CW TASK: (Written, 3 TPE)

Both teams in our challenge cup series come in with a healthy set of talented young players. if you were to choose a player from either teams SHL roster or there prospect pool with a (start date of S45, S46, S47 or S48) to build your team around, who would it be and why? What qualities on or off the ice make them 'that guy' and how do you think they would shape the image of their franchise? (150+ words and *tag any player involved in this task)

ok so if I had to build my team around a talented young player from either the stampede of buffalo or the jets of winnipeg I think it would not be dermot lavelle who is not a player from s45 or s46 or s47 or s48 which obviously I knew when I first wrote this post and definitely did not misunderstand the prompt so it would have to be michael scarn and not just because he is the only young player I know on either team that is a total coincidence it is also because trautner has a history of earning good in sim leagues so that would be nice to have on a new team you know now the downside is that I am on trautner's team in the pro baseball experience sim league and we've gotten BUMPED from the playoffs in the first round for the last four seasons so that isn't ideal when you're the best team in the league but on the other hand he helped build the best team in the league so I guess it is a double edged sword type thing and since he is in a lot of sim leagues and seems to be fairly well liked he could help in free agency pitches and such

CW TASK: (Written, 3 TPE)

For most of us S48 is over and now its time to sit down with your GM's for a season end review! talk to your GM's about what youve accomplished, what you are strong at, what you need to improve on and what would you like your role to be moving into S49. Task must be 150 words or more. (*Tag your GM’s)

yo @Grapehead and @tweedledunn I have many accomplishments that I have accomplished this season so like first of all I did multiple PTs and updated at least 3 times which is pretty cool and also I scored some goals and also had some assists and also prevented some goals and prevented some assists which helped us win some games so basically I single handedly caused us to make the playoffs which is also pretty cool hmm as for what I need to improve on I would say that my biggest weakness is that I'm too good and that might discouraging to the other players on the team who aren't as good as I am two such examples are Charlie Schieck and Ray Bork and another one of my weaknesses is being too awesome which caused us to make the playoffs and get a worse draft pick than if I was only normal awesome as for the role I want moving forward I would definitely say that I would like the role of 10 time challenge cup champion so get busy would ya

Task 05: (Written, up to 4 TPE)

Pick up to 4 challenge cup related topics to write about! Each topic is worth '1' TPE. Each answer must be '50' words or more.

1. Put together a challenge cup fantasy team using the 2 teams in the finals as the player pool. This fantasy team must include at least 1 young player (S44 or higher) and in 50+ words discuss your choices.

2. This series boasts an interesting matchup at the blue line between star studded defenders! Which includes Troy McClure III, Gary Grease and Slip McScruff from Winnipeg.. & Buffalo's Tatu Makela, Connor Tanner and Charles Walker.. which group do you expect will outshine the other and why? 

3. Winnipeg making it to the finals was an unexpected surprise. What were some of the main reasons why this franchise was able to persevere into the leagues most important series.  (*tag anyone involved)

4. Buffalo has made it to the finals in 2 of the last 3 seasons. Who or what has been a primary reason for the recent success of this franchise. (*tag anyone involved)

5. Both franchises come into the series with a hot Cedric! Between Winnipegs Cedric Moreau and Buffallo's Cedric Robinson which emerging netminder has the advantage over the other in this series?

1. ok so my fantasy team would consist of only the players I know on the teams because I am trying really hard to complete this stupid championship week without needing to look at the index so anyway I would pick tatu makela or whatever wbf's player is called and also dermot lavelle and also ztevans's player whose name is jason visser I believe and then it gets a lil difficult because I'm running out of names but I think trautner is on winnipeg so his player name is michael scarn or something I think that's an office reference oh and speaking of winnipeg I know gary grease so that sets my defense and I need 1 more forward so let's go with selich oh yeah and also I need a goalie so cedric moreau obviously lmao

2. god damnit if only I had read this task before I did the previous one it would've been easier oh well I expect winnipeg to outshine because buffalo's group includes 2 of the biggest suckybois I've ever met which are tatu makela and connor tanner like yikes what a tandem of suckitude that is HARD PASS

3. I think the biggest reason that winnipeg was able to make the finals was because in their first three series they were able to outscore their opponents four times before being outscored four times and the way they did this was by scoring more goals than they allowed which means it was a mixture of offense and defense and a healthy dose of goaltending too

5. Obviously cedric moreau has the advantage over cedric robinson because he has their entire careers so why should this series be any different like moreau has a way better pedigree coming from the montreal militia while robinson played for some bum team not sure which one but I feel like it got contracted so ya this one isn't even close bud

CW TASK: (Written, 3 TPE)

CHALLENGE CUP HISTORY reports will be viewed instead of commericals for those watching the series online! pick any previous challenge cup finals from before your current player's time in the SHL and in 150+ words talk about the series including who won and in how many games, and who were some of the better players in that series. [include link to archives]

ok so I'm going to write about the s35 finals because they were my first finals after joining the site and creating a player and I was like holy shit this is pretty cool anyway here is the link and toronto won that series in 7 games over portland and grapehead did the play by play of game 7 which is a funny coincidence because grapehead soon afterward became the GM of portland so that is a nice little twist of fate he was also the goalie for toronto but I feel like he got pulled in favor of harter earlier in the series or maybe I have that backward no I think that's right anyway he was involved in toronto beating portland before then taking over portland a couple seasons later anyway this was also a spicy series because portland was up 3-1 and toronto came back to win 4-3 which broke their curse of not winning the championship which had gone on for a long time and the best player in the series was definitely harter who turned around the series
