Seattle Bears Press Conference


Recommended Posts

46. What are your thoughts on the team adding Soren Jensen ( @Velevra )?

I like the move, Jensen is a quality player and has all the experience in the world. I imagine that experience especially will help our younger players as they get to see how a true professional gets ready for games/practice and how he competes.

 

47. What did you get up to for Valentines Day?

I did not do anything. I'm a single man.

 

48 What did you do on Valentines Day?

I went out for a nice run and relaxed at home. Easy Sunday pretty much.

 

49. What were your thoughts on the VHL's trade deadline (Feb 15)?

There has been some trades leading up to the trade deadline, but nothing right on the last minute. The trades earlier were pretty big ones, multiple players moving around, so perhaps there wont be any last minute moves.

 

50. What could the VHL do for theme week next week?

''What grinds your gears?''. Theme week that lets the users vent on whatever they want.

 

51. Malmo, London, Riga... which team make the playoffs? What teams miss?

The mentioned trades saw Malmo I guess going for rebuild, so I would say they wont make it. Riga got stronger during the trade deadline, so my guess is Riga makes it and London joins Malmo in the not making it corner.

46. What are your thoughts on the team adding Soren Jensen ( @Velevra)?

WHAT A BEAST! YES! FUCKING EXCITED MAN! Can't wait to play alongside hiM!

 

47. What did you get up to for Valentines Day?

Sat on my couch and watched sports. Sure I spent the day with my wife. I spend every day with my wife. It's a lockdown during a pandemic - I can't do anything else! 

 

49. What were your thoughts on the VHL's trade deadline (Feb 15)?

I was a little busy so I didn't really follow up with what was happening. Looks like we added Soren, which is so key and hopefully that can give us the edge on some of the top teams. 

 

50. What could the VHL do for theme week next week?

I thought I had missed theme week? Did I not? Was I reading about last season's theme week? What year is this? What season is this? Who am I ? ohhhhhh god no, not again!

 

 

53. What season will LA make the playoffs?

S77. LA will get there act together and just take the fuck off. It's going to surprise us all. Except me... but no, even me because I'll have forgotten that I made this prediction. 

 

55. What is something PRE-Covid that you can't wait to do again when safe etc?

Work out at a gym. All the specialized pieces of equipment are so expensive, and to truly get a well rounded workout you need to hit all the heads and angles. I can't wait to get back,.

Rent free baby lol

 

41. Timothy Brown @a_Ferk has the team highest shooting % with 11.84%. How do they practice?
Dusk til dawn, the man never sleeps. Although I feel like that wouldn't be good in the long term...


43. @gregreg made some wild demands in the LR to make him happy... Rumour has it beer machine, hot tub... what else?
Better be a bubble hockey table in there somewhere

50. What could the VHL do for theme week next week?

They did something pretty lame again my opinion. Hopefully it's good next season.

51. Malmo, London, Riga... which team make the playoffs? What teams miss?

London and Malmo suck. I bet Prague makes it over Riga though. big gap in points, even with the trades Riga made.

52. Who is the most overrated player in the league? Will you tag them? ;) 

Jeffrey Pines @rory

53. What season will LA make the playoffs?

56. How do you feel the Bears season went?

"Feels like it could have been better, we never seem to find a groove. Just sat around .500 most of the year and I think the team in better than that. We got into the dance thought so lets see if we can do some damage!!!"

57. Who was the Bears MVP? Feel free to name up to 3 ;) 

"Brown did pretty much all the scoring so you'd have to give it to him with a slight nod to LOL for his strong season on defence."

58. Which team surprised you the most in the VHL?

"Seattle for how average we were and to be honest I don't look at any other team other than Seattle."

59 Which team surprised you the most in the VHLM?

"Saskatoon Wild, mostly because they're still a team in the VHLM."

60. What are your thoughts on playing Calgary in a best of 5 in round 1?

"Thanks for the easy first round and letting me score some point. bring on the next bunch of losers."

61. @Jubis stepped down. Name some members who you think deserve the role! 

"Me! easy. You want to VHL to have some true rivalries? Get me back in a front office and let me cause some shit."

1. How do you feel the Bears season went?

Up and down - we definitely lost some games we should have won, but overall we have a vibrant and younger team so I think we're set for the future, even if this year isn't our year 

 

2. Which team surprised you the most in the VHL?

Probably Chicago - to see them finish with the third best record in the league after only being a couple of seasons old as a franchise is a pretty impressive feat. Let's see how they cope in the playoffs though 

 

3 What are your thoughts on playing Calgary in a best of 5 in round 1?

2ez. We're 2gud. We'll make quick work of them.

 

4. @Spartakiller2 Guy Lambert finished the season with 97 points in 72 games.. This is a 90 point improvement of last seasons totals (7 in 52). You sent him a text. What did you tell them?

"Guyyyyyyyyyy. I'm hoping to be you next season - but I finished with 4 points and next season I'm gunning for 100 so I think we'll both win most improved.. I was more improver. Gratz buddy!"

 

5. I just noticed Phoenix Dawson @Toast tied Guy Lambert for points. There's some competition. They made a bet. What was the wager??

"Let's see if we can rig it so that gorlab has something to say about it." trolololol

 

6. @aksuko finished the season 31-31-7. HUGE IMPROVEMENT and Role increase! To celebrate and reward himself... he spent some of his earned cash.. what did they buy?

A Mercedes XL. Understated and classy... until he had them paint it magenta!

53. What season will LA make the playoffs?

Who knows, they were not that far away this year, only 9 points away. If they get Davis in the lineup for next season, I'm sure he could push them closer and maybe even make the playoffs!

 

54. What's something you want to see more of in the VHL?

Proper rivalries between teams, I'm sure there are some already, but in my opinion there is never too many or too fierce rivalries between teams.

 

55. What is something PRE-Covid that you can't wait to do again when safe etc?

Maybe see some kind of public performance, theater or something.

 

56. How do you feel the Bears season went?

Pretty well I'd say, made the playoffs and had some nice winning streaks in there, so good stuff!

 

57. Who was the Bears MVP? Feel free to name up to 3 ;) 

Brown obviously, 40+ goals and most points. Leveque in defense was a key player, 61 points and 50 of those being assists in 72 games is great.  Rasputin in net was good also, not easy for young goalies to play that much in the modern VHL, but he played well!

 

58. Which team surprised you the most in the VHL?

Warsaw and/or Chicago, both had over 100 points in regular season.

59 Which team surprised you the most in the VHLM?

Might not count as a surprise for most, but seeing how Houston was able to win 61 games out of 72 was a surprise to me. Hell of a record right there! Especially impressive was their away record 32-4.

 

60. What are your thoughts on playing Calgary in a best of 5 in round 1?

Answering late, but they are a good team, the series had all the makings for intense battle and I think we had that, was a good one.

 

61. @Jubis stepped down. Name some members who you think deserve the role! 

I don't know really, who is interested in being a general manager? Someone from the active group of users.

 

Oilmandan's Qs:

 

Who is the next big thing in the VHL?

Rasputin in net is going to be among the best goalies in this league real soon.

 

Can a team go undefeated in this year's playoffs. Who and what made yo choose the Bears?

Bear is an alfa animal, they can do whatever they want out there, which is similar to what the Seattle Bears is in VHL, they can do what they want. Going undefeated is a real possibility.

 

What is the best "name" in the VHL or VHLM?

New York has a goalie named ''Bacon''. I think that is pretty nice name.

65. What are your plans for the weekend?
Didn't get up to too much. Relaxed and played some games. Looking forward to the days where the pandemic is behind us and I can do things on the weekend again.
 

66. Who will win... Chicago or Warsaw?
Chicago just won tonight! 
 

67. Who will win... Mexico or Houston?
It went all the way to seven games but Mexico managed to win!
 

68. Who will win playoff MVP for VHL?
Mikko Lahtinen played fantastic throughout the post-season. 27 points definitely should get the nod.

 

69. What should the Bears do this off-season?
The team is in a good spot. I would not be surprised to the see the Bears move some youth for players in their prime.

 

70. @Velevra had another good career. He's retiring. How do you bid them farewell?
Velv has been around sim leagues for quite some time. I'm looking forward to seeing his new player as I know he'll find a way to build another successful guy.

I did fuck all. Just played skyrim and did sim league stuff.
 

66. Who will win... Chicago or Warsaw?
I have a hunch it might be Chicago
 

67. Who will win... Mexico or Houston?
Mexico finally slayed the dragon and took home the Founder's Cup. All it took was rory and hylands leaving.
 

68. Who will win playoff MVP for VHL?
Can someone who didn't even make the finals win it? Lahtinen dwarfed everyone in points.

 

69. What should the Bears do this off-season?
I think we should make some moves and try and get back into cup contention.

 

70. @Velevra had another good career. He's retiring. How do you bid them farewell?
Will be interesting to see what his next player turns out like.

65. What are your plans for the weekend?

I did not have anything planned out, same old same old really. Weather was nice, cold and sunny so it was pretty nice to both take it easy inside but also run around outside.

 

66. Who will win... Chicago or Warsaw?

I was hoping it would go to game seven but... Chicago was better and deserved their win, they had a strong team and managed to take the lead in the series early.

 

67. Who will win... Mexico or Houston?

Both are strong teams, but was a small surprise to see Houston lose since they were so strong away during regular season.

 

68. Who will win playoff MVP for VHL?

I reckon they have to give it to someone from Chicago since they won it all. If that is the case, Camus in net. Can't win without having a hot goalie and Camus was solid in the playoffs. 12 wins from 15, and 93.1 save percentage.

 

69. What should the Bears do this off-season?

Go into the woods together and spend some quality Bears time together. In other words, training camp in the woods!

 

70. @Velevra  had another good career. He's retiring. How do you bid them farewell?

I gave Velevra couple sticks that had my signature on them. Worthless now, but could return a hefty sum in 30 to 40 years. Almost like investing into the stock market in a sense. Some day those sticks could buy you a nice vacation!

1. What are your thoughts on the Chicago Phoenix winning the Continental Cup?

My thoughts are CONGRATULATIONS CHICAGO!!!! It's always exciting to see a franchise get it's first Continental Cup. Except Stocking Vikings. Fuck those guys.

 

2. Thoughts on @Beaviss stepping down? What did you get him as a "thank you" gift?

HE:S WHAT?>?> This is what we get when I dont go on the site for 6 days?? Oh boy. Well the lad must have his reasons. He's been so involved for so many seasons, it's probably a great thing for him. I'll give him a banner in the Seattle Locker room. I'm not sure I have the authority to do that but I'll try.

 

3. @Toast @aksuko @drewowo are all coming up to the VHL from the VHLM. Any words of advice or encouragement?

When things seem bleak and dark, when you're player is not living up to your expectations... remember it could always be worse. You could be the Rock Johnson. 

 

4. Who do you think goes first overall in the upcoming VHL Entry Draft? Why? HERE!

@OrbitingDeath  Green goes first because Green is legend. Green means go!

 

5. Who do you think goes 2nd overall? Why?

@rjfrymangoes second because who doesn't want a centre and the dude responsible for the draft rankings system muhahaha!

 

6. Who do you think goes 3rd overall?

@Mr_Hatter goes third overall because he is a solid member with his consistency now rooted in the league. I tip my hat to him, the good sir!

1. What are your thoughts on the Chicago Phoenix winning the Continental Cup? 

We gave them a pretty tough fight, but it just goes to show how good they really were. Congrats to the Phoenix.

 

2. Thoughts on Mexico City Kings winning the Founders cup?

I played for the Kings in my only season in the M. Happy they got it this season.

 

6. Who wins the slobo award? Here! 

Tough to say. I'm gonna go with Su though.

 

7. Toast, aks and Drew are all coming up to the VHL from the VHLM. Any words of advice or encouragement?

I obviously don't have control over what they choose to do, but the Bears of late have been great when everybody buys in. Do what you can for the betterment of the team and you will find both individual and team success.

 

8. Who do you think goes first overall in the upcoming VHL Entry Draft? Why? HERE!

I'm thinking it'll be Atreides. He's the best center on the board at the moment, and that one guy Lahtinen was just traded so they'll need to find a replacement at center.

 

9. Who do you think goes 2nd overall? Why?

I wouldn't be surprised if it's any of the other forwards on the board, but Davos could use some extra defensive depth at this moment. So I think they'll take Reylynn Reinhart.

1. What are your thoughts on the Chicago Phoenix winning the Continental Cup?
Cool team that stole their name from my player and definitely not the other way around.

 

2. Thoughts on Mexico City Kings winning the Founders cup?
It should have been Miami. Finals was an exciting series going all the way to 7 though.
 

3. Thoughts on Beaviss stepping down? What did you get him as a "thank you" gift?

The league is supposed to be fun for all. High responsibility positions add a ton of stress so I understand if that was the case. I got him a Seattle team picture to show we care.
 

4. Which VHL GM will be the next to step down?
Ricer has had a long run and I wouldn't be surprised to see Calgary looking for a new GM.
 

5. Which VHLM GM will be the next to step down?
IR has had a storied career as a GM and may move on to other opportunities.
 

6. Who wins the slobo award? Here
I'm very late to this and can't see the poll anymore. Sounds like someone from Moscow?
