Noel Blanchet, while normally very outgoing and vocal, is not much of a prankster. He never found he was very creative when it came thinking up original pranks and didn't want to re-use the same old ones everyone else does. But one day came where he had the great idea of pretending to be a reporter during a zoom availability for the press. Here are some of the questions he presented to his teammates:

To new teammate Ryu Jones:
Hi Ryu, some fans are upset you did not adopt former platoon Elijah Jones number 33. Now fans must buy a new Jones jersey, instead with number 27. How do you defend such a selfish decision?

To veteran defensemen and locker room jokester Valentin Kalashnikov:
How are you fairing this season without the stunning, amazing, GOAT defensemen and personal role model Oliver Cleary on the team?

To team General Manager Jon Ross:
Do you think the decision to draft Alexei Komarek will work out? The team has a history of drafting busts out of his player agency.

Responses to these questions were unfortunately did not meet the guidelines of television stations and so did not air.
