Which record would you say will be the hardest to break? Explain yourself!

The hardest record to break will almost definitely be the most shutout in a season. The realism era was dominated by plenty of Hall of Fame goaltenders, but Season 13 for Tom Corcoran was absolutely one for the record books. He posted an insane 11 shutouts in the 5 game season, completely obliterating the record of 7 at the time (which was matched by fellow goaltender Josef Heiss). Considering the average most shutouts each season is 5 or 6 nowadays, it's going to take a complete meltdown on STHS' part for someone to even come close to Corcoran's 11 shutouts during the Realism Era.

The Tomen Special: What would you consider to be the most underrated SHL record in the current era? Explain yourself.

Going outside the box here a little bit, but the most under-rated record of the Realism Era is Danny Foster's 300 hit season. Only twice in the history of the SHL has the 300 hit mark been touched (the other being Aidan Richan's 301 hit season in S11). Foster has completely dominated the Realism Era, also owning 2nd place on the hit list with a 260 hit performance the very next season. Barney Stinson comes the closest to Foster, sitting at 250 and a country mile away from the incredible 300 hits we saw back in Season 34.
