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 S53 playoffs have unfolded differently. What happened in that reality's playoffs and who's in the Challenge Cup over there?

For the first round, the scenario stays the same in the East where the two-best team in the league, Hamilton and New England, both win their first round matchup without too much trouble. However, in the West, things went completely differently. Both series go all the way to go seven like they did during the S53 playoffs, but both winners change. This means that New Orleans, stay out of all controversies, and pull the upset against the Panthers while the Calgary Dragons get the best out of the Blizzard. For the second round, nothing changes in the Eastern Conference where the Steelhawks reach the final. However, in the Western Conference, we have two different teams going at it. During the regular season, Calgary and New Orleans played four games against each other and the Dragons won three of them. The Dragons would still get the best out of them in the playoffs and came out with the win in a close series. Finally, in this scenario, we would end up with a final between the Hamilton Steelhawks and the Calgary Dragons.

With everyone getting a free redistribution this offseason, S54 is quite wide open at the moment. Before those redistributions take place, who would you anticipate being the top team(s) for next season?

I think the two main title contenders for next season will be the same as this year. These would be the New England Wolfpack and the Hamilton Steelhawks. Both teams had a differential over 100 this season and looking at their roster, nothing indicates that they can’t be as good as they were this season. The Wolfpack just got eliminated and they have already started making move to be better next season. They improve their goaltending by trading for Benjamin Blue which should improve the team defensive record. What we have seen from the Wolfpack this offseason is that they want to put themselves in the best position to beat the Hamilton if they have to face each other again in the playoffs next season. Other these two teams, Buffalo and Manhattan could cause trouble in the East and a playoff upset is never out of the question. In the Western Conference, I expect the Los Angeles Panthers to be a team to fear again next season.

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.

The food item would be sold in Edmonton. It would contain a dark sauce to represent Alberta’s oil and the product would also use the famous Alberta beef. The first item in the product is a toasted burger bun. Between the buns, you put a steak coming from an Alberta beef, so you basically got a burger. Then, you cut the burger into eight different parts like you would do for a pizza. You put the burger on a plate, and add French fries all around until the burger is surrounded. On the french fries and on the burger, add cheddar cheese curds that came all the way from Quebec. Finally, add poutine sauce all over the cheese, the french fries and the burger to get the final results and there you have it. The product is called the Alberta burger poutine and is sold at every food stand in the arena. The food item would be marketed will the help of posters that would be put at the entrance of every stand section in the building.

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.

Code:
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?

I think Tony Pepperoni his currently the best player in this season’s final. Pepperoni is the currently the playoff-leading scorer and he was also the seventh top scorer during the regular season, while the two Steelhawks player who outscore him during the regular season are producing at a pace that is under one point per game.

Code:
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?

The playoffs have always been renowned to be more physical than the regular season. To add to this, the referees are usually keen to call fewer penalties during the playoff because they don't want to interfere too much with the outcomes of the game. That’s why I think having an advantage is physical attributes like strength and balance will give Hamilton the edge.

c. Assemble your ideal fantasy team out of players in this series - F, F, F, D, D, G. Explain your choices.

F: Flacko Lagerfield
F: Tony Pepperoni
F: Robert Phelps
D: Tig Murphy
D: Brady McIntyre
G: Tommy Tuck

My forward choices are based solely on their offensive production during the season and the playoffs. Since my forwards choice were so heavily offensively weighted, I choose the defenseman with the help of the defensive game rating. For the goalie, I looked strickly at their playoffs performance and Tommy Tuck being undefeated up to this point was the best choice.

d. Blizzard... snow... ok debate time - do you like snow? yes or no? why or why not?

I love snow, because it is a massive improvement on rain and so much more beautiful to watch. While rain will just go away unless it decides to turn into a river, with snow, you are able to work with your creativity and you can do whatever you want like a snowman or you can build yourself a fort or an igloo. It comes at the small cost of being a bit cold.
