+03 - Task 7
If we were still in STHS, I doubt we would be at the point where we are expanding once again in the minors and the major leagues. I know that the VHL still runs it, and seems to still be alive, but from being very very semi active in the VHL, I think that the number of attributes here just makes it so much more appealing. So many choices, while it makes it more complicated, it is also pretty cool to not have literally one attribute for defense as opposed to now having a full section just for defense. And then there is also the hack / whatever you want to call it, with 99 scoring, 40 passing, which if we still had it, would have eventually led to the downfall of the league because having meta builds is never fun. While there is the thing of, if people never heard of FHM, then there is no problem with STHS since no one knows there is something better, I think ultimately its been good to make the switch

+02 - Task 5
To be honest, at first I was not really a fan of the playoff format cause it really gave no incentive to trying in the regular season, but the more I think about it, it was actually a really smart decision. It is the minors, should be a time to have some ince introduction to the league and ultimately have some fun, and being out of the playoffs for the around 2 weeks I think playoffs takes place for, is ultimately a very bad thing, and will not be useful for retention. Hopefully playoffs don't take even longer with more teams now. I do think 16/20 teams in the SHL making it, is not good at all, but thats a totally different thing.

+04 - Task 12
1. I think Buffalo has been a top team for a while, from my limited paying attention to the SHL to which, I don't think it would be fair to say that they got here unfairly. Their team is obviously doing something right, so that is good for them. Chicago I believe won a cup a few seasons back, so they aren't a stranger to the finals, and deserve it as well.

2. I don't think anyone really has any other answer other than Buffalo's increased dominance. I do appreciate Chicago having those good runs, but I wouldn't consider having that more impressive in the slightest over Buffalo constantly being near the top of the league. But at least for Chicago, being pretty good from starting as an expansion team is good.

3. Buffalo has a bad branding to be honest. Green and yellow is a horrible color scheme together, especially considering the hex code that is also used on it. I'm also not a fan of their logo, and while it is not too bad, I would not personally say that I would want to have that.

4. smh my head, I have no idea on the history of each of these teams. I do remember Monkey D. Luffy as a top forward for a few seasons, so I think that they have been impactful for the Stampede, and well as Evok's goalie, Elizabeth Doyle, who has been a constant presense on the team.
