Trailer opens on a dark bedroom with sunrise lightning starting to peak through the curtains. Don’t think too hard about this but the morning alarm goes off on a phone. The tune is Carly Rae Jepsen’s “Emotion”. Waking up, the main character checks their phone to see a notification. “SHL Playoff Resim: Games 1,2”. They curse and a montage of them venting to teammates and posting Thunderdome material plays. They then begin to go about their day as they normally do, with certain innocuous interactions highlighted.
Sim time rolls around and sadly their team does far worse than before, dropping both games instead of winning them. More venting, tears and rage. Its already late when the character goes to bed. Morning starts to shine through those same shutters once again. The alarm on the phone goes off, the same song once again. The character checks their phone . . . . “SHL Playoff Resim: Games 1,2” . . ? Again? Now what in the hell is it this time? But no one else seems to remember the resim from last night, they think this is the first resim. Despite the painful memories of the other day, the main character goes about their day. Suspiciously, the same innocuous events happen in the same order. The cycle repeats. Resim Games 1,2. Carly Rae Jepson. Forever.

Grzegorz stays focused through the entire game by letting the world fade away. He barely registers the crowd noise. All he does is follow the puck and sit on it when it approaches him. Unfortunately this has not worked out well this season, as he's fallen off a cliff relative to his dominant performance last season. Maybe he needs a different approach: hyper awareness of the whole building, using the crowd itself to help him follow the puck. Instead of lazer-focus for sixty minutes, which seems to be getting more difficult as he ages, Grzegorz may need to adopt a more passive approach and let the game come to him. If he does, it'll look more like following the other team's eyes as much as the puck. Whether that works or not remains to be seen. Last season, attacking the game and attacking the puck, seeing nothing else, carried him to a McBride and a Razov. This season, he's been a disaster, a weight his team has carried and won despite him. That's almost worse than losing. Almost.

Option 1:
Ima Noobie decided to use the idea of the Newfoundland Dog as a main character in a horror movie but, instead of it being the villain like in Cujo, this Newfoundland Dog will be the hero of this horror movie. The movie could be an off brand of The Purge where the family is trapped inside and the bad guys are outside trying to get in, but they don't know about Berserker, the family's 60 KG Newfoundland Dog who is very resilient in his duty to protect the family. Berserker will be played by Berserker, the Newfoundland Berserker's team mascot (see Peron's Best Friend PT task for more information.) Other Newfoundland Berserkers appearing are Hannah Crowder, Katharina Rosenthal and Hamper Linthome. The title role of the family patriarch will go to Jim Carrey. This was a specific request by Ima Noobie as he is trying to soothe the tension between himself and Roisin Armagh following some contentious comments he made about Jim Carrey movies.

Written Option 1: For Halloween promotion your teams PR department wants a short horror movie to reach new audiences and as that is about as much work as they feel like doing for it they have your player figuring out the small details like casting and plot. So what kind of movie it will be? Is it going to have a monster and if it does what will it be and who is going to play that role? Or maybe bit more psychological horror? Reliving a game seven loss from the past or is it going to involve hockey at all? What kind of movie your player would create and what role they would play in it?
Tampa Bay owners have been polling around the arena as they are planning on pitching a movie to one of the major studios for future development. They have made it clear they want to do something kind of cerebral but with an Inception type of story with warped reality. They are looking to shoot some test footage for the presentation and what better actors than their own hockey team. Some guys have been a bit leery about being in front of the camera so a sign up sheet is being posted outside the locker room for different positions that people can sign up for including directing, cinematography, camera operators, lighting, audio, etc. I think most people are down for a position so there is good buy in. However no one has actually signed up to act yet so there is a possibility that this never gets off the ground. But maybe we can just play with all the fun toys and see what comes out of it, (167 words)

Option 1:
If my team, the New England Wolfpack, made a horror movie, this would be a great thing. First, you have @luke 's face that would scare anybody out there. I'm talking of griddy of course. he could simply wear the costume and run around. The movie would be a slasher and he'd be a killer. @HillsHaveHats would die first, of course. he would be eating his peanut butter sandwish, alone in the locker room, when Luke (griddy) would arrive and eat him. the hero in the story would be NEW's mascot, a real wolf. This wolf, trained by none other than @Count Chocula wouldn't be scared to attack the mean spirited Luke. Because of this shameful act, @JR95 would not forgive Luke and sell the team to a new owner. This is the scariest part of the film. A viewing of the movie will be available in the locker room after the Wolpack win the cup at the end of the season.

Rence Sykut has always known that goalies are fragile little flowers and must be coddled at all times to maintain their tenuous mental frame of mind. Therefore, Rence does not even talk to the goalies on game days, practice days, or off days to insure that nothing he says can rattle around in their crazy minds while they are watching the play for the majority of the game. During warm ups he is sure to make sure to make it look like he is trying hard to score on his goalie, but always deliberately hits them square in the pads before skating by and telling them that he thought he almost had them beat on that one. After games, he only approaches them to give them an approving nod in victory or defeat to let them know that it is never their fault and the skaters must play better in front of them regardless of the result.

Ok, so for this we go a little different and we make kind of a sentimental psychological thriller comedy. And the brilliant idea is to make a Blair Witch style "documentary" of a remake of what some consider the greatest hockey movie of all time, Slapshot. The psychological/thriller part is that they are just doing such a poor job of it, they have moved it to a roller hockey rink and all of the old original actors are coming back to haunt or sabotage the making of the movie. Especially the three main brother leads. Yes, the 70 year old "Hanson" Brothers come back to wreak bloody murder and make everyone think they are slowly going insane. They get a 3D projection of Paul Neuman and and an actor that is his twin to pop up everywhere and shot and curse about what are they doing to him, they are just dumb to make this movie it will never work and they will be out $1 million dollars. That's all I got and management were really really not happy and said they would do all the work from now on.

Option 1:
Imagine you finish brushing your teeth, plug your phone in and crawl under the covers. Or, whatever your bedtime routine is. You lay your head down and drift off to sleep. You wake up and the air smells musty and something feels about your room. You walk outside and find yourself in what looks like an old west frontier town. Panicked, you head into the saloon to get some information. There's a creepy old timer in the dark corner on your right who says "you should get far away from this place." as he downs whisky out of a dirty glass. Thinking this must be a dream, you rush back to your room and hop under the covers. You fall asleep and when you wake up, it is dark outside. It sounds eerily quiet and you decide to head outside and see if anyone is around. The old man from before is laying on the boardwalk with blood pooling around him. "I told you to flee, you fool." he gasps out with his final breath. The townsfolk start surrounding you, their teeth grow sharp and their eyes glow orange. You can't do anything but scream and wait for the end... Spooky Movie by Dangles

Option 2
I think every goalie is different so you need to figure out how your goalie like to interact with the players during the game. My brother and my goalie in St Louis are different. Murray is more of a outspoken person and he doesn't hesitate to talk between the period and even during the game is on. That keep us always in the game as he have a different point of view of the game so he can help us getting the puck and look at a player we didn't see. During the warm up I try to good on his glove side the most and always in the middle (high wise) so I won't shot him in the mask and he will not have to make the butterfly to make the save. The warm up is only to get ready for the game with getting your muscle and reflexes ready for the actual game so you need to prepare for it.

Option 2:
There's nothing better than some lighthearted, respectful and mutual banter to keep everyone on their toes and to enable some positive growth, both in terms of performance and in terms of team bonding. With that in mind, Derek Martin's captaincy style has always been veered towards lifting people up, but to also keep things light whenever its needed. Its no surprise that the polish superstar that's been defending the net of the Los Angeles Panthers, Grzegorz Brzęczyszczykiewicz, has been having a bit of a down year by his standards. In an attempt to take his head out of the gutter and to make sure spirits remain high, Derek laughs at his sieve-like abilities, that he does a better job letting things through than a Starfrit pasta strainer, but that he also has the ability to shut everything down, which he's proven many times with multiple goalie awards over his already illustrous career. In return, Derek gets rightly called a bum or a frenchie, which is always fair game until he gets a few goals to lift the team. Lead by example, both in how you give banter, and how you receive it!

SHL GM Beat Nash to 2k
Its no easy task to be a goalie but Cale would argue its just as bad playing infront of one! Have you met goalies they are straight up crazy! Look no further then the Forge’s recently 400 win club goalie @slothfacekilla Base Pack who has endured multiple highs and lows what seems like every season! The hardest part is keeping this guy focused. Cale has found what works best to keep him dialed in is to talk about his always growing card collection of SHL players! Tempting the goalie with some of his rarest cards if he performs well in the net on any given night! Of course in warmups Cale ensures he puts one off the mask with his first shot on Pack to wake him up and make sure he knows where he is. After that the follow up is a shot straight at his manhood to ensure he is ready for anything that is going to be thrown at him. Of course this doesn’t always work but it doesn’t make it any less fun!

SHL GM Jabbin' his Jelly Bean
If there's one thing we know about goalies is that they are totally voodoo and completely unpredictable. My job as a skater isn't to go out of my way to try and guess what my goalie needs, but rather to just follow his orders as they come out and otherwise stay out of his way as much as possible. Thankfully in New England, Sieve isn't a very demanding goalie to work with. If anything, his biggest demand is for snacks, and he could demand them at any time of day, even during games. He wants a banana? You bet I'll be the first to bring him one during a stopage in play. Needs some cheese-its? Cormier's on the job. It got so bad that Cormier even started keeping a secret stash of all of Sieve's favourites on the bench so they are ready at a moments notice. The one day Cormier forgot snacks, Sieve let in 10 goals against Montreal. You can bet thats the last time that happened.

Written Option 1:
I think Langston would want a movie that was more of a comedy like Scary Movie with riffs on Friday the 13th and And Then There Were None as a theme. The location will be at a hockey camp in the summer and the kids have all gone and now it is up to the counselors to lock up the area. Of course they are haunted by the killer of hockey’s past (of course wearing the old school hockey mask). Some of the key characters will be former players so they look like they know what they are doing and it will be like a who dun it? With all of the players falling under suspicion, but no one actually dying due to the killer’s incompetence, bad luck or the need to keep it PG 13, the killer is slowly drawn out into the open and caught in a net: a hockey net! Fitting for a killer wearing a goalie mask. Shoutout TheOPSquid for the Sig
