Hello SHL!

A year has passed since we've had the last S47 Quintuplet Ask Us Anything. And - surprise - we are all still active. More or less.
@Carpy48 @SDCore @bbjygm @hotdog @Julio Tokolosh

On this day exactly three years ago all five of us decided to create a player in this league and since then we've all had quite different careers, different site jobs, achievements, ups and downs. Today you get to ask us questions if you have any and we will try to answer them.

To sum us up, here are some quick notes about our players.

@Carpy48 Stars

Player: Harry Carpet

Teams:
- Lethbridge Lions (now: Newfoundland Berserkers)
- Toronto North Stars
- Finland

Achievements:
- S49 All Rookie Team
- S51 3rd All Star Team
- S54, S62 2nd All Star Team
- S59 1st All Star Team
- S59, S62 John McBride Trophy (won)
- S54, S58, S60 John McBride Trophy (nominated)
- S55, S62 Damian Littleton Tropy (nominated)
- 2K Club (first 2K goalie in SHL history)
- S55 Four Star Cup with Newfoundland (as Coach)
- S61 Bronze Medal with Finland (IIHF)
- S62 Gold Medal with Finland (IIHF)

Jobs:

Memories:
- S47 played first game for Toronto as a SMJHL call-up: first win
- S50 surprise playoff run with a virtually 'dead' Toronto team that was trying to tank
- S52 being part of the core group that rebranded/relocated Lethbridge Lions to Newfoundland Berserkers
- S53 first FHM season with Toronto as the worst team in the league. Many difficult seasons followed being in the Great Lakes division.
- S58 playoff run with Toronto that took us all the way to the Conference finals and ended in a loss against BUF in game 7 (OT).
- S62 Gold Medal with Finland, so far my biggest achievement in the league.
- After the conclusion of S63 (regular season) I'm holding all goalie franchise records for Toronto and the SHL record in shutouts as well as the record for wins and games played (among active goalies).

Memories:
- Hot Potato: tracked and reported on a hypothetical hot potato that got passed whenever the "holder" hit someone. Reported on its activity for a few seasons.
- SHL Fantasy²: organized a small fantasy league where participants drafted SHL Fantasy competitors onto their own fantasy team roster. Went on for about 2 seasons.
- S53: New England had a good run in the regular season and came out on top. We saw this as the start of our window of competition that the rebuild had been building towards.
- S53 Playoffs: New England was knocked out somewhat early in the playoffs by Hamilton. We played well but met up with our main contender, Hamilton, fairly early so we didn't make it far.
- S54 Offseason: New England's core was effectively disbanded via a chain reaction of trade requests. This effectively destroyed the rebuild. Much sad.

Do you want an honest answer? There is one job I want on the site and have for a long time I haven't had but I will DM you if you ask nicely.

A funny answer would be, change sim engines again?

Carpy: Don't think "I might just check this out first for a little bit and if anyone asks I'll tell them I don't know how active I will be". Just go in, don't overthink things too much, be yourself and enjoy it. I probably stayed away from a lot of things in the league early and shouldn't have done that. You should try to build connections early and not two years into your career.

Sorry about the late reply.

bbjygm: Did not notice this until now. I wouldn't say I have any regrets regarding the SHL so I'd probably say, "invest in Zoom before 2020," or something.

If you could travel back in time and tell yourself one thing before you joined SHL what would it be?
