8. I think that both of my teammates Will Tomlander and Shadow Fenix should make the all star game, both were rookies this season and put up insane performances on one of the bottom 3 teams in the league. Tomlander had 78 points and 34 goals as a Season 74 rookie, and Fenix had 35 goals and 76 points as a Season 74 rookie. Sure they didn't put up 90+ points like the forwards that have 800+ more TPE than them, but they deserve to be recognized for their insane performances as rookies. Since they played on the Seattle Argonauts and they were surrounded by other rookies and aging veterans about to finish their careers, I don't think their performances have got the respect they have deserved so far. Last season the rookie scoring leader finished with 72 points, both of the Seattle rookies had more points than that this season while getting similar ice time opportunities as last season's rookie scoring leader. I would put both of them in the all star game over some players that put up similar or slightly more point totals but have much more tpe and established SHL careers. It is more impressive to me that a rookie with around 1000 applied tpe outscored a player with 400-500 more tpe playing on a better team with similar tpe level linemates.

13. I think that Chicken's data sets and posts are amazing and was a great series to read throughout the media spotlights. I think the league is in a fairly healthy spot when it comes to SHL teams picking players from junior teams. It could always be improved on for sure but, if you pick up players from a certain team and want to ensure longevity it would make sense that you pick up players from their junior team that they have bonded with or are friends with. I think it would be great if players from every team were drafted equally but some teams are better than others at developing active players that stick around, not all teams are equal in that regard. So no matter what changes, I think it will stay similar.
