Option 2

Slowpoke had to have someone explain to him what training was when asked about this prompt. Slowpoke is naturally gifted or more likely a little bit naturally lucky. Have you ever seen a fast Slowpoke? A buff Slowpoke? No, that's simply not a thing. Slowpoke wakes up, eats, plays some hockey, and then goes to sleep. That's his lifestyle and it seems to be working out pretty well for him at the moment. When team training and workouts happen Slowpoke will always show up and put in the work but he views those as mandatory team building exercises. And not the exercise that helps grow muscles or build cardio. It was a known shortcoming with Slowpoke and probably a reason he dropped outside of the top ten. So far it hasn't caused an issue at the SMJHL level as Slowpoke has been a great contributor to the Beserkers but the media has already lambasted the Buffalo Stampede front office with claims of a lazy work ethic that won't translate well to the big leagues. Only time will tell and for the time-being Slowpoke will continue to be, well, a Slowpoke.
