QUEBEC CITY CITADELLES

VS

NEWFOUNDLAND BERSERKERS

The S64 SMJHL finals are upon us, and we will see the Newfoundland Berserkers face off against the Quebec City Citadelles for the Four-Star Cup. As is tradition, these finals will come with a bunch of TPE available for you guys, in the form of Championship Week!

Here's how this will work: there are several tasks, each of which is worth varying amounts of TPE for putting in a little effort, for a maximum of 16 possible TPE total. You can complete them in any order and do as few or as many as you would like.

ONLY S64 SMJHL ROOKIES (S65 SHL DRAFTEES) CAN EARN TPE FOR CW TASKS. If you signed after the trade deadline and are going into the S65 SMJHL Draft, that's not you.

You may claim affiliation from an (one, 1) WSBL, ISFL or PBE PT this season for a max of 3 TPE.

Code:
Task #1 - 3 TPE 

If you weren't playing for your current team, which team would you most like to be playing for in the playoffs.  Explain why you chose that team and how you think you'd slot into their roster.  Would your player make a big impact on the team?  Would you improve their chances of winning a cup?  

Requirements:  150+ words. 

Code:
Task #2 - 3 TPE (graphic only)

The finals are always a great time for SHL hopefuls to get their name on the map. Make a hockey magazine cover regarding a specific player in the finals, either rookie or send-down, to hype them up.

Requirements:

- WRITTEN: Write a 100 word blurb about the item, including details on during which game was / will be given out.

Task #5 - 3 TPE

Professional hockey players are among the luckiest members of a community, but not everyone is given the same opportunities. As such, many players are expected to give back to the community by volunteering their time and energy off the ice with various charitable organizations.
