The Maine Timber wanted to make this Halloween party the scariest one yet, so they had it in the most thematic place they could think of: The Maine Forest. They brought the entire party to the deepest, darkest part of the woods they could and there in a moon lit clearing, they had their party. It began with them all, dressed in hooded robes as black as the night was, standing in a circle. In the middle was an altar. The faint sound of bleating could be heard as they brought in a goat. Placing the goat upon the alter, they went about their ritual to the Forest King, cutting free the goats heart from it’s chest before tossing it onto the nearby fire. They chanted then, the voices of the team as one as they beseeched their Forest King for the power to defeat their foes.

Then they got drunk.

This year, the Dragons decided to bring back their rookies from the past draft from their junior team and did the rookie hazing on Halloween night. The Dragons took Zoidberg, Rose and Wong and forced them all to wear a ridiculous costume. Wong decided to be a baby for Halloween, and the entire team just had to laugh when he walked in. What got worse was each rookie had to tell a horror story on stage in their ridiculous costume. After their horror story, the rookie had to completely change their gear and then do a 5 minute stand up act. The last thing each rookie had to do? Sing a song chosen by the team. After all the shenanigans, the Dragons went on to have a normal Halloween party. Unfortunately for Mats Marner, he got a little too drunk and tried asking out his own general manager, Esa! What a fool, hopefully his ice time doesn’t get reduced for that.

Halloween is one of the best times of the year, and this time I was able to spend it with the rest of the Wolfpack. This year I dressed up as Mortal Kombat character and all around badass Erron Black. I was pretty happy with the how the costume turned out and I think it fit pretty well considering I am the one of the sharpshooters for New England. The party was held at our GM's house and not only included all the players but all the staff on the team. Mitchell van der Hejder came as Vincent van Gogh (which I guess the name is pretty close). Frans Eller and Dom Montgomery brought some awesome movies to watch. Weirdly Clean Andrei never showed up but I'm assuming he was out looking for his brother. My buddy Zomp came as Farva from Super Troopers but he kept checking his phone muttering about when the newest shoe would be available to buy. The Swedes and Perry Morgan were disgusted with what we call chocolate and I gotta say the European chocolate is much better.

So Austin Roenick does not like to dress up as someone other than himself. So the rage Halloween part, everyone dressed up as someone they hate. Everyone basically dressed up as the hamilton steelhawks. It was pretty obvious that we all dressed up as shitty steelhawks players and everyone had a great costume. We all wore a shitty blue and grey jersey which looked ugly and scary and that fit halloween very well. So who had the best constume? Austin Roenick did of course. He dressed up as Aaron Wilson and my god, is he scary. Whenever he is seen, people go the opposite direction. He is like the same electron as us and we repel. We stay away from him. On the ice and off the ice. He is ruthless and no one wants to be near him and his big brain shit except hamilton and that is how scary that place is. Ghost town city.

I was part of the committee that helped plan the Citadelles’ Halloween party, of course, to help us gather ourselves and party a bit before playoffs started! It was held in the General Manager’s mansion, a brave proposal provided how rowdy we can get sometimes, and just about everyone showed up in costume! I was a little worried, as two of our teammates dressed up in a weird animal combination costume that I couldn’t quite understand – especially since it wasn’t the traditional horse or camel… or whatever two-person costume people try to mess around with these days – and our leading man Stan Q dressed up as Ariana Grande. Not sure I quite understand, but maybe it’s a running gag with the team? He definitely rocked the costume though.

But that wasn’t all – Zdenko, whose first name I try to avoid saying because I don’t know how to pronounce it – showed up in an adidas track suit? I’m not sure I understand it entirely, but he looked very comfy and kept squatting throughout the night. Maybe he’s training for something?

To be honest, I dressed up as a blurry mirror image. It fits, don’t you think? Can’t even see me coming to block your shot!

Check me out, actually doing my PT this week instead of just saying I would.

This year with the Steelhawks has been an eye opening one. Every day with these guys is a new experience so I had looked forward to/been terrified of this year's Halloween party. There have been a few pop culture costume choices what with people dressing up like viruses, politicians and so on, but the Hawks chose probably the biggest of them all to do a group costume, Among Us. Not only is it an easy costume to make well, but it's great for social distancing, that is... until things got weird. 30 minutes into the party, I see @Gwdjohnsonin his blue suit getting ready to empty the garbage. "What a nice thing for him to do considering this isn't his house.", I think. Strange though, it's been an hour since I last saw him, oh well, he's probably just gotten lost. Oh look, there's @Hallsy is his poo suit just sitting at this venue's security desk just watching the cameras. Weird, you'd think he'd be enjoying the open bar, but no, he's just standing there looking over the guard's shoulder. Oh hey, a bright pink suit, it's @nour, but why does he have a gas can? Is he going to fill up his car? Didn't he Uber here? I could've sworn I saw @dmills3 lurking around in his purple spacesuit, but he's just so hard to spot. Especially because it seems like someone is turning down the lights. It's so dark in here. I should really find the light switch. Which of these five switches turns them back on? There we go. What a stupid design, who would ever guess that you have to turn them all on? "Hey guys, I figured it ou...." Where did everyone go? Why is @DrunkenTeddy the only one here? Why does he have that gun? IS HE POINTING IT AT ME? WHAT THE FU-

Like every party of the Texas Renegades the whole thing was one big fucking mess. The Renegades take any excuse they can get to throw a party, so Halloween was no different. If it wasn't for our captain Andreas Kvalheim requiring people at least make an attempt at coming in costume im sure only a handful of us would have, probably just the rookies. the defenseman coordinated their costumes, with the four returning players of Horvat, Brusky, Leppanen, and Scianna dressed as fence posts, and we forced the rookies of Sondergard and Fantobens to come in giant penis costumes. Get it, we were the D and the Fence. Everyone had a great time drinking and playing games, some may ask why the Texas Renegades would party so hard on the night before their next playoff game. And their answer to you would be either to grab a beer or go away.

The Vancouver Whalers had an amazing Halloween party. They decided to hold it on Halloween at the Pacific Coliseum because Vancouver had a bye for the first round of the tournament so there was dick all else going on there this week. Name Redacted spent most of the time being socially un-distant while dressed up as an actual good goalie, Jon St. Ark. Continuing the joke from the last week of the regular season, Captain Ryosuke Sato dressed as a forward. The big hit of the night was Dee Centerman IV who, with his stature, came dressed as 3 Valtterri Kauppinens in a trenchcoat. Kauppinen himself glued some dog hair to his face and walked around on his knees all evening and called himself Mills. The team partied pretty hard, trying to maintain a relaxed state about going into the tournament next week. They are feeling pretty good about their chances and the raucous event was their last chance to let out some steam before getting down to business.

Seeing as the Pride were out of the playoffs well in advance, they had extra time to prepare for their Halloween bash. None on the team took to this as well as Jeff Brogen (as most others sat in a funk and made a totally last minute costume after the poor showing of the season as a team). Brogen made an intricate costume to be a water well. With working pulley system, people could pull up a bucket of liquid from the bottom of the well. How did he carry this around all night? Nobody truly knows. What was the mysterious liquid? Well, nobody wants to know that. Whatever it was, it was potent and was managed to get the team obliterated through several rounds of stupidly complex drinking games that didn't entirely make sense. All in all, it was a party that helped lift the spirits of the team a bit, and help the rookies understand that they will need a little time to become forces in this league, and that there may be some bumps along the way.

a lot of the Manhattan Rage teammates all went over to the neighborhood that a lot of the Rage families tended to live. The veteran player Reginald MacIntyre and Reginald Rove first settled there, and everyone just kinda came and put down their roots there, and build a family there. But anyway everyone that had kids on the Manhattan Rage came over to the neighborhood and all the kids went and trick or treated, while the adults came over team Captains house, David Vent and had a good dinner until the kids came home. When the kids came back, they seperated the candy and had the trading of the candies of course. And then the parents tax of taking some candy as always. And then they all hopped into their cars and went home. Some of the kids dressed up as some Star Wars people, and others went as Spiderman, Superman,etc

Hamilton's Halloween party was fun, we all got drunk. We had some laughs, we watched friday the 13th together, I had 10 beers, and I went to bed a little bi early because I was a very tired boy. I went to the party in the speedo mostly because it is a meme within the steelhawks dressing room. speedo hallsy is a thing and i figured it would be a funny meme to do on Halloween. Nour went as some weeby anime character, gooney went in as a clown, waters dresse dup like an among us character, gabe was jar jar binks, we had other people show up to the party like kimmy who was a clown. We also allowed some special guests to the party, ferda went as a dead beat dad, and trella came as a nurse. It was a great time, and i hope we will do this again in future Halloweens

The Halloween Party was socially distanced and very responsible. Slip McScruff hasn't had a haircut in over 9 months, so he just threw on a hat and a poncho to become Forrest Gump. He had the best costume because he was the only person there. The shenanigans were in fact just Slip McScruff running mile after mile alone in the middle of nowhere Manitoba. Unfortunately, he did not pick up a crowd of followers like in the movie, but maybe that is for the best because that's not very safe these days. However, that also meant that there was no one to hear him say "I don't feel like running anymore" when he was ready to turn in for the night.

None of his teammates saw his costume, but he was locked into the Forrest Gump voice. They just assumed he had another Forrest Gump night since he watches that movie every other month. Even if your dope costume flies under the radar, sometimes it's important to just have a night for yourself enjoying what you love.

Halloween is always stupid fun at the Buffalo Stampede Party. Everbody, the players and coaches, come dressed in some crazy costumes.

The Co General Manager, Tomen, thought it would be fun to come dressed as a facist but we were a tad weirded out about it but hey its all in the Halloween spirit, it was some spoopy stuff!

Steve Harrington came dressed as Cousin IT from the Addams Family which everybody thought was funny and fairly fitting considering that flow.

The General Manager, Wannabefinn, came dressed as a Hobo which we also thought was rather fitting because he did not do anything. He also drank too much too quickly and was passed out on the couch for basically the entire night. We kind of all expected that, him just sitting there occupying space.

Matt Kholin came dressed as baby Yoda from Mandalorian which was the most adorable costume ever.

All in all it was an incredible night.
