Option 2

I do agree that a goalie that gets hot at the right time can give am average team a shot at the cup. But also a well balanced squad only need average goaltending to get the job done. For Henri Losanov who is currently starting for a rebuilding Seattle Argos, there is no pressure which makes things easier. You allow a bad goal? Well that sucks but it's not the end of the world as most games you are the underdog anyway. At this stage it's all about only getting better, getting experience and executing what you work in practice. There are gonna be some night Henri will face 40+ shots on net and being a wall out there. And the next game he will allow 3 goals in 10 shots. Is it overconfidence from a previous performance? Maybe. This is a young d-core playing in front of him, dumb mistakes will happen. As long as learn from it not much else to ask at the moment.

A Seattle Argonauts short horror film would start with a player, likely fictional for the purposes of entertainment, being brought into the GM's office. It is there that the team's front office staff inform the player of the worst news imaginable - he had been traded to the Winnipeg Aurora. The words of the general manager would fade into a dull noise as a high pitched ringing sound drowned out all meaning to the words, as a close up of the player's face showed the beginnings of a complete psychological collapse. The film would follow the player through unproductive conversations with his agent, repeated travel and visa delays, and other setbacks as the player continues to lose his grip on sanity upon facing a fate worse than death. To make matters worse, his first game with the Aurora was against the Argonauts in Seattle. Winnipeg puts. the player in the starting lineup, where he was booed relentlessly, as the final straw breaks in his mind. As the camera pans from the ice, down the tunnel, and outside the building, we hear screams, commotion, and eventually see and hear the sirens of police vehicles approaching the arena. In the final scene, the player is led out on a cart, strapped and wearing a Hannibal Lecter style mask. The Aurora logo has been violently ripped from the jersey he wears, and blood coats his face and chest. He cackles maniacally as he is loaded into a vehicle to be locked away forever. Fin.

Option #2

Starting as a defensive player in his SHL career, it's no surprise that Toasty got along very well with his goalies. Being someone who would put it all on the line to make sure that some shots wouldn't make it to the goalie by blocking as many shots as possible was a fantastic way to support his keeper. Toasty would always make sure to be checking with them throughout the game too and offering praise to keep them focused and out of their head about any goals that may have gotten past them. It's extremely important to make sure that they are focused on the game and not in their heads or everything could get out of control. While the forwards are more likely to try to figure out how to get the puck in the back of the other net, Toasty feels like it's just as important to make sure their goalie knows they have the support of the team either by diving in front of shots or by being a friendly teammate.

Option 1:
Today was the day, Furious Chicken finally got the chance of writing a nice horror script from some moment of his ice hockey career, and he did not need to think long before having decided the moment, or maybe less a moment, and more a part of his career, his SJHML career to be specifically, the getting to the semi-final against the Maine Timber in his very first season with the Yukon Malamutes, and then losing the semi-final in his first season, to getting to the semi-final against the Maine Timber in his second season with the Yukon Malamutes, and then getting to the semi-final against the Maine Timber in his third season with the Yukon Malamutes, to finally in his 4th and final season, with the Yukon Malamutes maybe not being as strong as during the previous 2 seasons, they got to the semi-final, and finally it was not against the Maine Timber, but against the Newfoundland Berserkers, and once again, the Yukon Malamutes lost. With Chicken’s whole junior career being marked by being on a strong Malamutes, and losing in the semi-final with 4-2 for 4 seasons in a row, 3 of which against the same team. What better script can you have for a horror movie.

Option 1

for the halloween promo, i’d make a haunted arena movie. it’s about a team stuck in the rink after a late-night practice, and weird stuff starts happening. lights start to flicker, doors are slamming shut and shit, and they realize they’re not alone. the arena’s haunted by a former player who never got over losing the championship. he roams the halls, looking for revenge, targeting anyone who wears the team’s jersey.
i’d cast myself as the one trying to talk to the ghost, maybe use some voodoo stuff to communicate with him. one of the goalies could play the skeptic and by the end, he’s the first one getting haunted. i’d keep it mysterious, with lots of eerie moments like pucks moving on their own and ghostly skate sounds on the ice. we’d probably wrap it up with a final showdown on the ice, ghost vs. team. turn that bad guy into plasma or something with our slap shots

The team came up to Demir Bellona to ask him to help them out set up the Halloween movie night and as the single player to have been picked first overall three times in the league, he felt his position on the team was important. But maybe the PR people thought he had time on his hands since he's been shit on the ice so far this season. So it wasn't with any resentment in his mind that he set out to pick a dark, violent, psychological thriller movie for Halloween. After looking through multiple lists on the Internet to narrow his choice, an idea came upon him. He talked to some random people on a message board to help him plan the perfect movie. The idea was to edit multiple cliffhangers of various successful movies into one, but without the payoff. While the idea was unconventional, the payoff would be greater when seeing tons of people annoyed and angry after watching the movie.

WRITTEN 2:

As a player, you want to do whatever you can to help your goalie prepare for the day of a game. For us, it's all about hanging out, having our routines and putting time into ourselves and our team. We all do things differently, but some of us are the same. Some guys eat specific meals at the time, and some need to be alone, listening to music, practicing lots or letting loose with some footy before games. It kind of all depends. Here in Texas, it's all about fun. We're a loose group. We're helping him practice before the game. He could be stretching, getting limber with some football, and practicing his glove hand in the back rink. We're always practicing and looking for ways to get better. Plus, by helping him, it also helps me, and that's super important. That's what it's all about here in Texas, and I guess that's also why we get such incredible results.

HELP GOALIES. THEY'RE GOOD.

Written Option 1:

Niclas Sundqvist has an idea. Everyone knows that movies that start with "the" as part of the title always are a great success. See "The Lord of the Rings", "The Avengers", "The Room", etc. So what he will propose is "The Rage". It starts out in a small sleepy little Canadian town that is filled with hockey loving inhabitants. Then suddenly a series of murders are revealed, slowly over time more and more are uncovered and no one in the town is spared. One day, the a local police officer notices how all the murders have been hockey related. Heads cut off with skates, brutal beatings with hockey sticks, suffocation through puck... It turns out that the coach for the team, a beloved man who turned up and got the team to turn around. Spiked the team's sports drinks which made them perform much better in the games but also slowly filled the players heads with "The Rage".

For the Halloween promotion, Grindle really opened up to the world, coming up with a scary, haunting idea. “Game Seven” takes viewers deep into the haunting side of competitive sports. The film would center around a hockey player haunted by his past failures in a critical Game Seven, where every mistake he ever made on the ice comes to life, personified as ghostly figures taunting him. The monster is his worst self—an unrecognizable, twisted version of him that whispers every insecurity and failure into his ear as he battles for redemption.

Grindle would cast himself as the protagonist, though, obviously, as he has never failed anything ever, he would be playing another character that is not him, forced to confront his inner demons and fears in a dark, empty arena. The movie would capture the terrifying mental side of elite sports, resonating with fans and athletes alike, but also with players who fail, so not grindle.

Ubba Lodbrok, center for the Philly Forge, of the simulation hockey league, formerly played for the Anchorage Armada of the SImulation Major Junior HOckey League, and a member of the Finnish National Team during the Internation Ice Hockey Federation tournaments, knows a thing or two about horror films. He's a big horror film stan, and loves all the categories one could choose from. However, for Philadelphia Forge's horror film, it had to be a full team affair. You couldn't get away with doing a riff on films such as Saw, which is really just a few members. Instead, they chose to do a riff on I Know What You Did Last Summer, and called it I Know What You Did Last Period. This is where all these supernatural events happen during select periods through out each players previous season. For example, Base Pack's stick was replaced with a literal Twig. Tony Soprano's smelling salts were replaced with Gabaghouls. Gnabe Dabson's classic gnome hat was replaced with a CTE prevention helmet. Ubba Lodbrok's beard was all of a sudden glittered and surrounded his entire head. Yeah, it got weird out there.

Being a goalie is hard enough to keep focused when they're only directly involved with the play for about half the game, but with her neurodiversities it can be much more difficult for Ana to stay focused. One way that she does this is by keeping up an internal monologue of how the plays are going so that she can more easily identify when rushes are beginning for the other team. When a bad goal does happen, she's lucky enough to have encouraging defenders who help her mind get reset and ready for the next play. Over the years, she's generally had more troubles with gaining confidence in her own abilities than being overconfident. As for teammates, what she finds most helpful for maintaining her focus is to keep up vocal communication throughout the game so that there aren't miscommunications on defending rushes and defensive zone plays. Doing that gives her a better chance to not overlook any open players and being able to manage her reactions to shots correctly.

ShadowFenix · 11-03-2024, 05:40 PM

Option 2:

During warmups, Shadow Fenix helps his goalie warm up by shooting pucks directly at their head. Most goalies don't like this; they want you to keep it low and easy to save. That's exactly the entire point though, hear me out. By taking shots that will anger the goalie, you're helping them warm up keeping their emotions in check. Shadow Fenix knows this, and his goalies know it too, so they can't get very mad at him. It does help that Fenix is a terrible shot during warmups, so although he's aiming for the head, he ends up tossing it into the pads. In hindsight, now that I'm writing this, maybe that is why the goalies don't get mad at him for this strategy. Regardless, something must be working because the goalies on the Argonauts don't freak out. They're very good about staying calm and keeping a level head. I think it's because of Fenix and his warmups.
