Offensive Explosion Leads to Strong Start from Seattle

[diacope 2 764]

Just days into the regular season the Seattle Bears have proven what was speculated during the offseason; their offense is legit. The Bears currently have 53 goals for, and no other team in the VHL has hit the 40 mark yet.

 

The Bears make an impressive number of appearances in the league leaders for stats. 5 Bears players place in the top 10 for points, 4 in the top 10 in goals, and 2 in the top 10 in assists. Furthermore, Jim Bob is tied for first in assists, and Timothy Brown is tied for first in goals.

 

The Bears most impressive statline is a stat that many consider pretty useless, +/-. The impressive thing about this Bears team is that they have 10 main skaters, and the top 10 in +/- is completely filled with Seattle Bears players. It is truly a statement to how great they have been so far this season.

 

At the beginning of the season, many wondered if the offense would be good enough to carry the defense. However, they have been great in their own right. Odin Omdahl currently leads in shot blocks, Lucifer Olivier Leveque, the rookie defenseman, is currently 4th in rookie scoring, and Randy Marsh is currently 5th in assists and 3rd in points by defensemen. Han Jae Kuk has already exceeded his point totals from the previous season, and it has only been 11 games.

 

Jacob Tonn has also been lights out. Our of all the goalers to appear in 8 or more games this season, only Ajay Krishna has a higher save percentage than Tonn. He has a comfortable lead in wins as well with 10, while second place has 6. 

 

Many were wondering if Seattle was finally in a rebuild following the departures of Bears legends Hulk Hogan, Scott Greene, Rayz Funk and Berocka Sundqvist. Now, they must be not so so sure.
