1. (+3TPE) Milestones  


2. (+4TPE)  A. I have to go with my boy, Evil Allbran.  Everyone knows that the S60 draft class was superior to all draft classes in the history of the SHL.  Allbran is the pinnacle of the draft class with his point production.  He has single handedly carried the top line of the Forge for a while now, and shows no signs of stopping soon. 

B. Pingu is an absolute machine, I love a good defensive defenseman and he is the prototype all should follow.  He is such a strong competitor on both ends of the ice as well, putting up a point in more than half his games played.  I think he will have a very strong all star game. 

C. Fantobens has been unreal all season long.  Posting a .930 in the playoffs is singlehandedly carrying the Stampede through.  If they win it all this year, he is to thank for sure.  Nothing against the other goaltenders, but he probably deserves this nomination the most.  Hopefully he goes out there and has fun with it.

D. Ty Murphy has been snubbed so many times its unreal.  He is such a great two way player, always near the top of his team in hits as well as posting over one point per game in all of his seasons played.  Why not nominate him?  He is simply the best choice, look at his two rings. 


8. (+3TPE)   Honestly, it is such a shame that hall of fame nominations take all star noms/individual awards into consideration.  The level in which people get snubbed for these awards is ludicrous.  I know, I used to be on the awards board for the SMJHL.  What people put weight into when deciding who should win any kind of defensive award is bananas.  Oh, someone led the league in takeaways by a huge margin, but also had a minus 5?  No fuckin WAY is anyone on that board selecting them for defensive forward of the year.  Who gives a shit about +/-.  But I digress, Ty Murphy should have been selected and its dumb that he wasn’t.  All the other selections were good choices though.  I get why we don’t use NHL games for the simulations, but it would be cool to do so to watch the sims.  Especially with the all star game, you could even let people join to play as their players.  How neat would that be.
