Task 03: (Written, 3 TPE)
If you are in the SMJHL then you have been there for at least a few seasons and its likely that a promotion to the SHL is coming soon. The question is.. are you ready?.. what areas of your game do you believe are SHL ready and what areas are you concerned about? what things are you sad to leave behind and what things are you excited about when moving to your parent club. (Must be 150 words or more)

Am I ready? Ready to step into the storied Buffalo Stampede as a rookie defenseman? Am I ready for the pressure? Hell yea. I will miss, however, the locker room of the Anchorage Armada. At least the weather will be the same though, dark and cold, so that won’t be anything new. At least I’ll get a little more sunlight and better Buffalo Wings. I really like Buffalo Wings, they’re super good. Also there’s probably more stuff t do in Buffalo than in Anchorage and its not a 6 hour plane ride from anything else on the planet. So overall, a little sad to leave Anchorage but overall totally not sad to leave Anchorage. About actually playing for the Stampede? I’ve been working on my fitness, I think I have more in the tank that what I’ve showed in Alaska, gotta lot of skills left on the table that I haven’t put into my game yet so I think I’ll be ok.

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.

5. Well, its always a surprise when a team supposedly rebuilding makes the final, so I’d go with ‘major surprise’. I expected the Specters to come out into the Finals again so having them eliminated early was also a major surprise which may have contributed to this major surprise as well.
6. Maxime Bouchard @Weretarantula has a good chance to be a break out star because, well, due to my homer glasses Bouchard put up some crazy numbers with the Anchorage Armada and should continue to be a super star into the SHL. Everyone who comes out of Anchorage is tailor made for the SHL finals.
7. West Kendall Platoon would be a ‘no surprise’, but I did hope Buffalo would pull through to the finals. The West Kendall Platoon are a solid team, can’t say its surprising they are winning but it definitely wasn’t guaranteed. Gotta give it to Jr95 and Wongy for pulling the team through with some off season additions.
8. You can’t go wrong with a player like Biscuit. Biscuits are hard and solid, you can’t shoot something through a biscuit. I mean he’s go this thing in in the biscuit already. Also sounds like he’s French-Canadian, and you know those French-Canadians have had some good goalies like Roy in the past, so there’s gotta be something there.

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)

Well, obviously, the Buffalo Stampede not making the final was a big disappointment. They were the champs last year and just fell short in the playoffs from making another run at it. No good reason really, just didn’t have it this time around and sometimes the puck luck isn’t with you. I think they’ll go at it again next season with basically the same roster and make it to the finals again. Competition is tough but there isn’t any reason for the Stampede to fail this time around. Might have a few new rookies in the lineup too, but hopefully the limited playtime will be more positive than negative and let a little pressure of the vets with high playing time. Endurance can be a real thing in the playoffs, a little fresh blood might help with the load on both offense and defense. Don’t think they really need any FA signings, but never a reason to turn down a good deal if it presents itself.
