TASK ONE: 
Roman Augustus, born in Pensacola, Florida in October 16, 1996 is a hockey defenseman playing for the Calgary Dragons in the Simulation Hockey League. Lauded as a generation talent, this two-way defenseman excels in his own zone and has a deadly offensive edge. Augustus was drafted in the first round of the Season 36 SHL Entry Draft at 10th overall by the Dragons and has been with them since. 

Augustus started his career with the St. Louis Scarecrows of the Simulation Major Junior Hockey League. Drafted in the third round of the Season 35 SMJHL Entry Draft at 24th overall, there's no way anyone could have predicted he would become the player he is now. 

Roman Augustus' rookie campaign in the SHL's Season 38 was no small feat. He scored 3 goals and 18 points in the 50 games as well as blocking 78 shots. His defensive ability was already shining through as best on his team even at the young age, and he's only improved.

TASK TWO:
In seasons passed I would always pick Fedor Shirobokov as my unsung hero. I would love to do the same this season, but it seems Minnesota missed the playoffs. As delighted as I am by that, I'm saddened that my good friend Shirobokov doesn't get to take a crack at the cup. In his place, my unsung hero of the playoffs would have to be a homer pick. Colton Hagan carried his regular season success well into the playoffs and did his best to carry Texas further than we made it. Scoring 6 points in 5 games is not as impressive as, say, Joe Kurczewski's scoring ability, but it was sorely needed on a young Texas roster. He matched that with a very good +3, good enough for best on the team. He managed to hold himself to only 6 PIMs in 5 games as well which, believe me, is very impressive for his rambunctious player. Truly establishing himself as a top 6 player on any team, Colton Hagan is not yet going to receive the praise he deserves.

TASK SEVEN: 
Otis B. Driftwood will have the biggest impact for the Calgary Dragons as far as young players go. The Dragons have no shortage of excellent defenseman in their core, so for a young player to step in in his rookie campaign and perform so well on the third pairing is no small task. Scoring one goal and four points in their ten games, he also sports an excellent +3 which, for a bottom pairing defenseman, is extremely good. All of this is accomplished on the minimal 12.10 minutes per game.

New England's best young player is Manuel Gotze. The youngest on his team, Gotze plays the right wing on the second line. To step in and play top 6 time is very impressive. So far in his 12 games he's scored four goals and six points. He has excellent accuracy as he has 25 total shots and sports a 16% shot percentage.
