TASK 02: (Graphic, 3 TPE)
The leagues running an auction where all proceeds will go to the education departments of both teams in the challenge cup finals! create a graphic of a player in the challenge cup series holding up an SHL related item for bidding. Graphic should include a pic of that player, his name, his team logo, the item hes showing off for bidding and wording about what we are seeing in the graphic. (*tag that player) @Zoone13




Task 05: (Written, up to 6 TPE)
Pick up to 6 challenge cup related topics to write about! Each topic is worth '1' TPE. Each answer must be '50' words or more.

1. Breakdown this finals matchup for us, how will it play out? who will be the stars of this series, what will the outcome be? (*tag anyone involved)
2. A major managerial showdown is about to take place Between WKP's (Jr95, Wongy) and Calgarys (Steelhead77, C00kies) which set of GM's have the tactical/managerial advantage in this series and why?

Well we have a group of respected individuals who can bring a group together. Steelhead has been around forever and C00kies hands out the BEST cookies. Mind you JR is the simmer so he could just rig this whole thing up. Personally both teams should be in for a battle.

3. Which player in the finals should considered their teams playoff MVP and which should be considered their teams unsung hero thus far and why?
4. Which player do you believe will be the differance maker in their franchise winning the title here in S47?

Honestly if Bojo can pull off some veteran form he could force the L on Calgary. Mind you Izzy could take a whole game over and drive the Dragons to a win over West Kendall. It all comes down to how the teams are built.

5. After trading off there best players and declaring themselves in a full rebuild back in S45, The Calgary Dragons have made it to the S47 finals.. just 2 seasons later.  Choose: ('No surprise', 'mild surprise', 'major surprise' or 'in shock') and explain why.

They don't call the Calgary Dragons the most successful SHL Franchise for nothing, these boys have built the group up consistently and its no wonder that they are here.

6. Which young players in this series (S42-S47) have a chance to break out and make a name for themselves here in the Challenge Cup Finals? (*Tag that player)
7. The West Kendall Platoon are back in the finals after a season out of the playoffs and a team that was in serious regression Choose: ('No surprise', 'mild surprise', 'major surprise' or 'in shock') and explain why.

Renaissance seasons from almost everyone as well as the fact that they picked up some notable trades. While not shocking it is rather surprising to see it all happen at once.

8. Star netminders Kata Vilde and Beaujeaux Biscuit have both carried there teams into the finals. Which franchise goalie has a better chance to carry their franchise to a title?

Honestly both have been here before and there is no reason why they cant do it again. Bojo is an old, veteran goalie who has done almost everything and knows what it takes. Vilde is cool as a cucumber and, while younger, doesn't lack a whole lot in experience.




TASK 08: (Graphic, 3 TPE)
The WWF (World Wildlife Foundation) and the SHL are working together as the cover of thier June magazine will boast an SHL player in the finals along side an animal.. and your job is to create the cover!  On a Magazine cover, should include the WWF logo, a title of front page, an SHL players render, his name and team logo, plus an animal of your choice next to him. @Coach Biz




Task 09: (Written, 3 TPE)
Which organization that didnt make it to the finals would you consider to be the biggest disappointment? What do you think are the main reasons why they fell short this season? (Must be 150 words or more)

Honestly the New Orleans Specters. This isn't even just a homer pick, this team repreated as Southwest Divison champion and, after getting to within one win of the Challenge Cup, managed to improve on their regular season. 3 HUGE names saw improvement. Oisin Fletcher Broke 40 points after finishing S46 with 39 by nabbing 45, Piotr Czerkawski went from 38 in S46 to 58! in S47 MASSIVE improvement. Finally we get to arguably the MVP of S47, DeMaricus Smyth. DM Smyth lit up the league for 62 points, league leading. He was second on the team in S46 with 44. Add to that, Richard Physt lead all defenceman with 32 points again, matching his total in S46. Everything seemed in place, and then they couldn't get the job done against the Renes.
