Written Option 2: Your player is put in charge of helping plan the team Christmas party! What sort of games do they plan? What food and drink does your player decide to bring for the party? How does the party go with their teammates? Does anyone do anything wild at the party? If so, who? What happened to lead up to that event?

Nothing like a Office Christmas Party for some awkward shenanigans. Let's start it off with an open bar, I feel like that's a key staple to getting everyone in the Christmas spirit while also being the perfect recipe for disaster. For games of course White Elephant is the perfect gift giving game for any holiday party allowing everyone to bring some fun and impractical gift to pass off onto someone else. Gato of course will be bringing his famous Tuna Casserole to the party, and for his White Elephant gift who doesn't love a Ball of Yarn! So how wild does the party get? I think it's stays pretty tame for the most part, until things appear to be winding down and someone accidentally lights the Christmas Tree on fire with an ill-placed candle. The entire team rushes out as the sprinkler system goes off, and they sit outside laughing over the whole ordeal while freezing wet in the snow.

As someone who has made a career on being the defensively responsible player on the ice so his teammates can focus on the offensive side of the game, Axel Kirby is the nice one who plays defense and tries not to let the puck get in his own net. It's not an easy task in OT, especially when the game is quick and every single movement and decision matters, but Kirby makes sure he's responsible in all areas of the ice.

Of course Kirby loves scoring goals and winning those games for his team, but in an ideal world, Kirby is the one who makes an incredible stop in his own end with great stick play, taking the puck away from an opponent and then springing a teammate on a breakaway for the game winning goal. Everybody goes into the holidays happy (at least for our team). However, win or lose, family and friends time during the holidays will cure all.

To anyone who reads this, I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Hopefully you get to spend it with those you love! (The PT was already 150+ words prior to this last line).

I would do what any self respecting professional hockey D man would and bend the rules to the extreme. Dump and chase? Run interference cause it won't be called. Player gets around you? Are they a 3rd or 4th liner - wack their shins enough to annoy and throw them off - a star player? Slash at their wrists 20x because its not like the refs will call it likely. If there is a battle in front of the net - cross checks their lower back and kidneys where there is no protection 20x but just make sure to not knock them over and you won't get a penalty. After that they should be black and blue enough to steal the puck and skate down the ice to score the winning goal as they are now too scared to crash the net on your team thus opening up the path for you to crash theirs for the cross crease goal to seal the deal.

The game is in Seattle, the first time in forever the team plays a meaningful in late december and you're asking Henri Losanov if he wants to be nice or naughty. Fuck these Dragons, the shots on goals are 44-4 in favor of Seattle, the fans want a save Henri. Henri being clutch for once in his godamn life would be a christmas miracle. 3 on 3 hockey is a bout to begin and you just know the Solberg twins are about to play the full 5 minutes, what better time for Losanov to be useful and challenge them to a fight. Use some insults like you ain't in Quebec anymore, you can't get carried anymore should do the trick. Henri gets his ass beat and here comes the savior Bishop Van Apeldoorn coming in relief and stopping 97 shots in OT and getting the Argos the W with a sick snipe from the blueline. Henri gets waived after the game, the biggest gift in Seattle history

Oh woe be thy name,
for it is yet another game
in the season of ho ho hos
between these two old foes.

In green are the surging Stampede,
who Hamilton hope to impede.
Though for an hour they had tried,
When the horn sounded it was tied.

Through two they were sublime,
yet now it was overtime.
For in the third they were lax,
and allowed the hawks to come back.

During the break Lakemore declared,
as he raised his fist in the air,
"Just be sure not to concede,
and I'll give us what we need."

With confidence he took the ice,
he didn't need to think twice,
for it was he, you would bet,
who'd put the puck in the net.

And quickly that chance came,
an open shot to end the game.
With a crack, puck met stick,
he'd be ending this quick.

Gasps echoed through the crowd,
he thought it would be loud,
but it was a lump of coal,
he'd shot wide of the goal.

His expression had turned to dismay,
as Hamilton had cleared it away.
When Buffalo surely had won,
instead the hawks had a two on one.

Lakemore turned to give chase,
a look of shock on his face.
Rather than being praised as a champ,
it was Lahey who lit the lamp.

Written Prompt 2

Yea if I'm in charge of the Christmas party there has been a huge mistake. I guess I'd start with one of those gift exchanges, Secret Santa or the one where you just pick a number and grab a gift? I'm not even sure what each person would get. I'd probably have eggnog, that's a holiday drink I think? Maybe some bread and chips, something to dip the chips in. There would be a tree with some decorations, probably Christmas oriented. People like turkey so I'd order one of those, or maybe I'd try to hunt one as long as everyone is okay with that. Honestly it sounds like a terrible time, probably would be for all involved. Maybe I'd have some drinking games for the people who drink, or a smoking corner for those people. Probably a few random games with money prizes, those things always go over well. The whole thing would be over in an hour hopefully.

#1:

Here is my poem. Did I rhyme bored with board? Absolutely. Do not judge.

T’was the game before Christmas, the score tied at 4,
The game is tight, each playing in a war.
MattyJ hits the ice, the clock ticking down,
Determined to claim the crown.
A pass comes his way, right off the board,
He snatches it quick, he is not bored.

He cuts through defenders, swift as a sleigh,
Dodging their checks like he’s flying away.
The goalie stands tall, the pressure immense,
Matty winds up, his arms are tense.
With five seconds left, he fires a shot,
The puck finds the net, and a win is caught!

The horn blares and the crowd starts to cheer,
For a win to finish off a great year.
MattyJ smiles wide, his teammates all scream,
A holiday miracle for his team.

Back in the lockers they all drank beers,
Preparing for a party on New Years.

1: While it's nice to have delusions of grandeur, especially this time of year, Jefferson knows that on a team as deep as Seattle, he's hardly the guy to be getting the gaming winning goal in such a high pressure situation. That's not to say that he couldn't do it, because he totally could, but what seems way more likely is that Jefferson gets control of the puck after our stellar defensemen have broken up the opposing offense and then powers it through the neutral zone, and makes a sweet pass through the defender's legs over to Stavros who drains it for the game winner. It's not as flashy, and maybe Stavros gets the best look on the play, but Jefferson really just lives for the assists, he can't help it. Christmas is all about giving and there's nothing he loves more than giving his boys big scoring opportunities when it matters the most. Merry Christmas to all Argos (and the rest of SHL).

It was a Christmas game unlike any other - our team had fallen down 4-0 early in the first due to a serious of unfortunate events that unravelled into pucks in the back of our net. We talked at the first intermission and acknowledged that it was the last game before Christmas break so it was time to leave it all out on the field. First came two goals in the second period, and with that came the belief that we could absolutely win this game. Then a minute into the third we broke loose for a breakaway and that was 4-3. 12 mins left in the 3rd and a puck took a fortunate bounce for us and all of a sudden it was a tie game. They were spiralling, we were flying and we knew that the game was ours, we just had to get it across the finish line. We looked destined for a shootout, and then with mere seconds left in OT, a puck hit their defender on the top of the helmet, ricocheted into the rafters, came down without hitting anything and landed in the crease where Rasmus tucked it? Lucky? A Christmas miracle? Neither. Just some good ol' hockey.

Written Option 1

The stadium is packed for the game before Christmas. Families are together for the holidays and are scratching their necks fiending for some entertainment at the local professional hockey arena. As the throngs of bloodthirsty fans get to their seats, belligerent drunk on eggnog, their bloodshot eyes focus on Boogan McGillicuddy. He is wearing his Santa hat on the ice during the anthems, and the smell of holiday spices emit from his body along with his usual musk of Parliament Lite cigarettes. Boogan knows what the crowd wants to see on this beautiful holiday and it is a Scarecrows win.

The game ends tied up at 4-4. The players are tired and the fans are frothing at the mouth, demanding victory. Boogan knows it is time to secure the dub in OT. If Chris Cringle can deliver all those presents in one night, the Scarecrows can win this game. Stocking full of coal be damned, Boogan turns into an absolute psychopath in overtime. High hits, hip checks, and personal insults are all on the table. Zac Peters dishes up a pass to Boogan like it is a plate of cookies and milk for Santa and Boogan buries it in the back of the net. Christmas has been saved. Their thirst for victory satiated, the fans file out of the stadium and head home to get more drunk and watch Gremlins on DVD while Santa flies his sleigh overhead, wearing his favorite Scarecrows jersey.

When Billy Herrington is put in charge of planning the team Christmas party, it’s bound to be an unforgettable evening filled with fun and festive chaos. Billy’s goal is to foster team bonding while delivering plenty of laughs. For games, he sets up a White Elephant gift exchange, a twist on Secret Santa that lets players "steal" each other’s gifts. This guarantees plenty of banter and rivalry as players eye the best presents or intentionally swap for gag gifts. Billy also organizes a holiday-themed trivia contest, focusing on hockey history and Christmas pop culture, and turns part of the team lounge into a curling rink using hockey pucks and brooms for a playful nod to their sport. The food and drinks reflect Billy’s thoughtful yet laid-back nature. He brings comfort foods like turkey sliders, mac and cheese bites, and festive desserts like gingerbread men and peppermint brownies. To drink, there’s spiked eggnog, cider, and a DIY hot chocolate station loaded with toppings. The party is a hit, starting on a cheerful note but turning wild when Jiggle E Puff attempts to juggle ornaments as part of an impromptu talent show. This leads to an unexpected karaoke battle, with Billy stealing the spotlight as he belts out an exaggerated rendition of All I Want for Christmas Is You. The night is filled with laughter, camaraderie, and memories that the team carries into the season. Billy’s knack for creating a fun, relaxed atmosphere cements his reputation as both a leader and a team favorite.

Graphic Option 2: Lily is about to party with Defensive Teammate Pork Tenderloin, but she might be getting a little hungry....

Personally, I have never had much luck doing Christmas parties. I mean, I have been left to my own talents at times because my folks liked to take trips out of town whenever Christmas came and they would leave me here since I did not have the interest to follow but I only really focused on making sure I would have some good food so I would not starve while also having some classy options.

To be honest, I suppose I would treat it more like a barbecue. Get some meat to roast, always remember to have onion bread, and get some beverages, maybe some Christmas ones as well. Invest in a panettone because that would go well with a Christmas event, even more so here in Brazil. But yeah, that is just a thought, I mean... I would probably do well but I would require assistance and all. Gotta see if folks can eat what I have in mind and all.
