2. Written, up to 4 TPE - Grab Bag: Pick up to 4 Challenge Cup related topics to write about! Each topic is worth 1 TPE. Each answer must be 50+ words.

a. An LAP team that was disappointed in a S63 finals loss is back again to face a TBB team that has been hungry for their chance in the entire FHM era. Who are you taking as a winner and why?

b. Tampa Bay’s top forwards have been absolute power houses on this run, totalling 102 points across their top 6. If you’re LA, how do you line-match against two lines that are on an absolute tear?

c. L.A.’s D pair of Kierkegaard and Kahnwald are maintaining a shocking 2 more GF/60 than GA/60, despite playing more than 21 minutes a game including PK time. If you’re Tampa Bay how do you get around these two? Hope to outlast them in endurance, or look to more depth scoring? 

d. TBB’s roster has racked up many more shot blocks (294) than LAP has (188). Do you see this as a good thing? Is this an iron willed team that’s willing to lay down their bodies to get the job done, or do you think it paints a picture of a team that can’t maintain possession and has to find another way to keep the puck out. Maybe a bit of both?

a. I feel like you have to go for Los Angeles here. They cracked the 100 point mark in the regular season, finishing comfortably first in the league. TBB finished 89th in a bit of a battle with 4 times behind them with in 2 points. Also LAP just had the smoother route to the final. Back to back sweeps and a 6 game series against Chicago. Compared to TBB who needed 5 games for Manhatten, 7 to get past Atlanta and 6 against Buffalo. (84 words)
b. LAP did not feature a single player with a minus in the regular season. They were defensively excellent with solid defending and a great goalie. That story has continued into the playoffs. They don't score as much as TBB, but they know how to not get scored on as well, which is impressive. (53 words)
c. They have both shown to be excellent defenders and if I were TBB I would recognise thoes are the targets to grind down, while trying to be more offensively oriented when other defenders are out on the ice. So yeah they will have to count on scoring coming from the depth. Those top 6 point getters are not helping them there. (61 words)
d. I think it is a mixed big. Clearly it shows a willingness to get down and put bodies on the line, however it also says something about their possession that they have to do that so often. Sacrifising your body like that throughout the entire playoffs will surely start to have an affect on them. (55 words)

3. Written, 3 TPE, Four Star (150 words min.)

Tell me what each of the four stars on the Four Star Cup stands for! Some will say it’s for each of the four divisions in the SMJHL, but you and I know better! What four things are embodied in the SMJHL’s greatest trophy?

Back in my day we did not have a thing like 'four divisions in the SMJHL'. We all know what each star on the cup means. It is a representation of all the things you need to win that trophy.

Star 1? Teamwork. You will not get far without team work. A team who is unable or unwilling to play together will be hard pressed to step up in big moments and bring their team glory. Every team needs a strong bond to get through a long season and longer playoffs to eventually get their hands on the cup.

Star 2? Practise. You do not become a super star without putting hours into the practising the game. All the time spent in gyms, on the ice and diets. All in the name of getting your body to the optimal state to excel out on the ice.

Star 3? Sacrifice. Being in the gym all the time, traveling around. It is a massive sacrifce. Many players in this league have families, wives and kids. Sometimes you will not see them for a whole week or more. It stands for the sacrifices all players make to go out there and do their best.

Star 4? You the player. Look at how far you have come, all those hours of practise, player hard and working hard. You got to eventually win this prestigous cup.

22. Written / Graphic, 3 TPE, Gone Viral (150 words min.)

Your player unexpectedly has a video go viral on social media. Why? Does it make your player look good? Does it make them look bad? What happened and why was someone filming you to begin with? ALTERNATIVELY for a graphic task, show me your player being filmed in their viral moment.

It's not the worst video that has ever gone out there from a bunch of famous people, but it is not a pretty look either. After a disapointing playoffs lose in game 7 against Chicago, the Aurora players decided to go out and have a good time to take their minds off the game. What started out with a few drinks, quickly became a night filled with more drinks, fights and very, very bad karaoke. This particular video that has gone viral is of players Ryuuji Kawashima and Rebecca Montagne. Who decided to do a karaoke number together, the famous Dutch party song. 'Waar is dat feestje? Hier is dat feestje'. It was not only bad, because they both can't sing, but also because it was a dutch song. Just the sheer craziness of the situation, trumped over every other silly thing that happened that night. So ends the tale of the viral video, nobody looked bad, but the world did now know the horrible singing voices of the two Aurora players.
