2. What skills did you work on in the Offseason?

 

3. What do you love about living in Yukon?

 

4. Does pineapple belong on pizza?

 

5. Which addition are you most excited to join the team?

 

6. What was the most crazy trade that's happened so far?

1. Lots of training, hanging out with friends and family, you know

 

2. Passing a lot

 

3. It's beautiful, the air is so clean, and it's really quiet

 

4. No. Never. 

 

5. I'm excited to join this promising young team, and hopefully lead the way in terms of scoring

 

6. Haven't been paying much attention to trades, although the Patrik Tallinder blockbuster was insane

[GreenGato 101]

1. I had a ball in the Victory ProAm.

2. There was a lot of work done to prepare for the drafts. Defense and puck handling are the most improved.

3. The summers are lovely in Yukon.

4. I don't order pineapple on pizza but I will eat it if it's around. I won't say it belongs, but it doesn't not belong. Does that make sense?!

5. @fromtheinside is my favorite addition to the team. We have a very solid management team and I believe they will put us in great positions to win it all.

6. All of the trades San Diego made on draft day after the craziest. They had a rough year last year and are immediately in contention after those draft day moves.

Shoes off, feet up, watching highlights of the Rush to see what I'm about to be apart of.

You gotta go fast, definitely if you're apart of the Rush, so skating is my go to for training.

Burnt Toast Cafe on the 2nd Av makes some delicious breakfast, so that's my go to.

Sure, if you're a heathen.

I'm brand new, so I don't know any of my teammates yet. Is it cheating to say everyone?

Haha yeah, when that really good guy got traded for that other really good guy that was crazy...yeah I have no idea about any trades yet.

Week 2 Press Conference

 

Answer 6 for 2 TPE; 3 for 1 TPE

 

1) The Rush have come out the gate strong with a 5-2-3 record in the first week of the VHLM. What do you think of the good start for the team and where do you think we will finish in the standings at the end of the season?

 

2) The Philadelphia Reapers have dominated the M so far going 9-1-1 to start the season. Do you think their success will carry over into the playoffs or are looking looking at the next Halifax 21st (swept in the first round by the 8 seed last season)?

 

3) Our team has had really balanced scoring throughout the first week with many players contributing. Who would you vote as the team's Player of the Week for week 1?

 

4) What stat (or stats) are you focused most on improving this season for your player? Additionally, if you had to target a TPE to hit for the end of the season what number are you trying to hit?

 

5) (For Rookies) Where do you think you will go in the VHL Draft and the VHLM Drafts? What teams would you like to goto? (For VHL Drafted Players) Do you feel ready to make the jump to the pros in S76? If so what VHL teammate do you most want to play with?

 

6) With the Christmas holidays about a month away, what plans do you usually have for the holidays? Do you have any Christmas traditions that you do every year?

1) The Rush have come out the gate strong with a 5-2-3 record in the first week of the VHLM. What do you think of the good start for the team and where do you think we will finish in the standings at the end of the season?

I think we should be aiming to get to the semi-finals this season!

2) The Philadelphia Reapers have dominated the M so far going 9-1-1 to start the season. Do you think their success will carry over into the playoffs or are looking looking at the next Halifax 21st (swept in the first round by the 8 seed last season)?

I think they can do well, I sure hope we can beat them though!

3) Our team has had really balanced scoring throughout the first week with many players contributing. Who would you vote as the team's Player of the Week for week 1?

I don't really know like you said it was really balanced and I'd say we were all great in this first week!

4) What stat (or stats) are you focused most on improving this season for your player? Additionally, if you had to target a TPE to hit for the end of the season what number are you trying to hit?

I'm not really working on anything at the moment as I'm maxed but I'd say a goal for this season would be 300 TPE!

5) (For Rookies) Where do you think you will go in the VHL Draft and the VHLM Drafts? What teams would you like to goto? (For VHL Drafted Players) Do you feel ready to make the jump to the pros in S76? If so what VHL teammate do you most want to play with?

I think I'm ready to go to the pros and I'm looking forward to playing with Darius!

6) With the Christmas holidays about a month away, what plans do you usually have for the holidays? Do you have any Christmas traditions that you do every year? I don't normally do much for the holidays, normally just a dinner with family but this year we aren't sure if it will happen due to covid.

1) The Rush have come out the gate strong with a 5-2-3 record in the first week of the VHLM. What do you think of the good start for the team and where do you think we will finish in the standings at the end of the season?

I think that this start is good for the players and coaches, and is motivating the players to play even better, I also think this can lead to a championship in first place at the end of the season.

6) With the Christmas holidays about a month away, what plans do you usually have for the holidays? Do you have any Christmas traditions that you do every year? 

Well, If there was no Covid I would go to Hilton Head or Mexico, but because of Covid I might just stay home and do whatever I feel like.

1) The Rush have come out the gate strong with a 5-2-3 record in the first week of the VHLM. What do you think of the good start for the team and where do you think we will finish in the standings at the end of the season?

• I think that we had a really good start considering our special teams have not been good. I am really happy to see our high shot totals and we are generally beating the other team in that category. Ideally, once we bring it all together, I think we can finish top 2 in the conference.

2) The Philadelphia Reapers have dominated the M so far going 9-1-1 to start the season. Do you think their success will carry over into the playoffs or are looking looking at the next Halifax 21st (swept in the first round by the 8 seed last season)?

• Philly is on fire and they have 3 max players so it is not a mystery that they are on the top of the standings. They should have at least 7 max players going into the playoffs which should equate to a 1st place regular season finish. Once the playoffs start, I think they will face some tough competition but they will go further than the 21st.

3) Our team has had really balanced scoring throughout the first week with many players contributing. Who would you vote as the team's Player of the Week for week 1?

• Michael Schmitdt had a great week with some odd minutes and kept us in it. He is my vote for PoW.

4) What stat (or stats) are you focused most on improving this season for your player? Additionally, if you had to target a TPE to hit for the end of the season what number are you trying to hit?

• Strength should have the biggest improvement between now and when Vick maxes out. Ideally, I want to 300 TPE by the end of season.

5) (For Rookies) Where do you think you will go in the VHL Draft and the VHLM Drafts? What teams would you like to goto? (For VHL Drafted Players) Do you feel ready to make the jump to the pros in S76? If so what VHL teammate do you most want to play with?

• I think I will ready to make the jump in S76 and join PatrikLaine on the Titans.

6) With the Christmas holidays about a month away, what plans do you usually have for the holidays? Do you have any Christmas traditions that you do every year? 

• I usually have dinner with my girlfriend's family during Christmas but given the situation in the states, I hope we can at least do something to celebrate the season.

Answer 6 for 2 TPE; 3 for 1 TPE

 

1) The Rush have come out the gate strong with a 5-2-3 record in the first week of the VHLM. What do you think of the good start for the team and where do you think we will finish in the standings at the end of the season?

 

• I feel like with the core we have, we will pick up where we left off last season near the top of the standing (top 5). I don't want to jinx the playoffs though

 

2) The Philadelphia Reapers have dominated the M so far going 9-1-1 to start the season. Do you think their success will carry over into the playoffs or are looking looking at the next Halifax 21st (swept in the first round by the 8 seed last season)?

 

• You can never tell with the playoffs, as some teams have the mentality for the regular season, some for the playoffs, but only some have both. If they finish with 55+ wins, then I'd say we're looking at a spooky contender.

 

3) Our team has had really balanced scoring throughout the first week with many players contributing. Who would you vote as the team's Player of the Week for week 1?

 

• I'd have to go with Knoxified, with our evening scoring it's hard to really pick out who's doing better than who, but we wouldn't get anywhere without solid goaltending by Knox.

 

4) What stat (or stats) are you focused most on improving this season for your player? Additionally, if you had to target a TPE to hit for the end of the season what number are you trying to hit?

 

• If we're talking stat as in personal stats, I'm aiming for 70 speed and 70 passing minimum or I'd say it'd be a disappointment personally. If we're talking stat as in statistics, I'd saying 25 assists is my goal. TPE at the end of the season I'd say is 150, I'm unsure on how fast we'll get to the end of the season, but I'm doing my best to min. max. my TPE gains as much as I can, so 150 minimum is my goal.

 

5) (For Rookies) Where do you think you will go in the VHL Draft and the VHLM Drafts? What teams would you like to goto? (For VHL Drafted Players) Do you feel ready to make the jump to the pros in S76? If so what VHL teammate do you most want to play with?

 

• For me, it doesn't matter where I go as long as the team that gets me really wants me. I'd hope for top 10, but I know that isn't feasible right now with the guys ahead of me, so top 20 would be great. I'd love to come back to the Rush though

6) With the Christmas holidays about a month away, what plans do you usually have for the holidays? Do you have any Christmas traditions that you do every year? 

 

• No plans, Budapest seems to be pointing to a full lockdown still so it's probably just at home with the girlfriend and doggo. But for traditions we always have in my family to gift eachother pajamas, so I'll carry that on as per usual.

6) With the Christmas holidays about a month away, what plans do you usually have for the holidays? Do you have any Christmas traditions that you do every year? 

1. I like that we started off strong and I hope we will finish the season strong. I am predicting we will end up in top 3 this season.

2. Good for them for a great start but the season is still young. I think anything can happen. You can have an underdog come out of nowhere and win the season.

3. As a goalie, I like to give shout outs to other goalies or the defensemen. But I think Tee Pee E II has contributed big with both goal scoring and shot blocks

 

4. Honestly, as a goalie I have been mostly focusing on Rebound Controls, Agility, and Hand Speed. I'll be focusing in those 3 and Style Control for a while. Ideally, I would love to be somewhere in the 200 TPE range, but more realistically I think I might be somewhere between 150-175 range

 

5. As a goalie I think I might go maybe in round 3 or 4, 2 at best. I would like to continue to play for Yukon Rush next season and maybe bump up to starter. That is if they will have me again.

 

6. Usually, I play hockey with friends and drink beer at the same time. However, the rinks are closed so, I probably be doing nothing except for working

1.) We got off on the right foot this season. This is great for the team, and if we keep grinding, I feel like we can be a strong playoff contender.

 

2.) I think it is still too early to tell, but hey, anything can happen.

 

3.) I'd say either Daddy Derek or Vick Fairchild.

 

4.) I am looking to improve my skating, puck handling, and passing. I want to get my tpe to atleast 180 by the end of the season.

 

5.) I dont feel that I am ready to make the jump quite yet, I still have a few seasons of growing to do.

 

6.) I usually go over my families house but due to the pandemic, I don't think I am this year which sucks.

2. No, I think Simon doesn't like crazy insane stacked teams, so I think a scrappy team like us has a serious shot

3. Fairchild has been crushing it recently

 

4. 90 for scoring. It'll take a lot of work, but that's work I'm willing to do

 

5. Yeah, I'd say I'm ready. For the Wolves, Gregg Stallion seems like a funny guy

 

6. Getting back to Toronto to be with the family, and have a nice dinner together.

6) With the Christmas holidays about a month away, what plans do you usually have for the holidays? Do you have any Christmas traditions that you do every year? 

1) Its always nice to be on a strong and successful team. I think its a great situation as a rookie to come in and just learn from this talented group. Not crazy to think we can't finish as one of the top teams, if anything.. I'm counting on it.

2) Though I'm still learning about the league, the Reapers sound like a real dominate team. Big upsets like that aren't huge but anything can happen in the world of hockey!

3) Back end is always very important, so its incredibly hard to choose just one, but I'll go with Tee Pee ll. Hes in a spot, I hope to be in myself one day.

4) Definitely think I can improve my skating and hockey senses. More work in the gym and studying top players is on my schedule and I hope to improve quick.

5) Anywhere. Its not about where you get drafted really, its what you do with those opportunities. With that being said, I don't have a preference for whenever that day comes, I'll just make an impact no matter what.

6) The last few years I usually spend the holidays with family and run a bit of a charity drive as well. With Covid this year it looks like Christmas with the entire family is out of the question so I'll just be raising money and donating toys + dinners to families in need.

1)  Over the course of the last week Yukon has encountered some struggles. This time last week we were 5-2-3 and now we've fallen to 11-12-4. What would you say is the biggest factor in our recent slump and what do we need to do to turn things around?

 

2) If you could only choose one accolade, would you rather win the scoring title or win a Founder's Cup while only having moderate personal success?

 

3) Philly has pretty much been established as the league's top threat since the onset of the season, however after Sunday's sims the Mexico City Kings actually have passed the Reapers in the overall standings. Which team do you consider to be more lethal and who would you LEAST want to play come playoff time?

 

4) We've had a decent amount of new recruits join our team over the past couple weeks. How did you discover the VHL in the first place and what about it appeals to you most?

 

5) What other video games (if any) do you like to play in your free time when you aren't max capping your VHL player every week :D?

 

6) In three sentances or less, please explain why Cow is a degenerate for even implying pineapple should on a pizza. For the pineapple lovers out there, why do you choose such a poor lifestyle and what are you going to do in the future to better yourself?

1. think we had some trouble finding the right lines, but I have every confidence in our team that we will straighten this out.

2. Definitely a Founder's Cup, we do this together as a team. I think that a team result is more important than personal results.

3. None of that matters to me. I believe in our team that we can take points against anyone.

4. Yes, I also only just joined this team so everything in this team is still fairly new to me, but it's just nice to see that new people have joined. I discovered VHL myself through YouTube.

5. Nice question, I spend quite a bit of time in CSGO and every now and then I play NHL career mode.

6. *laughs* I'm not going to answer this. Good to talk to you and see you at the next press conference.

Week 3 Press Conference

 

Answer All 6 for 2 TPE; 3 for 1 TPE

I think the biggest factor in our recent slump is that we've encountered both tough opponents as well as still trying to find the perfect line combinations. When we were 5-2-3, we were scoring tons, but lacking defensively, and now it seems to have flip-flopped. I trust our management staff to work around with the lines to where even we win against the tougher teams.

 

2) If you could only choose one accolade, would you rather win the scoring title or win a Founder's Cup while only having moderate personal success?

 

Without a doubt the cup, personal success is just a cherry on top for me where team play is my bread and butter. I want the team to succeed and if I can either be the driver or just a support, I'd be happy as long as reach the end goal of the championship.

 

3) Philly has pretty much been established as the league's top threat since the onset of the season, however after Sunday's sims the Mexico City Kings actually have passed the Reapers in the overall standings. Which team do you consider to be more lethal and who would you LEAST want to play come playoff time?

 

I would still put money on Philly being the toughest of the two. Although Philly went on the streak at first and seems to have cooled off a bit, they are still a force to reckon with. And looking at Mexico's recent games they haven't really gone up against the tippy top teams in the last 10 games, so I would be guessing that's why they've had such a recent success.

 

4) We've had a decent amount of new recruits join our team over the past couple weeks. How did you discover the VHL in the first place and what about it appeals to you most?

 

I discovered it as a friend in a EHM community kept telling me to join, and I've been in a simulation league a long time ago and I figured I'd give it a shot. To see that my home town has a VHLM team was the cherry on top

 

5) What other video games (if any) do you like to play in your free time when you aren't max capping your VHL player every week :D?

 

I'm a big FPS guy, so competitive shooters are my go-to. However I don't have a good PC right now so most of my time is spent playing EHM, max capping on VHL, APEX legends on the PS4 (even though I can't stand the controller), and a variety of other games on PS4 or Nintendo Switch.

 

6) In three sentances or less, please explain why Cow is a degenerate for even implying pineapple should on a pizza. For the pineapple lovers out there, why do you choose such a poor lifestyle and what are you going to do in the future to better yourself?

 

Cow is quite young, so he isn't experienced enough yet to really be able to give thoughtful input on what a good flavour of pizza is. I don't fault him for it, but I would be guessing that once he hits 18 he will realize the errors of his ways and switch to a more mature type pizza, for example like corn on pizza

A big factor in our slump is that our lines are not matching right, and we might need to test old lines, or the lines from the first 3 or 5 games. 

 

2) If you could only choose one accolade, would you rather win the scoring title or win a Founder's Cup while only having moderate personal success?
I would rather win the founders cup because, that gives my entire team something to celebrate, and not just me something to celebrate!

 

3) Philly has pretty much been established as the league's top threat since the onset of the season, however after Sunday's sims the Mexico City Kings actually have passed the Reapers in the overall standings. Which team do you consider to be more lethal and who would you LEAST want to play come playoff time?
I would consider the Reapers the most lethal, because even though the kings too their first spot, they are still better than them, and the kings just got lucky against the bad teams that fed them wins. I would least want to play the Reapers.

 

4) We've had a decent amount of new recruits join our team over the past couple weeks. How did you discover the VHL in the first place and what about it appeals to you most?
I discovered the VHL through google searches, because I searched for simulation hockey leagues, and the VHL came up. What appeals to me the most is that the tasks are tracked automatically, and you do not need to make an update thread, which makes it easier for the players, and the league staff!

 

5) What other video games (if any) do you like to play in your free time when you aren't max capping your VHL player every week :D?
Well usually the first thing I do is get all my tasks done, or maybe get my 6 TPE from 3 2 TPE Tasks, and then take a break, maybe do school, and then Play some video games and do the one last task the next day, or the same day.

 

6) In three sentances or less, please explain why Cow is a degenerate for even implying pineapple should on a pizza. For the pineapple lovers out there, why do you choose such a poor lifestyle and what are you going to do in the future to better yourself?
What do you mean poor lifestyle?? Pineapple is actually the best, go get checked out at the doctor man, I always thought you had some problems with your food reviewing.... Cow has rights to eat pineapples, and you dont have rights not to..

I'd say that my GAA has gone up and that could be a part of the reason because if i'm letting in more goals it's harder to win

2) If you could only choose one accolade, would you rather win the scoring title or win a Founder's Cup while only having moderate personal success?

Founder's Cup because I'm a goalie XD

3) Philly has pretty much been established as the league's top threat since the onset of the season, however after Sunday's sims the Mexico City Kings actually have passed the Reapers in the overall standings. Which team do you consider to be more lethal and who would you LEAST want to play come playoff time?

I'd say philly is more lethal and i'd prefer not to face them

4) We've had a decent amount of new recruits join our team over the past couple weeks. How did you discover the VHL in the first place and what about it appeals to you most?

I discovered VHL from just browsing the google play store actually which is crazy cause it has so little downloads there

5) What other video games (if any) do you like to play in your free time when you aren't max capping your VHL player every week :D?

Not much really

6) In three sentances or less, please explain why Cow is a degenerate for even implying pineapple should on a pizza. For the pineapple lovers out there, why do you choose such a poor lifestyle and what are you going to do in the future to better yourself?

I think that cow is in the right here pineapple 100% belongs on pizza and anyone that says otherwise should be exiled

1. My bust of a player Juniper is. He's supposed to be a scorer, and he's nine points under a point per game. I think if he rekindles the fire, it will help a lot

 

2. Do I have a choice right now? Either way, Founder's Cup all the way

 

3. I think the Reapers are slightly better, but I would prefer not to play Mexico and risk a confrontation with their drugs

 

4. A friend told me about it, and I think just going through the career process is pretty damn cool

 

5. Among us for sure.

 

6. Three sentences or less? God damnit man. 

Let's start here. Why would you even want a good tasting fruit on your pizza? Pizza is supposed to taste cheesy and bready(?), not juicy and sweet. Let alone a freeze dried hunk of pineapple. Pizza doesn't deserve to be ruined by the demonized devil trend that is pineapple.

• I think the biggest factor in our slump is trying to mesh different playing styles and player utilization. Our management team is playing around with the lines and sooner or later, they will find the perfect combinations to take us to the top of the conference.

2) If you could only choose one accolade, would you rather win the scoring title or win a Founder's Cup while only having moderate personal success?

• Championship parades are more fun than scoring title parades so it's Founder's Cup all the way.

3) Philly has pretty much been established as the league's top threat since the onset of the season, however after Sunday's sims the Mexico City Kings actually have passed the Reapers in the overall standings. Which team do you consider to be more lethal and who would you LEAST want to play come playoff time?

• Philly is more lethal and scary because of their depth. 

4) We've had a decent amount of new recruits join our team over the past couple weeks. How did you discover the VHL in the first place and what about it appeals to you most?

• I found out about the VHL from a Youtube video and it is one of the best things I have done this year. The community is by far the best part of the VHL.

5) What other video games (if any) do you like to play in your free time when you aren't max capping your VHL player every week :D?

• I have been playing some NHL 08 on a PS2 emulator when I am taking a break from TPE earning.

6) In three sentances or less, please explain why Cow is a degenerate for even implying pineapple should on a pizza. For the pineapple lovers out there, why do you choose such a poor lifestyle and what are you going to do in the future to better yourself?

• I may be odd but I don't find pineapple on pizza to be a divisive subject. I would never order it but if someone else ordered a pizza with pineapple on it, I would have a few slices. Cow is a degenerate for sure regardless of his pizza preferences.
