1- Ups & Downs 3 TPE
Quite a crazy season it was as multiple disturbances off the ice certainly had an impact on Tokkes play on the ice. Especially come playoff time. The season started off scorching hot scoring 5 points in 3 games filling in as a 3rd line center for the Colorado Raptors. Given that early success & his top PK minutes and faceoffs taken, Tokke has been furiously working on his faceoffs this offseason. Even though he is a winger those defensive faceoffs wins are crucial to winning and losing in such a tight knit close league. The season ended on a positive note with the Raptors winning their division once again while Tokke just fell short of his 100-100 blocked shots/hits ratio goal he was shooting for. However, all the turmoil from off the ice incidents finally caught up to him, and my lord it was an absolute shit show. Granted being the top defensive forward specialist playing an Uber almost god like talented forward group on the Armada doesn’t help. But nonetheless, after an extremely up & down season things are looking up and onward.

2. Pokémon- 3 TPE
So for my approach Im going with a bevy of players leading various SHL or SMJHL teams, whoever has better sounding names really doesn’t matter. And then deciphering whether they are a Pokémon, gym leader, regular boring trainer etc.
Leading the Platoon would be Karl Krashwagen. Sounds like a gym leader that has stew & fighting type Pokémon. Camping out blocking your way in the frozen tundra of the later levels of Pokémon games, ‘think…the route right before victory road,’ representing the blizzard would be a Pokémon’s trainer named Johnny Shuffleboard.Repping the North Stars is the most obvious electric evolutionary form of Zapdos I have ever seen. None other than Rusian Zaporozhets. Wonder if he hangs out by power plants. One of the few team name player name combo that actually kinda works well. The Kraken are represented by Aleks Blixstrom, which definitely sounds like a newer gen ice and steel or fairy some weird combo type Pokémon.

We're adding 2 teams to the SMJHL this season. Do you think we should keep the current SMJHL playoff format of everyone makes it? Or is it time to just take the best 8 or 12 teams and let em duke it out? Defend your stance

I think it’s a great idea to expand the SMJHL and incentivize making the playoffs and not being one of the few teams to not make it to the dance. Given the current system (through no fault of HO or the league in general, stupid FHM) a team can have 5 wins on the entire season and still make the playoffs. While that’s great for some new users to get some extra playoff time in it can also be discouraging getting clapped by the better teams continuously. Having the best 12 teams make the playoffs and fight it out for champion I think would be an absolute boon for the entire league.

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

Championship week oh man how I dread it, think I gotta get one of those PT passes on credit. Took forever to write these rhymes, waited until the last day, hopefully whomever reads this gives me a passing grade. Procrastination might as well be my middle name, & because of that this soliloquy is really kinda lame. But who cares in reality this is all fun & games, Play your cards right & end up in the Hall of Fame.
