For #2:

Having been on the Calgary's side for almost 3 seasons now there has not been any downsight to this journey, every single season we have started out rough but eventually recovered from that deficit and turned it into a massive victory, but something that bums me is my time in the Carolina Kraken. In my first season we managed to clinch playoffs, and make it all the way to the final, but eventually lost to the Vancouver Whalers in the finals. That pissed me off very much and that loss actually set a trend on my SMJHL journey. For the following seasons, 3 altogether, Carolina did not qualify for playoffs a single time, which was very sad to see it happen in general because our squad was stacked every single of those 3 seasons, I think I just laid a curse upon the team after having my junior seasons there, because Carolina is still struggling to reach playoffs, and especially to get past first round
