Task 1. (154 words)
With Jack Kennedy's rookie season in the books, we can look back at the year's ups and downs. Playing top-six minutes the brand new Chicago Syndicate, Jack Kennedy put up twelve goals and six assists for eight-teen points. He also went plus-one, and fired one hundred and twenty-nine shots for a 9.3 shooting percentage. While not impressive numbers on the surface, the kid showed signs of promise and flashes of brilliance. If you were to ask him, Kennedy would tell you he was not happy with his numbers, but looks forward to building on the totals next season. Kennedy would also quickly change the subject to that of the team's success, which takes priority. He's very disappointed about watching the playoffs from side lines, but is itching for the International Ice Hockey Federation Championships to get going very soon here. So, one goal he could still check off his list is gold for Canada.

Task 7. (157 words)
Being left in charge of such an important event, with the causes going to such a great charity is no small task. With so much riding on the line, and not to mention the Commissioner counting on me I had to come up with a perfect plan. Here goes nothing. First, we will have a silent auction with donated memorabilia and autographed jerseys. We will invite big name players from the eliminated teams in hopes that they will attend and lend their star power. There will be a dinner service. Per plate donations will be taken. For the kids we will have cotton candy and hot dogs to eat. To keep them busy, a hockey net set up with targets for accuracy and radar for slap shots. Weather permitting, I hope players will volunteer to sit in a dunk tank. For the adults, Molson has lent their service and products with Molson fridges set up everywhere.

Task 11. (152 words)
Jack Kennedy has won a championship with the Vancouver Whalers in the SMJHL, so he knows what it feels like to win it all. "There's no better feeling; it's the culmination of a year of hard work with all your brothers. In short: it's why we play." Due to playing for a young expansion franchise, the Chicago Syndicate, there is not as much internal competition to make the squad as there is in some of the more established squads. Jack Kennedy still does not take anything for granted. He will work hard at the worlds and in the off season as though he was a bubble player trying to make the team. Jack Kennedy's goal is to build on his rookie campaign. He intends to put up many more points: "at least twice as many goals and assists compared to last year", and he "wants to get that shooting percentage up too".
