Dejana Kaptina isn't opposed to being in a movie, it's a few extra bucks for like 2 seconds of screentime, why not? Yeah she's got no acting experience and is more of an introvert but hey, the movie's being made with profit in mind, two can play at that game. In a hockey comedy movie (you can't really write a serious story without really knowing the source material, let's be real), she will be playing a role sort of similar to Coach Beard from Ted Lasso. The straight-man (ironic given that she's a queer woman) assistant coach that has more brains than the actual, sorta goofy head coach. Basically the only person on the coaching staff with a functional brain while the head boss sputters around knowing what the hell he's doing tactically while winning the hearts of everyone with his personality. Granted Coach Beard does get a bit more development than that but hey, we're not going 1 to 1 here

Written Option 1: A movie studio decides to make a hockey movie but they are more focused on making money so people in charge of the movie and actors starring in it know nothing about hockey. It just so happens that your player is offered a role as hockey advisor for minimal compensation but they get to make a cameo at some point during the movie. What is the movie like, what kind of tone are they going for? How would your player like working there and how much would they get fixated on to things exactly right? And of course most importantly what kind of cameo does your player have in the movie?
Conveniently enough one of Oskar's all time favorite movies is Miracle, a hockey movie about the underdog upset of the Soviet Union by team USA in the 1980 Olympics. It's hammed up a bit with some Disney magic, but it still captures the excitement of the sport well. As a hockey advisor Oskar would suggest a lot of the same things that made movies like Miracle, Goon and Mystery Alaska good sports movies. It's easier to teach athletes to act instead of actors to skate, so look for hockey players with good acting ability to play as your main players. You can fill out the non-hockey roles with more notable actors, like coaches, management and significant others. Lastly be sure to throw in enough actual hockey sequences, not just all off ice stuff. As for the cameo, Oskar would love to play the captain for the arch-rival team. The team Iceland to team USA so to speak.

Prompt 2

Late in the season, M’Baku Olubori set the league aflitter with the strangest stat line of the season. In a 6-2 win, Baku finished the game with a little over 19 minutes played, 4 attempted shots, but 0 shots on goal, zero points, 4 giveaways, and a -1 rating. His linemates had a field day, but mostly away from him.

“it was a weird game,” Olubori said in a post game press scrum. “Sometimes you’re feeling it, and sometimes you’re not. I’m not too worried about it. We won, which is what’s most important.”

It started late in the first period, up 1-0, and Baku was wide open in the shot with a pass coming his way for a perfectly clean one timer. He pulled back to slap the puck toward the goalie, but suddenly his stick broke, sending the puck ineffectually to a defender. The game didn’t get much better from there. Olubori was in the right place, but weird things kept happening. On the one goal scored against with him on the ice, he came on for a line change and immediately caught a rut, going flying. That left an opposing forward wide open for a long pass and a breakaway. Olubori never had a chance.

The game MVP, Thomas Liebold, could only laugh during his media appearance.

“He should have had a goal early, but sometimes, it’s just not your game. We’re gonna give him a hard time, and hopefully it never goes like this again.”

It's late in the third period. We're playing Kelowna, a notorious rival for us this season, started when Kelowna's own players began shit posting about Vancouver. The score is tied 2-2, the goalies are showing up this game and making life hell for the forwards. Vancouver gets the puck, and is advancing it up the ice, when suddenly a sneaky Kelowna player manages to force a turnover in the neutral zone.

Kelowna advances the puck into our zone, and a barrage of shots is unleashed on the poor goalie in Vancouver. But this isn't the first time Trent's seen this barrage, and he's been ready for this all season. 6 shots are rattled off in quick succession, and all are masterfully turned away by Vancouver's captain. The puck kicks out to Hans Gronlund, who's been having something of a renaissance this season, having fully stepped into his role on these new look Whalers.

A quick pass up the ice to the Whaler's star winger, Aaron Noxus, and the breakout for Vancouver has begun. Noxus pushes the puck past a Kelowna defender, and fires a shot hard at the Kelowna goalie, who manages to get a pad on it just in time. But luck is not on the Kelowna goalie's side, and the puck rebounds harshly off their pad, and kicks out to the blue line, where Hans Gronlund is waiting.

He sees the puck coming towards him.

He lines it up.

It's a big one timer, FROM THE BLUE LINE.

The puck sails past the Kelowna goaltender.

Vancouver wins 3-2. Their rivals are defeated.

Written Option 2

During one of the last games of the season, my player made the highlight reel by blocking 5 shots in a row, all back to back without a single break. First, he took a wrist shot to the shin. No big deal, shake it off and then get back. Immediately after, the puck went to that same forward who wound up with a slap shot which went right off my foot. Still in a bit of pain, I did not have time to think as I got back up just in time to see a puck fly right at my chest. Down on the ice at this point, I then felt a puck hit my arm and I was wondering if someone had it out for me. I was ready to give up, but knowing how important this game was for the team I, maybe stupidly, put my face right in front of their player's stick and I took a puck right to the mouth. The replay was being played all night by teammates, who enjoyed a lot of laughs while I was left with two teeth missing.

Option 2

My player doesn't usually make the highlight reels as he is a defenseman and those kinds of things are often reserved for the stars of the team. But this season he made a play that will definitely be on the league's season highlight reel. During the final meeting of the season against the rival New England Wolfpack, he made a pass that passed in the gap between the skate blade and skate not once but twice during a play in front of the net to score the GWG in OT. Doing a play like that once is hard enough considering the small if not tiny gap between skate and skate blade but doing it twice in the same play is like winning the lottery and powerball on the same day. I'll be honest, league and prompt aside if any NHL player made a play like that during a game, passing it twice between the skate gap I think I would agree to instant elevation to the HOF.

Written Option 2: During one of the last games of the season your player manages to pull of a performance that will be remembered for years to come, the replay that will be making it to all highlight reels for the season, something that might be too unbelievable for a movie. Maybe it is most incredible sequence of saves that have ever been recorded? Most incredible goal? Winning 3 on 1 fight? Goalie goal on another goalie? Is it display of extreme luck, skill or good mix of both? Describe the what happens on ice and what leads to it. How was your player feeling afterwards? Do the opponents involved make it even more special?

I am an extremely calm person, never wanting to show too many highs or too many lows. The only time you are going to see Campbell lose his mind celebrating would be winning the whole thing. If it is a regular season winner, while it would be exciting, the celebration would be very subdued. I know that is disappointing, but having a father who played in the league and won basically everything a player can win taught Campbell to never get too high, so you don’t allow yourself to get too low. Stay in the middle so the mind is always ready to pounce on the next opportunity to be great. That is all out the window however if it is for a championship. That is when everyone is allowed to feel the joy of all the incredibly hard work that goes into winning it all. At the end of the day, you have to have fun with it. It is a game after all!

Option 2:

Man, what a rush. A couple of games ago I pulled off, easily, the best play of my career. It was almost an out of body experience actually completing it. It's been replayed everywhere and on every sports highlight show. I've never had anything like this happen to me, especially as a defenceman. Let me try and break this play down for you, although watching it will give it way more justice.

The play starts with the opposing forward skating the puck into the offensive zone. I skate over, lift their stick and crush them into the boards. From there, I pick up the puck and weave through into the neutral zone. The first player there to stop me fails as I deke the puck through his legs and enter the offensive zone. I spin around the next defender and then absolutely break the ankles of the last defender until it's just the goalie. Now, I have no idea what got into me, but I decided to channel my inner Marek Malik and go between the legs and roof the puck top corner. I'll never accomplish anything as good as this play.

Written Option 1:

Nathangus McExplosion is attending the latest big hockey flick movie filming, MVPEEL. The movie is about an eel playing hockey and making everyone happy. The eel is played by @hotdog Phillipe Eko Eel which is a real hockey player of the Atlanta Inferno. Nathangus is on set to explain other actors what is hockey and how to have passion in hockey. Also hes there to choregraph the hockey parts of it because the Eel is not a very spectacular hockey player and needs some cinematographic moves, a la mcpiep. Nathangus is a very bad actor and gets to be a cameo of the eel's mother in the movie. Its funny because he dresses as a female eel and is proudly cheering for her son phillipe in the stands while getting drunk and cursing the refs. Typical hockey movie amiright! The movie ends when the eel wins the cup, which made me leak a tear from my eyes. Nothing gets me more emotional than winning the cup.
