Hi Chiefs! to be honest i dont believe that i have spoken with many from this franchise, so let me introduce myself here and thank each of you for taking the time to read my bio below.
Why do you want to be a chief: To be honest i dont know much about the Chiefs as of yet, but what i did like was that each of you stood up together united in that SMJHL post a few weeks back. It showed that there is heart within this group and a will to win... Something i appreciate! I want to be anywhere that wants and believes in Mike Izzy ..and that runs a methodology that i can appreciate... which is Hard work, friendly atmosphere and a commitment to win.
What is your activity level 1 - 10:

Goals for your player (Both build and player's career):
Pertaining to build, Mike Izzy should become an abrasive Power Forward that has multiple ways to hurt you on the ice. The goal is to create a build where you cant game plan against the Augment.. Points hits and a strong +- are the attributes i want to see Izzy excel at. I want to be that player that opposing teams get riled up to play against..
As for goals: my primary goal is to continue doing what ive done since joining back on March 28. Be active and engaged.. be a good team-mate.. and do my part to keep the franchise i play for happy and healthy.
At some point in my career id like Mike Izzy to be considered the face of the franchise. Id also like to wear the C one day.... and that C wont just come from whats done on the ice, the C will represent a virtual standard in activity, motivation and commitment to the methodology of our franchise.. i believe these are traits that Mike Izzy can excel at.
Lastly id like to become a member of the hall of fame. After my career is over id like to take a season off to regroup and then come back as an SHL GM.
Are you a one team kind of guy or will you be a guy to test free agency often: Theres something special about being one of the faces of a franchise. Being part of something that you helped mold and shape. I cant say for certain how my career will shape out.. but i can say that if the environment is right, i wont be looking over the yard at someone elses lawn.
Would you want to go to the SHL immediately or would you want to stay down in juniors: id like to stay down in the Juniors until my TPE and build are at a point where i can realistically contribute. Im not looking to be a 7 min a game player on the 4th line with a 363 TPE.

Favorite Hockey team: Leafs!
Hobbies outside the SHL: Fantasy sports commish.
Thank you Minni and best of luck to this franchise moving forward.
Why do you want to be a chief:
To be honest, I don't know a lot about the organization but I was hoping that you could tell me more about what you guys have going on. I took a look at your roster and noticed that you already have quite a bit of youthful talent at wing so I might not be the choice for the Chiefs at this point in time, but I'm still interested in learning more about the organization. You can shoot me a DM here on the forum or on discord.
What is your activity level 1 - 10:
I've been a 10 so far.
Goals for your player (Both build and player's career):
Strong 2 way forward with a slight emphasis on scoring. I want to win a butt-ton of championships in my career.
Are you a one team kind of guy or will you be a guy to test free agency often:
I would like to show loyalty to one team, but I can't guarantee anything. You never know when things will happen that might cause a change in plans.
Would you want to go to the SHL immediately or would you want to stay down in juniors:
I definitely want to spend some more time in the juniors. I want to be able to bank up some TPE before making the jump up to the big leagues. I would rather be impactful than a detriment.

Both

Why do you want to be a chief:
Minnesota is a club I don't know a lot about, but I've heard some things here and there and talked to people on the squad, and it seems like somewhere I would like to be a part of. I don't know if they're way up at the top of my preferred destinations, but falling to Minnesota and getting taken is far from a bad thing.
What is your activity level 1 - 10:
Right now, probably a 9 or a 10. I hope to keep it that way.
Goals for your player (Both build and player's career):
Win a Four-Star Cup, win a Challenge Cup, and be the best possible player I can be for my team. HOF would be nice, but I don't want to get ahead of myself or anything. As far as build, I'm looking to be a strong powerplay quarterback with an emphasis on dishing the puck and nabbing more than a few apples.
Are you a one team kind of guy or will you be a guy to test free agency often:
That ultimately depends on the team. I want very much to be a lifer somewhere, but if the atmosphere stops being engaging/fun to be a part of, then I'm going to try and test the waters of free agency. End of the day, I'm here to enjoy myself, and if I'm not, then maybe I will somewhere else.
Would you want to go to the SHL immediately or would you want to stay down in juniors:
Staying in juniors is one of my priorities. I want to win a Four-Star, obviously, but more important is building up a good reservoir of TPE to spend whenever I get the call. A ~300 TPE defenceman isn't going to do shit right now, so it would be better for all of us to wait until I can be a little more useful, I think.
Discord or forums or both:
I'm way more active on Discord, but I can do forums too.
Favourite Hockey team:
Edmonton.

Player Name and Page:Artom Zhumbayev Player Update Page:HERE Why do you want to be a chief: The Chiefs seem to be managed well and seem to be a team on the rise, so I could grow as the team grows. I don't recognize many names on the roster so that could be a great opportunity to meet some new people. What is your activity level 1 - 10: 9. Goals for your player (Both build and player's career): The goal is always to be the best at what you do, so naturally, my personal goal throughout my career will to become known as one of the best goaltenders ever to step between the pipes of an SHL net. As a team, the goal is always to win as much as possible so my team goal will be to lift the Challenge Cup as often as possible. Are you a one team kind of guy or will you be a guy to test free agency often: If you know me, you should know that I am very loyal to the team that drafts me. The first team that I ever tested the free agent market was when Carter O'Callahan was nearing the end of his career. Would you want to go to the SHL immediately or would you want to stay down in juniors: I would like to spent at least another season, maybe two in juniors before making the jump to the SHL so I could make an impact in my rookie season. Discord or forums or both: Both. Favorite Hockey team: Edmonton Oilers. Hobbies outside the SHL: Spending time with my new wife and my kids. I work away a lot so I relax every chance that I get. I also enjoy camping and taking random trips with my wife.
