Jukka has a really terrible memory. It must be from the few concussions he's gotten in the course of his career, but he has a difficult time recalling faces, remembered dates, and in general just remembering certain events or things that need to be done.

Disisde Dayudie is absolutely terrible at being liked. Wherever he goes he gets shunned and disliked. He is known as a LR cancer and wherever he goes, the team gets hated and never wins any awards.

Off the ice, Joorgustraad DuBolk's main weakness is the fact that he has a hard time getting over his fears, especially of roller coasters. With him being 6'8, he's always afraid that he'll hit his head on a bar, decapitating him.

The only thing Darnell Johnson is bad at is giving up. And also respecting personal space, but that could also probably just be seen as an extension of refusing to give up and surrender when someone tells him to please take a step back. Social distancing has been... a challenge.

Despite being a hockey star, Steve Harrington has always had trouble with the ladies. When he was in high school, he dated a girl named Nancy who dumped him for the most whiny and annoying dude in the whole town. He didn't even play hockey. After that, he tried to date a girl named Robin who rejected him because she claimed to "play for a different team". This confused Harrington as he had no problems dating someone from another team as long as they kept their on-ice conduct professional. One of the biggest barriers to dating for Harrington has been his six children. Of course this is a sacrifice he is willing to make. Harrington has sought advice from teammate Andrei Kostitsyn due to his ability to be dating a new girl seemingly every week. Unfortunately the advice was short and altogether unhelpful - "be Andrei".

The Hair actually made a Tinder profile just before the SMJHL Draft. He was relatively unknown back then, so he didn't expect much in the way of matches. But now, 4 seasons later? Still nothing.

Maybe we should check out a conversation to understand why.

Off the Ice Luke Thomason is a terrible card player. On the plane rides between teams, card games is always a good past time for the Rage players. but for Thomason, he likes to read in the back instead

Top Ten List of things Ethan Duncan is bad at

Ethan Duncan is good at hockey, but other sports not so much. You would think the hand-eye coordination required to deflect a puck would translate over to baseball, but he can barely bunt the ball 4 feet in front of the plate. At least he is fast enough to beat out a throw if need be.

Duncan is also bad at directions. One time he attempted to drive to a friend’s house near his hometown in the northern Virginia suburbs and wound up in D.C. instead. Another time, he nearly drove into Okanagan Lake in Kelowna because his GPS told him make a left onto route 97, but he went left too early.

Duncan likes to go to clubs, but is a bad wingman and often brings home the girls himself and leaves his buddies behind. I guess this is why he plays wing as he does like to be the center of attention.

Duncan likes to rush the enemy in all the first person shooter games and ends up dying quickly every time. He then decides to cry wall hacks and aimbot a lot in voice chat, embarrassing himself even further.

Duncan is a great decision maker on the ice and uses his positioning and vision to make plays. But, his decision making off the ice is something left to be desired. Once he saw an ambulance flying by him and instead of yielding completely, he decided to follow behind so he could beat traffic. Unsurprisingly, he was pulled over by the police and cited for it after being chewed out for it.

Duncan is also really bad at creating top ten lists and only managed five this time. He would count this one, but he’s also not good at counting for some reason.

Commander Shepard has always been really bad at saying goodbyes. Whether it’s a normal good bye, or a see you later goodbye Shepard can’t help but say “I have to go now” incredibly awkwardly.

I can not shoot a basketball for life of me. I am a decent runner, strong bodied tall man who can block and rebound like Taco Fall, but for whatever reason if I have to take a any type of basketball shot that is not a free throw or layup (even then, the odds are 50/50) you already know it’s either an air ball or back board

Unfortunately for Minamino, while his talents at putting up numbers has been quite impressive over the last couple seasons, the thing that he struggles with the most is his time management. It’s affected all facets of his life to the point that he’s developed quite the reputation amongst family, friends and the team.

It’s completely peculiar as to how this problem became a thing for him. In most other aspects he appears and presents as a normally functioning young gentleman. Whoever, the moment that there’s some sort of deadline to be met, then you would have easily won money if you wanted to be the over in terms of how long it would take him to complete that task. For example, when it comes to family, even small tasks that his family that ask of him, such as picking up some tickets to come watch him at his games, maybe being the family tech support in troubleshooting a lot of the problems with his parents computer, home internet, the dreaded printer...all of these things need to be reminded upon him numerous times because if it’s not in writing and set with multiple reminders, it’ll be completely forgotten.

When it comes to friends and meeting up, there are always jokes and memes about how there’s always one friend you need to tell that events are 30 minutes earlier than actually are, because it's bound to be another moment for them to show up late. Unfortunately for the couple times that Minamino amazingly and surprisingly did choose to arrive on time aka early, he decided to make use of his extra time, maybe do a couple errands in the area...suddenly he’s late despite having been the first one there. Unfortunately the constant jokes and shaming of the expectation that Minamino hasn’t changed even though he has slightly improved in that aspect. It might be that while he has a streak or two or three events in which he does show up on time/early, it only takes the one where he’s left everybody waiting for 30 minutes that maintains the cycle of his negative rep. Even for this COVID world, you’d think that taking out the whole need to commute and get ready etc etc would make things easier. Weekly Avatar watch sessions? Late. Tabletop board games night? Late. Stardew Valley multiplayer? No show.

Now for the team, you’d think that something as important as being able to show up on time would be important for the guy since there would be serious repercussions from not respecting the team’s time and the coach especially. It probably hasn’t been as big of an issue as the coach also suffers similar from the same lack of time management and tardiness so he’s kind of lucky in that regard. At this point the team is considering sending him off to a specialist or as a subject for research in the time deficiency field. Thankfully he's got the whole team behind him making sure he shows up to games on time.

Literally takes the whole team, they've got this system figured out about who's turn it is to watch him.

Believe it or not, A Jobin is just so terribly awful at cooking. Although he would beg to differ, his crunchy spaghetti is not delicious, nor is his al dente cake.

LPLL is absolutely awful at video games. He always gets his ass kicked by all his teammates in chicago. To make matters worse, he still has a big temper, so keyboards, tv screens, and controllers constantly have to be rebought. This is why LPLL cant afford a whole years worth of training

Well... Coloring probably. Cale can't stay in the lines to save his life. His coaches have been working with him after practices, but he just hasn't seemed to be able to grasp a couple concepts like how to hold a crayon or rip a single page out of the book.

Hubert is fairly well rounded on the ice and but has some glaring weaknesses in the real world, reducing his ability to function as an adult outside the rink. Growing up in a small town, he did not really have to worry about navigating the streets of a big city and as a result Hubert tends to struggle with “street smarts” and basic city navigation. This was a real problem upon arriving in Anaheim, as he would often get very lost while trying to orient himself with the new city. This also made many of the new experiences in the big city quite daunting and Andrews found himself struggling with activities that are frequently taken for granted by most. These included things like not knowing to look before crossing the street, not to eat the candy on the sidewalk, and not to wander around dark alleys late at night. He’s gotten better but still hasn’t quite figured out revolving doors.
