I predict that the Tampa Bay Bear-acudas will finish first in the atlantic, as evidenced by our strong start of 2 wins so far. Tom Fiddler will have his MVP season, potting 30 goals and 50 assists, leading the team in points, take-aways, and +/-, as long as Zoltan and Petrov can keep up. Phillip Weaver will have an award named after him called "The Phillip Weaver Biggest Schlong" Award for having the biggest schlong in the league. Michael Fitted scores 50 goals and no assists. Kozlov wins rookie of the year, with 25 goals and 25 assists. Joorgstaad dublok wins defensive defenseman of the year by blocking 300 shots even though we dont even see that many shots again. He also has 300 hits, most of them interference. Ambacas Cuddles will finish with 5 goals, 10 assists, and a minus 60 on the season just based on how things are going. Keahi, 25 goals, 5 fights.

buffalo is bad because they continue to pander to the locker room cancer that is known as a-aron hernadivic. all he does is insult his teammates and complain about how little effort everyone puts in to get better, but why put in more effort when the league is already so skewed towards the great lakes? its not like we are taking performance enhancing drugs like the hamilton cheathawks. you could see it in preseason and the first few games of this regular season that effort does not matter in this league because the bottom feeders are so bad that the head office needs to put them on life support in order to keep them from losing all of their players. we would all benefit from smoking a fat blunt courtesy of SHL Kush to mellow out and play some chill shinny each game instead of going hard all the time. its all about having good vibes and chillin in this league because everyone is too stressed about how well theyre doing when theyre just going to lose to the great lakes

From the pre-season games I have two teams that stand out to me that I have two different projections for based on their 7-0-0 records.

Atlanta Inferno: There is no way that they are that good of a team in the regular season. Nothing against Atlanta as they are definitely coming along nicely as a squad in their early years as a franchise, but they're just not nearly at the point where they could be a contender in their conference and certainly not as dominant as the pre-season would lead us to believe. Their pre-season had five of their games combined against the Aurora, Pride and Monarchs. Not exactly powerhouses in the league. They did beat their one off against Hamilton and the LAP aren't slouches but again not a team you think of tearing up the West. I think they will be a middle of the pack squad by the end of the regular season.

Edmonton Blizzard: These guys could absolutely play up to their potential in the pre-season though, as much as I hate to say it as a Dragons defenseman. They did face off against the Barracuda and Pride, twice, and beat them up pretty well, but that's to be expected. What shows they do have the ability to contend in the West is that in the key match ups against Texas, Calgary and twice against the Panthers, they pulled out victories in all those games. Absolutely it would be impossible to keep that 100% win rate against those division rivals but that they were able to complete the sweep against all three in the four games does speak volumes to their depth and abilities.

Overall, the pre-season means nothing, but it is a nice look at the way teams are fielded after the off-season shuffle and sometimes you can get a bit of an inside look at how they will perform in the regular season.

As for myself, I would like to be a little better for the season. Because looking at my game from the sidelines, it seems that I haven't run in my free time, because the pre-season was not the best, but there is work on lineups. I would like this season to be better than the previous one, but that is unlikely, because it seems that I have already spent my best season. Because I am not the only one who develops my skills, there are many others who improve. In the pre-season, my throw was unconvincing, I threw a lot on the goal, but I threw it very unconvincingly. Of course, you need to improve your skills on the ice, but you should not look only at your statistics, you should look at team statistics. Speaking of the team, this season I would like to strive for a higher place in the conference and throughout SMJHL. For the first two seasons I spent with Whalers, we were the eighth team to play in the playoffs, but that wasn't convincing. This season I would like to strive for a higher place than the eighth, fight with the team to be in the playoffs and reach the final.

The regular season is here and, as always, I have my goals and forecasts for the coming season. Although the season has already started, I can say in part that one of my forecasts and desires has not already come true. Personally, I wanted to do this season convincingly, but I haven't done anything worthy in the first games. But the performance of the team is starting to improve, and it pleases us to be able to play like we do with the strong clubs. In general, I can predict this time that the Seattle team will enter the Play-Off games, but my own season could be worse in terms of results. Of course, I hope I can wake up from this fall and start playing more effectively. Maybe I needed more playing time in the majority where I was doing pretty well at the world championship. But all is going on for good and I hope everything will work and get into our first Play-Off games in the club's history.

My predictions.

-Mikkel asmus Sondergard will out perform Bork Lazer once again as is tradition at this point, but he will continue to toss together the 2 cup wins he has with his team carrying his dead weight as if it means anything at the end of the day. Does anyone remember who the 4th liners were for the Oilers during their 5 cup wins? Didn't think so. Lazer is just enjoying a free ride right now and nothing else, this trend will continue.
- Texas will once again finish at the top of the west despite some early bumps in the road, and the eastern teams will down play it again because they need to keep their egos intact that no one from the West could possibly be seen as better than them. Free rent for us really. Look for a texas player to also win the scoring race and still not win any major voted on awards.
Thats my predictions for this upcoming season in the Simulation Hockey League, for season fifty nine.

Fantobens · 04-23-2021, 09:06 AM

I’m going to be better than last season. But the Texas renegades will not match last regular season success. I hope enough improvement was made personally to get that one more hit for championship week. Or maybe they will look at my hits add one and make that the milestone. I don’t know.
You can’t really make any predictions in preseason because players improve, some players go inactive. And there are always trades. So the preseason would be a good indication of how the rebuy season will play out if there was a roster and tpe freeze. But there isn’t. Preseason is just for testing. The first day or two are done with auto lines sometimes.
It meant more with Simon t’s hockey simulator because we simmed fifty games for preseason. But again it only shows how the preseason team would perform. All teams make changes. This has to be long enough now.
I just have to be better. Have to make maybe my last season or partial season in Texas count...

*kenvald* · 04-23-2021, 10:04 AM

As seen in the preseason with my new friend and defensive partner Finn-Rhys we're gonna tear up the league and both be nominated for all the defensive awards. And probably some of the offensive ones as well. So far it's looking decent. I had a good recent sim which gave me plenty of points, and FR is as always consistently producing.

In terms of my team, well, not many exciting results came out of that. But if anything it showed that the battle for the last playoff spot in the Atlantic is gonna be a riveting one. While we didn't get many wins we played really close games against some of the best teams in the league. Showing that we can easily be the team that takes home that playoff spot. If anything this proves that this will be a season completed by a wonderful underdog story. Where NEW snatches the playoff spot with the last game of the season and then goes on a deep playoff run!

I am pretty excited for this season and was excited for the recent preseason because it is Rikki Petrov's first season of SHL hockey now playing up with the Minnesota Monarchs as a third line center. Petrov, who was one of the better playmakers in the SMJHL for Vancouver now takes another step to play in the major leagues of hockey. Petrov's build is a little changed up from his more two-way playmaker days and while he still has similar abilities there, the Monarchs have potentially explored Rikki to be a solid backchecking forward in his debut season.

Minnesota I believe played pretty bad in the preseason, going just 1-6 in their seven games. Rikki Petrov did not shake anything up either going for just 1 point, an assist, in all their games, and had a game rating of 55 which, considering his age, was not bad as it was around average of the other Monarch skaters.

This season will be a rough one as it is definitely hard for rookies to succeed in the SHL and with Minnesota being such a young team it will certainly be a challenge but they are banking on a core growing up together, grabbing chemistry, and becoming one of the better new teams moving forward. Will Petrov be in the Monarchs' plans with expansion looming? I am not sure but the preseason and the upcoming season will tell a lot on how Rikki continues to grow and how he molds around the team. I think the team will play better than they did in preseason and I expect Petrov to struggle still but still, I am excited to finally be in the SHL.

This is a very obvious one, but my prediction based on preseason is that the teams in the Great Lakes division will finish in the top 4 of the conference. In fact, to go even bolder, I'm going to say top 4 in the league. This division is obviously ridiculously stacked. They didn't all show up in the small sample size, but even the worst team, Buffalo, beat out several teams in the Atlantic. Hamilton has been good for like 20 seasons, with Buffalo right on their heels. Also behind the defending cup champions are the ones right before them, the Chicago Syndicate, who continue to be stacked. Finally, the unluckiest team in the entire SHL has to be the Toronto North Stars. A team who should have be deep into their playoff contention only finally got there last season. Their window has been cut short by how long it has taken to finally beat the top 3 teams in the East. In the end, I expect the standings to shake out like last season among the Great Lakes teams, but anyone of them could be the odd man out.

DELIRIVM · 04-23-2021, 12:05 PM

My predictions are going to be pretty mundane to be honest. I already know that being part of the Baltimore Platoon is an exercise in patience. We're a young team with a lot of room for growth left and we'll likely struggle again this season. I believe that we'll have a tough season but end up being in contention for a playoff spot simply because the Atlantic is not very good. Both Baltimore and Tampa are on their way up. Manhattan is on their way down. And Atlanta has a couple seasons of being average before falling off. So we'll likely see a real struggle for the top spot in the Atlantic Division. As for my player, I'm still a first liner for the Platoon and I'm getting some powerplay time. I believe I will see a year of over 50 points and a good amount of growth. Nikiforov is poised to break out in the next couple seasons and I'm really hoping it'll help propel the Platoon into a better position.

I think the one big thing to take from preseason standings wise was the dominant performance by buffalo. Buffalo has always been a very strong team, but they always came second to Hamilton in the views of the general public, they even battled stiff competition with Chicago for a couple of seasons, then Toronto last season. However, Buffalo shows they are ready to play, being lead by an all around strong team capped up with stellar defence, and outstanding goalie play by Doyle. This Buffalo team is not one to under estimate heading into the season. Ill even admit that I picked Hamilton to finish first in the league, but at this early point of the season I am afraid that I am already wrong.

I also wanted to briefly talk about Casino, and how preseason affected that. Casino has made things much harder this season. Taking the date from preseason and other test seasons, I think we will see a lot of people lose money this season.

I am going to be doing some predictions for my SMJHL team, the Newfoundland Berserkers. Overall, we have had a strong start to the season but have not been getting the results on the board. The main killer right now is our PDO, so by the end of the season, I expect this to even out. I expect our shooting percentage to get better by the end of the season, leading to more goals and a lot more wins. As long as we can carry some positive momentum into the playoffs, we'll be golden. I also think that our Berserkers will be challenging the top teams in the SMJHL for the Four Star Cup, but we all know that it's always a grind to get there. I am hoping that our team can also challenge for the top spot in our division because we have a very strong group of guys this season.

sulovilen · 04-23-2021, 01:48 PM

My prediction could be something very specific, like that Chicago will start off by an at least 8-game and Minamino will be scoaring at least a goal a game during that. But I'm not really a fortuneteller, so I'll go with something less boring. I'm predicting that I, Walton Stromberg will be way better defensively compared to my rookie season. I put in quite a lot of work to round out my two-way game. I've spent time and money to be physically more ready to play at the SHL level, as well as improving some important skills, such as checking, balance, strength and puckhandling. That -41 record kept bugging me, and I decided to do something about it. There's plenty of time to imrpove the offensive skills. We're still coming off a heavy rebuild, and I have to play the long game. I will be a more defense-minded player and will end up with maybe less points, but better defensive numbers.
