During the S59 rookie SMJHL draft, Pasta the Turtle is drafted to the Vancouver Hockey Club instead of the Newfoundland Berserkers. After a brief and aggressive standoff with the club brass, Pasta goes inactive and focuses on his Football career in the ISFL. As an ardent supporter of animal rights, he is unable to abide by their offensive team name. The Vancouver Hockey Club never recovers from the bad publicity they receive from cow-towing to the business interests of big whale oil, that they have difficulty retaining prospects and never win a four-star cup. Newfoundland, meanwhile, is still completely dominant, win a four-star cup without Pasta, although they do so with a little less style. The machine was too strong and nothing derails their success. However since Pasta never gets drafted to Edmonton, the goon squad never gets assembled in its entirety, Sota never becomes interested in being a co-gm when Keygan retires, and the franchise folds.

The story of the first turtle to become a professional hockey player is an easy pitch for most studios. Couple that with intertwining storylines and appearances from other major players, and it is sure to be a blockbuster. An unassuming reptile gets chosen in the 4th round of the SMJHL draft, and quickly becomes a major part of the Newfoundland locker room. He is majorly influenced by his GM team of ham and juke, as well as his captain Sopath, he rises in the ranks of leadership culminating in a 4 star championship. He gets drafted to the Edmonton Blizzard with his team mate and on again off again love interest, Bfine, who rises the ranks of management within that same club. A love triangle happens as he chooses pasta over his other romantic interest allowing Emeril to be drafted to San Francisco. They complete the trifecta by competing for Japan at the IIHF. Throw in a couple of hours of anti-specist activism and you have a sure blockbuster [167 words]

There is a setting in Fifa where when you score a goal, a player is sent off. I think a similar rule should be instituted wherein the winning team of the challenge cup has a player random have his contract rescinded and be forbidden from resigning to that same team. If we want to be generous, you could allow for a choice - either have your contract rescinded, or have your contract doubled. The GMs would need to work around their new inflated contract through trades etc. I think this is a reasonable strategy to not over-penalize success, while also adding some opportunity at parity. Realistically something needs to be done about how testing happens. Seems to take some of the skill out of the game when someone with lots of time on their hands can brute force a championship. Don't blame Hamilton for doing it, but kinda wish there was a way to circumvent that. [155 words]

well as the newest member of Japan, how can I not call for the 3 peat? While they will have to make up for some of the deficiencies caused by Pasta the Turtle on defence. I have nothing but faith in nhamlet and sota's ability to guide the ship home, creating a !!HF dynasty. I will predict that Canada and Britain have a stronger showing than what they have recently put forth. I think one of them will fall to japan in the finals, with the other picking up a bronze. Personally, I think I might put up some numbers as a shot blocker. [104 words]
