a. The salt special: Do these teams deserve to be here? Or were they gifted a trip to the finals through puck luck and bullshittery?

b. Buffalo has been here many times in the past 20 seasons, this is only the second (I think I'm too lazy to check) time for Chicago. Which is more impressive? The continued dominance of Buffalo? Or the solid couple of runs Chicago has made despite the team only being 15 seasons old?

c. Everyone's a critic: Nitpick one thing about either team's logo, jersey, rink design, goal horn, or general site demeanor.

d. Who is the best player to play for either team? Is it a current player? Retired? Traded? Make your case.

a. Yes, these teams deserve to be here. As much as I'm sick of seeing Buffalo in the Finals I can't deny that they are a talented team that deserved their place in the Final and eventually the Cup win. Chicago has become a force as well and will definitely be in the next few as well I'm sure.

b. Chicago. While their free agent and trade acquisitions have stirred the pot a bit, they have had the harder time building the team that would get them to the Finals this time around. Buffalo has the star power but at this point it's just boring to see them in the finals. They have made some solid picks like Hair but I have to give it to Chicago.

c. Chicago's goal horn using the haha doesn't sit well with me since it's something that was established in Newfoundland. I'm hoping the team will find something else that they can use for their horn but I have to say that Good 4 U is an excellent choice for the song. They just need a better intro.
56

d. Martin Westbroek has been a force every season for Chicago and shows no signs of slowing down. Definitely hard to say that anyone else is the most impressive player there. Buffalo has a ton of stars but with Hair's goals in game 7 I'm sure it's safe to already start calling him the best to play in Buffalo.

Pokemon! Everyone loves em, and if you don't, you didn't have a childhood. Or adulthood. Anyways, let's imagine all SHL and SMJHL players are now pokemon. Assemble your team! On top of that, what is your strategy to navigate the POKESHL? Try to get the strongest pokemon and become champion? Catch all of the possible players and complete your pokedex? UwU Breed them? Catch low level juniors players and train them? Or become a gym leader, helping others on their path to greatness? I'd love to hear your approach.

There are already plenty of players in the league that may not change if everyone was switched over to Pokemon. Having connection to Manhattan and Maine I think I could assemble a solid group of Pokemon-like players just from these two teams! Duncan The Walrus turns into a fierce Walrein. Juni Panda becomes Pangoro, Melvin the Moose turns into a Sawsbuck and Adelie de Pengu becomes an Eiscue. Those three off the bat alone start a fierce ice-type team I'm sure that I could make a run for the league with. My strategy would be to train these four to level 100 even if it took days of training. I think my skills as a coach would benefit well here as we plan training regiments for each Pokemon. We could then cruise through the threats of other trainers or gym leaders and eventually take over the world! Along the way I'm sure we would find some others to join the team as well.
