The playoffs are soon to be upon us (or upon us now depending when you're reading this) in the SMJHL, and all 12 teams in the league will be battling hard to get their names engraved on the Four-Star Cup this season, regardless of whether they had the best or worst regular season record. What are the key parts of the game that your team has to focus on in order to have success in the postseason? This PT has options for if you wanna do it before your team plays in the playoffs or after their round one series is over, choose whichever you want!

Written Option (Pre-Playoffs): Talk about how your team is looking going into these playoffs, and what they'll have to focus on / who will be the key players for them to make a deep push for the cup. (150+ words)

Written Option (Team Eliminated Round One): Talk about what went wrong for your team during their round one series that led to their elimination. What lessons can they take home from the series for next season? (150+ words)

Written Option (Team Wins in Round One): Talk about what your team did right in order to win their round one series, and what the key factors/players were in them advancing to the next round. (150+ words)

Graphic Option: Make a playoff preview chart for your team showing at least 3 of their strengths and weaknesses. Must include a player render from the team and the team's logo.
