RandomHero 55 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 (edited) With the Minot Gladiators being knocked off in four games in the North American Conference finals this season, it marked another disappointing end to Jakob Linholms VHLM season and VHLM career. Being apart of the Bern Royals last year his season ended in the European Conference finals last year and then his season came to an end at the same point. While he spent two seasons in the VHLM, Linholm never got a chance to play for the title and that has left him feeling really disappointed about his time in the VHLM. "Well I do feel like I never got around to accomplishing anything during my time here. I did get a chance to play with some great guys and I managed to gain a lot of experience and being here has really helped polish my game. I am looking forward to using what I learned here in the VHL. I would've liked too win a title while I was here though. I got into this game to try and help teams win championships. Individual accomplishments are nice and all, but the ultimate goal is to win championships." This marked the end of Linholms second year in the VHLM and he will be making the jump to the VHL and is expected to join the New York Americans next season. The Americans finished just outside the playoffs this past season and will be hoping that Jakob Linholm will be the key to helping get them into the playoffs and competing for a championship. "I'm really looking forward to getting to New York and playing with guys like Connor Low and Odin Tordahl. You watch them play through-out the year and they are really exciting and skilled players to watch. Hopefully I can help them and the team get into the playoffs and maybe go on a run. I'm hoping that with the talent that we have within the Americans squad that I can maybe win my first major championship with the team. I am going to be working hard this off-season to help polish my skills and that I am not seen as a liability on the ice. While I didn't get a chance to compete for a title in the VHLM, I am very excited for what the future has in store for the Americans and we are going to be looking to make an impact in the VHL next season and for many more seasons to come." The future does indeed seem bright for the young Americans squad. With VHL superstars Low and Tordahl leading the way, the team will be looking at their young prospects to help ensure that they remain competitive in the league. While no one can predict the future the Americans are a young and competitive team who have championship dreams and the addition of Linholm is sure to help move the Americans one step forward to making that dream a reality.

Smarch 3,153 Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I see you didn't mention Slaughter, most likely cause you already know he's a bum. You'll win something next year as in ROTY.

Guest Svoboda_3 Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Content: 3/3 489 words. I, too feel as if I didn't accomplish much in the VHLM this season. If I had my way, I would play another season to try and finish the job with Turku. You had good quotes here and despite the articles shortcomings, it was well-written with good direction.Grammar: 2/2 Some small things to watch out for in the future. Linholms = Linholm's (x2) last year his season = last year, his season too win = to win Connor = Conner through-out = throughout the future the = the future, theAppearance: 1/1 You had color and pictures.Overall: 6/6 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/7563-claimedanother-disappointing-season/#findComment-68813 Share on other sites More sharing options...
