Betrayed, that is the end result. Gary Bettmouse has sold out the great sport of hockey and made it into a fast cash sponsorship for an intergalactic league. On one hand, that is amazing; personally, I can’t wait to see what the competition will be like. On the other hand, how dare he sully one of the few sports left out there that has not become a walking billboard with team jerseys.
Clearly this evil master mind must be stopped and luckily for myself there is a resistance to his evil ways. You see this is not the first sport Bettmouse has shanghaied into become a money grab, NASCAR, Football, and many others have fallen victim to his shrewd ways. Luckily after previous failed attempts to get out of it the heads of each league have formed a fail safe plan to rid the mice and their terrible plans. Step one, hold a ceremony to commemorate the momentous event, it will be broadcast with exclusive PPV to those who wish to see. This is a sure fire way to get the entire mouse population to watch the event, they are the only ones who would buy a PPV for a ceremony to celebrate the start up of a league. Step two, have a few speeches by Bettmouse and his entire entourage ensuring they are all in the building, with family and connections within the league head office to ensure we are “starting off the new partnership right.” Step three, have surprise guests of 10 Vogons recite poetry as one is enough to cause permanent brain damage, but 10 would cause all to hear it to instantly paralyze and eventually kill all those who would hear it. Thus killing off the entire money grubbing mouse race. With no more mouses to worry about we will file an injunction Federation Intellectual Properties Commission telling them the ownership of hockey and all its properties are now null and void as the ownership committee and all connecting members no longer are living. With no ownership available it will go to the fair and honest space law of first come first serve and we will once again be the owners of Hockey and all decisions for the entire galaxy. Ensuring once again hockey can be enjoyed without terrible sponsorship coming into play. ![]() Sig by Lazyeye

The fact that you've suggested that there could be combat says everything I need to know about this scenario. Wisconsin is a trained soldier and if the SHL wants to send her on a mission, she'll do it. Those mice won't know what hit em. That Hairy Bettmouse guy isn't gonna last long. Like, seriously, this is finally something that is absolutely and completely within Wisconsin's character in this series. She will go full Rambo on all of them. There will be no mouse spared, unless they agree to allowing the SHL to continue operating as it had. Of course, this would probably all need to be heavily covered up and Wisconsin might not even be allowed to play again just for the sake of protecting Earth from retaliation. But, she will have done her job and served her purpose as a soldier, which is all that she'd ever wanted to do.

The New Orleans Specters scraped their way into the playoffs with a final week push by playing slightly better than other bad teams. This means we will CRUSH those Winnipeg losers. They had it easy all season, and are known playoff choke artists. Why wouldn't they choke again this season to a sub .500 team? The best way we can get that to happen is to play our game, short shifts, work hard in the corners, finish our checks, and hope their bus crashes on the way to the stadium. Truth is bears are scared of ghosts. Specters are like advanced ghosts, so that will give us the psychological advantage as well. Plus we can just go around doing the choke symbol on our necks to really get under their skin. Maybe we can reroute their plane so they don't arrive to the game until the 2nd period and we are up 37-0. I just don't see how we can lose this is we just play about 300% better than we played all season. You are going down, loser bears!

Written Task: If your team made the playoffs, write 150+ words explaining why and how you're about to demolish your opposition. If your team made the playoffs and is eliminated in the first round before you complete this task, write it as if playoffs had not yet began and your outcome were still possible. If your team did not make the playoffs, describe how your team got screwed out of a playoff spot: by scheduling, by the league, by the hockey gods/FHM, or by me personally - list not inclusive. Be as conspiratorial and paranoid as possible. If your team was actively tanking, or you'd just prefer this option, write about how your team got screwed out of the best lottery odds.
The tale of how the Calgary Dragons got robbed of a playoff spot is a saga of dark conspiracies and malicious manipulation that redefines the term "unfair." The sinister forces at play seem almost too coordinated to be mere coincidences. First, let's talk about scheduling. The Dragons were handed a schedule so treacherous that it seemed concocted by a team of sadistic mathematicians. Back-to-back games against the top-ranked teams? Check. Weeks of grueling away games while rivals enjoyed the comfort of home ice? Double-check. It's almost as if the schedule was tailored to push them out of contention. Then there's the league, seemingly conspiring against them. Every call, every replay review, all seemingly against the Dragons. It's as if referees were handpicked to don the stripes just to foil their every move. Their star player's goal disallowed due to a mysterious "high-stick" that only the officials seemed to see? Clearly, an orchestrated plot. Let's not forget the hockey gods (or the mystical "FHM" for that matter). Puck luck? More like puck curse. Opponent shots ricocheting off the crossbar, post, and then finding the net? It's almost supernatural. No other team could possibly have this level of cosmic misfortune without some paranormal meddling. Lastly, let's entertain the notion that even you, dear fan, played a part. The moment you put on that lucky jersey, everything seemed to crumble. Surely, your support was tainted, sending negative vibes into the universe. In this twisted narrative, the Dragons' playoff spot was stolen by a cabal of scheduling masterminds, league saboteurs, vengeful hockey gods, and even your well-meaning yet jinxed fandom. It's a tale so bewildering, so tangled in dark forces, that it's hard to believe it isn't just a figment of a paranoid imagination.

Well we made the playoffs, and are facing off against our rival and my past team - chicago. Chicago was a dominant team this season, however we were one of the few teams to have success against them this season. With round 1 already in the books, we sadly know our future already. Game one started off bad with our back up starting the game leading to a loss. We would then proceed to lose the next 2 games going down 3-0 in the series. Fortunately for us we were able to win game 4 to avoid the sweep. However that was just the start of our momentum as we would go on to win game 5. Spirits were high as we headed back to Texas for game 6, which who would have guessed, we won again! The series is 3-3 heading back to chicago. Unfortunately game 7 would not go our way and we could not overcome home ice advantage. Hopefully next year will be our year. 170+ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() SMJHL GM just how deep do you believe? will you bite the hand that feeds?
The Seattle Argonauts have proven time and time again to never bet against them. The Argos went into the season under the guise of not being the top dogs in the west, and nevertheless still pulled through by securing a big playoff berth.
This is a team that has seasoned veterans on the roster. Players who have played through many seasons of playoff hockey and understand how to deal with the added on pressure as well as the added wear and tear of playing extra hockey beyond the usual 66 games of the SHL regular season. The playoffs aren't anything new to them, so this makes it all the more clear why the Argos will not look out of place in the playoff hunt. Despite regressing a bit in the regular season, Vaseline Podcalzone is still a player who has consistently been a reliable force in the playoffs. This year, can Podz continue to build upon his outstanding career in the postseason and help the Argos out? It wouldn't hurt to not bet against it. ![]() ![]() ![]() Registered S23, S45 Challenge Cup Champion
Is there really any question that this is going to be the Vancouver Whalers year? We've drafted better than any team in the league and boy is this team stacked. We've got some of the best names in the SMJHL, like Thomas Liebold and Inactive Forever. We've got Wednesday Adams and Johnny FourStar. Our backline is built with Bob Wehadababyitsaboy and CRASH Conrad. What more could you ask for? There isn't a team that can stand in our way, heck, I don't think we've lost two in a row all season. We've all been working super hard, training every week and encouraging each other to do our very best. We're in the right head space. We've got a killer coach. And we're hungry. Hungry for the win. Hungry for the chip. Hungry to finally take our rightful place at the top of the league.

Alright so the strategy here is real simple. See i spent 3 seasons on QCC before being traded to Maine for my final season in juniors. I know what makes them tick and now we have to go head to head in round 2 of the playoffs. The answer, is cute pictures. I love qcc to death but you show them a cat, dog, baby, guinea pig, tarantula, and they will be googoo gagaing over it for hours. We have home ice advantage, so we can guarantee that for 4 games pictures of cute shit will be taped inside the boards at the players bench so they're forced to see it all game long. Time fir a line change? Well too bad, this dog is cute af, do another shift would ya? Eventually the team is either too infatuated or t7red to play and we will fill their net mercilessly. Even if we dont win the other games in the series, there's enough home games that we can guarantee a series win with this strategy.
