If real life versions of all 18 SHL team logos were entered into a fight, which would come out victorious and why? Which would be the first eliminated?

okay well this one is interesting, there are a handful of teams that have things that dont really die or can't much and that is the Forge, as they are just a machine and with no operator they are nothing. There is also the Aurora, which is just some mystical lights and can't really be killed off. Dont forget the Northstars, or even the Specters - These teams would not be able to enter. So for the sake of this task I would eliminate all of those teams as did not finish. Out of the remaining teams I think the Barracuda would probably be the first die as the are stuck and confined to staying in the water. The other teams could obviously take advantage of this weakness. I think the winner of the battle royal would have to be the calgary dragons, I don't see anything that would be able to kill a dragon. It would ultimately come down to the two flying birds, the inferno and the dragons with the dragon being the last one standing.

Which SHL or SMJHL team was the best team to not make the finals this season and why?

Well I am glad I do not have to write about my own team not making the finals again, but I also do not like writing about the team that I ultimately have to go with, the Hamilton Steelhawks. The Steelhawks were a favorite to once again make the finals, and ultimately win the cup. They boasted one of the strong rosters, as well as a GM tandem that has made this trip before and has the experience of changing the lineup to get the most out of them. I believe going into this series Texas had a 33% chance of winning the series based on test sims, meaning Hamilton was two thirds the favorite.

a. Which of these teams has stronger offensive firepower?

b. This is Texas’s first cup appearance since winning it in S36, while Buffalo is recovering from 2 recent final losses to Hamilton. Which team will have a bigger chip on their shoulder entering the finals.

c. Which of these two teams' brandings do you prefer? Take into account colors, logo, name, location, and anything else you consider relevant.

d. Would you rather have to spend a long weekend hanging out in Dallas or Buffalo? What would you do?

B. I think Texas has the bigger chip on their shoulder, Buffalo was a favorite with Hamilton to make it to the finals, however many people did not expect Texas to make it. Many people think Texas is not a good team because they do not play in the great lakes, and being in the finals and ultimately the chance of winning would be huge for the team.

D. Hmm, I guess it really depends what is planned. I think spending it in Texas would give me more of a different experience, however It would be great to catch a Buffalo Bills game and the fill experience of tailgating for the game. If it was just for the weekend my vote would be buffalo, to catch a football game and maybe experience Niagara falls.
