Task 1

I think the player who has had to overcome the most diversity up to this point is Dragon's goalie Richard C Hocolate. Richard is now in his 9th season and only 2nd season removed as a rookie. He spent most of his career as a backup to Dragon's legend Hunter Wong and never had a chance to shine. Now that he's been given the reigns as starter Hocolate has been able to lead the Dragons to the playoffs twice in a row and put up some great numbers this season in route to a championship appearance. This season Hocolate had to endure some transition at D for the Dragons as some young guys were called up and some of the vets have been hit hard with age. While the D corps hasn't been the best overall for most of the season he was able to still get the Dragon's into the playoffs and then lead them on a great run past the President's trophy winning Pride and defending champs in Winnipeg.

Task 2

My unsung hero of the playoffs so far has to be Dragon's goalie Richard C Hocolate. While the Dragons have been able to score from their forwards for most of the season and post season they've lacked Defensive scoring and have had some questionable games giving up far too many shots. Hocolate has come up huge for Calgary with his .904 save percentage and very good 2.83 goals against average. He was also able to hold a very high powered Jets offense to under 3 goals against average in their series. Including shutting them out once and holding them to 1 goal in a very close 2-1 win. On top of that Hocolate is an impressive 3-1 in overtime games this playoffs showing that when the pressure is on he can come up with the big saves. While a lot of the praise will go to some of the Dragon's top forwards such as Kurczewski and Randleman I think Hocolate has been every bit as crucial in this cup run as any other Dragon.
