1) Not worried about it. We're still a young and developing team, I certainly didn't expect us to hang around first place all season.

2) Nothing wrong with shaking the lines up some if we want.

3) I still think we'll finish middle of the pack in the EU side of things.

4) Trying to up DF some, then getting a few other skills to 85.

5) Yeah goalie is probably the toughest position, the last line of defense!

6) Not sure. I try to get in there but hardly anyone ever answers me aside from Spartan so I usually don't say much lol

[Knight 1,289]

4. How many pancakes does it take to fix a flat tire on a submarine?

As many acorns that it takes to fix a motherboard on a human. 
5. I think winning is fun. How do you compare this season to last season?

Winning is quite fun, I do enjoy it a little more when we're winning. Feels like you're accomplishing something together.
6. The lines were changed and for the most part it has had a positive impact. Do you have any thoughts about future changes?

Honestly stay with what works. Obviously there's a need to experiment a bit but if it's working then it's working.

[BOOM 8,758]

1. We hit a bit of a skill check this last week, what are your thoughts about it?

 

I'm currently getting drunk after not winning anything in the raffle, so my thoughts right now a re self-loathing, anger and pity.

2. Should we shake our lines up to see if any other line combo works?

 

Yes, RNG the lines and strats just for shits and giggles.

3. What position do you see us ending the season at?

 

69. Oh, approximately 2nd in Europe for some reason.

4. What have you been working on to improve your player?

 

Hahahahahahaha, good one.

5. I think being a goalie is the hardest position to play, do you agree?

 

I have never created a goalie, so therefore I am not qualified to comment.

6. It would be great to get more players active in the lr, any ideas how we get them involved?

 

Let me bring back a titty thread. At least the immature males would be engaged in there.

[jRuutu 2,464]

1. We hit a bit of a skill check this last week, what are your thoughts about it?

I blame the coaches, they work us too hard in practice; 9 am workouts? I make millions, I can not wake up that early.

2. Should we shake our lines up to see if any other line combo works?

Yes, but only if we do it honest and fair way via some kind of lottery.

3. What position do you see us ending the season at?

1st in the the league, and first in the hearts of all VHL fans.

4. What have you been working on to improve your player?

I put some points to checking and fighting, because I dropped the gloves with a bot in the last sim - I felt something, and I liked what I felt.

5. I think being a goalie is the hardest position to play, do you agree?

The real question is: how can we make being goalie even harder?

6. It would be great to get more players active in the lr, any ideas how we get them involved?

Use AI to create controversial material on each player and then threaten to leak the material to the whole VHL if the players are not active in the LR.

Presser for the week ending 2/11

1. Our new player sure has made the team better. What's your thoughts on this approach?
2. 16 game win streak. We all had a part to play in that streak. Does this get you even more excited?
3. A rental, in our case, was a good thing. Do you think we will need to go down that path next season?
4. I am really hyped about making the playoffs. What are you expectations about our chances for a cup?
5. Do you ever get bored and need some sort of boost to get some excitement in your day. What do you do?
6. Do you get a day to be lazy? I haven't had many lately but do you have a set day to chill?
 

[Knight 1,289]

4. What have you been working on to improve your player?

Skating. It's been a huge gainer because I hadn't put any points into it. 
5. I think being a goalie is the hardest position to play, do you agree?

There's the least room for flexibility. I think it can get very frustrating at times.
6. It would be great to get more players active in the lr, any ideas how we get them involved?

Just more shit talk really.

1) What approach? Adding good players? I mean it is working out it seems.

2) Yeah it's pretty cool, I thought we'd finish more in the middle of the pack but doing well is great!

3) Probably, Spartan seems pretty good on pulling those deals off.

4) I'm just going to enjoy the ride. I thought we'd finish lower so I'll go in with no expectations.

5) I don't know. I've been trying to find something to do for months, am frequently bored.

6) I do get a lot of time to be lazy but no set day.

[BOOM 8,758]

1. Our new player sure has made the team better. What's your thoughts on this approach?

 

He's adjusted well and deserves his time in the sun. Good player making contributions.

2. 16 game win streak. We all had a part to play in that streak. Does this get you even more excited?

 

I'm desensitized, so nothing gets me excited these days.

3. A rental, in our case, was a good thing. Do you think we will need to go down that path next season?

 

Truly no idea. Will depend on the management and what direction they take in the offseason to increase Moscow's chance of success.

4. I am really hyped about making the playoffs. What are you expectations about our chances for a cup?

 

I have zero expectations any more. Makes it easier when everyone/thing disappoints me.

5. Do you ever get bored and need some sort of boost to get some excitement in your day. What do you do?

 

I'm bored right now, and despite my best efforts and VHL appearance, am struggling to find the VHL interesting.

6. Do you get a day to be lazy? I haven't had many lately but do you have a set day to chill?

 

Nope. Every day has it's opportunities and it's whether I take those chances or not.

[jRuutu 2,464]

1. Our new player sure has made the team better. What's your thoughts on this approach?

Always good to bring older players in, they got the experience and then they can be sacrificed after the season to please Simon T.

2. 16 game win streak. We all had a part to play in that streak. Does this get you even more excited?

Shows we got a good balance in the lineup, all units can play in both ends of the ice, promises good things for the playoffs!

3. A rental, in our case, was a good thing. Do you think we will need to go down that path next season?

Perhaps, if there is a hole that needs to be filled and some nice option available, why not

4. I am really hyped about making the playoffs. What are you expectations about our chances for a cup?

We shall be victorious, other teams do not know what hit them!

5. Do you ever get bored and need some sort of boost to get some excitement in your day. What do you do?

I take my pants off and stand in front of the living room window.

6. Do you get a day to be lazy? I haven't had many lately but do you have a set day to chill?

I try to keep sundays as light as possible

I'd prefer to be hitting some ass, but yes, Moscow should feel confident in the VHL Playoffs this season.

1) Really impressed with how we did. I didn't think we'd maintain that level of play but we did, it's nice to see.

2) Not sure honestly but he should!

3) I am not a really superstitious person.

4) I think we're in for a tough battle in the first round but anything can happen once the playoffs roll around. Like Malmo getting swept!

5) I don't recognize any of his Spotify band names so I have no idea lol

6) I guess sort of yes. Had improvement again this year over last so that is always good. But I need to get my ass in gear and start doing some writing. I just hate it.

[jRuutu 2,464]

1. Did we kick some ass or what. How do you feel  going into the playoffs?

Hopes were and are high, one game at a time - should be an exciting run!

2. Do you think the coach will give us a pep talk before  we hit the ice?

Yes, but maybe we should put a mic on the coach, so they wont swear as much?

3. Do you have any superstitions or have any special routine you do before a game?

I find the nicest car on the parking lot and shoot a puck to the side of it. Often time the car is my own. I drive nice cars.

4. How do you feel about our chances in the playoffs? Will we go deep?

We will push game 7 and ride through HSK , then off to loooooooooooong run.

5. What does our coach like when it comes to music?

Gregorian chants

6. Do you feel good about your player? 

Yes, working on the fundamentals is starting to pay off! Next season should be a career best year so far!

3. It's my birthday on the 3rd, how old will I be?
4. Would it be fair to say that we put Moscow on the map during the season?
5. My player has a plan to really push defense up. Do you have a plan for your player?
6. I am going to kick back and relax during this offseason. What are your plans?
