TASK ONE The player between the two finals teams that faced the most adversity and obstacles throughout his career would be Dragons goaltender Dick Chocolate. Chocolate's whole career has been riding the back seat to Hunter Wong. Wong who's finally hung up the skates has left open a spot for Chocolate. Last season wasn't the greatest as he was mildly inconsistent for a lot of the season. He played solid against a Riot squad last season that had cannons shooting at every angle at the time. This season, he had quite a slow start, as well as a slow defense in front of him. A lot of times he was left out to dry. However, towards the end of the season. The consistency got more . . consistent. The defense started tightening up, and he's played great. He's been the head of the army leading them to the cup. His goal has finally come and now he's attempting to lead the Dragons to another cup in a short time.

TASK TWO The unsung hero of these playoffs so far would have to be another player per the Calgary Dragons. Mike Izzy. He has 7 points in 11 games which seems decent enough. However, what's impressive is his moments of clutch. He's came up big in the games such as the hat trick against the Jets. He also had an overtime winner in that series. Along with that, Izzy has 46 hits. He's been physical and actively engaged in the game to motivate his team. He's setting the tone of the game with his heavy hitting offense. Izzy's never been known as a pure sniper, but he's realized that and gone to the dirty areas to pick up his goals. Izzy had quite the struggling rookie season, but this season after a slow start, he's picked up his mojo. Now these playoffs, he has 6 goals and an assist. The Dragons will be looking for him to tally a few more.

TASK FOUR A rookie or young player that'll have to step up these finals for each team will have to be Roman Augustus for the Calgary Dragons and Crossfit Jesus for the Manhattan Rage. First, for the Dragons, Roman Augustus had a solid rookie season. He had a few defensive woes to be aware of, but once he got that figured out, he would be a solid top 4 defenseman for the Dragons. In the finals, he is responsible for 8 assists. The Dragons will definitely want him to be a big time player. Known for a rapidly increasing shot, Esa will be looking for him to use it more often as he only has 7 shots on net. For Crossfit Jesus, he's had a very weak post season. He had one of the best rookie seasons to remember and had a solid season for the Rage, but the Rage would like to see him step up in the finals. Some secondary scoring from him will be necessary for the Rage to knock off the Dragons. He's definitely capable of it, and he looks for nothing more than the spotlight. I can see him being a dark horse for the Cup winning goal. Only 5 points won't cut it, but they're in the finals, so it's now or never. He's had a lot of shots on goal, so he's due for some memories to behold.

TASK SIX If I were the coach of the Manhattan Rage, I wouldn't make any changes because my team's in the finals. However, if I was forced to start from scratch. My lines would be these:

Center - LW - RW
Ace Redding - Crossfit Jesus - Bennet Jones 35%
Brett Kennedy - Harry Hans - Rurik Razin 30%
Dean Colt - Geoffrey Allen - Luke Atmey 30%
Ace Redding - Harry Hans - Luke Atmey 5%

Bubba Nuck - Winston Windsor 40%
Hunky Monkey - Wyatt Wolker 40%
Niklas St. Croix - Nuckky Toohoots 15%
Bubba Nuck - Wyatt Wolker 5%

Why you may ask? Well, the bottom line is that Manhattan has too many snipers on the team, so I decided to put a playmaker on each line. I moved Crossfit Jesus up to the first line to get his offense going with a stud like Redding and a playmaker like Bennet Jones. The 2nd line is not much different. BK who's a sniping center with a high profile sniper as Harry Hans. Razin is there to be a playmaker to feed the puck. The 3rd line has Allen and Atmey, two studs on the third line? Well, it's to spread the depth, and they get plenty of ice time regardless. Dean Colt's player is shoot first (or skate first), with Allen and Atmey being great snipers. The 4th line is just putting the top players of each line on one line. The overall thought on these forward lines is to spread depth throughout the roster.

The defense is identical to the current Rage defense as I find everything about it lovely.
