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?

b. Nash Topalo and Seamus O'Slapahan were only defencemen picked in top 10. Were they two best options this season? Should there have been more picked early on?

c. Which of the teams could have better top line (center and two wingers), WhiteFuzz with Johnny Wagner-Svenson - Viktor Hargreeves - Antoine Beauregard or JRuke with Erik Bergmark - Derek Martin - Aksel Fiske? Why you think they are better?

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?

e. Why should YOUR player have made the all star game, and why should you be the last man in? (If your player did make the all star game, tell us why they were picked.)

A. I am going to say that Valerija Serapin would have been the best addition to the all-star rosters based on my knowledge of the league at large. My logic for this being on account of their name being worth the most in Words With Friends, and also understandably by that being the longest name of the three. What does that have to do with simulated hockey? Something something random number generators using odd systems.

C. Well either team could have the better top line as the chaos of the simulation we play in combined with all six being strong players means it could easily go either way. Now as for what team I think will have the better top line I am going to go with WhiteFuzz as I don't recognize any of the names, but they have more names which I think will help tilt the random number generator in their favor for the same reasons I listed in my previous task. Also I like the last name Beauregard more than any of the last names on the other team which means given I have no knowledge of hockey means I am betting on that for no real reason.

3. Written, 3 TPE, The Teammate One (150 words min.)

Tell me about your teammate who made the all star game! Who are they, why were they an obvious choice to make the All Star roster, and what do you expect from them this ASG? (If more than one of your teammates made the game, pick one of those players other than yourself. If you are the only player on your team selected for the all star game so far, write about your team's candidate for last man in instead.)

In this point task I get to talk about Alexandros Mograine who has surpassed Dave Heinrich to be the superstar center of the Chicago Syndicate according to my incredibly minute knowledge of the team and the league and hockey. Honestly given that I cannot exactly tell you what has made them surpass Dave other than just having more TPE and all that, but what I can say is that Slicer is a superb user who is far more deserving of recognition inside and outside the sim than myself. Being both incredibly supportive as a GM despite the difficulties involved in herding the cats that make up the Chicago Syndicate, and an enjoyable teammate to spend time with in the locker room he has been a pleasant part of the Syndicate for quite a while. I am glad his player has performed well enough to get him some recognition and I choose to believe it is because of how nice he has been as a user to his team. Now as for what I expect from his player in the all-star game I have zero expectations because I don't actually know what to expect from any game when it comes to hockey.
