Written Option 1:

Earl is no stranger to the playoffs seeing as the two seasons he has played the Mutes have made it (this year by the thread of his flannel shirt). But he still made it no doubt. With that being said he has never been nervous nor does he ever get nervous about playing. He's very confident in his play even when mistakes happen. He understands the game at a molecular level and knows mistakes will happen in a game of fast speed. With his deep knowledge of the sport of hockey he would sit very well up on an analyst desk. He could quite possibly be very loved in this position but he does not really enjoy the thought of having a filter when it come to these things. His mouth gets him in trouble with his GM, Teammates, and other opponents all the time. Earl would talk about their current matchup against QCC. A very tough team who did extremely well this season. A matchup that will test the mutes as a team. He's confident they can win everyone just needs to be on their A game. Earls performance has been subpar in the playoffs but he seems to be playing a more defensive game and playing hard minutes. He may not be an offensive threat this year in the playoffs but his plus minus is showing hes on the ice at the right moments.
