TASK ONE
Write a blog post about any post season game of S30. Can be a game preview, a recap, something silly like a review of what colour laces a player is wearing. Must be 150 words

Jakob Tanner. He's been here before and he's been there before. That is he's familiar with the pressure of being one win away from a Cup Finals appearance and he's got it done at the next level. His two cups with Hamilton in S24 and S26 were no fluke and his countless awards to go along with it increases his accolades. Still, this game pounded on his nerves and not even six shots of whiskey could calm the anxiety of getting through warm-ups and the National anthem. A shot at his 7th Finals appearance rested in his ability to shutdown the other team one more time in the next two games. Tanner didn't want a Game 7 though, he wanted this to end right here and right now. The Edmonton Blizzard await and he would be ready weather the storm and guide his team to the light (and a drunken haze celebrating his third cup).

A quick shot from Jed Lloren early in the game shattered his nerves as he flashed the leather and felt his confidence building. Tanner would go on to shut them down with 30 saves allowing just one Zallerras Szlerchek one-timer to find the back of the net. The Wolfpack would conquer the world and take it 6-1. Tanner was going to his seventh finals and couldn't be any fucking happier.

TASK THREE
Who is your MVP candidate for these playoffs and why? Must be 150 words and have 3 stats minimum.

While I originally would have continued writing about Tanner, upon further inspection and consideration I have decided Raven Silverwing is the true MVP and unsung hero of the New England Wolfpack.

FIVE. Yes that's a number, that's the number of game-winning goals Silverwing had for the Wolfpack in these playoffs including THREE of them in Overtime situations in rounds one and two. Raven only had 6 goals in the whole playoffs and 5 of them were game-winners for the Wolfpack. Perhaps not the most productive statistically, but certainly the most efficient and clutch.

SEVEN. That's the number of helpers Silverwing also added to the team over 14 games. Perhaps not as much of a clutch statistic but certainly contributing to the reason this team won the cup.

Silverwing would finish one point shy of a point per game and third in team scoring despite averaging far less minutes than some of the Wolfpack star players.
