Task #1: Even though Quebec City Citadelles

has the MVP, I have to pick Nevada Battleborn

based on the run they have been on since the middle of the season. They literally have been the best team in the league and are undefeated in the playoffs so far. Wouldn’t be surprised to see them go 12-0 but I have them winning it all. 59 words.

Task #2: If there was a team I had to pick to play on, it would be the Vancouver Whalers Whalers

. They have an extremely bright future,and my good friends Massive Coiler and dirtyboygrease are on the team, or if you prefer Antonio Flusso and Bojack Calhoun. I would hopefully slot right into the 2nd line, with my player on pace to reach the sophomore cap before the season even starts. I don’t think my player would make a big impact, but having another good player on an already stacked roster can’t hurt, and I really do think I would improve the team’s chances at a cup. I almost chose Nevada due to their interest in me before the draft, and the season they are currently having, but I wanted to mix it up because I believe a LOT of people are going to choose Nevada for this prompt, and I don’t blame them. I wish my team had a “smelling salts” budget like they do. 165 words.

Task #4: The Great Falls Grizzlies

are giving back on fan appreciation night next season. If you buy a ticket to this game, you will receive the bear claw combo, it’s a bear claw donut, a whiteclaw and a foam bear claw similar to a foam finger. Fan Appreciation night will be held on our opening home game, and I want to see those bear claws in the air, in your mouth, and then washed down with a whiteclaw. The claws will only come in team colors, but you can get any flavor of whiteclaw that we have in the stadium, which is Black Cherry, Blackberry, and Tangerine. 106 words.

Task #7: Everyone loves a dream team, and at the height of these two teams' seasons, what's the best starting lineup you could form from these teams? There's two ways you can go about this, TPE or Stats during the season. I think since we are basing this on this season, I’m going to go with how players performed this season and playoffs. Our starting center is Shylo Moxii Citadelles

, my pick for the MVP this season. He led the league in goals with 48, and that was 8 more than the next closest person, this one was an easy choice. Now I had a hard decision on who to put on the wings, and I’m going to put center Sophie Bordeleau Citadelles

and center Paul Peterson Battleborn

on Shylo’s wings. This may be a bit cheap, but Bordeleau is a 71 point center who obviously can score at a high clip, but she is a good playmaker to feed Moxii the puck, plus team chemistry is already there. Paul Peterson is a breakout rookie, leading the top team in the league in points, and the clear favorite to win rookie of the year and playoff mvp. Not putting him on this line would be a disservice to the season he has had. On defense we’re going with the best defender in the league, Seamus O’Slapahan Battleborn

, with 61 points in 66 games as a defenseman, and a DGR of 78. This guy might have an argument for league MVP, but he’ll just have to settle for best defenseman. Chad Nickelback Battleborn

will be the last defenseman chosen, who had 49 points in 66 games and was a solid all around d-man. Our goalie is going to be Valérian Sauveterre Battleborn

, who had a 908 save percentage and while he had less work than Justin Time this season, 20 percentage points of a difference in save percentage is too much to pass up. 315 words.

Task #8: How did I perform my rookie season? Amazing, way better than I expected for my first season in the league.I had 57 points in 66 games, which if it weren’t for Paul Peterson of the Nevada Battleborn, I might have topped the league. I not only led my team in points, but I led my team in game rating as well and with a 75 ogr, I am on track to reach my potential. I surpassed my own expectations of me, but when I was taken 5th overall, I think my expectations were higher from the league, and they should be, and I think I lived up to the hype for sure. What I need to improve on is my two way game, and I need to be better in my own end if the Grizzlies have a shot at competing next season, with a measly 62 DGR. I think I can prove how I look to the analytics people if I can improve my defense. 167 words.

Task #9: The Grizzlies made the playoffs, which was a surprise to me, my predictions for this season was a full rebuilding year, but with how the playoffs are formatted, the Grizzlies snuck into the playoffs off the back of a weak division. The Grizzlies glaring problem this season was defense, and I think if this team wants to move forward as contenders, they need a high focus on defensemen in the draft. Our best defenseman TPE and performance wise was Nino Di Giuseppe, who was picked up halfway through the season and he’s a rookie, that should tell you all you need to know. I don’t think we are contenders next season, because our center from last draft class is taking an early retirement, and our first defenseman picked, Neal Newland, has been underperforming his TPE earnings because of real life commitments. If we can get some stud defensemen in the draft, my outlook will change. 155 words.

Task #12:
C: I’ve talked about it a bit already in these tasks, and he made the dream team lineup, but I cannot stress how impressive Paul Peterson’s rookie campaign is, he led his team in points, to a top spot in the league, and a currently undefeated playoff run where he almost 2 points per game, with 19 points in 10 games. If he hadn’t already locked in Rookie of the Year, playoff mvp will definitely push him over the edge. 79 words.
