2. Written, 3 TPE (150 words min) 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?
An alternate reality where Hamilton never stumble upon their game breaking abuse of the mechanism of the engine. Truth is that they probably don't even make the finals. They would have been out in the first or second round of the playoff. I know that Edmonton would probably still be in the finals, cause they are good, they are strong, they are fast. They deserve it. i would probably have them face off against whoever lost in the previous round of the playoff. I have to go check, hold on. Turns out it's the Manhattan Rage, which i am fine with. Jaywhy is a fair GM and i would have loved to see him win a cup or at least try to. They even had some pretty intense forward power when i look at their stats. Four skaters over 10 points in 12 games is fairly good. Luke Thomason is even still the leading pointer of the whole playoff. (159)

6. Written, 2 TPE (100 words min) Which player from Hamilton or Edmonton 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?
I dont know who it is, but i think Boruvka Banananak will more than likely score some awards down the road either for points productivity or something like that. He managed to get nine points in the playoffs. Of his five goals, three of them were game winning goals which is what i call poise. He managed to do it on twenty nine shots on the goal which is good for a 17.24% shot percentage. He managed to stay out of the box for the whole playoffs. He played on the power play and managed to get an assist on it. He needs to work a bit more with his body however as he only had 1 hit and three shot blocked. Once he'll do that, he'll be a well rounded player. (132)

9. Written, 1 TPE Write a haiku about an SHL-related topic. Be sure to follow the 3 line, 5-7-5 syllable structure or Godzilla will stomp on your house/apartment while you sleep.
S. H. L. is dead
Passing is at all time low
F. H. M. save us

10. Graphic OR Written, 2 TPE (100 words min if written) The SHL is partnering with Doritos and Gatorade to create a unique flavor of chip and beverage for each SHL and SMJHL team. Create a graphic of the chip bag or the Gatorade bottle for any SHL or SMJHL team OR describe the flavor of chip or beverage for any SHL or SMJHL team. Make sure the branding is tight or it has a quirky name to get people to buy it #marketing
The new Gatorade flavor that the SHL is creating for the Hamilton Steelhawks is called "Saltear". It's made with the Tears of the Children of SHL. The ones unhappy with cheesy strategy of lowering as much as possible the passing of the Steelhawks players in favor of having a high scoring. They sell the bottle for the same price they value their dignity at about 40$ which also represent the minimum in passing any skater can have. To add on that, it pair really well with the doritos flavor named "Cup of Cheese" that just came out to celebrate the cup win of the Hamilton Steelhawks. (106)

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. Of Course Kryyst have the avantage in the playoff when you play a cheesy strats like Hamilton kinda manage to pull. Tuck will be shelled left and right so there will be more goals scored against him. Tuck didn't had to play all his game against Hamilton and that's the reason he has a good SV%. It won't last for long once it's on the ice against those steelyboys. (69 (nice))
B. Edmonton should have tried to go all defense in the Series. Probably something like 0-5-0. That would have been the only way to stop the shooty boys to shell Tuck into oblivion. It's obvious that the powerplay will be good for Hamilton when they are shooting so much. Blizzard's PK will be destroyed so fast. (55)
C. Boruvka Banananak was most likely the most intangible player of the playoff with 3 winning goal of the serie. If it wasn't of him, Edmonton would probably have won those three games, but it wouldn't be thanks to him. I think he brought something more to his team than no one else would have been able to do in those game until someone else scored. (65)
D. If i had to pick, which i do for this task, i would select Hercules Rockefeller. Honnestly, i would pick none but i have no choice. Hercules Rockefeller has a funny ring to it and it's a reference to The Simpsons episode "Homer to the Max" where Homer is forced to change his name. He tries for multiple names before having to settle for "Max Power". (66)
E. I would definitively prefer to be tucked into bed by Tor Tuck and Tommy Tuck. I love ErM and i think i am friend with Muford so i would love to have those two Tuck me into bed. It might get a bit crowded with ErM's multiple characters but i'm never one to say no to a bit of fun. (60)

Honestly? congrats to whoever come up with the scoring vs passing cheese that Hamilton used and they should be voted as Most Valuable Player. it's most likely the only reason why they manage to wipe out everyone so easily during the season and get the cup right now. It does deserve kind of a congratulation. We already know that SHL will be moving to another sim engine soon and we need to give credits where it's due to force that move. Everyone hated STHS anyway but i doubt we'd move if there wasn't this stupidity happening. I'm glad someone did something stupid enough to force a whole community to scramble to find some fun in this forum anymore and goes on to win the championship. (125)
