Task 01:

I was on a trip home to Charlottetown, PE when I caught a news story on my social media feed about my return. Apparently there were some local fans who had organized a group to welcome me at the bridge, and they filled me in on what would be going on when I got to town. It was a really wonderful surprise, because I had no idea anyone would take notice of me travelling. Always humbling to meet fans, and especially in small towns around where you grew up. I got some free ice cream at Cow’s, a free night of pool at Dooly’s, and a few tee times at a few different courses around the island for my stay. Totally amazing to be treated like such a star in your hometown, and I felt truly blessed to get to experience that; it made an otherwise tough end to the season a lot better.

Task 09:

Well for me obviously the biggest disappoint was seeing the Pride lose in the wild card round vs Texas. The excitement of making the postseason for the first time in almost ten seasons was cut short by the speedy exit from the playoffs. San Francisco was sorely lacking offensive depth, and the run and gun style of the Renegades was just too much for the Pride forwards to match. An all-star calibre defense couldn’t stop the Renes from running over the Pride, but if there had been just a little more goal support, perhaps things could have gone differently for SFP. Playoff experience was also a key absence from the resume of the majority of the Pride’s roster, so maybe if it hadn’t been their first trip to the postseason in eight seasons they would’ve pushed their way to the finals. Either way, it seems like it’s only a matter of time for this franchise.

Task 11:

If I were the Calgary Dragons, and I was given the chance to take a player from a team we defeated in the playoffs, I would choose Louie Garrett from the Texas Renegades. Louie is an absolute gamebreaker, and his dynamic skillset could have given the Dragons a fighting chance against the juggernaut West Kendall Platoon. It was difficult to watch such a storied franchise get ragdolled in the finals, but a player like Louie Garrett could have completely flipped the series on its head. It’s hard to argue any one player could turn the tide for a team that got swept in the championship series, but Calgary management would be crazy to pass up a chance to bring Louie into the mix if they were given the opportunity. It’s an interesting idea, and would make for a fun experiment, but sounds like something that would be more feasible in a fantasy hockey league.
