VIP Status again 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! Eggy has complained to me the past two seasons about having to pay for this so I'm graciously volunteering SDCore to front the costs for this season's splurge! Are you going to Games 1 and 2 in Edmonton or Games 3 and 4 in Hamilton? Why are you picking there? And what are you going to do in that city to run up SD's tab?? (This is the same prompt as in the past but we've got different cities! be creative! Don't re-use what was written last season.)
Well, as I’m a player in the Challenge Cup Finals (go Steelhawks) I get to do both, but if I had to pick one, it would definitely be Hamilton, just because it’s gonna be a lot closer to the fun shit Anazibf ACTUALLY wants to do! Toronto is only a short drive away, and downtown Toronto is gonna be filled with hotspots that Anazibf is dying to hit. Great nightlife scene with clubs like Wildflower or Toybox, and some of his favourite food joints like The Works Gourmet Burgers, or Burger Priest, or the dozens of great family owned shawarma places! Of course, he’s gonna get court side tickets to watch the defending NBA Champion Raptors as well, as he’s a massive fan and loves to watch the fan favourite Pascal Siakam play, as well as getting a chance to take an up close look at Kyle Lowry’s sweet, thick ass.

Pretend that your team has hit an injury bug - the roster is so depleted that your coach is asking you to play out of position. What position is your coach asking you to play and what about your player build will help you be successful in this new role?
Skao Anazibf is a monster on the dot and an offensive specialist, so it would be a really tough call to have to move him away from his natural position to another one, but if it HAD to happen, Anazibf idolizes former Steelhawk Nour Harrak, who started his career looking to be offensively dynamic the same way Skao Anazibf has been looking to do, but made the switch to defence late in his career at the request of the Steelhawks management members Hallsy and Waters. Anazibf is equally as dedicated to Hamilton, and if the team really needed it, he would switch to defence, especially in a situation where they NEED him there for a cup run. His defence being on the higher end will certainly help with that, but strength and skating are definitely gonna be huge factors as well. Not to mention Anazibf but get to be partnered with fellow S51 rookie Samuel Michaud!

The two finals teams have decided to team up for a fundraising opportunity to benefit both cities. What noble cause will the teams decide to benefit? What sort of fundraiser will the teams hold together? How will the two teams mesh before the finals start?
In partnership with both the mayors of the city of Edmonton and the city of Hamilton, the team will be contributing money towards AIDS research and support around the globe for this finals. They’ll be contributing to the cause in a variety of ways, like a car wash drive done by hit players like Robert Phelps and Hugh Jazz from the Steelhawks, and Teddy Cuddles and Julio Tokolosh from the Blizzard. The mayors from each city will also be donating $10,000 for every goal scored in the finals, with Hamilton’s mayor donating for every Edmonton goal, and Edmonton’s mayor donating for every Hamilton goal. Finally, the rosters from both teams will be holding a 3on3 tourney, with a buy in auction to get a chance to play with players from both teams! All proceeds from the game, including refreshments and memorabilia sold on site will be donated to the cause as well.

Write a sonnet about an SHL-related topic. Be sure to follow the proper ABAB-CDCD-EFEF-GG rhyme structure or your HS English (or equivalent any-language Writing teacher) will track you down in and give you a failing grade.
Hamilton forsake passing and boosted their scoring,
Turning backs to the league as they rained evil down,
They cared for but 2 stats, whilst TPE whoring,
And painted the SHL’s faces with frowns.
They swept the Stampede and they near swept the Rage,
Whilst their players trolled forums in ways quite malicious,
They site wished for the roster to be locked in a cage,
But Narconis would claim that their salt was delicious.
Their final task was the Blizzard from Edmonton,
With a roster so strong, and Tokolosh the cow,
The Steelhawks unfazed, focused on the cup they’d win,
But the New Orleans Spectres, claimed it shouldn’t be allowed
And with playoffs wrapped, and all strife put to rest,
It was discovered at least, that Hamilton was the best.
