The first line for the up and coming squad rolled up to the rink looking fly as hell. Holy sheeeeit did this team look fucking good.
In goal - Jon St. Ark - Stalwart for the Specters he's a real up and comer.
On defense - Finn Von Murphenstein & Ole Olson. This partnership is absolutely disgusting - von Murphenstein brings the hits the blocks the strength and the smouldering. Olson brings the speed the control the assists and the goals. Absolutely phenomenal partnership.
Wingers - Nikolaj Boyle & Mew Two. 2 big names from S58. Boyle brings that Latvian flair - he's extremely proficient at making coffees for the team, mines as black as night. Mew Two brings almost god like power to the team shredding players left right and centre with his patented psybeam.
Finally at centre we have the one the only Friedensreich Hundertwasser, Austrian centre of the future. Absolute legend, he'll be knocking in goals for fun this season
Friedensreich Hundertwasser looked up at the defender matched up against him and gulped. It was a terrifying prospect, coming up against such a mountain of a man as Lyle Odelein iii.
Hundertwasser and Odelein had a fantastic battle throughojmut the game, built on huge hits, mutual respect and a love of the game. Odelein helped the grizzled vets get off to a flying start in the rournament seeing away Friedensreich Hundertwasser and his team 7 points to 4 (though three of those goals were assisted by Hundertwasser). The young guns huddled up after the game and needed to shut their mouths, they were still agape from the awe of playing a team full of legends including esa parmbourg and Theo Morgan. Hundertwasser lead the team in points with ole Olson leading them across all defensive Stats. Onto the next game now and the young guns are looking onwards and upwards, ready for a fight.
Coming off the ice and sitting on the changing room bench was an eye opening experience for Friedensreich Hundertwasser and the rest of the up and comers. They'd got to take on their idols, the men they'd all looked up to and wanted to replicate when they first joined the SHL.
They'd thought team Hall of fame would have lost a step, that they would be past it, that they would have regressed so much that it would be an easy game. This was not to be, the youngsters under sold their opponents and due to this got their asses handed to them on a plate. After Olson banged in goal after the 2 minute the team thought it would be a walkover. Instead they would be on the end of a ten goal onslaught.
The team should hopefully use this as a wake up call. Never underestimate your opponents, especially if they are filled with legends of the game. Going forward they won't take their foot off the gas.
Our team went down the study study study process ahead of their second game against the grizzled vets. We saw how they lined up and adjusted our lines to attack their weaknesses and defend their strengths.
After they beat us initially they came into the game very big headed. They came out thinking they would skate rings around us. Instead we fucked them up big time, bringing the thunder and lightning and lighting them up like a 4th of July firework.

To celebrate the team went out for steaks. As per usual Friedensreich Hundertwasser went for a bog standard rump steak cooked medium rare with a gorgeous garlic butter.
Ole Olson ordered the tomohawk for 5 for himself and wolfed it down with room for sides.
Finn Von Murphenstein ordered the Wagyu top of the range marbled steak and lorded it over everyone.
Nikolaj Boyle ordered a well done fillet steak and smothered it in tomato sauce.
