Player Prompt:

Videl has been waiting to get back on the ice since an ugly first round exit in last season’s playoffs where she felt that she did not put up much effort. One thing that has haunted her all playoffs, is the lack of any defensive viability, so she increased her psychical game in order to force more turnover from opposing skaters. The next thing she worked on is reconfiguring her offensive game too, as the Toronto media often badged her for an "underperforming" season where she slightly underperformed on expectations coming into last season. She feels ready to improve on where she left off, as the adrenaline fills her body, and she’s ready to make a huge impact on the team this season, and fix up any issues she had in her game last season, and prove everyone and the Toronto media wrong and to prove that she is the future of the Stars.

The season opener event for the Manhattan Rage is a no brainer: we're going to rage all night, win or lose. All beers are just one dollar, and there's no limit. Hot dogs are free, but only if you also buy a beer. Kids can come and are encouraged to, since everyone is going to need a DD by the time the night is over. We'll have multiple giveaways throughout the night for various events during the game, such as first hit, first goal, second hit, first penalty, third hit, so on and so forth. The prizes will all be (you guessed it) more beer. If we win, it'll be a night to remember for everyone involved. If we lose....well, hopefully we've handed out enough beer that everyone can forget. Anyone that passes out in the stands will have to aid with the cleanup effort after the night is over. (150 words)

This is a big season for Blouin, he has a lot on his mind. Up until now the team has had him playing a very defensive role and he's done great but he's always considered himself a two way d man and he has worked towards having the skills in both ends. Up until now the team has really told him to focus on defense, but after his performance on team Canada during the round robin where he led the league in points as a defenseman, it is clear that his game has improved enough for him to play the role he was hoping for. On top of being in his desired role Blouin should be hitting his peak performance age. With all that going on it's clear that Blouin would have a lot going on in his head, is the team becoming his to lead? Will his offensive performance live up to his expectations or will he let everyone down?

You’ve been playing hockey nonstop since mid-September, and suddenly the season is over. Exit meetings are done, and the final team party of the season is planned. What happens next?

Most often, the last party is a complete free-for-all regardless of location. Sometimes a player will host at his house. Other times the team will head out for a nice dinner. About the only guarantee is that whatever money is left in the team fine fund will be spent that evening. And then some. The bar tab is always impressive. As much fun as the party is, there’s always a chance that a teammate gets off the rails. And that’s what you worry about: having to take care of a friend instead of being able to enjoy the festivities. Thankfully it doesn’t happen often. But the wild-card teammate is always in the back of your head.

Provided that things go smoothly at the party, the next order of operation for most players is packing up for the trip back to their offseason home. And this aspect can vary widely. The more ingrained a player is within a city and organization, the more time they might spend there in the summer. For players that choose to drive back to their offseason homes, logistics can be a nightmare. Many have to rent a trailer. Book hotels. Figure out what to do with family pets while on the road. Not to mention how to keep kids entertained if they’re riding along.
