VIP Status babyyyyyyyy - your player has been invited to attend one of the first homestands of the CC finals as a VIP guest - all expenses paid, front row seats, any hotel you want - and it's all on the Commissioner's dime! Are you going to Games 1 and 2 in Tampa or Games 3 and 4 in Calgary? Why are you picking there? And what are you going to do in that city to run up Eggy's tab?? (This is the same prompt as last year but we've got different cities! be creative! Don't re-use what was written last season)

As Moore did last season in Boston, he plans on going to a bar tour, and as Moore hates hot and humid weathers, he will be going to the city of the Parm, Calgary. He plans on heading to at least 4 or 5 bars before each game and he's bringing the heat this time, as instead of just having one beer at each place, he will have one beer and one glass of whiskey at every bar. Hoping to be in prime hockey fan mode by the time he gets to the games. He will be staying at the most expensive hotel in town and will not shy away from clearing the minibar each day, as mentioned, it's Eggys money so better go all out. For food he will be trying the best chicken parm places in town to see what the big deal about them is. Along with a few burger joints to see which place can be growned the best Bacon Cheeseburger in Calgary. In addition to what was mentioned above, Moore will try to get VIP access to backstage so he can challenge Mike "Augment" Izzy to a fight as he's tired of Mr Izzy scoring on him and the Chiefs every damn game.

After a slow start to the regular season, the Dragons have surged of late and have rallied around the #CalgaWe notion of togetherness. On the other side, the Barracuda battled through a difficult East and are led by a very strong young core. Which team are you personally rooting for to take home the Challenge Cup and why?

Not really a massive fan of either teams in the Finals as they're not my team, but if i have to choose I'm gonna go with the Calgary Dragons, although Calgary has had a lot of success unlike Seattle, San Jose.. Tampa Bay, i'd much rather have them win once more over Tampa. I like the Dragons team name and colours better than Tampa and the great podcaster and American hero Otis B. Driftwood is a member of their team too and i'd rather have him raise another cup than someone on the Fish noises team. Oh and also Calgary is the nicer place of the two by a mile, so i'd rather see the cup in the cool Calgary weather than in Tampa. (123 words)

Which player from Calgary or Tampa Bay would you bet on to win a regular season individual award in a future season? What player and what award? What makes you think they'll live up to their potential and take home the hardware?

Benjamin Blue from Tampa bay is a great choice, he's a great goalie who's in his prime still and has already shown before that he can carry a team when the situation calls for it. I wouldn't be surprised to see him bring home the Mike Honcho trophy or the McBride. Ron Mexico or Sarmad Khan aren't out of the question for him either. From Calgary i'm gonna go and say Esa Parmborg, he's young but had a solid rookie season and will most likely explode in the next 2 or 3 seasons and become a new 1st line talent for the Dragons, i could see him winning the Dar Trophy in the future.

Code:
13. Written, up to 5 TPE Pick up to 5 Challenge Cup related topics to write about! Each topic is worth 1 TPE. Each answer must be 50+ words to qualify.

A. Each team enters these finals with a red hot superstar - longtime league legend Mike Izzy for Calgary and surprise breakout star Gunnar Soderberg for Tampa Bay. Which of these players will have a more dominant finals?

B. Kata Vilde and Benjamin Blue are two of the best goaltenders in the league - which team has the advantage in net?

C. Do you expect this to be a high-scoring series or a low-scoring series? A mix? Do you think it'll be competitive or will one team run away with it?

D. What's your favorite player NAME on either team? why? (note: not who's your favorite player. which player name)

E. If you could choose any one of the following four options, which would you pick? 1. A chicken parm sandwich from Esa 2. A tray of cookies from c00kies 3. A custom feet pic from JSS 4. An hour long stick and puck session with Jepox

A. Mike Izzy is my bet, just because he's too good of a player and despite getting older is still an elite forward. Not only does he have incredible offensive skill but he plays hard, very physical and is excellent on both ends of the ice. He thrives in the playoffs and will be the player to watch.

B. It's a tough one, both goaltenders are some of the SHLs elite, but i have to go with Vilde of the Dragons here. She's been a rock for Calgary and will most likely be a deciding factor in at least one or two of the games. It will be a good goalie battle and goalie fans should pay special attention this series.

C. I think it will be in the middle, with how good both teams are and how excellent both goalies are, i expect a lot of tight games but because there's so much firepower i still expect some goal scoring between these teams. I don't think they'll be 2-1 or 1-0 games but somewhere in the 3-2 or 4-3 final result area.
