So this was a tough season for everyone in the SHL. Dealing with trolls online, horrible PR from product endorsements, and on top of that all some minor identity fraud to add to the pile. Are these the worst things to happen to your player this season, or did something unimaginably horrible happen? On the flip side, were there any bright spots hidden in the countless nuisances and problems? What good things on and off the ice happened this season for you?

Zhen Roza had a pretty rough season off the ice. No denying that, with people thinking that he had perished in a horrible accident, identity theft, and even sponsoring a bubble gum that turned people the color violet. But the good thing through all this was, his on-ice production did not suffer. For the most part of the regular season, he was one of the dominant goaltenders in the SMJHL. While at the end the Anaheim team dragged itself into the playoffs, his play was noticed and he was able to be nominated for the All-Star Game. “It was a blast for sure. This is my first ever one and hopefully not my last. It was great to see all the studs from the other teams compete and I'll definitely remember that moment forever”. Anaheim had a tough 1st round exit and it was a hard pill to swallow for many, especially Zhen Roza who had finished the series with a .952 save percentage and 1.17 GAA, and 3 shutouts. “While that didn't end the way we wanted it to end, it was a learning experience plus I found a stray kitten after that game so it kind of worked out”.

Ugh, poetry is so 17th century, we're ditching that prompt. Earlier in the season, I had you flex your songwriting in an SHL style parody, but this time you don't have a song to lean on. You're writing your very own diss track about something SHL related. A player, A team, A GM, anything. You can write a diss track about CW if you want.

Here are the rules: At least 12 lines (and at least 60 words total) but if you wanna do more go for it. I'm not laying out a specific rhyme scheme but there has to be rhyme in it. Be creative! This prompt is not for everyone, if you have a problem with it there are like 15 other prompts I made for ya. NOTE: THIS IS ALL IN JEST; ANYTHING OVERLY MEAN OR MALICIOUS WILL NOT BE GRADED. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED


Yo yo yo, it's your boy Zhen Roza AKA Glove Muffin AKA Hole in Pads.
Coming at you with a Diss track about Championship Week.
It's too long and after all that typing my little fingers get weak.
Leave me alone and let me try to catch a puck
Even if I can’t win and I’m bad luck.
I don't do the tasks that ask me to do graphic
So I write on my keyboard and hope whoever reads doesn't think I'm sociopathic.
The Tasks blend in, and I start losing track
My mind is swirling and starts falling through the crack.
So I need to calm it down and listen to some Jazz
And hope my fantasy team can bring me some TPE with Hugh Jazz.
Looking at the leaderboards I’m dead last.
Better get back to the CW and turn up the radio broadcast.
Back to the mind-numbing, finger-crushing, brain-blasting writing prompt.
Feeling uneasy like taking your mom to prom and getting dumped.
Word to your mother.
Will she go to prom with me?

(Joking Love CW. Love the crew behind these )

What's your prediction for this season's IIHF tournament? Which teams do you expect to do well (or not well)? Which players?

The team I’m going for is the USA. Even though it’s a cop-out, I feel they have a relatively strong team that besides last year's hiccup, they can bounce back and really make a play for the gold this year. Especially with last year's stud Bobby Lane, who I expect an even better performance. They also have great players like the center Xavier Doom, winger Ethan Price, defensemen Pojo Biscuit and Colin Lambert. Of course, they have the long-time backbone in Strom Chamberlain. It’s hard to look at this team and say that they will do bad. They may not be the biggest dog in this fight but they will take a chunk off of anyone else that tries to bully them. The flash that Bobby Lane showed in the last international showcase wasn’t a fluke. He would impress many this year in the SHL as well. The USA may take gold right under everyone’s nose.

16. slash's secret bonus prompt SHHHHHH. Written, 2 TPE (100 words min.)
Luke let you keep the money you stole from him in the heist, and won't tell the authorities. But you have to take him on a wonderful date using the money. How does your evening go? What dining and activities do you have in store for good ol' Lukey boy?

Taking Luke out to a nice date for only half his money. We making it fancy. But we have to understand if we take Luke out we take Rich out. It's only fair. I would pick them up from their places, Luke sits upfront with me and Rich in the back. They can record a podcast while I drive them to our dinner destination. As we get there we would pull up to the McDonalds drive-through and they can get not 1 but 2 things off of the dollar menu (because SHL money won't pay my bills) and you know what if the ice cream machine isn't broken they can have a McFlurry. They may have to split it though, but they are used to splitting rewards. Then we would go to watch ducks in the pond, maybe throw some bread. At this point, they must be tired and happy so I get them back to their place, tuck them in, kiss them on their forehead, and whisper “You are doing great as HO”.
