As it sound like strength is one of the more important physical attributes in this sim, Lemo will take the blue pill, giving him super strength but leaving him blind. He is fairly confident that he can survive that way, having already honed his senses of sound and smell on his many long trips to wilderness where he has often tried to survive with as little of any kind of technology as possible.
So with some practice he will be able to read the play on the ice by ear just as well as before, discerning the volume and angle of various sounds of other player’s skates on the ice, as well as the rustle of jerseys and banging of sticks. Of course he will have a much tougher time of it during actual games in front of noisy crowds than he will in practice sessions with just his teammates, but an integral part of having such an acute hearing also has to be the ability to ‘tune out’ all the non-pertinent noises and Lemo will also be training that part before he actually takes any of those blue pills before actual SHL games.
