3. Written, 3 TPE, New Year New Me (150 words min.)

What is your player's New Years resolution? What aspect of their game do
they want to work on in S69 to help them reach the finals next season?
If they did make the finals this season, is it because of something they
resolved to work on last season? If so, then what's next?

Chris has focused on building his offensive game a bit, while not losing site of what makes him valuable; defensive abilities. For the New Year, Chris’s resolution is to continue to focus on his own growth, but also pushing extremely hard along with his teammates to make the playoffs again after missing them this past season. For Chris, accomplishing his resolution would look like the following: 1. Positive +/- for the first time in his career. 2. League leading defensive stats in Blocks again. 3. Creating more takeaways. 3. Exceeding 30 points. 4. Making it beyond the first round of the playoffs at an absolute minimum. All of these should be easily attainable for Chris, especially with the growth the Grizzlies roster has experienced over the past season, and the strong drafting position they have going into next season. With an extremely strong defensive showing in his sophomore season, and the work he’s put into his offensive game this off-season, there are sure to be some real strides towards achieving all of his goals this next year.

5. Written, 3 TPE, Boat Versus Bull (150 words min)

We aren't talking about some fake hockey league-- I'm asking for real.
Who would win in a fight? A small navy of three living war boats with
eyes, or a herd of 45 raging bulls (15 per boat). Battlefield is your
choice. Create whatever scenario you like to back up your choice of
winner. Tell me how it goes and why it goes that way.

Man, this scenario is easily determined by the battlefield decided upon. For our first scenario, let’s say that the battlefield is outer space. Assuming the boats are simply anthropomorphic and not actually dependent on breathing or intolerant of extreme temperatures, then they have an easy win over the bulls who immediately succumb to the vacuum of space. Now let’s say the bulls have specially made space suits, with little booster jets for directional control, then I think they’re still the losers. With big domes over their heads, surely their horns (their primary offensive skill) are rendered useless. Now, if the boats DO require oxygen or ARE intolerant of extreme temperatures, then I think the bulls might have an upper-hand in that just a couple would need to kamikaze the boats space suits and puncture them. Once they’re punctured, it’s game over, and there could still be several bulls left. Now, if the battle happens on earth, really any surface, I think the bulls are automatic losers. What’s a bull going to do to a war boat? I’ll tell you what they’ll do: absolutely nothing. (184 words)


6. Written, 3 TPE, Too Many Choices (150 words min.)

Next season is Season 69, and that's great and all, but we can't decide
on a slogan. You see, 69 is the funny number, and therefore there are so
many wacky, silly, goofy, little slogans that we can choose from. Which
one is the best? We need your help! Give us a couple of choices for
a Season 69 slogan, and a short explanation of why they're so funny and
fitting for next season!

I don’t know anything about funny numbers, but here’s my slogan: Play both ends of the ice! – This is strictly about playing both offensive and defensive hockey. Nothing more, nothing less. You see, it’s important that when you’re a part of a team, you make sure all your partners needs are taken care of, and it’s important that they take care of yours too. So, sometimes your defensive-end might need a little more attention. What are you going to do? Work with your partner, and make sure that end is taken care of, and you’re completely satisfied. Now let’s say your offensive skill needs a little tweaking. Maybe your zone entry technique isn’t right, or maybe you need to change how you’re gripping the stick. Either way, you need to work with your partners with clear and open communication. They need to tell you EXACTLY how they want you to deke around any obstacles, and really tuck that puck into the net. (162 words)
