a. I would say what is impressive the most about the Edmonton Blizzard of the Simulation Hockey League in the Challenge Cup finals is that they built up a roster and stayed patient for awhile. They waited and everything fell into place. Teams knew they were coming but they could not stop them. They have an overall good team due to being built well. (60 Words)

b. I think I would rather be the young hungry team as the team with the experience may come in cocky and the young and hungry team could take away their sails. I think the Blizzard were built in a such a way the Forge's experience will not matter as much. I want speed and skill over experience. (57 Words)

c. I think the Edmonton Blizzard taking out the powerhouse Winnipeg Aurora is more impressive as the West has been Winnipeg's for a few seasons and they were built similarly to the Edmonton Blizzard many seasons ago. I think the Blizzard used the Winnipeg method to building and were able to beat them. The Blizzard are likely going to be back for many seasons to come just like Winnipeg was. (69 Words)


d. I say the Edmonton Blizzard win due to the young hungry speedy players out performing the experience Forge players. The Blizzard have spent years building for this Challenge Cup shot and I don't see them missing their shot. They have a good team who wants to win and have gone through a lot of good teams to get to where they are so I have faith they do it. (69 Words)

The Edmonton Blizzard won the Challenge Cup! They won due to having more speed and skill. The Forge maybe could have tried to play more physical although it was tough to catch the Blizzard players. It was a hard fought battle, and the Forge just could not grind it out. The Blizzard's speed and skill was too much to overcome. My favourite part of the series was seeing the Blizzard passing the Challenge Cup around and celebrating. It was nice to see a new team come into power especially one that has been building up for awhile. There is a good chance they will be back next season and more to come.
