++3 TPE - Milestones

The Whalers history is a long and storied one but today we are going to focus on the shortlived GM tenure of user "kit". Kit was appointed the Whalers GM and was quickly met with controversy. Many Whalers alumni expressed displeasure at the appointing of kit as he was not a whalers alumni himself, and rather an outside hire. Kit would quickly prove the haters correct, but not for the reasons they thought. Kit went inactive rapidly and left the assistant gm with all the work. Luckily kit appointed a great co gm in JHS and he did amazingly filling in.

Forever would be playing still for the whalers if the universe was correct as he would have been first overall, but if that wasnt the case he likely would be playing for the Scarecrows. His relatives both played for the crows and his family has a long storied history there. He'd slot in easily on the second line and I'm not sure things would be too much different stat-wise. However Forever wouldn't have made the friends he has made with Vancouver, and maybe eventually would live up to his name. Because now he knows that vancouver is the place for him.

Forever is a player that you would expect to be a pure scorer based on his skillsets. He has an incredible offensive read as well as a killer shot. However just looking at his skills would do him a disservice. You may look at Forever in the locker room and say to yourself "he's too small to do anything other than play offense" and you would be dead wrong. Forever isn't afraid to throw around the body and risk his health to block a shot. While his offensive skillset may be elite, the physical play is not something to be slept on. The biggest concern with Forever is his commitment to getting better. As the name implies he will be a risk for teams to draft. His family has a history of falling off after a few seasons because they don't want to put the work in. Even though his great grandfather was a first ballot hall of famer, the rest in his family line has disappointed to an extent. But I wouldnt be surprised to see a team take a flyer on Forever in the early rounds. The risk could be well worth the rewards and this reporter thinks they will be.

Forever is spending his offseason back in Japan. Going to soba bars and eating as much as possible. He's trying to put on weight for the next season. Last season when he hit players they barely flinched, the stat might have happened but the effect was low. If he puts on weight the hits might matter a bit more. He will also spend some time learning to ski in vancouver. He loves the city and the fans and learning to ski has been a lifelong goal of his. Hopefully it works and maybe it will help with his skating a bit.

Honestly CW has always been more of a chore. These multiple optional prompts are really nice though. I do personally wish milestones werent a part of this cap, as its a nice reward for doing well in certain areas with your player. I was the SMJHL PT head for a bit and I know it can be an absolute pain to come up with interesting prompts. So I like the idea of letting people do the one prompt they really like for 800 words if they want, it the option of that, or basically doing 16 mPTs is awesome. If I had to say one thing i wish we could add is bring back the trivia or word scramble. I know it was basically free tpe but it was nice to have especially if youre losing interest in the site. Having that extra free 4 tpe or whatever was really nice.
