Task 1 (written)

We are back and it is overtime in game 7 of the Eastern Finals. Toronto and Hamilton
battling it out in a do-or-die finale to an epic rollercoaster of a series!

One team will advance to the Finals, the other will see their season end.

Two minutes have passed in the first overtime so far and we have a face-off in Toronto territory.

It's Simons for the Hawks lining up against Barbashev for the Stars. Both teams with their first lines out.

Simons wins the draw and it back to Ziepins at the point. He tries to rattle it around the boards but Wartooth is there to block that dump-in.
Battling for the puck now in a scrum, it's Wartooth fending off Zarins and he retains control!

He bounces it off the side-boards and Barbashev scoops it up!

Barbashev with speed! He's through the neutral zone and into Steelhawks territory! He swings wide and looks to drop it to a trailing Falk!

It's tipped away by Ziepins and moved ahead to Clitsome steaming up the right side!

Clitsome gains entry and winds to fire a hard SHOT!!

Harter with a huge SAVE!! But he can't hold on!

Rebound! The puck is loose! Scramble!

Zarins presses in and tries to knock it free!

But it's Taylor getting her stick on it and desperately tries to clear it!

It's across the line, Zarins has it for Hamilton and they must clear the zone and regroup!

Zarins passes to Clitsome who charges in along the wall - he stops, spins, and feeds it back to Zarins at the point!

Zarins winds to SHOOT

But no!

He fakes the shot and steps around the sprawling defender!

Pass to Simons!

HE SHOOOOOOOTS

Oh he missed the net!

It's off the backboards and back in front!

Simons again!!




HE SCOOOOOOOORRRRRRESSSSSSSS!!!!!


GRIFFIN SIMONS THE PLAYOFF GOD!!!!! HAMILTON WINS! HAMILTON WINS!!!



TASK 2 (written)

VLAD McZehrl was a regular season all-star performer for the Seattle Riot. He scored 24 goals and added 32 assists for 56 total points. His total points was good for 5th in the league overall, and in goals scored he was in the top 10. He had an outstanding +/- rating of +30, also top 10 in the league. He was a dominant force in the regular season, the top scorer on his team by 15 points overall.

However, the playoffs arrived and he becamse completely invisible. He was absolutely shut down by the Calgary Dragons defense. In the 5 games it took Seattle to lose the series, McZehrl scored only 1 goal and added 1 assist for 2 points. The misery does not stop there. He went from being one of the top +/- players to sporting a -3 in the playoffs, a sign that he could not shut down his opponents either. He saw his shooting percentage halved as he went from 10.91% in the regular season to 5.26% when it mattered most.

Poor McZehrl, no wonder he got traded. VLAD is BAD.



TASK 3 (written)



TASK 4 (written)

Wyatt Wollker is a Challenge Cup champ! He lifts the trophy high above his head and skates around the ice, already imagining how he will spend his day with it! He thinks of home, back in Iceland, how almost the whole population of the country would turn out! After showing off the Cup in a parade around the streets of Reykjavik, to the adulation of his countrymen and seeing the inspired faces of the children, Wollker would then transport the trophy to a volcanic peak, and spend the night smoking and drinking with his brothers and a selection of the most beautiful women of his nation under the full moon, giving thanks to the Old Gods who have favored him! A night of wild debauchery and reckless abandon, while the cup gleams like a silver beacon as it reflects the silvery light of the moon!
