When looking at predictions for the upcoming season, I full believe Newfoundland will win the Four Star Cup. Newfoundland last year made it to the semi-finals with a very young team before losing to Anchorage, and we return almost fully loaded and improved in every way. While it will be hard to replace captain Vaseline Podcalzone, we were able to draft sniper Evil Allbran, who has already lit up the SMJHL in preseason. With every player except for Allbran hitting either the 350 or 425 cap, we shoud be heavy favorites to win the Cup. We only lost one game throughout the preseason, and consistently had high goal scoring numbers, showing we’re going to be a strong offensive team this season. We are also going to be a physical team again as many of our players have leaned into the hitting philosophy. In terms of Slavakov Vladimirashenko, I believe he is going to play better than his rookie year, probably getting around 30 points versus the 17 he got his rookie year.
