Written option 2:
Jauhnne Hawky does have a social media account, it is kind of hard to not have one nowadays, but he does not use it all the time. He heavily curates his experience online, there is a lot of nasty people online, both in regards to his team's current seasonal performance as well as in general, and he really does not want that kind of energy in his life. No use getting worked on what someone he does not even know thinks about him. He does use social media to keep up with friends and family, as it can be difficult to actually see them in person with his constant training and travelling all season, and it is nice to keep in touch. He does try to interact with fans on occasion, doing Q and A's during slower parts of the season or offseason, or thanking them for their continued support for the team.

Written Option 2:

Javelin is infamous for having several burner accounts on social media. He thinks he's being sneaky, but they are incredibly obvious, and the usernames are much too close to his real name to have plausible deniability. Javelin is greatly impacted by what is said about him online by the fans and those alike. He has a really tough time when people online criticize him for his game or for who he is as a person. One time, Javelin accidentally responded to a fan under his real account, and there was a firestorm from the media about his response. He has since been a lot more careful about what accounts he's using and has tried to take a step back from social media in general. Social media can be a nasty habit and a lot of times impacts the mental health of athletes negatively. Javelin really wished that fans were nicer and more understanding that players are people too.

On game day I try to not look a social media at all since it could very be a distraction to my game and I need to be 100% focus when I play.

The only time I'm looking at it, it's when we are travelling and I have some time to spare between the destinations. Of course I use it with my friend, but I don't look at what people are saying about my game before almost all the time it's either not positive or it's not about things I can change or have an impact on.

People are a lot on it and I think it's a little bit of a problem. Young players like myself are too much on their cell phones and that's now a problem so I'm trying to avoid it completely. Good for them if it's doesn't affect their performance, but me me it does.

Barca and salad are lining up this season and almost their entire playing time they have been on the same team. This year Salad came back to join Barca at the blue line. There is a bit less of a requirement for speed and as both are getting older it is a bit easier to manage the shifts and shorter bursts of speed. Their chemistry is unbelievable and out of this world. From many many years of growing up together, playing together, and living together these two have managed to develop a mental connection rivaled only by twins.
They know each other in depth, and some would say in a biblical way. They do everything together from tying each other's laces when they need that extra push, to the good old fashioned eiffel tower. Hell, they even share a massive house with their own wings. Their kids are basically siblings and will probably end up togehter - kinda gross, but also legal? I don't think that really makes it any better though.

Written Option 1

What has made Petr's career has been playing on competitive teams for his entire career, to which he owes a great deal. He may have had a quite high peak in terms of his own personal skill level, but it's his seasons on Texas producing high chemistry relations that has given his late years in his career life. The Renegades core has stayed together for much of Petr's time in Texas, and this has paid dividends, who was on pace for 30 goals for much of the season in this, his 16th SHL season that has seen him cross both the 1000 game and 1000 point threshold, and approach striking distance of the 500 goals milestone. This all the results of his on-ice relationship with his teammates however. Off-ice is an entirely different story, as Petr has little connection with those who aren't as Czechia enthused as he has. He has a one-track mind, so you either agree and synergize with him off the ice, or he is an off-putting presence.

As a player, Robo Sven tries to keep a healthy distance from the noise on social media. While it’s impossible to completely avoid what’s being said, he doesn’t actively seek it out. In fact, he doesn't have to since he has a live updating feed of everything being said about him at all times in his HUD. So he is hyper aware that people talk both positively and negatively about him all the time. It can be tough to ignore, but he tries to use it as motivation to improve and change the narrative about mechanically augmented athletes. He is always aiming to be a frontrunner and advocate for the surgeries that he's gotten, showing people that it's possible to stay human, even if the only human part you have left is your brain and your moustache. Someday, the SHL will be full of robotic superathletes putting on the best show possible for the enjoyment of the fans.

Written Option 1: Hockey is ultimate teamsport and who you are on ice with often can be more impactful than your own skill to the end results. So who are your players linemates, defensive pair or other half of the goalie tandem? Have they been playing together for long and reached very high chemistry or are they still building towards that? Do they help out each other during the practice? Do they spend time with each other outside of the rink or is it strictly professional relationship?

Alexandros has the joy of being on the Chicago Syndicate but also the rough turbulations that go with it as Chicago has been going through a rebuild the last 5 or so seasons and he is the first person at the front of that rebuild from before it was considered as such. To say it has been a tough go building chemistry as you add in several new players each season is an understatement but we believe most of the pain is behind us. As for who those wonderful new linemates are? First off, we have Ho Lee-Smokes a defensive juggernaut on the blueline and Sad Ketchup a sniper of pure skill that looks to be a 40-50 + goal scorer for many seasons. Cal Juice who had a pop of season leading the team in points and Leo Roze who looks to be following in Ho’s footsteps and had a strong defensive season in second. Then 3rd we brought in Karter Mandenhall and Jordan Bamford to round out the troop who have started the chemistry. Then last but not least we have Dave Heinrich who has been a calming veteran presence and a whole group of new players we just brought in this season. There is so much more growth it feels like I cant say enough for all of them.

Violet's linemates are @micool132 Nathangus McExplosion (hopefully I spelled that correctly) and the veteran Shoyo Hinata, who I'm pretty sure entered the SMJHL when Violet was in diapers. It's a really interesting line for its diversity -- Violet is just in her second season with Atlanta while Nathangus is a rookie, and Shoyo is in her 15th-ish season but is right around the same TPE mark. She had a chance to primarily line with the Lavoies last season, so there has been relatively little time to form chemistry, though thankfully to this point they've been a decent line. Frankly, given the line's current position they're likely pleased that they're net-positive despite the dreadful luck (PDO of 98 for the centerwoman), which is a testament to the line's overall skill and quick gelling. The two neophytes on the line have spent a little time together hanging out and at team functions, while Shoyo (being like 15-20 years older than them both) acts as the cool mentor who has plenty of wisdom to dispense but probably doesn't do all of the non-mandatory camp and training nonsense.

Ever since Chris made the transition to offense, Valentine and Diehm have been stapled together on the first line in Texas. And they've enjoyed a strong run near the top of Goal and Assist leader boards throughout that time. It does, however, seem like all of Diehm's assist come from feeding Valentine, but Valentine's assist aren't inflating Diehm's goal total; riddle me this! Along the way, the duo has been supported by a seasonally rotating star on the other wing: from Meowski to Tree to Wolf king. Diehm has been especially fond of Wolf's physical gameplay, though the youngster wasn't quite able to overtake Diehm in the Hits category this season. The trio is still working on getting Wolf involve more in the scoring, and some special hurdles late in the season. But with the strong off-the-ice friendship between Diehm and Valentine, they're confident things will get back on track as everyone locks in for another playoff challenge.

Prompt 1

At this point of his career, M’Baku Olubori has strong chemistry with many of his teammates, to the point many teammates hope they can play with him (because then they all perform better). Erik Bergmark in particular was disappointed when he found out Baku would not be his center this season—since his longest time linemate, Adrian O’Rugg, retired, Bergmark has seen himself have the zenith of his career with Baku as his center. Last season, as this one, Baku started off centering the 3rd line with sophomore Brandon Gilleyes and rookie Inge Baardsen. By midseason, however, Baku had moved up to center Bergmark, and both took off offensively.

This season, that did not happen. Baku started and finished the season with the Gilleyes-Baardsen duo, as both saw improvements—Baardsen had a career season offensively (13-39-52), while Gilleyes saw career highs in goals (21) and game winners (4) flanking the veteran Olubori. Beyond the counting stats, Olubori helps bring a calming presence to the young players as they continue to develop their games. It’s fair to expect a big jump in S80 for the young wingers, whether or not they play alongside the Nigerian during his 13th SHL season.

Bergmark, while learning how to play with newest Platoon member, Peter Tingle, had a career low for goals (28) and his lowest offensive output since the S72 season. He was still effective, but not always the gamebreaking scorer we’ve come to expect from the Baltimore captain.

Written Option 2: Social media is part of the everyday life wanted we it or not, and thus it is easier than ever before to find what people are thinking and writing about you. How much does your player follow what is written or talked about them around the internet? Is it mostly positive or negative? Do they interact with said media and if they do how? Maybe they are starting the conversations themselves to get more attention?

The way I handle social media is pretty simple. Never search my name or check the comments. There is just too much hate in this world that I have no interest in partaking in the thoughts of the keyboard warriors. I do interact with fans, but it is strictly on an in-person kind of thing. My social media is to push the team I am on right now and get more people out to the games, or to talk about anything I may be doing so my real fans know where to find me. My favorite one is the multiple trips to the children’s hospital I take every year. Those are the things that fill my timeline and the majority of posts. I do not post anything with my family, as it is not something I want out there. My kids don’t need to be subjected to all the hate that for some reason children of athletes get, same with my wife.

S61 Four Star Cup - Game-Winning Goal in the clinching Game 4

***Ohtaay*** · 11-09-2024, 02:48 PM

Option 1:
I have had an interesting journey with the bond and chemistry I’ve built with my teammates. Starting off in junior high, I played for Regina, a team that went all in at the start of my career there. However, the team then went through a mini rebuild, bringing in new players and linemates, which required me to rebuild that chemistry from scratch. After that season ended, I was traded to Maine. With the trade, I played on a line with other new players who were also acquired that season. We were all building new chemistry within a fresh lineup. It ended up working out great, as I went on to win the Four-Star Cup.

This past season, I was called up to Seattle, which is a rebuilding team with many young players. This led to frequent line changes throughout the season, as I played with new teammates and learned new systems. By the end of the season, I was mostly playing with Steel Flex and a rotating winger, depending on the team's strategy for any given stretch of games. Moving forward, I hope to continue developing strong chemistry with my teammates and linemates.
