The teams decided to donate to help with the wildfires in Australia which have killed a ton of animals and threatened many people. They will auction off jerseys, sticks and other merchandise and signed stuff to benefit charity, as well as hold a raffle. Both teams have players attending and giving speeches, so they will come together to benefit a good cause. They are also allowing fans to buy meet and greets and spend a few minutes with their favorite stars. Both teams are also posting about the charity fundraiser on their websites and making press releases about it, and players have been asked to spread the word on social media. Every player on both sides agreed to participate which is a great thing. Many players and coaches are donating out of their own pockets, with some of the bigger names being very generous. They’re trying to raise a few thousand dollars from the fans and also to involve teams that aren’t in the finals, get the whole league involved.
Coach is asking me to play defense, which I have not ever played before but I feel I could survive at. I have 90 defense and I’m a smart player, so I have a lot of the skill set you need to play that position. I’m also fast on my skates, I have a lot of stamina to play a lot of minutes to make up for the missing guys, and I’m more than willing to sacrifice my body to block shots. My stickhandling is on point so I can poke check and carry the puck out of the zone, I think I’d make a fluid skating puck moving mobile offensive defenseman. I’d be the perfect guy to man the point on the power play and fill some big shoes! My monster slap shot would be past goalies before they can even blink, and of course I can pass and cycle the puck so it’s prime power play defense material.
My player is planning to train as well as relax, binge some Netflix and play some video games. I think a few hours of training every other day is fine, I’ll hit the weight section of the gym and do cardio to stay in shape. As for relaxing, maybe it’s a good idea to throw a few parties and invite the boys over, sounds fun. Nothing like getting wasted and being stupid to celebrate not having to go to work. Could even bring in a ton of food and hire a DJ, make it a real event. There will be international hockey to play in the offseason so it’s not truly a break from matches, I’ll be trying to get a gold medal. The Wolfpack will probably have a training camp after that that I’ll be required to go to as part of the preseason conditioning regiment so it won’t be that long of a break, got to enjoy it while it all lasts.
I could see Tony Pepperoni getting a Razov for playoffs MVP with how many goals he is putting up. He is lighting up the scoresheet for Edmonton and has really emerged as one of the top players in the game. If they can just get the cup he’s basically a lock for it, his stats are enough to convince me of that. They could not do it without him. He makes the plays and the big finishes in those crucial moments, and he has been the difference maker in many playoff games. He deserves it in my eyes, few others can even come close to comparing to his talent level.
The Wolfpack are making sriracha chips as the team has a great love for spicy food, and what better than to have chips with that kick to it? They go great with hummus, adding spice to whatever your favorite dip might be, and it’s tested positively. They are also rolling out a dragonfruit soda to go with the exotic smoothies trend; if you like those smoothie shops, why not drink it as a carbonated beverage? It’s tropical, refreshing, and sweet, quenching thirst in a dreamy way. The internet seems quite intrigued by the idea, it might not be worthy for Instagram but it could still fit in with recent trends.
