Zhenya Miles Player Profile:
I wondered if something wasn't up with Zhenya Miles. The Vipers acquired defenceman Jordan Gudridge from Sherwood Park November 13th 2024. Gudridge made his Vipers debut last weekend vs Okotoks wearing Zhenya Miles #6. Miles was still on the Vipers roster and lineup sheet but didn't play and wasn't announced as a scratch. I have been following Miles daily since and even as of today is still listed on the Vipers roster. I finally found him on the Pistons roster this afternoon.
ReplyDeleteI thought Miles played well at times but other times didn't. He would look real good one night, then not so good the next.
I have to question the Vipers and why they aren't keeping fans informed with player moves/transactions. The Vipers have made no mention of several players either being released or leaving the team this season and I have to wonder why? This is how rumors start. Here is a list of former players from this season that were either released or left the team and no mention from the Vipers. Zhenya Miles, Joey Mugaas, Vinny Ipri, Ethan Buenaventura, Payton Struck, Roarke Gilmour, Adam Csabi & Carter Streek.
It's been very difficult to follow the team and get interested in the team/players when so many players are coming and going so quickly, you need a lineup sheet to know who's still with the team this week.
This season is a mess and a major disappointment! Will anyone from the start of the season be here before the season ends? This is crazy! In all of my years following the Vipers I can never recall so many player moves/transactions in one season more then this year. How are you suppose to recruit players for next season and the future when players don't last a full season? Who would want to come here if they know they will be traded/released within a month? How is this team suppose to gel, bond and become a team with players moving in or out every few days/weeks? I don't get it.
With the poor recruiting and the amount of player turnover this season you now know why the team is struggling and only has 6 wins.
Only one explanation and that’s whoever the GM is-and it’s not the coaches-is calling the shots and it’s clear it’s not working. How do you build consistency with a team when the rug is pulled every 5 minutes. Shame on the puppeteer.
DeleteWhen you see where all of these guys land it becomes clear that it’s not necessarily a recruiting problem related to talent. I don’t know any player that would agree to sign and sit in the bleachers. They obviously tell these guys something to get them here and then change the plan. It’s on the coaches either way. They either have no eye for talent or BS kids and expect them to stay. Insanity!
DeleteCooper Cleaves is now the only defenseman who began the season on the roster. All others are additions.
ReplyDeleteCooper is probably the only committed player whose scholarship is safe. He's good and his big brother Hank plays there. As for the rest, best of luck to you.
DeleteGuess it's time for Johnny's big brother to fire someone again...... maybe John?
ReplyDeleteCoach needs to go ASAP
DeleteZhenya great kid, great family..definitely not part of the problem. It is impossible for this team to create chemistry when the roster changes weekly and the line combos change almost as frequently
ReplyDeleteAgain a huge "thank you" to VDHF for keeping us informed on "all things Viper". It is frustrating and disappointing the lack of info that comes from the Viper head office. As paying fans we are invested heavily in our team and deserve to be informed.
ReplyDeleteHave you not figured it out that ownership doesn't care about you. They only care about the $$$. So show them how much you care about them, STOP going!!! You are no longer supporting the boys as most of them are no longer here.
