1. In terms of personal performance this season, I’m pretty happy. I put up a career high points total and was able to really contribute on the ice offensively, and be decent defensively. I have been working a lot on my ability to finish, and that was shown with a nice 27 goals this season. It was individually the best season of my career despite starting to get into the late years and hit regression. The one place that I really nieed to work on is my penalty taking. Along with my career high point total, I hit a career high penalty minute total which can definitely hurt my team and not allow us to play at out very best. In order to perform better next season, I will have to work a bit on my discipline while taking the time to hit the gym and work on my physical attributes in order to maintain top form and be the offensive players the people of San Francisco expect me to be.

Unfortunately, the watch parties are going to be a little different for our team this year. Usually I would invite everyone over to my box in the alley and be sure that I pull out all the stops for them with premium table scraps from the 5 star restaurant down the road. This year, with the quarantine, we’re going to have to settle for hopping onto a call. Due to my experiences with the shadow HO, I have spent much of my contract money on developing a conferencing app that will allow my team and I to get together while not having the security vulnerabilities of something like zoom. While I won’t be able to share my delightful food with everybody, I will be able to send them recipes in advance to make the most of whatever restaurant’s trash they can pick through pre-game. Some of them want to cheat and go to the grocery store, but I guess some people just aren’t as picky about getting the authentic experience.

Someone going missing is very clearly the work of the shadow organization behind the controlling of the head office of our league. Long have they been trying to sway things in their favour, and clearly this is a kidnapping that is intended to extort Andrei. While this organization is very slippery and hard to find, I have a lot of experience tracking them down and have developed my special tinfoil hat to be able to track the wavelengths of their cell phones. During this offseason, I will take the time to follow these wavelengths to find Sergei and bring him back to his brother. I will also be sure to inform the police, since my track record of getting a hold of the organization has been poor as I just keep missing them!

Last year was a very polarizxed year with a few of the long standing hockey dominant countries working their way back to the top in a IIHF history in which they have faced some struggles in the years coming up to it. I predict that as last year, both Canada and the United States will come out with very strong performances as they look to bring IIHF Gold back home. Both teams have very strong rosters filled with veterans and some of the best young players in the game. For Canada, these are players who grew up with dreams to do nothing else where hockey reigns supreme in the sports world. They are expected to win every year, and this is the type of team this year who has that ability. It has a lethal combination of some of the league’s tops scorers, defenders and goalies which will help propel them through the group stages and be heavy favourites in the playoffs.

While I hate to toot my own horn, I believe that I Jeff Brogen would be a good candidate for this. I believe that I bring something interesting and unique to the table with my knowledge and chatter about the shadow organization that is controlling the SHL. This could be used in order to bring some sanity to the stranger parts of games, and to bring some integrity to ensure that the games are not being thrown to please the overlords of the league. Beyond that, I am very experienced on the ice, and have had experience in the finals that I could bring to the table. While I might end up complaining too much about the shadow organization trying to keep the Pride down because of my involvement, I will use my platform as a means to let the people’s voice be heard (and to get some great seats to the game)!

While we know that it has bqeen a long haul for us here in San Francisco on a wait for that first cup, I know that this team has a lot to look forward to in our future. We have a strong mix of both veterans and young guns alike and know that we have a roster capable of making the next step, especially as our young players develop. Many of their players have been dedicating their career to trying to bring a cup to this fair city, and they will be getting the wonderful addition of this years first overall draft pick. The lineup will be absolutely start studded in years to come and we know that veteran’s such as Brogen, Bork, Schieck, Moyer, and Reaper and not looking to give up on this team and are looking to do whatever it takes to win the cup. They will use their skills on the ice, and the lessons they’ve learned over the years to mentor the young crop and develop them into an incredible team
