Alternate Reality: Physicists and other smarties believe that this reality is just one of infinite realities existing alongside this one in parallel. Take us over to one of those realities in which everything is the same but these S51 playoffs have unfolded differently. What happened in that reality's playoffs and who's in the Challenge Cup over there?

Okay so the alternative reality will be that the better teams win the matchups they should have won. Like New Orleans beating the Los Angeles Panthers of the Simulation Hockey league. New Orleans would probably win in liike 5 or 6 games, since they had a better team on paper. From that I would say Edmonton Blizzard beats the Calgary dragons, that series was insane as well. So that in the conference finals, it would be New Orleans Specters versus the Edmonton Blizzard to get into the Challenge cup, which would have been a great series to watch unfold. I would see that New Orleans beat the Edmonton Blizzard in 7 nailbitting games. In the east I would keep it the same. Call it what you will but with the shadiness of Hamilton Steelhawks were the best team in the east because of the shadiness, and I would have love to see New Orleans beatdown or Hamilton beating down on New Orleans.

SONNET: http://www.shakespeare-online.com/sonnet...style.html

When I think about Hamilton
I think about their passing
I think about Phelps a ton
With him very high in scoring

And his scoring touch other teams can attest
I also think about Tig, the defensive one
when he hits, he hits the hardest
and when he blocks the shot, the puck always done

as his smothers the puck
there is no goal
and the opponents say fuck
fear goes to their soul

as Tig passes to Robert
and he buries one, and cellies with a smirk


15. 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. Tommy Tuck posted a better SV% during the regular season, but Geezus Kryyst has been lights out during the playoffs. Which team has the advantage in goal for this series?

Tommy Tuck has the advantage because EDM has a better team behind it, and a lot better defense. If you look at their lineup TPE wise, EDM blows HAM out of the water in TPE, so Tuck has much better defense behind it. Also Tommy tuck has multiple awards for being a proven goalie in the playoffs.

B. Edmonton averages more hits per game than Hamilton, but also more PIMs - and Hamilton has proven pretty deadly on the power play this postseason while the Blizzard's PK has struggled. Be the coach: should Edmonton stick to a physical style of play or back off a bit in this series?

Edmonton should keep up the physical style of play against Hamilton. It is what Edmonton has been doing to win against other teams, so why fix something that is not broken. Anyway, Hamilton has a bunch of small pp boys, so getting roughed up will fragile their ego and with enough chirps Hamilton pps will fall off.

C. Who is your X-factor skater in this series? Who's got the intangibles? Who's gonna step up for their team when it matters most? Why do you think so?

Brady McIntyre has the X-Factor skater in this series. he takes big minutes for EDM and will be crucial in order to stop their exploitive ways. I think McIntyre will be targeting some of the bigger names on hamilton with low passing and high scoring in order to knock them out of the games with his big beefy hands.

D. Which player name is your favorite from the rosters of these two teams? (not your favorite player, but your favorite name)

My favorite name from this series is Teddy Cuddles. First of all we all know Teddy Bears are all cuddly, hense the name Teddy Cuddles. But it also a name that is after his favorite Teddy, DrunkenTeddy. Aka his father. One is not known the offical stance that DrunkenTeddy has on his sun Teddy Cuddles, but it would be one to ask them, not me.

E. WOULD YOU RATHER: (a) eat a Pepperoni pizza with Tony Pepperoni (debatably cannibalism), (b) get a nice long hug from Teddy Cuddles, © have Tor and Tommy Tuck tuck you into bed at night, (d) do squats with Hugh Jazz, (e) have a tug of war with Tig, or (f) have Aaron Wilson uncover a brand new strategy for your team to use? Why?

I would love to have a nice long hug from Teddy Cuddles, like who wouldnt want to get wrapped up in the arms of the big beefy boy himself Teddy "Big arms" Cuddles. Like if there was a day that could just be one very long hug from one person I would choose Teddy Cuddles. Even in his older age and a slight drinking problem, those hugs would get me through the day.
