S61 PT #5- Legacy
(This post was last modified: 09-26-2021, 04:37 PM by DELIRIVM.)

PROMPT 2- 

My time in the SHL with Daniil Nikiforov is one where I want to be remembered as one of the best players on my team. Someone who put his all out on the ice every night. I don't think that's too much to be remembered for in the league. I think winning the triple MVP crown in the SMJHL was a huge first step and it has made Nikiforov more of a hyped prospect. But now that he's more established as a veteran member of the SHL and the Baltimore Platoon. My goals are to start filling up the stat sheets and be one of the best players in the history of the franchise. I have a long way to go with the people that have played in Baltimore, but I think Daniil can be one of the best ever! Time to keep earning and be a 20 year player! I think longevity and success are what will be super important to being a top player in this league!

PROMPT 2

My goal for my legacy is not at all related to my player, although that success would be nice. My goal at this point is to turn out as many people into this community as possible through the Carolina Kraken. We've done well so far, but with a defined time limit on how long I'll be running the show it's become more important than ever to act in the interest of the league both with turning out as many productive Kraken alumni as well as generating the most good for the league with the trades I complete and the draft picks I both make and don't make. That last bit is critical, when I know there are players that will do good for the league on another team I'll pass on those players to better the league with the idea that I can pick up someone else that's a good fit for Carolina.

Sorry, picking the boring prompt this time (Prompt #2)

Bit of a late bloomer I was with the earnings of TPE and as a result I find myself about a full seasons worth behind the tops of my draft class, maybe even more than that. I've reached the top line playing with(read carried by) legendary players like Tony Pepperoni and Julio Tokolosh and did have a career season. I kind of have to think by now though, with the players I'm surrounded by if I want any shot at HOF considerations I have to be better. Much better. In all honesty I think my legacy on this league with this player when they decide to hang up the skates will be that of a 1st liner that did their job well but will never reach the heights of a super star. Hell, I doubt this player ever gets picked for fantasy lmao. I hope he can hang on and fight regression long enough to see the strong prospect group come up and win a cup with them. 

Sutton might end up just being that guy who topped out in his 3rd year of juniors winning the Ronan O'Keefe with an FHM record 26 points and finishing 3rd in Playoff MVP voting.

I think it is pretty obvious the legacy that Stan Din'desque will have in the league. As an avid Apex Legends player, he will become the best player the SHL has ever seen. His skill set has improved day by day, and so has his online following. His Twitch streaming views, where he goes under the alias "Office_Furniture" as a play on his actual name, averages several hundred viewers when he is online and he's climbed the ranks to be in Master. He's far from being an Apex Predators, but he is a solid player who knows how to position well. His aim always needs work, and if you give him a Wingman he'll be lucky to his shit, but he has brought a lot of viewers to the Quebec City Citadelles games due to his online fame, and he plans to transition that into a line of hockey, and gaming, gear, and also bring fans to the new Montreal Patriotes games in the near future. He has made several friends in the league and there will be a SHL Apex tournament soon, which he plans to win!

I have chosen to select the Prompt number one and with selecting prompt number one I would not drink the super duper good making kool-aid 2000. I would then explain that my goal is not necessarily to make it to the hall of fame and that the goal is to play along side a lot of hall of fame players and have team success. My player already is on track to be one of the primer front of net players in the league and an antagonist of opposing goalies. I believe that Dwight Knight's Legacy is one that will change over the duration of his entire career. Known for being a strong boy that is immovable on the ice starting as a goal scorer specifically geared towards being a power play and over time look to become a distributer with an emphasis on having quality possession and defensive play. I am just now entering my peak and am looking forward to seeing what will happen.

Written Task: Do you take the drink, and guarantee your spot in the Hall of Fame? If you do, what legacy do you choose? How many cups will you win? How many awards? Do you break any records? Design your own induction listing your accomplishments, and flash forward to that amazing day where your name is cemented in SHL history. (150+ words)

Now I could say some cheesey stuff like, I want to win all the cups, all the awards, break every single record, have the most goals, assists and points every season. However where's the fun in there. I have always said that Kawashima will be the ultimate playmaking player. The Nicklas Bäckström who is always there to set up a sniper. Pair me up with a sniper and watch uis get all the points. So I think that is the player I want. A player who wins the best playmaker award, most assists. However not every season though that is just wildin. Let's say a cup ever other season. Seems about fair, give other teams a shot, while also winning enough cups to really solify Kawashima's name in the game. Although Kawashima believes in hard work, so he might not even take the drink and go on his own strength and work his way into the hall of fame.

Prompt 2:

I think Pavel Jeziaks legacy is gonna be something along the lines of an always reliable forward, who can play anywhere from first line to the third line, probably once closer to his career peak he'll be a really good 2nd liner who will have some great seasons, maybe get some first line time in there and pump up those numbers a bit. But probably will not have any crazy seasons where he just lights up and leads the league, unless everything just clicks and works perfectly for Pavel and his line. But i do expect a really solid career, maybe a lesser award or two. And hopefully a couple of cup wins to solidify that he's the kind of player that every team wants to have even if he's not a superstar caliber player that can carry a team by himself. Getting Pavels jersey retired by a team would be one of my biggest dreams come true, or having a team award named after him.

I've played a consistent style of game which ramped up on the move to FHM. Entirely defensively focused laying hits and making blocks forever and ever amen. In FHM, those stats went through the roof and I rode with them. I hold the relevant franchise records with the Jets which is obviously special because they are an original franchise. I was even padding them for a season before being traded to New Orleans. I'm also climbing the all time leaderboards for these records as well, fighting for 1st in blocks and hopping over retired legends on the hits. However, despite being in the 2k club and having these records, I've only ever been nominated for one individual award in my career. I have three 4 Star Cups and three IIHF golds but no Challenge Cup.

I'd like to think I'm building a legacy worth remembering but I'm not holding my breath for the hall of fame when I retire. I'm sure my teammates on each of my teams will remember me, but I haven't spent enough time in the limelight and I doubt I'll pick up any individual nominations as I regress. In the ideal world, Joe can pick me up the Challenge Cups I need to fill out my trophy case so I can at least have the triple gold fully to my name before I'm down to SMJHL level TPE.

Due to the simple fact that I have a couple excellent users with players drafted ahead of me, I expect Ole Olson to be a bit part player in the SHL. He was lucky that the teammate he was drafted alongside chose to be a gritty defender opening up the option for him to play a more offensive playmaking role. He will get the opportunity to set plays up for the incredibly strong core of forwards and generally be a nuisance on both sides of the ice for opposing teams. I don't expect Olson to contend for many awards as he tends to be a bit more of an all rounder than someone who specializes in a particular set of skills that will let him shine in any specific role. That said, he will compete for his team and put on a solid performance on the way to multiple championships for the NOLA Specters. The team that the NOLA GMs have put together is going to be a fierce contender for quite some time.

Quote:PROMPT 2- If you don't understand the previous prompt or that one doesn't sound fun to write about, try this prompt.

Written Task: What legacy do you see yourself creating in the SHL? Hall of Fame? Amazing third liner? Shitty third liner? GM of a cup team? Juniors GM who helped newbies create amazing players? Go crazy posturing your legacy, or at least some wishful thinking of how your retirement post will be received. (150+ words)


The way I see it, my shot has already been effectively shot, as the older a player gets, the worse they do statistically on average. Adam had one very good season in which he was nominated for Playoff MVP, League MVP, and won Best Defenseman. My player was also (along with Bobby Lane) the first player to break the 2300 TPE barrier in the All time TPE leaderboard.

I’ve never won a Challenge Cup, and I fear that as time goes on, even if I do, it will be as an accessory and not as one of the main pieces. For this reason, I think the next few seasons I’ll be looking to win it all and placing performance at the top of my criteria for choosing where I go. It would be very sad to me if I spent 20 seasons in the league and didn’t manage to win the CC once.

My ultimate goal is to make it into the HOF. At this point it feels attainable but I don’t really know for sure.

I certainly want Ryosuke Sato to have a legacy of being dedicated to the team that they are on. Taking inspiration from real life great NHL players and Vancouver Canucks, Henrik Sedin and Daniel Sedin, Ryosuke Sato is going to be remembered as a team-first type of player who sticks with the team through the thick and thin. Although he might not get the cup or might not get the player awards, he will always take the cheapest contract for the team and also put the team ahead of him in every step of the way. I imagine that Sato is going to be so dedicated to his team that if he gets traded, he will be okay with it as it will benefit his old team and help his new team. However, if that is ultimately the case I do see Sato wanting to return to the team that drafted him, the Toronto North Stars, before he retires.

Kermit is still early enough in his career that taking the drink wouldn't step on his accomplishments to date, and as such he would probably do it. The legacy of Kermit Murphy in this scenario would be one that not only lives up to the standard set by his father, Hall of Famer Tig Murphy, but also surpasses it with a dominant career. For this to happen, Kermit would need to accomplish a ton on both sides of the puck, being a thoroughly dominant offensive and defensive force on the back end. A good start would be producing a significant number more points than his fathers by cracking 500+ as a defenseman, and adding in some additional longevity would be a benefit as well as Tig Murphy had a relatively short career. Kermit would also need a lot of silverware, multiple individual awards and a number of championships just to match his father's output. Overall, Kermit has the makings of a physical force of nature with incredible natural talent, so the potential is there to accomplish it with or without the magic Fanta

Michael Scarn hopes to secure himself a place in the Simulation Hockey League Hall of Fame through the product of his individual statistics and accomplishments. Scarn has been something of a journeyman player in the SHL, first being drafted by the Winnipeg Jets before being traded to the Buffalo Stampede. After many seasons with the Stampede, including a Challenge Cup, Scarn moved to their rivals, the Hamilton Steelhawks, in free agency. Scarn then blossomed into a true star of the league, having an MVP season with the team before moving on to the Seattle Argonauts. This proved to be a short stay, as the Argonauts' plans were disrupted by circumstances and Scarn was traded back to Hamilton. Scarn does not have much of a strong legacy with any single team in the SHL, but the sum of all products for himself as a player is how he will be remembered, as a player rather than as a cog in any given team.
