S62 PT#2: Hit the Ice

Pretty cool idea to have this as a season-long continuous PT, it's nice to see you guys come up with cool stuff like this. Prompt #2 is a little too generic for my liking, I think there is a better middle ground between crazy promps and "just write about your season", but maybe some people like it that way. Alright, to the task at hand... As described in the previous PT, I would be participating with my first player David Winters alter ego as a member of Team Hall of Famer, so this first game is basically the biggest contrast one could imagine: A bunch of legendary players, a lot of them being seniors these days and some actually already having passed away, versus a group of players so young that many of them aren't even allowed to order a beer in a bar or rent a car yet. It's the ultimate test of experience vs hunger, of tactical prowess and skills that have been honed over decades vs explosive physicality, talent and creativity. Ultimately I see my team emerging victorious however and I'm gonna go full boomer here for a second for the purpose of this: I think a lot of young players underestimate how good the legends of the olden days used to be, they see themselves earning TPE at a faster rate and think that that's because they work harder, when in reality these old legends were just as good if not better, while operating in a league and TPE ecosystem that was much different from the one we have today. And given that the Hall-of-Fame team is made up of all Hall of Famers, so exclusively players with both an elite mindset and skill, i see them having the edge against a younger team where the jury is still out whether they will all reach the great potential they undoubtedly have or fall short at some point along the way.
