Slowpoke has no idea how to use a computer or cell phone. When he hears other players, media, and fans talk about social media he assumes these are some forms of book clubs or groups that just gossip. He has no interest in learning how to use social media either which overall helps him a ton. Slowpoke’s playstyle and athleticism (or lack of) makes for some great memes on the internet when he makes and/or misses a play so its probably better for Slowpoke’s mental that he doesn’t have to see replays of what he’s done on the ice on a daily basis. While some of those memes and super fans can be endearing its probably overall a positive. If Slowpoke did have social media he’d probably quite enjoy getting to interact with the local community of fans in one way or the other but probably wouldn’t engage with fans outside of the Buffalo area.

Rasmus is the definition of a recluse when it comes to social media. He really doesn't use it for looking at much, because he's found it to be incredibly unhelpful when looking for constructive criticism about his game. He'll put up a real stinker, and there'll be fans telling him to just retire already - when they should know that that isn't even an option because he's got some more paycheques to collect before his full pension vests. On top of that, some of the comments are downright rotten so it's bad from a morale to be checking that stuff. Instead, he's hired a guy to start a burner account and bully anyone who says anything remotely mean about his play on the ice. This keeps him isolated in his little bubble of silence, while also ensuring that the trolls are gettting their just desserts if they think that their tweets (however might they may be) can go unchecked. He also makes sure anything nice gets passed along because who doesn't love a good ego boost now and then?

Billy Herrington doesn’t shy away from social media, but he approaches it with a sense of humor and keeps things pretty lighthearted. He knows that fans and analysts are always going to have opinions—good, bad, and everything in between—and he’s developed a thick skin over the years. He’ll scroll through his mentions occasionally, especially after a big game, just to see what fans are saying, and it’s mostly positive. The Atlanta Inferno fans appreciate his gritty playstyle and knack for putting up big numbers when it counts. Every once in a while, though, there’ll be a critical comment or a joke at his expense, and he’s not above tossing a playful response back or liking the post to keep things fun. Billy’s not one to start conversations just for the attention, but he does enjoy engaging with the hockey community, and he’ll jump into discussions if it’s something interesting. He’s been known to crack a joke or share a quick meme, often poking fun at himself or at the classic hockey stereotypes. Fans and teammates know him as someone who doesn’t take himself too seriously online, which adds to his laid-back reputation. For Billy, social media is just another way to connect with fans and show his personality. It’s not about getting likes or going viral; he just enjoys the chance to be part of the conversation and keep fans involved in his journey on and off the ice.

Code: Written Option 1: Hockey is ultimate teamsport and who you are on ice with often can be more impactful than your own skill to the end results. So who are your players linemates, defensive pair or other half of the goalie tandem? Have they been playing together for long and reached very high chemistry or are they still building towards that? Do they help out each other during the practice? Do they spend time with each other outside of the rink or is it strictly professional relationship?When the Season 71 draft happened, three players were selected in the Top 5 by the San Francisco Pride : Levin Schattenaxt, Dominik Winters, and Logan Webb. When all three of them graduated from the SMJHL, coach Caleb Hayden saw fit to reunite them on one "kid" line, with Winters playing center, Webb playing on the right, and Schattenaxt playing on the left. In the past 6 seasons, only on very few occasions has this line been dismantled, and the results speak for themselves - not only was Winters a revelation in the Season 76 post-season that saw the Pride win its first ever Challenge Cup, but him and Webb have been fantasy darlings for the better part of three seasons. The only one that doesn't get as much press is, bizarely, the one that was selected first overall, Levin Schattenaxt. However, for Levin, this couldn't be more of an ideal situation. As he's very reserved by nature and likes to stay away from the spotlight as much as possible, his work as the two-way dynamo on the "top" line (in all honesty, the unit formed by Scholz-Hargreeves-Baylé could be considered the top unit for over half the teams in the league) is the kind of work he relishes, as it showcases what he loves about hockey - playing a 200-feet game, using your stick well both defensively and offensively, and taking the opponents aback with a quick transition pass, a play which he knows his two draft and line mates will finish off more often than not. After 9 seasons of working together, and 6 of playing together, it's almost as though they can read one another's minds. (287 words)

Written Option 2:
Slip McScruff has hopped on the Simulation Bluesky train with all the new fangled algorithm tools. He has one pinned feed which covers all mentions of him with positive sentiments, then has one moderation list which hides all mentions of him with negative connotations. Weirdly, the feel good feed only has 3 posts and 2 of them are tests from when he was trying to get the filter working. The third one is even weirder because he didn't know his mom had an account. The moderation list is actually super popular, but mainly because people just don't want any mention of Slip McScruff in their feed at all. Some times, he likes to make fake accounts and try to argue with people who say he sucks. Unfortunately, he sounds really dumb because the facts are not on his side and he just gets nuclear blocked as a troll account. At least when he needs the cash he can engagement farm on Twitter where people will go out of their way to dunk on his posts. ![[Image: scrufdaddy2.gif]](https://sig.grumpybumpers.com/host/scrufdaddy2.gif) credit to Flappy, ToeDragon, and Carpy

2. Normally for Cade de Vries, he doesn't follow the social media scene much for a professional player, even though he does have a large social media following. This is more due to de Vries having content that is more geared to behind the scenes and training videos, also with day in the life videos. With this content, he isn't inflammatory, at least towards hockey and other players in the SHL, SJMHL, WJC or IIHF. Normally he doesn't check or interact with social media that is about the game or his performance, given that it can normally lead to him getting to energetic and leading to him doing something "agressive" whether it is good or bad social media reaction. If he does do anything on social media outside his own little bubble, it is probably liking the very cute pet videos, or liking the very violent knockouts and subs in the UFC and boxing, which is confusing to many that see de Vries as either only the simple loving animal man or the extremelly violent fighter
