1: (3) This season was one amazing roller coaster ride for myself and the Calgary Dragons as a whole. What started out as a terrible disaster, turned into on of the best out of nowhere comeback stories that almost went all the way to the SHL Finals until a game 6 loss to Chicago ending the Cinderella run. I will admit that I fully planned on retirement after the horrendous start our team had. I felt I was unable to keep up with all the young superstars anymore and was a detriment to my teammates. I decided I was going to give it more than I felt possible in my last games, and suddenly things started to correct themselves. I had one of my best seasons ever and now I have decided to give it one more round again. Who knows, maybe I have more than one season left in these old bones. (Or maybe I just don't want to leave and someone is going to have to drag me away with force.)
5: (2) If I were in charge of what happens to the playoffs with 2 new teams being added to the SMJHL, I would keep the every team makes it format. I feel that it makes the league more exciting and also makes new players more likely to stick around, even if by just a small margin. I also don't see a better format than what is currently used. Changing this format to fix a problem that doesn't seem to exist seems dumb to me, and therefore I believe we should keep it the same way as it is now. If anything, maybe we could change up the way seeding is determined. 6: (3) Another SHL season has come and gone, now it's time for the players to dawn their home Countries team colors and play for National pride. This time around I feel a few things will be different compared to last year and I am looking forward to seeing it all play out in person. First we will discuss who I believe will have the biggest turnaround. Canada is the most obvious answer here and I wouldn't bet against them going all out and winning it all after such a weak showing last time. They still have all the talent to be the best and I believe they will be fully focused on showing just how dominate they still are. I feel like Latvia will be at the bottom looking up as the last place finisher this year based on the division they find themselves in. I predict Canada wins Gold, Sweden wins Silver, and Norway wins the bronze in an exciting matchup with the USA. 13: (2) First off I want to congratulate the Buffalo Stampede on finally winning the Championship after so many years of going all the way just to fall short and choke in the finals. Now is the time to choose who I personally feel was the MVP in this seasons Playoffs. Like many season past, there are so many great choices, but only one can e given the honor of the best. My choice for Chicago is Martijn Westbroek. He lead the playoffs in points and was a huge factor in getting to within 1 win of bringing his team the victory over Buffalo. For Buffalo I have chosen Aron Hernadivic as the overall pick for my Playoff MVP. His play was out of this world amazing and he deserves all the credit. 15: (3) Verification word: done 17: (3) S60 Milestones Total: 16/16 |
