2. Written, up to 4 TPE - Shiny Grab Bag: Pick up to 4 topics related to the All Star Game to write about! Each topic is worth 1 TPE. Each answer must be 50+ words.
a. Two teams, Edmonton and Los Angeles, tie with five total nods each. Both of those teams are in the West. Playoff rivalry aside, do you think it's to the West's advantage or disadvantage to have a relatively large number of players from the same two teams? Does it make the all-star game better or worse when this happens?

I think it makes the allstar game better when this happens, it showcases those team's abilities to construct a strong roster and regardless of what team they play for I believe the best players should play in the all-star game and not be limited based off of how many are from each team. Besides, when I make the SHL and Seattle is on the come up and we have a team full of all-stars I won't want to have it changed. (124 Words 1 TPE)

d. Why should YOUR player have made the all star game, and why should you be the last man in? (If your player did make the all star game, argue for one of your teammates instead!)

I think Squidwardo should have made the all star game based purely off of vibes. No stats or advanced stats should be looked at, not even post count or any in depth counting stats. With the all-star game being held in the Yukon, why not let SMJHL Yukon Malamute Squidwardo Tentacles onto the ice to show these "SHL All Stars" how it is done? Even if not participating in the all star game, maybe Squidwardo will come out for the skills competition. (114 words) 1 TPE

How much of a correlation do you think there is between TPE and an all-star nod? Should there be more, or less, than there is?
I think that TPE definitely matters for an all-star nod. When it comes down to it, higher TPE means a higher rated player with higher stats. Depending on how Franchise Hockey Manager simulates the player, it can cause some players to outperform their TPE which can earn themselves an allstar nod. I don't agree that having high TPE should automatically earn you an all-star nod, as you could make a build with 20 fighting, aggression and bravery and be the best 4th line grinder of all time but that doesn't make you an all-star. The current format allows players that put up great stats and aren't max TPE to earn a spot in the lineup which I personally prefer. I do think the all-star game should move away from having a player from every team and move towards each team being created with the strongest players in the league so it is more of a best on best game.
