[okifenoki 172]

With some recent success centering the 2nd Line of the Mississauga Hounds of the VHLM, Pietro Angellini has started to draw some attention from the Big League scouts. Drafted 47th Overall (S72) by the Moscow Menace, Angellini is looking to make his name known in the Minors and become a bullet point on all the VHL Scout's watchlists. Recently, in an article penned by VSN Journalist @Patrik Tallinder regarding the VHL Future Watch, Angellini was mentioned as a possible breakout candidate:

 

Reporter: "Pietro, word around the league is that you're getting some looks from other Squads, VHL and VHLM alike. How does that make you feel?"

 

PA: "Well it feels good, obviously. The hard work at practice with the Hounds seems to be paying off. It is nice to hear my name around but, I'll be honest, we're in a playoff race here and that is my main focus."

 

Reporter: "The VHLM is a tight race this year, especially in the Eastern Conference. Minnesota already locked in a spot for the playoffs but the race is on between Philly and the Hounds. You guys dropped some tough games against Philly recently. How do you expect to bounce back?"

 

PA: "Man, Philly is a tight squad. Going up against Bud Knight @Dilly Dilly and Jer Lefebvre @Jer_Lefebvre was a tough task. Those guys are putting up heavy numbers this season. But I think we can right the ship and make the playoffs. Hopefully we will face off against Philly and show them and the fans what we can do"

 

Reporter: "You sound like you want another shot at them."

 

PA: "Damn right I do. I respect those guys but dropping 4 close gamest to them, while we're jocking for points in the standings, left a bad taste in our mouths."

 

Reporter: "How do you think the Hounds will stack up with Philly next time around?"

 

PA: "We have to focus on Defense. Let up less chances and let Tonner @MexicanCow123 do his work in net. The more support we give him the better chance we have."

 

Reporter: "It sounds like you're determined to make a name for yourself in the League. What are your plans to make that happen?"

 

PA: "Like I said before, we're in a playoff race here and that is my main focus. The better I can support my teammates and help us win games the better off we will all be. I want all our names to be on everyone's mind, not just me."

 

Reporter: "There you have it, fans. Angellini and the Hounds look to push for the playoffs and won't quit. We will see if they can make it to the dance and whether or not they can stay in the mix. Until next time, VHL fans."
