TASK ONE: TRIVIA +3
Verification word: YOLOSWAG

Also Victor Helstrom apparently.

TASK TWO: +3
This kind of goes against the spirit of this question maybe a little bit, but I often think about what would have been if I hadn’t retired Morley after only 14 seasons. Thinking back on it, I honestly have no idea why I even did. According to the Bojo box, Morley had 37 points in 50 games his last season, which was S28. That isn’t bad, considering he had 37 points in 50 games the season previous, and three seasons before that he only had 33 points. If I could go back and do it over, I’d have milked Morley for all he was worth and retired super late… like 20+ seasons of playing before I retired him. Knowing I could’ve had some SHL records that may even be still holding up to this day and knowing I could’ve made him a household name kind of stings, especially since my recreate player Hans Moleman was a fucking joke and so was the player I made after Moleman.

TASK FOUR: +3
You want to make a movie about me, Chimkin Wing? May I ask why? Okay then. I guess the movie would start talking about Chimkin TENDY’s upbringing, how he was raised in a poor area of Serbia and how both his parents were coal miners, working long and tough hours and leaving Tendy to raise his sixteen siblings all by himself. He was the oldest, so obviously the most responsible. It would follow him to the youth games, playing goalie against other Serbian kids. Then it would follow him to the SMJHL, where he signed as an undrafted free agent to the Anchorage Armada, and the trials and tribulations he went through there before he was finally able to take home a Four Star Cup. It would have a special little snippet in it showing him get a shut out in his first SHL game, then it would go in to depth about his position and name change. Bonus points awarded to the movie for making the point that Chimkin Wing is the only forward in SHL history to post a shutout in his SHL debut.

TASK SIX: +4
a. Hamilton had the easier path to the finals because they’re OP as fuck and incredibly well built to win championships. Pepper in a little bit of “they’re above the law and don’t get punished for things like signing their prospects after the deadline” and it’s a winning combination. I suppose I’m just jealous.
b. To stay good for that long is much, much more impressive than going through a rebuild and being good. Nothing against Texas at all, as rebuilds aren’t always easy and they don’t always work, but to maintain a certain level of excellence through that many seasons is due to incredible scouting and contract negotiations combined with fostering a winning culture.
c. A Renegade is someone who goes against the rules I think? Like sort of an outlaw but instead of being from Anaheim they’re from Texas. A steelhawk is a hawk that’s made of steel, which is stupid because it would be too heavy to fly, but what do I know. Victor Helstrom is some dude whose name was dropped twice during trivia and I have no idea who he is.
d. It’s gotta be Aaron Wilson, right? He had 177 points in 200 games from S49 to S52 (that’s as far as Bojo box goes), he lead the league in scoring this season and he’s a four time Cup winner. Plus he has some personal hardware to go with it (leading the league in scoring, four all star appearances, etc.). So I would say it’s him.

TASK 14: +3
I would say the team that I personally believe is about to bust through and make a finals appearance has to be the Baltimore Platoon. They were very close this past season and just had some bad playoff luck. They had the exact same regular season record as Texas, who is currently in the finals. Had they not had to face the juggernaut that is Hamilton in the conference finals, they would have made it to the finals and probably won it all, in my opinion. Hamilton is the crusher of dreams for everyone, so it’s no surprise they couldn’t beat them, but I know I was worried about facing Baltimore in the playoffs. I think that they’ll win a title very soon. They seem to have some great management who knows how to build a team and knows how to win. FHM is a fickle beast but it will reward them one day.
