With new tools at our disposal in FHM, we may eventually see some new awards enter the fold. Create a suggestion for a new SHL award. What kind of achievement is the award given for? Who's the award named after? Who would've won the award this season?

For this one I'll go with a suggestion that I actually made myself before stepping down from the awards committee and that would be to keep the Dar the way it's been traditionally, as a power forward award, and add a new award to recognize defensive forwards. The reasoning is simple, with many new stats available in FHM it becomes easier to judge a player's defensive contributions and the award that's historically been more of a power forward award will end up being diluted as players who are good defensively but not necessarily power forwards will be able to be honoured with the Dar now, making it mean less for all the elite power forwards who've won the award in the past.

Come up with a program of intermission entertainment for one of the games of the finals. What's the between-period on-ice entertainment the fans will enjoy? The goofier the better, go crazy.

I decided to come up with two intermission entertainment ideas, one for each of the arenas in the finals. First we'll do Edmonton. So hear me out, ambush the stands with a huge blizzard of fake snow after the first period, then they get to spend the rest of the intermission digging themselves out so that they can watch the rest of the game. Sounds shitty and that's the point because it should actively reflect how shitty the city itself is. Meanwhile in Hamilton, the idea is to distribute laptops with FHM installed on them so that fans could spend the entire intermission having absolutely no life and doing whatever they can to make the league not enjoyable for everyone else. There's only 20 minutes but if you multiply 20 minutes times all those fans in attendance it should come out to the right number of hours to accomplish that.

The arenas in Edmonton and Hamilton certainly don't need any gimmicks to get people into the stadium for the series, but the arenas want to make sure they're pulling out all the stops on the big stage. Help the concessions department of one of these two teams develop a new product, with marketing specifically pertaining to this finals series, to be sold at the arena during the finals. Describe the product and the marketing in 150 words or create a promotional poster showing the product, its name, the price, etc.

Code:
13. Written, up to 4 TPE Pick up to 4 Challenge Cup related topics to write about! Each topic is worth 1 TPE. Each answer must be 50+ words to qualify.
a. Who is the best player in this CC finals? Plenty of good candidates: Lagerfield, Phelps, Kryyst, McIntry, Pepperoni, Scholz, etc. Who's your choice for best player and why?
b. Based on player ratings, EDM has the advantage in speed and acceleration and HAM has the advantage in balance and strength. Which team's physical skills will give them the edge in this series?
c. Assemble your ideal fantasy team out of players in this series - F, F, F, D, D, G. Explain your choices.
d. Blizzard... snow... ok debate time - do you like snow? yes or no? why or why not?

a. The answer here's gotta be Flacko Lagerfield easily, the veteran forward was one of the most elite players in the league in his prime and just when people thought his prime was over, he came back and dropped a 71 point season to lead the league in scoring showing that age doesn't matter much when you're truly an elite player.

b. Going to have to go with Hamilton for this one, speed and acceleration are important in today's game but they're not enough on their own and Hamilton have right mix of those those two along with strength and balance to make their players really difficult to knock off the puck, they're really strong in possession because of their physical stats and Edmonton's speed alone may not be enough if they can't figure out how to get Hamilton off the puck.

c.

F - Flacko Lagerfield
F - Tony Pepperoni
F - Aaron Wilson
D - Brady McIntyre
D - Karlstrasse Scholz
G - Hamilton Steelhawks

This forward group has the right mix of skill and physicality ensuring that my fantasy team gets the point production of top level players while also getting valuable points for hits, on defense we have two of the league's best and most well rounded defensemen with two blue liners who can get strong numbers across the board and in goal we have one of the best goalies in the league who plays for a team where he can stack up the wins.

d. Do i like snow? Snow is great for the holiday season, who doesn't love some snow around Christmas and New Years? After January 1st though snow just becomes annoying, long cold months of shovelling snow, digging out cars, reduced parking spots...it really becomes more and more of an annoyance the longer it stays and in Canada sometimes that can be well into March and even April, so yes I like snow but in Canada it gets extremely annoying.

Code:
16. CW TRIVIA, 3 TPE max - 1 TPE for participation, 0.5 TPE for each correct answer. This is now completed through a Google form linked below. Make sure to spell your answers correctly or you will not get credit. Post your verification word in your CW post.
