4. Written, 3 TPE, League vs. League (150 words min.) Could any SMJHL team in history (if they were NOT capped at their usual 350/425 builds) have beaten any SHL team in history a 7 game series? Why or why not? What historical teams do you think are good candidates for this trial? Who do you think is the best team in SMJHL history and the worst team in SHL history? Would the J team have a chance? Make your case!
Answer: I am probably a bit biased but I think the season fifty five Newfoundland Berserkers are the best SMJHL team in history. When you look at things that team would have future SHL MVPs, top points scoeres at forward (and record breaks), absolute studs on the backend and a starting goaltender at the SHL level. The team consisted of future star SHLers such as: Steve Harrington, Ryuuji Minamino, Jack Klompus, Patric Twist, Mats Marner, Cale Amundsen, Elias Kierkegaard, Vaseline Podcalzone, Jonas Kahnwald, (Clean) Andrei Kostitsyn and many more. Now just imagine if that was your SHL team right now with all those players I am sure you would have a cup team right there. For the team that they would be in SHL history it would easily have to be the Tampa Bay Barracuda team that had a zero win and sixty six loss season which was the worst record ever in SHL history.

5. Written, 3 TPE, Secret Weapon (150 words min) It’s never too early to start thinking about how you’re going to gain a competitive edge next season! How is your team going to go the extra mile to get wins next season? Is it a secret training regimen? Sneaky equipment modifications? Booby trapping the visiting teams’ locker room? Anything goes.

Answer: Player engagement and motivation is one of the keys to success for any hockey team including the ones in the SHL. Motivated players train harder, work through difficulties and maintain their commitment. It’s a more enjoyable experience, for players and the team, to play with others who are engaged and motivated. Therefore I think improving player motivation is the way to go for the Chicago Syndicate to get a competitive edge for season sixty seven. The first thing will be to understand player enjoyment of playing and training hockey. Its important to analyze if it is enjoyable to train and play in the team. Overall a lack of enjoyment can actually reduce the motivation to succeed. Engaging payer discussion on sleep, nutrition, recovery and life outside hockey will also provide the proper motivation for a competitive edge. There is so much more to game-day performance than simply doing the drills. Sleep, nutrition, stress at work or from other relationships, and injuries are all major inputs to a player’s performance.

16. Written, 2 TPE, Top Line (100 words min.) Create the best line you can using real life or SHL hockey players from your player’s home country. Give me 3F, 2D and a G– and a short description of why you chose who you did!
Answer: Having played for team Latvia for all of Mats Maner’s SHL career, today we will be looking at creating the best line possible with other SHL players from team Latvia At left wing I would have to go with myself Mats Marner who was the leading goal scorer in the SHL this past season. At right wing I would have to go with Chimkin Wing who has been the Buffalo Stampede’s best player for a while now. At center I would have to go with Roderic Banes who has shown a lot of promise. On defense I would go with Chris Goodname and Nikolaj Boyle and in net Evert Jansson.

23. Written, 2 TPE, Dreams (100 words min.) Sticking with the “last prompt is just letting people write about themselves” idea, here we go! I’m curious to know what sort of things you hope for in the world! What are your dreams? Maybe that’s a dream job, a dream house, an opportunity for your kids. I don’t know! Whatever you want to write about. What do you hope for in the future?
Answer: I do not think one hundred words will be enough to properly describe my dream job, house or opportunity for my future kids so instead I am going to focus on what my dream house would look like. I am a big fan being by the water and swimming, kayaking, boating, having a morning tea on the dock or watching the sun set over the water. So I would want to have a waterfront property on a lake or river. I would also love to have a house with a big backyard where I could have a hot tub, mini sauna, nice patio for outdoor hangouts and barbecue set. The interior of the house would have a nice master bedroom with a jacuzzi bathtub and I would love a lot of natural lighting with hardwood floors and granite counter tops for the kitchen.

Take your SHL/SMJHL team’s name and enter it into an anagram generator (like this one: https://ingesanagram.com/) and generate a new team name! Choose one of the mixed-up results and tell me why it would be a fun choice for your franchise to rebrand to! Give me some jersey and logo ideas as well!

Everyone please help me welcome the newest SHL team to the league, the Powering Urania. Named after Urania, the greek goddess of astronomy. A name that is also a little wink to the rebranded Winnipeg Aurora team. Both teams that have used celestial imagery. Also it is a nod to all the stars that will play on the team. The team will play in jerseys inspired by the skies. Imagine blues, dark and light, whites and more, with small stars around the crest. The logo will be of Urania herself, modeled with her famous clestial globe and staff. The arena name will be named after this orb. The 'globe'. The name Powering will of course also suggests to the power of the players and the fans to overcome any small obstacle in their way. The team will remain in the city of Winnipeg, honouring a bit of the fallen team that came before it. Up the Urania!

18. Written, 2 TPE - The Procrastinator Special! (100 words min.)

Congratulations, procrastinator!  Through your terrible time management skills, you’ve unlocked a special task! [TEAM] has won it all! Were the playoffs as you expected this year, or were there some surprises? Did anything stand out to you about this season’s final series? Did the engine switch make a difference for you?

Just by the fact alone that both of the teams in the finals could win a cup for the first time in their history makes this one of the best finals in years. I love the Atlanta branding so seeing them win the cup is amazing. Besides that I do not think the playoffs were that spicy. Although Seattle going all teh way to the final is absolutely an amazing story and in turn actually makes this playoff quite something. I cannot remember my predictions and at all, but that does not matter, cuz we got an exciting final out of it, finally non of the old guard wins a cup.

Sticking with the “last prompt is just letting people write about themselves” idea, here we go! I’m curious to know what sort of things you hope for in the world! What are your dreams? Maybe that’s a dream job, a dream house, an opportunity for your kids. I don’t know! Whatever you want to write about. What do you hope for in the future?

All I can hope for currently is that I get a contract extention at my current work place. It is a cool place, with great coworkers and I enjoy my time there. In a currently shitty housing market, I hope to be able to find something and have a place for myself. Although it also gives me the opportunity to just save my money and work to buying a house quicker. Finally the last thing I really dream about, is being able to get my own cat when I get my own place. Already have a breed and name I want and I think it will be amazing once the time comes.

(8/16) - Task 18: 144 Words
I’m really impressed that Atlanta managed to win the whole thing. Not really, because the general managers did an amazing job building this team from top to bottom, but playoffs are an uphill fight every game for both teams. The ton of sweeps felt a bit surprising, as did the insane amount of goals in incredibly rapid bursts that probably stretches the definition of realism. What stood out was the luck that came from my friend Taylor watching. She doesn’t have a player in the SHL and probably never will, but we found out she was good luck for the team whenever she watched the game, with the team going undefeated in every single game. So shoutout Taylor who was delaying date nights and watching the cup finals at a Mets game just to try and help a team she doesn’t play for win.

(10/16) - Task 23: 103 Words
Being honest, I don’t know what I’m trying to do with my life right now. Probably going back to school because currently I’m stuck in a dead end government job without room for advancement, but other than that I’m just going with the flow. I just hope in the future that I’m truly happy wherever I wind up. I know that’s easier said than done but that’s something I strive to achieve. I just entered into another relationship and while it’s long distance at the moment with her away at college, it feels nice to kind of matter to someone else, ya know?

(13/16) - Task 20: 167 Words
After one too many Evgeni Petrov caused lawsuits, the Atlanta Inferno now have to rebrand. Coming soon the SHL near you, the Afton Alien Rant! We’re trading in beautiful southern city and heading west to considerably less sunny Afton, Wyoming. Wyoming is known for their large hockey fanbase, and the population of Afton comes in at a staggering 2041 people meaning that our games will be sellouts since no one else has anything to do. The team name was inspired by the crazy local homeless person, Pujet Pujet, who spent at least 14 minutes ranting to Evgeni Petrov about the existence of aliens in the universe. Evgeni took this knowledge and refused to leave the GM’s office until the team name acknowledged aliens. A benefit of this branding is now that Tom DeLonge plays the national anthem at every home game for free, and offered to model for the team logo which is an alien on a box in the park screaming about his theories on religion.

(16/16) - Task 6: 171 Words
The newest curse in the SHL is the Curse of Evgeni Petrov. Anyone who manages to beat Evgeni Petrov in either an elk hunting contest or for goalie of the year will be cursed with a lifetime of tiny hands and every time you sneeze a man will come up behind you and seductively whisper “Bazinga” in your ear. The tiny hands part will be more manageable for the curse, I’m pretty sure you could get inserts into them so that your tiny hands would adapt. The worst part about the curse will be the “Bazinga.” People sneeze on average up to 450 times a year, more if you have allergies or you get a cold, just imagine the sheer number of “Bazingas” in a year, it would drive you insane. The only way to remove yourself from the curse is to either beat Evgeni in an elk hunting contest or to lose to him in goalie of the year, only then will your hands regrow and will the “Bazingas” stop.

SWEDEN. With the playoffs finishing up soon, we are excited to have the team back together for another IIHF run. The last couple of seasons have not gone the way we wanted, and we look to change that this year. Last season, the Tre Kronor fielded a roster full of promising up-and-coming talent, led by veteran Swedish mainstays. With the competition continuing to become fiercer each season, last season’s roster did not achieve what they set out to do, which was to finish on that podium. With another season under our belt, the youth movement in full swing, alongside the steady veteran presence, the Tre Kronor hope for better results this season. The infusion of young talent has provided a spark for the King Carl faithful, and we hope to shock a lot of people during this tournament. Last season's results were unacceptable for King Carl and the Swedish National Team; we are hungry to right the wrongs of last season and once again aim for a medal finish. It is Sweden’s time to show that they are a force to be reckoned with & we hope this tournament is the start of something special
