Velevra 312 Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 1: How'd you discover the VHL? I believe I discovered it through the SHL actually when I was a member there. 2: Which VHL team has surprised you this season? I think Seattle has done a great job this season and are within striking distance of 1st in NA. 3: Who should be the next captain of your favorite NHL team? If Quinn Hughes left for some reason I would probably say Elias Pettersson would probably be next 4: Connor McDavid has 100 assists this season! Do you believe he's the best playmaker in the league? I personally think so, it's always a treat to watch him play and set up plays. 5: What do you think the Utah/Salt Lake City team name should be? The team should be called the Utah Salty Lakes to get the best of both worlds! 6: What is a type of food you'd like to try, but haven't had the opportunity? Would love to travel to Japan some day and try some sushi and other food there Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/87352-chicago-phoenix-press-conference/page/18/#findComment-1023378 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I didn't fall off at the end of the season though. 3. I think the biggest threat will be their goalie, WWWWWW. 4. I'm going to say Trunov. He's been our #1 guy and hoping he can continue to do so. 5. Meh, I don't think they are cheating, just bending the rules. 6. I can't wait to see how Marvin Harrison Jr does in the NFL (believe that's how you spell his name). He's a beast WR. 7. I did watch the draft. As a Bears fan, I have to say Caleb Williams.

Velevra 312 Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 1: The Phoenix have secured a playoff spot. Do you think we have what it takes to upset New York? Hindsight now but I think we all knew it would be an uphill battle. Glad we had some close games. 2: Are you happy with your players preformance this season? Decently happy, was aiming for a point per game and I think I ended up just being a little below that while playing on the second line/PP. So not too shabby 3: Which New York American player do you think will be the biggest threat for us? Heading into the playoffs Jasper Davis was on a tear, we shut him down a fair amount but the team has a lot of threats that stepped up. 4: Which Phoenix player will be our playoff MVP? The great Reinhard von Kongming, always a clutch playoff performer. 5: Are the Vegas Golden Knights "cheating"? According to the rule book no, that being said I think the rules should be looked at going forward. 6: Have you been paying attention to NHL draft prospects this season? If so, which one(s) impress you? Not a ton though I know a couple of names like Celebrini and Iginila who are expected to go in the 1st round.

Well it already happened so unfortunately we couldn’t get a W but hopefully we can build from this and get better next season 2. Given this was my rookie season it was okay I suppose. Just need to grow some more 5. Somewhat yes. Their roster is about 4.5 million over the cap but it’s allowed with the current cba. I do hope they change the rules to make the salary cap apply in the playoffs in the future though 6. Not a whole lot no. I’ve only heard of Celebrini and he’s supposed to be pretty good. He looked decent in the world juniors 7. I did not but hopefully the patriots have found their new QB. With a top 3 pick in the draft you would hope they become a solid player 8. Groundhogs day with Bill Murray was a pretty good movie Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/87352-chicago-phoenix-press-conference/page/18/#findComment-1024300 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to be able to be more of a factor on the playoffs and support our great players. 2: I believe London will win. It's a pretty difficult bet but I think Triller will make some massive plays, not to mention London's goaltending is slightly better. 3: We got a good group, we just gotta focus on improving each week and maybe get a few free agents that give us a few more weapons to work with. 5: As a Leaf fan, I believe the fanbase is way too upset about this loss. Boston was the best team last year and had an amazing start this year. Sure they aren't the best team in the league anymore but they are dangerous and we brought them all the way to game 7. WINNIPEG AND WASHINGTON looked awful, those fan bases should be much more concerned. Also...Fire Keefe. 7: I probably would've said Marner because of his energy...But I'm a bit sour on him at the moment. Let's go with Nico Hischier. He's a great player and one of the best younger leaders in the league. Once New Jersey returns to the playoffs I believe he'll have a better chance to show those traits. 8: I have a few online friends in Texas. We've been friends for 12 or 13 years now, so I've always wanted to visit them one day.

Velevra 312 Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 1: What is one area of your player's game you will be focusing on this off-season and why? Probably working to up my defence and then scoring a little bit so I can be better on both ends. 2: Who do you think is going to win the championship for the VHL, the Seattle Bears or the London United and why? I will go with London since I think they had a bit of harder road going through Europe but should be a close series! 3: This off-season, what do you think the team needs to do to be better in the upcoming season? Probably figure out as a collective how we can score more goals while giving up less opportunities in the defensive end 4: What VHL team this season (besides Chicago) has been the biggest surprise to you and why? I think Seattle did a great job improving their lineup throughout the season and are close to winning a cup because of it! 5: What do you think of the first round of the playoffs in the NHL? Did you favorite to win make it through, or have you chosen a new team? Was alright from what I managed to catch. I think most of the favourites won in the first round so will be interesting to see what shakes up in the second. 6: Do you currently play any sports in real life? If so, what sports do you play? If not, what is one sport you would like to get into? Nothing structured at the moment but do some pick up games for different things occasionally. Would maybe be cool to play some more basketball Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/87352-chicago-phoenix-press-conference/page/18/#findComment-1024548 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want all of my teammates to know how pumped I am to join them here in Chicago, and that things are going to totally rule from now on. 2. I think we should be able to place within the top three seeds of the NA, but the seed you earn in the regular season doesn't mean much in the playoffs. All that matters is that we make it. 3. I wasn't expecting Moscow to end up with the top two picks in the draft. Hell, I don't think Spartan was either. Absolutely wild. 4. In terms of moves, acquiring me, but re-signing Spanish Moon Moth can't be understated. That was a very important transaction. 5. Vacation? I might get some weekends here and there in the past, but no real vacations probably. 6. With Moscow picking first now, it's gotta be Maverick Goncalves. I mean, they also get Jillian Woods out of it too, so win-win. 7. Buffalo wings are my absolute favorite, just love the different flavors you can do with it. 8. The odds are stacked against them, but I watched my Flyers do it back in 2009/10, so it's absolutely possible. I'd love to see it, personally. badcolethetitan 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/87352-chicago-phoenix-press-conference/page/18/#findComment-1025699 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad to be here, really excited about the season. About time Chicago got their own godfather, I think. 2. Hard to say exactly, but I got a good feeling about a top three finish in the conference. 3. New York. I'd be lying if I said I was expecting a trade, they've made some pretty decent moves too. 5. Going on a cruise to Europe, stopping in Norway, Sweden, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, France, and the UK for about 2.5 weeks. 7. Auntie Anne's or Wetzels Pretzels. I will always get them if I get the chance. Nothing better in my opinion. 8. If they win game six, I'm convinced they will. They've outplayed the Rags in every game, Igor has stolen three, but I don't think he's gonna be able to steal the series. badcolethetitan 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/87352-chicago-phoenix-press-conference/page/18/#findComment-1025703 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's nice to have some new faces around the locker room and I believe with your talent we'll be able to take a big step forward! 2: I think we'll surprise the league and finish as a top 5 team. We have great talent and a good defensive core that can support our star goaltender. It's a recipe for success in my books. 4: It was clutch that the Spanish Moon Moth signed with us. They could've tested free agency and gone to any team but they decided to give us a chance A first-line Center is something we've needed for a while. 6: I don't know why but I'm feeling Jillian Woods will be picked 1st overall. Every struggling team needs a future first-pair defender and I think Jillian will be that. 7: There are so many great options, lately I've been craving burritos but #1 of all time would be Burgers. I don't have much of a reason but I do have some good memories at family gatherings where we'd just get the barbeque and grill up burgers while sitting around chatting and stuff. 8: Well...I got to this presser late, the Rangers have already won. I would've said no though, I think the Rangers are a powerhouse that just didn't try for two games.

I think we'll finish top 2-3 in our conference for sure, and make a deeper run than expected - I'd be very pleased with the finals this season and suspect we have the talent and management to do it. 3. I've gotta agree - the Americans have definitely surprised me the most. 5. I just got back from vacation over to the beach! I went with my residency crew, which is about to split across the nation. 7.

So excited to have you all on board and looking forward to a great season ahead! 2: Where do you think the Chicago Phoenix will finish in the standings and why? I think we should safely be a playoff time. Chemistry will ultimately determine how we compete with the other top teams in the conference. 3: What is one team this off-season (besides Chicago) that has surprised you the most? It looks like Vancouver has made some solid moves this off season. I expect them to also be a playoffs level team this season. 4: This has been a busy off-season for the Chicago Phoenix. What do you think our biggest move so far was? Hard to decide between bringing in Ya Boi Oven and Spanish Moon Moth. Getting a #1 dman and #1 center are equally important! 5: Are you going on vacation this summer? If so, where are you heading? If not, do you have anything fun planned during the summer? Headed to Vancouver next weekend, really looking forward to it! 7: Do you have a favorite food/dish? If so, what is it and why is it your favorite?

I think the Titans will be bottom of the league. They currently only have 2 defenders and I didn't see a forward over 700TPE. I think it's a safe pick. 2. Chicago is pretty well-rounded this season and we're only going to grow during the season. I'll say our defense needs to step up this season and if they do we should have no problem making the postseason again. 3. Lamb and I have been partners for both my seasons so far (I think) I imagine our players get along well! 5. NY Rangers just look so deadly whenever they play seriously. If they make it past Florida without too many injuries they should go all the way. 6. The Dustin Funk (Most Improved Player) Lionel has taken a good step forward last season but I believe this will be the season he'll prove himself. 8. It's been a pretty chill off-season. I've been slowly improving some of my attributes and I'm hoping that I'll be even better defensively. Our goaltender is one of the best in the league and If I can bail him out a few times we'll have a great season ahead of us! badcolethetitan 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/87352-chicago-phoenix-press-conference/page/18/#findComment-1027213 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renomitsu 934 Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 1: Who do you think is going to get the first overall pick in the VHL this season? (There's a few teams that will be at the bottom). I mean it would be pretty sad if the LA Stars didn't get the first overall pick given how miserably they did this season, but really their odds vs the field aren't that great in reality. 2: What is one area that the Chicago Phoenix are lacking in? Hm, not sure - we have a reasonably diverse and talented roster and are pretty close to the cap. Maybe a future center? I have no idea. 3: Who is your favorite teammate on the team so far and why? @Doomsday and I go way back. I'm pretty sure it's him. 4: What is the best gift you've ever received? Why was it the best? Honestly? A rice krispie cake in the shape of a kidney when I turned 30. I was on NICU and my wonderful intern made it for me. The thought and effort that went into it was incredible. 5: Who do you think is going to win the Stanley Cup out of the remaining teams and why? New York, I guess? I dunno. 6: If your player is going to win an award this season, what award do you think they'll win and why? Well, I had a shot at getting the MIP but didn't quite do it. That's okay though, we'll just try to win it all next season and that's consolation enough for me.

Ryan Artyomov has been good so far in his career, but this season will be the year that he becomes great. 2. The whole league needs to be on notice, because Chicago is coming for the Cup! 3. Joshua Schwarzer has all the tools to become a stud, and when it happens, I feel like the league outside of Chicago will be all like, "Where did this come from?" He's ready. 6. I haven't gotten to play on Davos again since my initial run with my first player, and it's somewhere I've always wanted to return. One day... but we have a job here to do in Chicago before I worry about that. 7. The Salt Lake Soakers, because come on, that name practically sells itself! 8. Classic Rock is my go-to. They just don't make music like that anymore and it's really sad. badcolethetitan 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/87352-chicago-phoenix-press-conference/page/18/#findComment-1027628 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velevra 312 Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 1: Who is one player on Chicago (besides your own) that you think is going to have a good season and why? I think Ya Boi Oven is going to have an amazing season. He is extremely strong defensively and has a great shot as well. 2: Is there any player you would like to call out before the season starts on another team? Start the trash talking! I think Eno Velvson is just okay. Sorry that's all I got. 3: Who is going to be the most underrated player on Chicago (besides your own) and why? I think Reinhard von Kongming has always been a solid defenceman that's underrated. 4: Who do you think is going to win playoff MVP in the NHL and why? If Edmonton makes it to the finals and wins I would say it has to be McDavid 5: How do you like to spend your free time? Hanging out with friends, watching shows, playing games. Typical things 6: What is one team in the VHL you're looking forward to playing and why? Looking forward to playing Vancouver think they are a strong upcoming team like us badcolethetitan 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/87352-chicago-phoenix-press-conference/page/18/#findComment-1027655 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new Utah team shall not exist and shall not be named because Arizona is where hockey should be not Utah with a population of like 3000. The NHL is stupid for allowing that. Anyways they should be named nothing. badcolethetitan 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/87352-chicago-phoenix-press-conference/page/18/#findComment-1027756 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doomsday guy ive seen him play and he is dropping a ton this season 2. Every single player that isn't on the Chicago Phoenix is not standing a chance against us especially Kenamatic that guy is cooked. 3. Lilpfighter is that guy may be a very bad player but sometimes he has his moments and I expect lots from him. 4. Leon Draisaitl if he gets past dallas probably I think he been popping off even tho i hate Edmonton 5. Eating and watching hockey usually 6. Toronto as I know a few of there guys and it will be a fire match 7. The Utah Outlaws goes very hard 8. Rap and rock the best badcolethetitan 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/87352-chicago-phoenix-press-conference/page/18/#findComment-1027824 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so call out but more with good luck, Jasper David, I've basically been his teammate my entire career. So, a little strange to not be now. 4. Depends who wins, Dallas otter or Robinson, Edmonton, McDavid, Florida, Bobrobsky or Tkatchuk, or New York, Shesterkin. 5. If not playing video games, I'm playing hockey. 6. New York. For obvious reasons. 7. Utah Swarm I think is the best choice. I mean imagine the Delta Center being nicknamed "The Hive", with the fans "joining the swarm." Really works well to me. 8. Imagine Dragons, I will die on their hill badcolethetitan 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/87352-chicago-phoenix-press-conference/page/18/#findComment-1027855 Share on other sites More sharing options...
