Moscow Menace Press Conference

[Knight 1,337]

Another Moscow legend, Jarmo Ruutu, is retiring at the end of this season. What mark do you feel he has left on the franchise?

@jRuutu is an absolute legend and will be remembered as such. Greatest Moscow player of this generation.

How would you expect fans to react to the final regular season game for Ruutu and Obuz?

They won't give them a send off because they have business to do in the playoffs. They'll play their final game celebrating a championship.

Should we dodge (or should we have dodged) the victory Cup?

Naw get those trophies on the player pages, it looks better! There's nothing you can do to avoid Simon's randomness anyway.

Would your player argue with fans on social media?

He stays the hell away from social media. Probably because he'd spend countless hours arguing with fans.

Which team do you think would have the most annoying fans to argue with?

There's something about the Seattle Bears that makes me feel like they'd have the most annoying fans. Who's with me?

How would you try to assert yourself with opponents on the ice in our first playoff game?

Go and score early and often. Can't let the goalies get into a routine. You can physically impose on the other team later in the series if you have to, but it's imperative to score early.

6. How would you try to assert yourself with opponents on the ice in our first playoff game?

1. Congrats to him on his retirement! He has really left his mark on the franchise!

2. Probably just general disappointment as they all have wanted to see Obuz traded for at least 12 seasons.

3. We won it! Might as well break a curse!

4. They don't have any social media for the safety of fans as it would be violent

5. Davos, their GM is a prick.

6. just a two handed cup check to whoever is in front of the net.

Preas Conference for S98 Playoffs Week 1.5:

1. We have Davos yet again, but we're off to a hot start. Is this the strongest rivalry in the VHL?
2. Maverick starts the playoffs hot with a game 2 hatty in an 8 goal game for the Menace. What has this offense coming out swinging?
3. Do you prefer any specific opponent in the upcoming round(s)?
4. Do you ambush any teammates with smelling salts on the bench?
5. What's your pregame meal?
6. How would you prank @Spartan  on road trips?

1. I think the CGY/SEA rivalry has more to it, but MOS/DAV isn't far off!

2. I think it's really hard to line match us. We have enough firepower that if they try to cut off one line, the other comes swinging. That game it seems as though they couldn't stop either unit.

3. I think I'd prefer HSK. I think they're not quite as cohesive as a group yet as RIG is.

4. I always try to make sure River is alert and ready, but it's mostly just messing with OCO.

5. Under-ripe banana, some day old rice, and a boatload of ground beef. An avocado cubed in there, and some sriracha for kick.

6. I leave the pranking to Grape, he's never been traded to WAR, so he must know how to play the line at this point.

1. I think MOS/RIG is stronger in the EU, but there are NA conference rivalries that feel deeper overall.

2. Sibling power, both of them have 4 goals in 2 games. What can you do when the siblings are playing out their final ride together before Catia retires?

3. There's no weak opponents in the playoffs. Even the "worst" playoff team in LDN managed to take a game off Davos in a shutout.

4. Obuz definitely ambushes me with something in his hand, salty, but don't think it's smelling salts....

5. The blood and tears of my opponent. But realistically varies a bit, can't be opposed to a nice sandwich or some salmon and pasta.

6. I don't really think you could prank me, but I could certainly get the bus into a tizzy if I get on aux.

Another Moscow legend, Jarmo Ruutu, is retiring at the end of this season. What mark do you feel he has left on the franchise?

 

Terrific player that has helped the Menace to stay a force in the VHL for an extended period of time.

How would you expect fans to react to the final regular season game for Ruutu and Obuz?

 

If it's on home ice, I expect there will be Stoli bottles and Putin fridge magnets raining down from the stands.

Should we dodge (or should we have dodged) the victory Cup?

 

I haven't checked the index for half a season, did you win it?

Would your player argue with fans on social media?

 

No, he's more likely to just straight out threaten them.

Which team do you think would have the most annoying fans to argue with?

 

The Americans....have you ever met a New Yorker that's wrong?

How would you try to assert yourself with opponents on the ice in our first playoff game?

 

Well that playoff game has come and gone for Adi, and he barely made a whimper. Maybe game 3 he does something useful
