Random VHL Thoughts - Copying Flyersfan

1) Why does no one ask me press conference questions anymore? I had a long run where lots of kind gentlemen asked me questions. It is way more fun to answer those than the boring generic ones in the team press conference thread

 

2) I am 100% anti checking - Checking causes penalties, and one of these days I'm going to do a study on how so not worth it checking it. A big reason Moscow has been struggling lately is the whole team has turned into goons, and having 8 penalty kills to only 4 power plays will often lead to your team losing. Especially when your team's best defensemen is in the box on the penalties it makes them ever harder to kill

 

3) I feel bad for Bernard in Moscow. As a teammate, he is awesome, but he goes from being a starter to a backup on a top cup contending team. This is likely only for one season though, and starting next season on he should have enough tpe to be a franchise goaltender. This similar situation happened in Vancouver before too with some Greg guy I believe, and he is maybe doing well if Beaviss is starting his backup the right amount of games
