Quote:Task 1: In an effort to excite the millennials and urban street youth, the SHL wants a hip/hop promotion for this years challenge cup! Using the youtube beat above, create a 150 word or more Rap/R&B jam about the championship series!  The song must have at least 1 verse and 1 chorus and include players from either or both teams.

Verse 1:
Winnipeg and West Kendall,
Both start with dubs,
Neither team with any scrubs,
Light, Langabeer, and Leafer Rielly,
All reppin' the city of Miami,
But Winnipeg don't fear any game 7's
with the crew of Bearss, Visser, and Zach Evans.
Two teams from other ends of the continent
Winning is the only way to be content
Jets versus Platoon
So much skill with no goons
Challenge Cup on the line
Don't worry folks it is finally time

Chorus:
The Challenge Cup is here
Sit down and crack a beer
Two of the SHL's best
East versus west
Jets trying to get back to the promised land
Toonza trying to start a winning trend
Another great year of hockey comin' to an end
Who will be our new champion comin' round the bend
Get ready for the end of the party
Maybe @Samee will give us one more
"FUCKING c"

Quote:Task 2: Oh no! scandal has hit championship week here on day 2! as a beat reporter from TMZ obtained the police reports of a highly embarrasing arrest made from one of the players in the challenge cup series!.. In 150 words or more, create an official SHL press report to release to the media with a picture related to the incident, the details of this incident, what player or players were involved and the official response of the league.

As of 8am this morning, the SHL Head Office was made aware of very serious reports that one of our players was involved in an incident last night. We in the Head Office take these reports and allegations very seriously and will report to only the facts that we are provided in this case. Last night, in the hotel that is housing the West Kendall Platoon, it was found that Jets' player Zach Evans (@ztevans ) was found in the hotel's kitchen trying to plant cookies with the food that was being sent for the Platoon players' dinners. Evans was spotted by a kitchen employee, who asked him what he was doing in a restricted area. Evans tried to talk his way out of the situation and eventually decided try to run from the scene. He was apprehended by hotel security and was later passed on to the police. His charges were minimal with just trespassing as the main charge, but due to Evans' known connection with cookies in the past, the league has no choice but to hire an independent lab to test the cookies for any substances. Evans will be allowed to play for Winnipeg, but will be placed on probation until the league can complete a full investigation into what Evans was doing last night.

Quote:Task 5: Newspapers and bloggers are covering the event all across the globe and they are looking for information to post to their readers!  Pick 3 of the topics below to write about!  Each topic is worth 1 TPE. Each answer must be 50 words or more.

- What young player has a chance to make a name for themself in this series?
- Who is the favorite and who is the underdog of this series and why?
- Which organization needs this championship more in terms of legacy?

Both of these teams are very heavy in older talent, but if I had to pick one of their younger players, I'd say Dionyz Vyskoc of the West Kendall Platoon is poised to breakout in this series. Vyskoc is a S38 player and had his best regular season to date this past season, and has shown that he is ready to put up important points for this Platoon team.

I think many would say that the Winnipeg Jets are the favorite in this series, just due to the pure star power they possess. With the likely regular season MVP in Jason Visser, the Jet's are loaded with top end talent and still have some younger talent that is growing. Which would mean that the Platoon are the underdogs in this series, but you can't overlook the amount of talent in their roster.

I think the Winnipeg Jets need this cup for their legacy more than the Platoon. The Jets haven't won the cup since S38, and with the amount of talent that this team has you'd expect that they would have one a cup since S38, and it really looks worse when you consider that they basically forced the banning of double shifting.

Quote:Task 9: We are just an hour away from the start of the challenge cup finals and you have been informed that Katy Perry has the gout and can not perform during the 1st intermission... YIKES!!!!!! ... to make matters worse Eggy and HO are not around to approve more money for a different act!  You have been chosen to take on the unenviable task of putting together something which the whole world is about to watch ...with nothing but the 11 dollars in your pocket.

In 150 words or more, explain what you came up with and how will it be implemented. The Plan must include a diagram or picture.

Some might think that 11 dollars isn't much, but that's why you buy in bulk. First, bulk buy the large party poppers (the absurdly powerful ones that definitely shouldn't be as available as they are) as a substitute for real fireworks and pyrotechnics. Next, we need to use our wit and use a female stage hand to be our fake Katy Perry. Should only take like 5 bucks max. Now everyone will know she isn't Katy, but not if they never see her! So we leave the curtain closed for the full performance and none shall be the wiser. So now we need to create a spotify premium account (using the free month for new users) to get the audio we need to pull this off. Now that we have the pyrotechnics, entertainment, and audio figured out, we just need to get the lighting and we get an LED flashlight to use as a spotlight and shine is on "Katy" behind the curtain to create a silhouette through the curtain. And boom we have a kick ass performance for less than 11 dollars.
