TASK TWO: Who is your choice for the unsung hero of the S38 playoffs up to this point? Must be at least 150 words and include at least two statistics in support.

My choice for S38 playoff unsung hero is none of than then Mike Izzy from the Calgary Dragons. He had a great regular season and that carried into the playoffs just falling a game short of the challenge cup. Izzy isn’t scared of the corners and is in fact one of the first people to throw a hit leading his time with 61 hits in 17 games played which is really impressive for a young players. Another impressive stat from Izzy is his shooting percentage just over 16%. Through the 17 games played he also managed to produce 7 points on the third line and 2nd power play unit. One of the best aspects of Izzy’s game is his physical play, he gets rid of the big players and creates room for the snipers, and however it’s great that Izzy can still collect points while throwing some shoulders every now and then.


TASK FOUR: What rookies or young players are looking to make a name for themselves during the Finals? How have they contributed to the team on the way to the Finals? Must be at least 150 words, and include two statistics.

My choice for a young player that needs to make a name for himself is none other than Crossfit Jesus from the Manhattan Rage. He already has one challenge cup under his belt when he was called up after the scarecrows were eliminated from the playoffs in the SMJHL. Crossfit was ready to prove to everyone he could make a big impact on the team with a confirmed role. During his run in the playoffs he played on the second line where he managed to produce 4 goals and 3 assists and even 2 – Third Stars of the Game. Another impressive stat from Crossfit is his 60 shots on net in 20 games and finished the final series with +5. He was able to get the puck to the net and help his team capture the challenge cup. He was a very crucial young player for the Manhattan Rage and I think he made a great impact.


TASK FIVE: It’s Zamboni time! The teams have been asked by the SHL offices to re-design their Zamboni with a Finals theme. Please use your creativity on this and make it specific to one of the teams in the finals. Must include a logo from a team in the Finals and a color scheme appropriate to the team.



TASK SEVEN: Design a t-shirt or a rally towel for one of the teams in the finals. Must include some text (a slogan), the team’s logo and a local sponsor for the giveaway.
