through the first round of the playoffs? Are they playing at their best or still trying to find their feet?

 

6- The NHL now has its final 4. Carolina be Florida. And Dallas vs Vegas. Who do you think make it to the greatest ice show on earth, The Stanley Cup finals?

1. Gonna be tough 3-1 rn got lucky in the second sim cause of how trash of a goalie SDM has. I'm hopeful we are just as good if not better and only need 1 to get to the finals.
2. SDM is a tough opponent gonna have to pull out all the stops. We can't let them reverse sweep 3 games, 1 win, that's all we need.
3. Of course gotta keep tabs on that fraud of a GM @vincentlg2007 to see if he gets lucky and we get to destroy the Hounds in the finals.
4. He's trying his hardest, the lines he sent in had us outshot 46-28 we got lucky that our team is a bunch of studs who don't stop fighting till the end. @badcolethetitan despite how genuinely terrible you are at your job the kings are gonna get you a founders cup!!!
5. Glagau is popping off right now. He knows it's his last chance at a founders cup and he is playing like it.
6. After Seattle got knocked out I stopped caring about it. Such a boring list of teams but if I had to guess Vegas vs Carolina and Vegas wins.

1- The first was a very uneven match in our favor, but I have a feeling that everyone didn't want to take any chances and just dialed in, no matter the opponent.

2- SD is a great team but this team is just so well rounded I don't see us failing to produce like we did in Round 1.

3- I am, very interesting to see if an upset happens or if the projected team wins, personal it's nice to get a feel for everyone.

4- Cole is a strong GM, I see us making it under his leadership, no matter Zed think.

5- Mikko is still getting used to the playoffs but still has numbers and is helping people Willams and Roux Jr produce and that's what matters to me.

6- Every final 4 has meaning to but I think a heavyweight match up of the Canes and Knight would be so cool.

1. I think it was bit of an unfair matchup. I also feel bad because we’ve now beat down Vegas twice in two seasons.

2. I feel like the Marlins are a really good team and we’ll have to bring our A-game.

3. Yes, it’ll be interesting to see who we play!

4. Yeah, this GM sucks.

5. Well, Yasilievich is going off right now with 13 points!

6. Florida and Dallas. It will be a banger.

1-First off, Congrats Mexico City on one hell of a run and a great season! No matter what happens, it’s been a memorable one.To what do you attribute the success of this season?

 

2- Championship Finals, most imagine it as a grand moment in their careers that will live on forever in their minds. Was this everything you imagined it to be? 

 

3- I know everyone expected Mississauga to make the finals, but whoever makes it pretty much deserves to be there. What was your take on facing Philadelphia or do you think Mississauga would have been a closer final?

 

4-Cole has gone his whole VHLM GM career never having won a championship until now. Dispute that he has kept Mexico competitive every season he has been GM. Does a championship lock his spot in the VHLM hall of fame?

 

5-Looking back on this season, what is your biggest take-away? 

 

6- To say the NHL playoffs has been underwhelming is a massive understatement. It looks like Vegas and the Panthers will more than likely meet in the Stanley Cup finals. How surprised are you by this?
