S50 Championship Week

1. Written, 3 TPE (150 words min)
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 an Alberta native and having been to Calgary many times, Ryan Shepard chooses to visit Florida. Until the SMJHL team relocated to Carolina this past season, he had never been that far east in the US. For a hotel, he chooses the Hilton in downtown Tampa and gets the penthouse suite with a pool. He invites his teammate Andrey Barbashev II, and old teammate Raquel Guiterrez to go see the games with him and hang out for a few days in their off season. Unfortunately with them all being underage in the United States, they can't do anything overly exciting. To run up Eggy's tab they visit the finest dining Tampa has to offer, going to a different five star restaurant for each meal. Before this, Shepard had never eaten a dinner with courses but is finally able to experience it. He doesn't know how he'll go back to his 6000 calorie a day workout diet after this vacation.

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?

Am I allowed to say I was rooting for both teams? As a Knight player, this is one of the few matchups that I equally want both teams to win. Calgary has Barry Batsbak who is still helping with the Knights lineup, and send down Prince Devitt who I got the pleasure of playing with for two seasons. Tampa has my ex CoGM Nicklaus Klaus, and his pal Nolan Sawchuk who's active in our discord. They also have our old captain, Gunnar Soderberg, and a big player in the Canadian international scene Matt Kholin. I suppose typing this out, I know more people personally on Tampa but I would be happy with either team winning.

Who's the best player that you have witnessed in the SHL never to make it to the Challenge Cup finals? Or what player that hasn't made it to the finals is most deserving and why? Were they close? Was theirs a story of hearbreak? Is there still hope in the future? (150+ words)

The best player I’ve witnessed in the SHL that’s never made it to the Challenge Cup finals is the one and only Cameron Carter II. Over the past three seasons he’s managed to keep up a 0.82 point per game pace on a Chicago team without ever having had an elite center to work with. This past season, he was the only player with 200+ shots, 200+ hits, and 20+ shots blocked. He should be in consideration for a Dar nomination, but due to playing on a weaker team his -17 plus/minus will hurt his chances. There is plenty of hope ahead for him to see a deep playoff run into the finals. The Syndicate’s current number one center, Daniel Smeb is getting close to his prime years and will finally give CC2 the chance to show us that he truly can be a ppg player and carry his team to a Challenge Cup. Also once Chicago calls up their elite young S50 prospects, Akira Ren and Ryan Shepard it will usher in an era of consistent postseasons for this still new franchise.

As competition ramps up for the playoffs, players (both those still in and those eliminated) work extra hard to improve areas of their game that are lacking. What one area of your game do you really needs to focus on improving and how will this benefit the team?

An area of my game that I really need to focus on is shrugging off hits. Ryan Shepard had 98 hits registered against him this past season, good for 9th most against in the SMJHL. This will help the team due to the fact that with every hit received, the puck becomes loose with a good chance for a turnover. Getting hit less often will increase the team’s overall possession rates, giving them a small increase in offensive zone time. Also as the team’s leading scorer, it’s always better for the puck to be on Shepard’s stick, until he sets someone up for a goal. This offseason Shepard will spend a decent amount of his time devoted to core strengthening exercises, such as balance board training and numerous situps. He is also taking serious consideration into putting a handful of TPE into his strength stat which would directly help this problem, and give him a tiny boost to his faceoffs.

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

D. My favourite player name on either team is Nikolas Klaus. Sadly he did not choose Santa as his render, this was a missed opportunity. Living up to the name of Mr.Klaus, he does however give his team the gift of scoring being one of Tampa’s top scorers. He could not quite gift them a cup though.

E. I would take the hour long stick and puck session with Jepox. It might be a short session, but I think I’d be able to learn a lot from him and get some good tips for my game. With him being a long time veteran I would hope some of his greatness rubs off on me.

Code:
15. Casual Member Special, 3 TPE max - 1 TPE for participation, 0.5 TPE for each correct answer - SEND ANSWER IN PM TO "PT DIRECTOR" (tagged below)
A. As defined by draft class, who is the oldest player in this series?
B. What is the name of the Calgary Dragons' Arena?
C. Name 3 previous names of the Tampa Bay Barracuda franchise
D. From these two teams, which player had the most PIMs in the S50 regular season? (Look, I'll even give you a link to the index right below this code box. When I posted the link directly, it auto-corrected the colon + slash into a partial frown face; it looks funny and the link still works so i'm leaving it)
