TASK ONE: If not, How has your player kicked off their offseason? Are they traveling? Meeting up with friends and partying? Following the games? Write at least 150 words about the beginning of your playerâ€™s offseason. Must include at least one other player.

This was the first season that Brett Kennedy knew that his season wasn't going to extend to the playoffs. Out of his 4 seasons, he might only have 2 playoff appearances, but the third season was a grind to just miss out. Nonetheless, Kennedy planned in advance that he would have extended hangouts with fellow teammate Louie Garrett. Considering that he was a pending free agent, Kennedy wanted to spend as much time with Garrett as possible, because there was no assurance that Garrett was going to stay with the Riot. The two enjoyed a nice round of golf out in Scottsdale, then went and watched some basketball games, wondering why there still isn't a professional basketball team in Seattle. Kennedy never tried to convince Garrett to stay with the Riot, because he knew that at the end of the day, it was Louie's decision to make.

TASK TWO: Who is your choice for the unsung hero of the S39 playoffs up to this point? Must be at least 150 words and include at least two statistics in support.

A lot of people give the man a little bit of shit because of his personal opinions on certain things and just how he's a general goon in the league, but if anyone has stepped up in the playoffs for the Panthers on this road to the Finals, it's Danny Foster. Working with stats that are outdated, and still recorded after Game 4 of the West Finals, Foster was at a point-per-game pace, with eight assists, a surprising goal, and a team-leading 36 hits. With guys like Herzog, Leetch, and Turska having general struggles with their own personal stats, having Foster lead the way on the defensive side has been extremely beneficial for the Panthers, and was a main contributor to the success this season in Los Angeles. There will always be people that pick a certain person, and it seems to be Olli O'Koivu. To me, it's not a shock in the slightest, considering that the Chiefs were one win shy of the Finals just last season. I believe Foster to have made a bigger impact for his team in a more surprising manner than O'Koivu.

TASK SIX: Finals series always show surprises. Who will have to stand out the most from each team in order to win it? Make a prediction for potential series MVPs. Must be at least 150 words and mention at least one player from each team.

Personally, this is asking two completely different questions. Having to tell who needs to stand out doesn't particularly need to be the series MVP, or the Playoff MVP for that matter. Someone who I think needs to step up and stand out in the series is someone by the name of Matthew Auston. Auston was a perrenial leader for the Scarecrows back in his junior years, and he led the team in points twice in two seasons. Then, when he was called up to Los Angeles, he somehow became 'just another guy'. In the playoffs this season, he's been nothing short of ordinary. Only two points in the first 8 games of the playoffs has been very disappointing for a player I know can get hot and stay hot for a long stretch of time. 29 points this season had him getting ready for big things to come, but if he wants to step up and perform, he can't be shooting at a 3.85% click that he's been on. Please, Matthew. Show us that Scarecrow Matthew Auston, the guy who can get 4 and 5 point games when it matters. The Panthers need you!
