1. My favourite player is no doubt, Alexander Pepper. He's one of the best, if not the best, goalies out there!

 

2. Well, I'm not on a team yet but Halifax looks good. But regardless, I'd be fine for playing with any team!

 

3. I'm a pineapple off kind of guy. Sorry, not much of a pineapple type of guy.

[gorlab 4,321]

1. Ryuu Crimson had a very respectable career. Do you think he can sneak into the HoF?

 

2. Which VHLM GM had the best pitch for Lafontaine? (Assuming you aren't a GM yourself)

 

3. Have you seen any other goalie prospects lurking around S69-S70? Who do you consider your biggest draft class rival thus far?

 

4. What is your philosophy on the early stages of sim player building? Are you going to stack only a select few cats up to 80+ or more of an all-around slower build?

 

5. If you could choose one S69/S70 defenceman to play with in the VHLM next season, who would you pick?

 

6. Have you seen any good movies lately? Recommend me something pls.

I consider Isak Sjostrom my biggest rival. He is a really good goalie and has been impressive so far.

@SlapshotDragon

1. No. While he was good and solid, I feel like that honor would go to Palo, Davis, or Borwinn over him.

 

2. Well, none really had a pitch for me. Saskatoon hadn't even contacted me yet here I am. I am enjoying Saskatoon though, so I'm happy.

3. Aleksandr Aleksandrow. He is a pretty solid goalie. Though, I don't think that there are that much goalies in this draft class.

 

4. Get the big four to 70+ then get the secondary stats to 50+.

 

5. Edwin THE Encarnacion. Absolute monster. He's a really good player.

What are your thoughts on your season?

What are your thoughts on how your team is doing?

Who do you think wins MVP?

Who makes it to the finals out of North America?

Who makes it out for Europe?

If the VHLM were to move Mexico but keep logo/name, where would you rebrand em to?

What are your thoughts on 12 days of Christmas?

What are you doing this year for the holiday season?

I am very confident that Danny DeYeeto will take home the MVP in the VHLM because of his dominance in point scoring and goal scoring despite the fact he is a defenseman. He also plays well defensively and has been a big part of the Wild's dominance this season.

 

A fact about me as a member, eh? I personally didn't like working for VSN. It started off as a good and fun way to get TPE but then we had editors and it took forever for them to approve my media spots so it slowed down my TPE production.

 

The 12 days of Christmas is a good event and honestly I appreciate the holiday gifts.

For the holiday season, I'm mostly chilling with my family.

 

It has been a good season for us so far. I mean, we've done and accomplished so much. With the playoff coming up, I hope we can keep our momentum going forward.

 

I hope I can get something Flames related for a present this year.

Calgary is doing well. We've been playing well this season and I can't wait to see how far we go.

 

People would say Tyler Barabash Jr but I'd argue JB Rift. Rift has played well for us and is an amazing goaltender.

 

I'd rebrand them to Quebec City. They need a major hockey team.

2. My pet peeves are when people touch my gear and also when girls do TikTok dances. The songs can get really annoying.

4. Not looking forward to my finals.

7. Puto Kutsinta (Kuchinta) is frickin delicious and I love it.

1. Whats the biggest difference between the VHL and VHLM?

2. JB Rift is one of the greats in terms of goal tending. How is it playing backup to him and what have you learned?

3. How exicited are you to play in the VHL playoffs for the first time?

4. Who's your biggest inspiration in the league?

4. Who's your biggest inspiration in the league?

1. The biggest difference is that you are against a more variety of players. Unlike the VHLM, where you mostly play with people exactly your level, in the VHL, there is a way broader skill range and that takes some getting used to.

2. It's been great playing backup to him! I've learned a lot from him but one of the things he's helped me with is my mental game and calming me down.

4. Definitely Gunnar. Our captain is always cheering us on!
