Ace Lightning is no stranger to social media. He grew up just as it was exploding on the scene and he has only gained a little bit of a following because of his hockey exploits in Toronto. Ace started off by tweeting a lot, thinking he was a funny guy, until the team told him to knock it off, so instead he created a burner account of get his real feelings out there. A lot of it is just defending his own self, or lighting up another team or player he doesn’t like, in order to make himself feel better. He will also comment incessantly on others posts in order to prop himself up, to the point where it is very obvious that the person behind the account “acelightningrocks123” is in fact Ace Lightning himself. He hasn’t had to use it much this season because him and the team have been playing well but I’m sure this isn’t the last you’ve seen of the account.

My Line mate is John peanut.

We are like 2 Peanuts in a pod. We have been playing together since day 1 of call ups. I think our chemistry has to be close to capped out as we work towards making this team into a playoff threat and a net positive goal total team. Montreal is coming close and closer to that goal everyday as we carve our way to the top of the division. I think where me and Peanut bond the most is combining our two things we love more than almost anything. The WWE and Legumes being enjoyed as we watch Raw and Smackdown each week when able to between practices and games. Legumes give us a lot of essential nutria we need clearly and the WWE fires us up for the game to enact some levels of controlled violence as we beat up the other team and drive home the play offensively. Its the perfect combination for chemistry long term.

(Prompt 1)

I don't talk to NOBODY on my team all those guys are a bunch of jerks. It's only business I'm here strictly to make money and then spend that money at my local casino cause to be honest I've been pretty deep in the negative for a while and I gotta get back to being positive and the only way to do that is to gamble more. I refuse to talk to my team cause I feel like as soon as I start doing that they're gonna start doing really lame stuff like inviting me out to events and dinners and stuff that just sounds dumb and stupid why would I want to do that. The only time I would even consider talking to my teammates is if they were asking me for gambling advice then I would probably tell them everything I know cause everybody deserves the chance to hit it big at their local gambling venue.

Prompt 1

Andrade La Sombra has always been close with his former Colorado teammates, and during his tenure on the North Stars, he found himself to be a bit of a loner comparatively. So when he was traded to the Minnesota Monarchs, swapping teams once more, he found himself again once on the loner side. However, La Sombra had a renewed passion for the sport, looking to the rest of his teammates to help make him a better hockey player. It's a new environment, a new community, and La Sombra has accepted it full force.

Because La Sombra and his teammates on the line and on the offense haven't been playing very long together, the chemistry has yet to develop. This might be contributing to the lack of stats on the Monarchs; though, throughout his tenure with the SHL in general, he has not been a stat junkie regardless. Community is his top priority, and La Sombra is looking to foster a great one in Minnesota.

Written Option 2:
Social Media is omnipresent. It controls peoples lives, it demands attention all the time and it enables the worst of us to appear like they are the best of us. In short, Social Media might be something that humanity as a whole was not prepared for, not discounting the positive aspects it brings. Gino is a staunch non-believer regarding Social Media. Much to the dismay of his coaches and especially PR attendants he refuses to create Social Media Accounts and interact with people there. When he was asked at a press conference once about his social media activity he, as we got to know him, brunt als always replied that he simply doesn't have Social Media anymore, he ditched it when his career took off and never regretted that decision.

While this means he can interact less with his fans he still participates in Podcasts or other Social Media products of teammates or the team as a whole. However Social Media will never find a way back into Gino's private life if he can help it.

Written Option 1: 

Agreed, hockey is probably the biggest team sport on the planet. The reason is if 1 player doesn't do his job, the whole team will be impacted by it. And since there's only 5 players on the ice at the same time, bad results happen fast. Anthony's linemates are pretty much the same as last year (his rookie year) that upgraded from the 3rd line to the 2nd line. He has Kobe Frobe on the left wing and Darby Reznor on his right wing. Kobe is a veteran and is a key factror to the line with his experience. On the other side, Darby was drafted in the same year as Anthony so the chemistry is really good. We're also very complementory to each other, having different roles and strenghts. They're always together on the ice helping each other out to make sure that we have as much impact as a line as possible. We have the same desire to win and we're working hard to make sure we're performing to the highest level.

It’s tough to avoid social media when you’re raised on it, and all your friends and family are on it but in his third year in the SMJHL, Jett Labyrinth has managed to limit his social media use to a healthy amount. During his first year, especially around the time of the SHL Draft, Jett was constantly online to see what people were saying about him and his draft stock. It was mostly positive things being said about him, although the negative comments really started to get to him. It took a lot for him to not clap back at some of the trolls but he knew that’s how they win so he used restraint and ignored them. Jett took measures to limit his time on social media and stopped searching for his name. Now, Jett is much more confident in himself as a player and doesn’t feel like he needs to read other people’s opinions on him to validate his success on the ice.

Written Option 1

When Oliver Cornwall hit the ice for his last season in the J, it is alongside none other than longtime defense partner David Vent. Vent and Cornwall have been playing (mostly) on the same pairing since the departure of former Whaler Groaty Bronson. Vent, a defenseman with huge offensive upside, is a great compliment for the more two-way focused Cornwall. In a nice twist of fate, Cornwall and Vent were both selected by the New England Wolfpack in the first and second rounds respectively. The two share a mostly professional relationship, but they're bound to spend some time together given that they are together literally all the time on the ice. In the interests of not getting absolutely sick and tired of each other, they limit contact outside of the rink. With that said, when they're on the ice together they share the same headspace, making plays without a second's hesitation because they know each other so well.

Written Option 2:

Before the advent of social media, players had only two sources of feedback from the public at-large: in-person interactions with fans, and stories in the media. Both of these were fairly easy to avoid if a player really didn't want to hear what people actually thought of them.

These days, the internet and social media are an ever-present force in everyone's life, and it's no exception for Barcus Juneau. Before he turned pro, Barcus wasn't overly active on social media. He has always been part of friend networks on a few platforms, but he's a bit skeptical of the power and reach of social media.

When he was first drafted into the SMJHL and the eyes of the hockey world started to turn his way, Barcus decided to keep a close lid on his socials, and he has been generally pretty quiet ever since. He does dare to look occasionally at who is following him and what they have to say, but he knows that only madness lays in that direction. What matters is what his friends and family say, and he is happy to make his public statements on the ice.
