Prompt 2:
Turn back the clock to July 2014. I was once a wee lad who had stumbled upon an interesting new website named Simulation Hockey League. "Oh wow, this could be interesting. Maybe I'll make an account". I went and created a player and noticed that the SMJHL Entry Draft was scheduled to take place a in a few hours time. "What perfect timing, I'll get to join a team today." So I waited for the draft. Little did I know, it would end up being the longest draft in SMJHL history. A few hours and 12 rounds later, we were nearing the last few picks. "How am I still on the board? Are these people still active? Does no one see I'm in the draft thread? Helloooo". Sadly, no one drafted me. Big L. Sat there for hours. Fortunately, it didn't take long for St. Louis to send someone to message me. I later signed with them and made it my goal to show up every single player in that draft class. Ended up being picked 10th overall to West Kendall. A long SHL career later filled with many ups and downs, I decided to call it quits in S40. Now that player sits in the Hall of Fame, so I guess I recovered.
