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

As always, the playoff format for FHM will always make this question easy. For the SHL, I would be surprised if anyone answered anything but the Hamilton Steelhawks. They're one of the top 3 TPE teams in the league, have won half of the Challenge cups in the FHM, and made two of the other finals. Not to mention they were the best team in the league this season by 10 points, and had the best goal differential by 30 goals. They ran into the same red-hot Kavanagh as Buffalo did, and they were easily the best team not in the finals. For the J, I hope I don't sound too biased by saying NL. We were the #2 seed in the playoffs (though admittedly were 3rd in the league in points), but had the 2nd best goal differential and were arguably the best defensive team in the league, with a league-low 151 goals against. But sadly due to FHM one of us or KEL was going to be left out, and KEL was too strong for NL to move on.

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

I think picking Dallas here is going to be the popular answer considering it's Buffalo, but I've also spent far too much time in upstate NY for an entire lifetime, and I've never been to Texas. I don't know if there's anything specific I would be looking forward to, but a quick google search later I would say I'd visit the aquarium, natural science museum, and I would probably wouldn't miss up the opportunity to experience an NFL game at the impressive AT&T stadium, despite having no strong opinions on the cowboys one way or the other.

Welp, you waited until the last day to grind out your CW and the CC finals are longggggggg over by now. congrats to [TEAM], woo! Reflecting back on the series, who gets your vote for series MVP? Make the case why this player deserves it over any other.

The vote for series MVP is a relatively tough one for me, and realistically I could see a few people on TEX getting the award. I think the conversation has to start with Kavanagh in net for the Renegades. He put up an almost impossible 0.940 save percentage during the finals, and let in nearly half the amount of goals as his counterpart Doyle did. Doyle did have to face slightly more shots per game than him, but his play was such a huge difference maker in the series. There's also a tough choice among TEX forwards that I could also see getting this away. Watcher had a (tied for) series high of 3 goals and 6 points, as well as approximately 4.7 GF/60. Kvalheim continued his elite two-way play he's been known for throughout his career, with a series high 21 SOG, 17 hits, and an impression 55 CF% with a 1.7 GA/60.

Quote:14. Graphic, 3 TPE - The Procrastinator Special!

Welp, you waited until the last day to grind out your CW and you also like doing graphics instead of writing. That's cool, too! Create a Series Recap broadcast graphic - the contents can be whatever you want, but your graphic must list both teams and at least 3 stats for each.

This is a 'matchup graph' from the finals between TEX and BUF, with each bar indicating which team had the advantage in that stat during the 5 game series (with the actual stat numbers on the margins)
