RIGA REIGN PRESS CONFERENCE

March 10th, 2024

1. Are you ready for the season to start or want the offseason to go longer?

2. Did you pay attention to the draft? If so, any surprises for you?

3.  Here's a good opportunity to welcome our new prospects @LucyXpher @horoscope and @fonziGG

4.  Do you expect Riga to be busy in free agency?

5. Are you paying attention to the VHL's World Cup of Hockey?

6. Now in the dog days of the NHL season, are you ready for playoffs to start?

1. Right now, the season starting in April would be best for me. Lasr two weeks of March is going to be a busy time for me.

2. Due to stuff on my end, didn't get a chance to pay attention to the draft.

3. @LucyXpher and I are the management team in Halifax so it is good to see her here. @horoscope and @fonziGG are solid users who should bring a lot to the table.

4. Not really. One player two at most.

5. As a likely participant, I will try.

6. I am ready for the Pens season to end and for some good playoff hockey.

1. I really didn't. That day is associated with some sad memories. That puts a damper on my enthusiasm to celebrate.

2. Shubham is back in Riga with Mina and is starting to work his way back into shape.

3. Some key resigning and rookie signings. Nothing too crazy.

4. To take a significant step up this season.

5. I didn't get a chance to follow either draft.

6. More fun and more hard work outside. Better than being stuck inside all day.

6. What is your favorite type of restaurant to try on the road?

1. Fantastic. Above a point per game is far better than I ever could have imagined.

2. We have 3 players above a point per game. And I am leading the team in points? Is that for real?

3. That is partly my fault. I have been busy this week doing something important. Everything should be back to normal now.

4. There is always hope and excitement at the start of a new season.

5. Sooner is better. Almost no point in writing a presser Wednesday or later.

6. Chinese buffet always good.

1 - Not much can be done besides practice more and progress more.  We're still a young team.

2 - Heard he was great for Riga but I didn't get to play with AK.  He's already missed around here though.

3 - Yeah we can get some goals, but they come in bunches.  We will have goal scoring droughts.

4 - No.  He's young too like most of us.  We will get there.

5 - Getting my first VHL goal and overtime game winner so far.

6 - I don't watch baseball anymore.

RIGA REIGN PRESS CONFERENCE

April 7th, 2024

1. This seems like one of the toughest seasons Riga has had - how do you feel?

2. Our long beloved GM @hedgehog337 is stepping down. Lets give him a nice sendoff for his hard work!

3.  Have you found any positives out of this season?

4.  Would you be ready for the team to start selling now?

5. What do you do to take the mind off the game when the team is in a rough patch?

6.The NHL Eastern Conference has a battle for the last playoff spot - who do you think will get it?

[Will3 413]

1. Loosing the way that we have always hurts. But it is moments like this that prove what kind of man you really are.

2. Thank you for everything you have done and helping me get started in this league.

3. I am still producing goal and assists at a consistency rate.

4. As the best piece available, my days in Riga are probably numbered.

5. If things are becoming too stressful, Shubham goes out on a romantic day with his wife.

6. Surprisingly, my Pittsburgh Penguins. There are the only team to not collapse nearing the conclusion of the season.

1 - Yeah, it's not like we aren't trying... we're just getting outclassed at the minute.

2 - It would be great to get him something worth remembering, honestly.  He put this team together and we have some promise, so maybe he gets his reward later.

3 - Yeah.  How to not suck.  We need more reps in practice with time.

4 - It's a business so I have no clue what management plans on doing.

5 - I like to drive cars around racetracks!  It's a hobby for me so the world around me disappears.

6 - I'm rooting for Pittsburgh to get in. That core is on their last legs on borrowed time so one last crack for them would be nice to see.
