S63 PT #4: Into the SHLverse

Prompt Two:

The craziest thing for my current player, Xavier Doom, to think about is really what could happen if he didn't have to be tethered to New Orleans his whole career. He started off nice, winning the Rookie of the Year, but now as the losses piled up during the rebuild, would I have stayed if give the choice? I'd honestly assume yes, i would, but let's say I did leave. If i took the road mostly traveled and went to a top team, would Doom being the running for MVP? Would he be getting insane amounts of points on Hamilton? Probably not. Honestly, at this point I probably would've gone to a Tampa Bay, Los Angeles, or Baltimore type of team that is *close* to winning the cup but needs an extra bit of help and excitement. It's weird having had Doom miss the playoffs a bunch, simply because on my last player in Joe K scored a bananas amount of playoff points, so that almost became the standard to me. I wouldn't actually change a thing, but it's always fun to imagine.

Wow, what a shocker honestly. There exists a world with a happy version of me, one that isn't hampered by the mental languish of the SHL. One that has never met and never will know who @James Truong is. That is a version of me I would want to meet and hope to one day become.

In my alternate universe tale, the breaking point isn't on this current player. It's back in S39, in a world where Nuck doesn't have a meltdown about a losing team and a copypasta meme. This world where I finish out my career of simming and give up the SHL for good as I had planned. I read more, I'm likely a lot more intelligent in that world honestly. I could be more fit too, not taking time on SHL, I may be continuing my old workout regiment.

This is a world that has a lot less stress, truthfully. Who knows what else I've gotten into at that point, but the simplest fact is that I have deviated heavily from this path I am on.

If it has to be about the player I'm on currently, I don't even know. He probably has a slighly different name, I almost named him Jasper instead of Jesper. He probably is a defenseman, as that was the original plan. He probably is on Regina, the team that originally held the number one overall pick in the SMJHL draft, rather than trading it they held on for him. I can't make many grand statements about him, it's only a couple seasons into his career. However there are definitely some differences that would be noticeable at first glance.

An old man's dream ended. A young man's vision of the future opened wide. Young men have visions, old men have dreams. But the place for old men to dream is beside the fire.

GOING DOWN IN STYLE. TOAST4LYFE

Prompt 2

My last player Ti-Guy Emond had a pretty big impact on how GMs view my current player when I recreated. If it wasn't for rules change after the whole Hamilton fiasco, I probably don't go inactive. Having to pretty much change the whole build lost my interest in the player and the league and I went away for a year. If I stuck around like I planned to, I would have been one of the last s39 to still be around and seen as a user who you can trust to stay active. I drop hard in the SMJHL draft and even though I was one of the top earner of my rookie class I was only drafted at number 35 in the big league. I was also almost let go for free and had to work something for this not not happen. Hopefully Marco Barengrub will give me a better reputation when it will be time to recreate once more. If you only focus on the player alone, I should have been a top 10 pick.

Oh no! This is not what I was trying to do. I opened a portal to an alternate universe and my doppelganger Dayne Zangle has emerged. The only noticeable difference between the two of us is he doesn't have hair because is balding while I have a full head of hair. Other than that we look exactly the same and both have amazing hockey skills that everyone is extremely jealous of. While checking out another universe would be cool I would instead convince my doppelganger, Dayne Zangle, to join me in this universe. Together we could take over the SHL! We would be like the next Sedins. I would have him become commissioner and I would be GM of any team I wanted. Together we would win all the championships and become the best (and second best) S62 players. Rashford would have to settle for third best and maybe we let Jammin in the top 50 or something.

Prompt 2:

There was a point in the recent past where Arsene Leclerc was looking into free agency and wasn't sure if I would take that jump or not. Being a life-long Monarch at this point, I don't know if things would ever really feel right if I left the team, but looking at what was going on at the time with the team struggling and having some internal decisions having to be made, as well as seeing a few of my age group walk before me left me with some real decisions to make. There was a period where I thought it was very likely I would leave the team if things didn't work out right. But look at me now, a short couple of seasons later and I am locked up long-term on a hometown discount, leading the team on and off the ice, to the best of my ability of course. Minnesota still has a lot of things to figure out before we get back to the promised land, and it may take a while, and who knows if I will ever get that elusive cup or not, but things always feel right in Minnesota for me and I don't know if I would want to try anywhere else just for the sake that I have been in or around minny for such a long time and even though a lot of the faces have changed, I still feel connected to the team even if it is full of new faces from top to bottom from the first day I joined. Pouring one out for all my old teammates who aren't in the LR anymore or who left the site over the past 5-6 years, but I don't know if I will ever really want to leave. Maybe if I get pushed out kicking and screaming in regression.

Prompt 1: As I play with my copy of the Necronomicon, another me steps forward from the dark portal to the Shadow Realm. This me is everything that is dark and twisted. Sadistic, violent, murderous and torturous. Dude is, in other words, fucked up. But me, the person that I am would try to reason with him, surely he's not all that bad, right? He is me, after all? Wrong! Now he tries to kill my friends on the Outlaws, so I get my holy gun with holy water. This dark twisted version of me has got to go! So, I shoot him, and grab my Necronomicon to send him back to the Shadow Realm and his friends on the other side. As he slowly sinks back into the Book of the Dead, I smile in relief and wipe my brow, as I destroy that dark, twisted part of me that clearly shouldn't have messed with me, because I AM me.

One boring night, there I am, just sitting around, practicing a little dark magic. What could go wrong, right? Next thing I know, a big puff of smoke and someone that looks exactly like me appears in my room. He introduces himself as Nannerb. That's odd I'm thinking. He informs me, he too was practicing a bit of magic and next thing he knew, here he was. He tells me he's a forward from the Edmonton Blizzard in what he beleives is another universe. I think about maybe briefly joining him, but then decide no, I can't see my doppelganger in a different jersey then the Dragons, let alone our rival in the Blizzard. We talk for a bit, then say our goodbyes. A puff of smoke appears and Nannerb is gone. Next thing I know, I wake up in a puddle of sweat. Was it all a dream? It felt so real.

I guess there are a number of ways my player’s career could have turned out differently. As far as the SMJHL draft goes, the only team (other than Carolina) that I think would have taken me earlier was Detroit. However, if Carolina hadn’t taken me at #14, Vancouver or Newfoundland would have definitely taken me at #15 or #16. I’d have a Four Star Cup ring if that had happened. I wouldn’t trade my time in Carolina for that or anything really though.

In Carolina, I think Atticus Hale would have had a more illustrious career if not for his rookie season. Due to either a logjam of players in front of him or maybe even some uncertainty hanging over his activity or longevity, he was stuck on the 4th line the entire season. This led to a disappointing 19 point output that season. He broke out the following season though with 44 points primarily from the 3rd line.
