2. Written, up to 4 TPE - Shiny Grab Bag: Pick up to 4 topics related to the All Star Game to write about! Each topic is worth 1 TPE. Each answer must be 50+ words.

a. Which of the three Montreal players would have been best addition to either of the teams?

d. Grzegorz Brzęczyszczykiewicz and Sir Devoir were picked with back to back picks and thus both teams secured their started. Does either side have advantage on net? Back up goalies were picked lot later, do you think they can play role in the game at all?

a. I think of the Montreal players who did not make the all-star game rosters and were relegated to the skills competition, the best choice would have been Jussi Mutou. As a youthful S73 draft pick, Mutou had a monster rookie season with very little help, coming off the back of a four-star cup run. To put up 59 points in 66 games for the Patriotes in your first year is no small feat, and it would have been interesting to see what they could do in and all-star game setting. - 90 Words, +1TPE

d. I believe that JRuke has the edge in goal for a couple of reasons. First of all, Sir Devoir faced much stiffer competition all year because their division was stronger than Grzegorz’ was. Second of all, Devoir is a more season player and arguably at a higher level right now. Thirdly, Devoir has a backup in BASE PACK who is starter quality himself. In fact, some would say PACK is at his best when the games don’t really matter. - 79 Words, +1TPE

9. Written, 3 TPE, Players Tribune (150 words min.)

A popular format of media that has made a resurgence recently due to certain dedicated media writers, The Player's Tribune involves writing from your player's point of view in the 1st person. Write your Player's Tribune about your player's season. How do they feel about their results? Did they achieve their goals? Are they venting out frustration? Are there any moments of the season that were memorable?

Hi Tribune! This is the first one of these I’ve done other than some really short form stuff and chirper, but the brass at the Forge said the league was interested to hear from some of us players on how our seasons went. I figured, since I was a fresh-faced rookie out there for a strong Philadelphia team in S76, that I might be a good candidate to write one of these quick season reviews. My season started well. I came out of the gates absolutely flying especially for a young rookie. I had some big games against teams like Montreal and Manhattan and fierce battles against friends and foes from the J like Emil Karlsson and Cal Juice. I was feeling good and having fun. For a short time I was near the top of rookie scoring, despite being one of the youngest and least experienced players. As the season went on, I began to try some new things, and make my game more multidimensional. That coincided with a bit of fatigue that began to set in over the long campaign. Its hard to play 66 regular season games against fully grown players! My productivity declined and I ended up last on my team in scoring by forwards (although I still beat every defender – take that Flusso!) Between fatigue, puck luck changing, and my usage evolving, im kind of disappointed with the way my season finished, on the offensive side and its definitely given me something to think about heading into my second season in the show. I am happy with 47 points on the season, but really want to work on my consistency in S77. In the new season my draft buddy Leonard Wood will be joining us – I’m really looking forward to more internal competition, showing some growth, and having some fun in this new campaign for S77. Look out SHL! - 314 Words, +3TPE
