8. Written, 50 to 200+ words. The Teammate One
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 instead.)

The Seattle Argonauts were represented at the All-Star Game by centerman Shadow Fenix. The second-year player led the team in scoring last season, notching a commendable 32 goals and 66 points in total. On a team which sometimes struggled to put the puck in the net, Fenix was a consistent contributor. He was the leader on the powerplay, scoring 13 goals and 11 assists to lead the way with the man advantage. He also added another 2 goals and 3 assists while playing on the penalty kill, showing that he was able to capitalize in all situations. Add in a 55.9% winning rate on faceoffs, and a healthy 52 takeaways and you can see that he performed very well in other areas than just offense, he is a well-rounded player. I hope he will have fun in the all-star game and maybe even get a goal or set up one to show that he belongs on the same stage as the other stars of the league!

Most people would be exited to win an award. Make a case for your player to win an award. If you cannot make reasonable argument, even very biased one, for any award your player should receive, you are free to suggest adding a new award that your player would be competing for.

I believe my player AT-AT Wøllker has a reasonable chance to win the defensive defenseman award of the year for the SMJHL. In Season 78 it was his third season playing for the Great Falls Grizzlies. As a capped player, he played on the top pairing so he got lots of ice time against the top opponents every game. He had very good defensive stats which were a big contributor to the Grizzlies being the best defensive team in the entire league. The Grizzlies allowed the fewest goals against over the course of the season. Wøllker himself really shone in the advanced stats department. In fact he had the best Goals Against per 60 minutes of all players in the league, who played the entire season. With a rating of 1.8 GA/60 in a league geared towards offense, this is a great stat when you consider the league average is above 3. His Shots Against per 60 rating was also very good, 26.6 was the third best in the league. He was also ranked third in blocked shots for all players, with 232 so that shows his willingness to prevent the other team from scoring. He does get a lot of penalties but a lot of those minutes ccome from his four fights and a misconduct, he is obviously more than willing to drop the gloves and protect his teammates from bullies so that should be a plus for his consideration. There are obviously some other players that had strong seasons defensively so I can't say that Wøllker is a lock to win this award, but his play was good enough, in my humble and totally non-biased opinion, is that he should definitely be one of the nominees.
