TASK 1: TRIVIA (3/8)
confirmation word: huffingpaint TASK 3: FORGED IN FIRE (6/8) The Philadelphia Forge have found their way back into the finals through no accident. Though they have only made the finals twice, this season and in S69, they have been a consistent playoff force, in a sense. They have made the playoffs incredibly consistently in their team's history, but have struggled to get past the first round until that S69 run. Since then, they have advanced to the conference finals on a consistent basis and have now once again made the finals, losing this time in game 7 to Edmonton. The Forge accomplished this through smart asset management, good drafting, and good salary cap management. They have through some smart trades been able to move up for some players in drafts while also regaining the picks that they lose in those trade-ups through moving their older players they can no longer afford to roster. They also are on the cutting edge of tactical decisions in-game, usually one of the first to find new things, and that helps them immensely as well. (171) TASK 12: PROCRASTINATOR SPECIAL (8/8) The Edmonton Blizzard defeated the Philadelphia Forge 4-3 in the S73 SHL Finals. As a member of the Philadelphia Forge, this is a most unfortunate outcome, however it cannot be said that it's undeserved. The two squads went back and forth between matches, no squad ever winning a home game and essentially rendering home ice advantage useless. The deciding game was undoubtedly the game that went to overtime. Edmonton went up 1-0 early, only to fall behind 2-1, then go ahead 3-2, and Philadelphia evened it up at 3 all just before the end of the game. In overtime, Edmonton was able to take advantage of a 3rd penalty in the period by Philly and slap a shot home, taking game 6 and eventually the cup.
