Task 05:
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?
I think West Kendall have the advantage because JR is the simmer and has rigged it all for them clearly Tongue

. Just kidding, I honestly don't know how to break down these two sets, they are both fantastic managers and have proved that throughout the season. Getting to the final wasn't surprising when you see who is at the helms of the teams. Both sets have the experience in the past too, so you can't even edge that in either direction.
3. Which player in the finals should be 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 difference maker in their franchise winning the title here in S47?
Kata Vilde @BarnabasCollins. It's no secret Calgary rely on their goalie to save them in times of need, but he is way more than able to pull of such a thing. One of the best net minders all season, his lightning reflexes stone wall his opponents time and time again. It's only logical to put him up as our MVP and potential winner of the whole thing.
5. After trading off their 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.
Mild surprise. Esa is a legend of a manager on the site for a reason. Whilst it may be true that the Dragons punched above their weight in the playoffs, they have shown that they are a team to be reckoned with. Everyone in the league has a thing against the Dragons, and that's because they just seem to be incapable of being held down.
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.
Mild surprise. They traded to get some star players and get right back into the game before the playoffs. I don't think anyone was too shocked when they made it, especially after having such a successful season. The writing had been on the wall for a fair amount of time if you ask me. The Dragons are doing something similar in terms of building up, it's just been a slightly different progression is all.
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?
I think I prefer Vilde. He has held the Dragons time and time again over the season. West Kendall have a much stronger team on paper, so Biscuit should theoretically have to do less to get it, where as Kata will have to be on his absolute a game for a lot of it. But he proved during the season that he's more than capable of doing so.

Task 09:

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)
Probably the Winnipeg Jets. After winning the cup they have really fallen off the bandwagon. Their players aren't even playing too poorly, it just doesn't seem to be enough to get them over the hill in the last few seasons. It will be interesting to see what direction they take in the next season. Their rookies played very well given how the rest of the lineup performed, so maybe they will hinge their bets on them picking up more of the slack and only improving their chances next time. I think the major part of their inadequacies this season have come from their goal tending to be honest. Both their minders have posted .905 percents or close to it, and that just won't cut it if you want to be truly successful. Saving roughly 9 out of 10 shots is bad news when you are facing 30 shots a night. It means your forwards have to be producing a minimum of 3 goals just to get to overtime generally.
