Americans Season Part 1

[TheLastOlympian07 2,388]

The New York Americans went into the season with modest expectations of not winning much games but keeping them close. Apart from some blowouts, I think it is mission accomplished so far in New York, New York. The Americans are 5-12-4 for 14 points which is 2nd last in the VHL just ahead of the Los Angeles Stars and just behind the Malmo Nighthawks. 5 wins and 4 OT/SO losses are awesome in my opinion and I can recall maybe 1 or 2 games where the Americans lost by more than 5 goals in those 12 losses. I think that is successful because we are in most games then lose at the end. We need a year then maybe we can start pushing to win more games then in 2 years we will be playoff contenders. That is how I envision this season and beyond going.

 

Shawn Andrei Zyuzin by the way is having himself a decent rookie season on the blueline with 1 goal and 5 assists for 6 points in 21 games to go along with 81 hits and 46 shots blocked. He also has 40 PIM on the season which seems like a lot at this point. Overall, this was a lot like how I would imagine his season going as a defensive defenseman.
