Written 1:

With the division title on the line it is likely if Cale were to get into a scrap it would be with Philippe-Eko Eel @hotdog both of these players are fierce competitors and know what winning the division will mean for them Atlanta knocked them off the top last season and this season it has been a battle back and forth to finalize that playoff seeding. Being that these two compete against each other in the IIHF as well it should be no surprise they have some bad blood and would square off when push came to shove during a battle late in the game. In this aspect I assume that Cale would come out on top of the fight seeing and Philipee-Eko Eel is indeed an eel and has no arms to be able to fight back. The only chance at a lost would be if they were to cheap shot Cale with their stick or something before the gloves were really dropped.

It’s close to playoff time, and if there’s anything that Ace Lightning knows how to do, it’s pull the absolute most out of a team who, on paper, have no reason to still be in the fight. Last season, he willed his Toronto teammates all the way to game 7 of the Eastern Conference finals as a bad team, and with Baltimore this year, he’s doing his best once again. Lightning wears his heart on his sleeve and knows all the buzz words to help push his teammates over the edge and get everything they can possibly get out of each other. He makes the team watch “Slap Shot” over and over again on team flights for extra motivation. They also stop practicing hockey related things and only focus on yoga and reiki in order to build that inner peace and a strong core. It really helps.

Written option 1:

It's our last game of the regular season versus the Great Falls Grizzlies. With a win we'd finish at the top of the standings for the third season in a row. The Grizzlies on the other hand need a win to avoid finishing dead last. On paper it looks lain plain sailing for us, but they brought their A-game and play with pride and loads of aggression. I'm facing a winger called Ben on my left side every other shift and although he's a bit of a featherweight, he's constantly trying to stir up something and keeps poking at our goalie after whistles. A bit of facewashing here, a bit of chirping there, nothing unusual. But the longer the game goes and the more we're struggling to get a clear lead, the more he's also annoying me. After a shot on goal that's also a clean save for our Ela (and one he couldn't tip), he pushes her into the net. And then it happens - I had enough of it. I grab him by the back of his jersey and drag him a feet away from the linesmen, then drop the gloves. I'm not proud of it since I'm quite a bit taller and heavier, but lessons needed to be taught. I wish I could use the old "that guy took about 15 good ones" quote, but credit where credit is due - he also got a couple decent ones in when he dodged and came close enough. We both got 5 and I got the instigator - a price worth paying.

Written 2: Langston actually did get into a fight this season so to be honest this works pretty well. The Aurora may be the last team into the playoffs from the West, but their road may have made them stronger than ever. Take for example a very heated game against the rival San Francisco Pride. We know we are gonna be playing them again in the first round. As team captain, Langston often feels the need to be more involved in sticking up for teammates to lead by example. After the whistle, a scrum broke out around Carpet by the net, Langston saw someone cross check Juan Tymer. So Langston did the only logical thing: he skated over and Superman punched the offender. The punch was basically ineffective and the fight carried on from there. eventually Langston connected with a nice right handed uppercut and sent his opponent to the ice. Langston still has no idea who he fought, only that he is getting a lot more boos in San Francisco, but that is just music to his ears and SF remains one of his favorite away spots.

Written Option 2:

Spaceman spiff is in a tough spot compared to this point last season. Last season, he was the captain of the playoff bound Ottawa Highlanders, leading the team both on and off the ice. This season, the fish has moved into a much larger pond and has found that he's the smallest fish around. A rookie, on a team of leaders, has no option but to chip in when and where he can. Sometimes on the ice (although less than he'd like) and sometimes in the locker room. Unfortunately Edmonton is far from the playoffs at this point and only playing for a better draft pick and pride. As one of the smaller fish Spiff puts his head down and works as hard as he can. He isn't the fastest or the strongest, or anything but if can work harder than the rest maybe he can close that skill gap and contribute more when it matters. Hopefully, his example will inspire the others to try their best to outwork Spiff.

I can't really imagine Mary Hollywood ever fighting somebody. To date, she has been in zero fights ever. Just not really up her alley. Thus, if she were to be in a fight, it would no doubt be the result of someone taking offense to Mary's antics and jumping her, forcing Mary to throw a couple punches in defense. One can only imagine that something like the following situation might occur.

Mary Hollywood receives the puck on a quick zone entry. She uses her dazzling speed and insufferable charm to mesmerize the opposing defense and deftly handle the puck. With great ease, she gets around the incompetent and washed-up Willow Soderberg-Snooks. Willow blows a tire and falls flat on her ass, leaving Mary with an easy peasy one on one with the goalie. Immediate Manhattan goal, Mary pulls out her vape, blows a fat cloud, and Willow gets all annoyed and jumps her.

That would probably be Mary's only fight.

Quote:Written Option 1: During the end of season push your player ends up in a fight. In what game the fight would take place and who do you think they would be fighting? Do they start it themselves or maybe their opponent jumps them? Is either party doing it to wake up their team or are they just pissed at the other one? How does the fight go, does your player win? Were they prepared for kt and would they fight fair? How does the fight impact the rest of the game?

The stakes are a bit lower for Atlanta than a lot of other teams at the end of this season, given that the Inferno are safely in a playoff position. Plus, my player has one of the highest TPEs on the team; we really can’t afford to have him sitting in the box for five minutes.

The only conceivable way I can think of for Jae-ik Barron fighting in an end of season game is in defense of a teammate, if an opponent takes liberties with one of the Inferno players and it’s down to him to step in. He’s not a small player, though I guess that’s pretty common for SHLers since there’s no disincentive to making your height and weight as large as possible.

The fight, were it to happen, would probably end in a stalemate. I’ve had my players involved in fights a few times over the course of my SHL career, and I don’t know if I’ve ever seen them win. It just seems that I don’t build players that do well in fights. I guess there are worse things to be bad at!

At this point of the season the playoff seedings are almost pretty much set, so for those teams that are no longer in the hunt - like the Seattle Argonauts that have had a late surge to assure themselves of making the post season - right now it is about balancing that edge between too much practice and too little practice. To keep the team from tensing up too much, Will Tomlander holds cookouts and barbeques to loosen everyone up and keep things relaxed. That is a better approach he has found than practicing too much and over thinking things coming into the playoffs. This also lets team chemistry build off the ice so everyone is more familiar with one another, and promotes team bonding. Making it so everyone feels closer to one another is better, as this means that you become more willing to give it all for your team mate that you know better, rather than some stranger.

Alexandros despite being one of the fight adverse players on the team has a tendency to fight more then most on the team and I am 100% sure I am not starting them. I would likely get into a fight after hitting the other teams star player and they just didn’t like that. As to which game, this season Chicago has been in a big rivalry with NOLA, so I believe it would be against them to see if we could get momentum for second in the division. Now once again Alexandros does not start fights, so he had no reason for this fight but I am sure NOLA wants that end of the season momentum. As to who would win, I would like to enthusiastically tell you I have not won a fight in my SHL career, with this in my I can also confidently say this fight wouldn’t change that. As much as id like to say id win a fight for my team that wouldn’t happen, I would get my butt kicked and then use the huggers the syndicate share to boost morale afterwards. :huggers:

Jennifer is not typically not much of a fighter, but things always get chippy when Calgary plays Edmonton. With Edmonton eliminated from the playoffs, they decided to take cheap shots at the Calgary players. After Olafur Atlason hit Anna Skovgaard with a high shot, Jen knew the only thing she could do was fight to defend Calgary’s honor. Now Jennifer is 5’11 and Olafur is 6’4, so it’s not the best idea for Jen to fight him, but it’s something she feels she has to do. When they both drop the gloves, the fight honestly does not last long. Olafur absolutely ragdolls Jen, and she lands a couple shots but it’s a very one sided loss for her. However, Jennifer’s loss inspires the Dragons to fight harder on the ice, and while the game was tied when the fight happened, Calgary ended up with the win. Jen was just happy she was able to do her part to spark the team.
